    @Horrorgirl6 I always try to hope for the best, but I'm a realist that likes to dream. I never get my hopes up..I just dream..for a car :p

    This is well underwelming.Its about dates, and that's it.

    A few more activities would have been nice. I mean, they can already do the dating without the application. Also, who goes on a date to the gym?

    I'm still rather underwhelmed, but then to be fair it probably would have taken a lot to get me excited about this pack, given that the theme isn't one I feel needs developing in my game. Maybe it does have hidden depths that we'll only discover over time. We'll see...

    I think the clothing and furniture shown isn't really speaking to me. I like the colorful dog ornament.

    I know I'll buy it. But not sure yet what to think.

    Omg! Not me unless I'm Ms. OLYMPIAN. Naaay! Look at them men mowing that lawn with their arms spread out cause they got too much muscle. They can't bring those arms close to their bodies...just kinda like sims 4 in a way..
    Still..I love the game. <3

    One of the date activities was board games. I wonder if we will get more board games.

    There is a new board/card type game, it has a laughing and a woohoo emoji on the cover.

    I'll wait for the let's plays, but a romance pack was always going to be a hard sell, as I'm not big into romance in the first place and most of what we've had so far has been very... conventional and samey. The options chosen to show off "create a date" didn't exactly change my mind on that, and we didn't even have a quick scrolldown of other options to find one of these ordinary, conventional options.

    It wasn't very exciting but I think it's going to be a pack that you're going to have to play for a while to actually experience how it expands gameplay.

    I would advise those who are undecided or feeling lukewarm to wait for reviews and Let's Plays.

    Hopefully the Livestream will reveal a lot more.

    Maybe they wanted a safe space because in a park or cafe they were in danger of actually speaking to each other. :smiley:

    The gameplay trailer didn't show anything new in terms of gameplay. I understand how the romance / dating event system works, but what about gameplay objects? Will there be functional dumbbells or not?! How does the costume trunk work exactly, and what about the Risky Couples board game?
    It's understandable that they cannot show everything, although in truth these gameplay trailers are no different to the reveal trailers, except for the extra voiceovers that don't really explain anything at all at all.

    Another thing: Since this is supposed to be Mexico themed, I would have liked to see Mariachi bands playing romantic songs at restaurant tables and ladies that sell roses at traffic stops. Are traditions like that considered offensive stereotyping in this day and age? It just feels a bit bland to me. What's wrong with a bit of old school eh? I don't understand why it had to be Mexico themed if it doesn't really feel "Mexican". But sure look, who knows, I haven't actually seen anything and unless it offers the weird and fantastical, I'm rarely impressed by Sims 4 trailers, and that's only because I'm not the target audience. That's OK. I can live with that.

    Hopefully the livestream will give us more info. I'm sure it will.
    I'm also looking forward to seeing the world map. I like some of the CAS items shown, and as per usual the ladies get the best stuff, however I did notice an interesting male suit in there somewhere.

    Interesting. A room full of sweat released pheromones will certainly attract a mate, or not. It's natural, it's fast. Best place to go for a blind date. Just follow your nose.
    I hope our active sims can lead gym classes, similar to Spa Day's yoga sessions.
    Fingers crossed that catching axolotls and working out with dumbbells are a thing!

    Following my nose!

    *stops at entrance*
    I have vague memory of someone saying something about cheese?

    Follow your nose until you gag! No thank you. I don't need an energy drink from the counter. I'm downing my vomit again. :p

    From what I know about dating at the gym, those guys don't usually call it "dating".
    Don't buy broken stuff

    Awww, before I followed your link I thought you meant we were getting group fitness classes in the pack. I'm disappointed now. I think you owe me a Magnum ice cream for deceiving me like that :D
