  • I'm indifferent. My computer can't handle a whole new sims game, first of all. Also I *just* spent all this money getting a bunch of expansion packs and I'm definitely not planning on jumping ship as soon as they drop TS5. I feel like people being the most impatient about TS5 coming out are the same people who are going to…
  • Oh I'm so glad to see it's not just me with the fire. It's got to be a recent glitch, right? I was playing maybe a week or two ago and it wasn't happening, and now every sim regardless of cooking skill or what they're using to cook is setting the kitchen on fire. It's infuriating, especially since the sim I'm playing right…
  • I voted for children. It's obvious babies are the most underdeveloped life stage, but I know they're supposedly getting an overhaul and I also personally don't really care that much. But kids have so much potential! I do think they have some cute interactions, especially lately, but I want them to be able to have…
  • I'm not sure if this is just a me problem, but it seemed to start right after I bought high school stories and wedding stories. My sims, even with super high cooking skills, seem to be setting their (expensive) stove on fire every single time they cook? It happens in all households, all stoves, BBQs, etc. I use mods but I…
  • Yes, prom is literally the most disappointing thing I've experienced in TS4 so far. I really like what it could be, but the time limitation is absurd. My sim has gone twice (I guess to compensate for it not lasting long, you get to go every week?) and both times she was able to do half of one thing (i.e. walk to the punch…
  • YES. I just got high school stories last night and have been to prom twice already with the same sim, and she has only been able to grab food and dance for a second. Can't even get to the photo booth because by the time she walks to it they're already starting the ceremony and she gets pulled to watch. This is the only…
  • this topic completely bewilders me in countless ways. What exactly is 'manly' in the context of sims? -More stereotypically masculine clothing and hairstyles? Okay. I definitely think there needs to be a larger variety in CAS in all cases. I want more CAS for all gender identities. There should be more body hair! (I don't…
  • I haven't really been following the Paralives development. I don't play a lot of games (read: any) besides the sims, and I am very loyal, so the idea of me starting a new game is kind of unlikely, but I am vaguely interested. However, I have very, very little interest in MMOs. It gives me anxiety to even think about it.…
  • I miss the ability to schedule events! I don't like that if I want to, say, 'plan a wedding', the wedding has to happen right then and there and all of the sims are instantly transported to the event venue.
  • mostly gameplay for sure, for all ages. I feel like teens have the most possibilities for expansion but it would be nice to have better babies. my favorite life stage (in terms of how fleshed out it is) is toddlers, but the dullest are kids and teens. sleepovers? school events? such basic things that aren't in the game…
  • When my sim had a vet, I literally ended up building an efficiency in the back for her because I was *married* to the job. The whole family practically worked there because I was so invested in it lol. It's a slippery slope.
  • I don't have realm of magic, battu, or half the stuff packs.
  • I just want them to release merch honestly. like in real life merch. pins! anniversary pins.
  • Would vote for this idea over pretty much anything else. This is one of the big things I'm missing. Like a gamepack/anything pack focused on real estate/house flipping/etc would make me absolutely giddy, but I'll also accept a patched in update.
  • I really want new traits, new emotions, and a new death! Think it would only be fitting to get a new death type in a haunted pack! I am overall very excited about this, with only some reservations. I wish it were a *bigger* pack, but I'm just being greedy. I never felt like the Spooky Stuff pack was worth it, so this…
  • hoping for new traits?! very excited. I do wish this were a GP/EP but my wallet is pleased it's only a stuff pack!
  • Did way better than I anticipated as I haven't seen this movie in far too long! Your Score: 88% Columbia Pictures You're a True Expert! You got 28 correct out of 32! You scored better than 30% of quiz takers.
  • Island Living is the Good Surprise for me. I thought I'd just end up using it more like a destination than a main world, and while the idea of mermaids was cool to me it wasn't like...a driving feature for me. But I am absolutely in love with the world! I think it's really well fleshed out, and quite beautiful. I love…
  • Both, but I am not a good builder, so I mostly play
  • MAC literally out here selling likely expired palettes with a box they got printed at the local office store lol. I don't use the word 'cringe' but if I did, this is...literally the textbook definition. I didn't even see the sims/ea promote it? Like it was never on their IG or anything? and now MAC took the palette back…
  • My real answer is that they simply need to be more discerning with their collaborations, but I went with Yes. I'd rather see no collaborations than experience the amount of secondhand embarrassment I'm still burning with from the MAC collab. Also, I feel like - I play sims as an ALTERNATIVE universe. I don't need…
  • 1. Parenthood - I think?? I honestly don't remember what the game was like without it. I do like the parenting skill though, so if that was introduced by Parenthood it's #1. 2. Strangerville - ok so I was actually pretty disappointed in SV. but I love the world?? and I love what it COULD have been. 3. Vampires - I feel…
  • not something I'd ever think I wanted, but definitely unique so I'd be interested
  • I still haven't purchased Eco Living, and did not know about said meat wall :D I guess they decided it would be a creative/futuristic/dystopian way to implement sourcing 'meat' without actually adding farming components? If meat could be...grown instead of killing animals for it? I would...probably try it. I'd been…
  • LGR is literally the only YouTuber I'll watch reviews from, and this is a total bummer, but we all saw it coming. It does have to be exhausting to keep rehashing the same thing over and over.
  • Feel like once they start realizing how low the sales are on the Star Wars pack, they're gonna put everything on sale to try to comp their losses
  • Not in TS4, no thanks. Any kind of space expansion in TS4 is gonna be like...oh! You went in the rocket ship rabbit hole, and now you approach another rabbit hole! This one is for, uhh...the moon! Do you...walk on the moon or...go back...into your space ship thing??? And then the one actual visitable lot is a bar.
  • So I am a HUGE Harry Potter fan. I do not want HP in my Sims. I do not want *any* thing that I like to be in the Sims. If I want to play a HP game, I will get a HP game. Maybe Sims could do like a side thing where they did a whole HP Sims game? But I don't want it like...half-done in my game. Trying to merge something that…
