The only thing I'm honestly looking forward to is the possibility of cemeteries and graveyards making a return (I hope that's what the gravestones indicate). Otherwise, I'm not really excited about this announcement. I also don't care for the idea of bowling having its own stuff pack (it could've easily been included in 'Get Together' or 'City Living'). I'd much rather see a sports themed game/expansion pack that features bowling, baseball, soccer, etc. At least it would include more things to do. Better yet, why not create a hobbies themed game/expansion pack that includes sports and other things? It seems like a complete waste to just make a stuff pack about bowling... they should at least include a bowling alley venue. There would be no point if they don't.
Maybe it wasn't part of those packs because people like you didn't play with bowling, so, this way, those that want bowling can buy it and those that don't can avoid it.
I never said I didn't play with bowling (I actually did in previous games). I'm just disappointed that it's going to be its own stuff pack when it could've easily been included with another pack. I think it would be fun to have my Sims bowl, but I'm not so sure if a $10 bowling pack is worth the price.
I see your point. For me, anything that gets my sims out and about is all good.
We will probably get an alley. But it will be an object.
I don't think they would add a new venue tipe in SP.
I'd prefer to get the bowling objects and allow us to use them on any existing venue type -- you could have a bowling alley in a park, for example (indoor or outdoor), or a bar with some lanes in the basement, or even a 50s style diner restaurant with a bowling alley. Just make sure the objects (bowling lanes) are programmed so Sims on the lot will use them.

So what do you think the new vampire world will be? Transimvania?
I may take over the (hopefully spooky) destination hood and make it where my Rocky Horror peeps live. "There's a light (over at the Frankenstein place) there's a liiiiiigggggghhhhttt.........
I really hope that we will get a new world with the vampire game pack, everybody seems to be talking about a new world with a dracula building. But is that confirmed or is there evidence?
There was some mention of a possible world in the game files. We're not entirely sure if it's like Granite Falls (destination world) or an actual liveable world.

Is there a new world? Is that confirmed?
We know there's some kind of neighborhood or world being introduced in the gamepack, it's mentioned in the text they found for the pack splash screen that's in the game files.
I hope so. Singing didn't end up being a club activity, so I'm not assuming anything till packs are out.
Yes it is o.O. I have several clubs with singing as an activity. No mods for it.
Maybe it was Karaoke that wasn't? I'll admit I'm going on what other Simmers have said about this.

Oh cool! I mean I hope it's not like the one in GTW though

I would hope that it's a spooky neighborhood with a few lots that my other vampires can live on while serving the Ancient One.
Exited for Vampire GP, a lot, especially with vampires with the ability for them to turn to bats! Hopefully it works like in TS2 rather than a 2 second interaction-animation, we'll see.
Bowling meh. Should not have been put into a SP. Just not worth it tbh. I don't see how I would want to buy a pack with a single gameplay object and it's bowling, it's very specific, idk.
I see my sims getting more out of a bowling pack then a vampire pack. I'm looking forward to that pack more than vampires.

IDK I might end up buying both tbh guess it depends on the content. But vampires for me is a must.
I really don't care for the vampire thing. Don't get me wrong, I will buy it. I doubt if I will use it beyond build stuff. But you never know. The bowling looks fun.

Maybe the bowling pack is like freetime with a few different things. Who knows!
As bowling alleys close across the country, The Sims team thinks this is the right time for a bowling alley game pack. So ahead of their time!
*Where you live.
Mostly. Still some in more rural towns, but I live in a cluster of decently sized cities and I can't remember the last time I saw an open bowling alley.
I live in a pretty large city and bowling is quite popular (along with laser quest), especially amongst teens.
I really don't care for the vampire thing. Don't get me wrong, I will buy it. I doubt if I will use it beyond build stuff. But you never know. The bowling looks fun.
You know you will eventually find out if that bat flies. Or if vampires sleep in a bed or in an actual grave. Or if headstones (in buy mode) make vampires appear. Muhahahaha

So vampires and bowling that should of been in City Living are now sold separately got to love Sims 4.
"should have been" is only your opinion. Maybe they divided them out so people wouldn't have stuff forced on them that they complained about last time.

maybe there will be finally an actual cemetry
but meantime i wouldn't be surprised if a cemetry will be another stuff pack or game pack, that is as long it is not too hard & too expensive to make
& yeah, i don't think this bat can fly, i think that's just a gimmick to scare other sims & that's it
isn't that how TS4 is, just show ?
anyway
fine that some people are excited
i am very happy not to buy anything anymore for TS4
just waiting here how the show goes on
i won't be participating in the forums & the gallery anymore - thanks EA

Or maybe they divided them out for extra cash $20 game pack $10 stuff pack and we got a empty expansion funny you think they care about the players.
Sims 4 went from "You Rule" to "One of the stories we want you to tell"

Do you plan to make a bat bowling alley Cine? LOL
No, lol, but Maggie Evans may get snatched one night leaving the bowling alley, she goes back in to get her purse, the place closes, viola big bat in her head.

I just hope it's fairly large... More lots are always needed...

Singing is a club activity. It's under Art & Music.
