My Wedding Stories Livestream Discussion (Livestream Today)

Comments
- The dresses and suits...dear god...The creases, wrinkles, low-quality textures, and bland colours didn't do it for me (not to mention the 20 dresses for female sims vs. the 12 suits for the males...)
- Still "cooking" cakes, huh?
- The cake was glitched when cut to feed to each other. It showed it as cut for a frame or two, then back to a full cake.
- The "cut cake" interaction failed. Who's surprised at this point?
- Ah, a beach lot...I know a world just dying for one of those...
- No attraction system, perhaps we might get like/dislikes related to the weddings, but they didn't show any of it, if so.
- Take a shot everytime she says "lore".
- The tea set animation hurt to watch, not to mention the design. Hopefully it was just them using an awful quality in their game.
- The little flowers in the "necklaces" section. Can't wait for townies to spawn with those...
- The lack of activities in the setup menu for the wedding. Reminds me of a similar feature in need of more activities...*cough* holidays *cough*
All in all...meh. I wasn't planning on buying it anyway (not at full price, and not until Russia got it), but this did its job in making it a "pass" for me. Was hoping to hear more about the upcoming patch, but very little was said about it. I was hoping there was a new "church" venue for cult plays and such, but I suppose I got what I expected...very little.Ah well, back to it.
It was cute that the Flower Pal and the guests did react to the actual marriage event. 🙂
Still watching livestream in between chores, so I’ll have to see how the slow dancing is, but there does seem to be silly Sim AI or bug moments, lol.

It's not even how much they showed but how they talked about things. As someone who studies marketing I'm usually very unimpressed with those pre-pack livestreams. They either try to hype up the most irrelevant things making it feel like they have barely anything to show, or they talk sounding all bored not trying to sell the fantasy whatsoever.
No offence to the gurus, but being good at creating stuff does not automatically mean you're also good at convincing people that the stuff you create is worth their money. They need to be more selective when choosing livestream hosts
I did love the world and that Dominique and Camille as elders were there. The pack just seems so limited, I'm confused, it felt very small as a game pack.
The livestream was very weird and rushed, almost like there wasn't much to show. I wished that they'd shown us more gameplay, more options.
I didn't get a clear view of the pack with this livestream. I'm definitely going to have to watch few game changers videos about the pack until I decide when to purchase it. The only thing I know is that I want the pack because of Tartosa, it looked gorgeous.
- No information regarding the other events, for example, what makes a Bach party so different from the usual party or using the club feature from Get Together. Are we getting an experience similar to Sims 3 Generations? Dancers, champagne popping, and guests passing out? Also, why would the engaged sim plan their own Bach party, shouldn't the Sim of Honor invite them out?
- Slow dancing, is it tied to the new dance floor or the stereo? I want my sims to be able to slow dance anywhere.
- We never saw the veils or any other accessories.
- Do we need to travel to this world to fully plan our weddings? I saw the flower stall in the catalog but for cake tasting and the wedding boutique will there be a lot we can install in any world?
Hopefully, early access will happen soon and we will find out more. This stream again was lackluster.
Yeah, I wanted to see the officiants too
Yeah he is really good. I think honestly we are so used to simmers who stream professionally now who do it so well, it is just a stark comparison. Most gurus are not professional streamers so of course won't be as good, I can't fault them, they work on the sims which is what they're good at. Some like Graham are naturally good, but most people in general probably aren't. They need to get someone in to lead them, probably who is a professional streamer, who can do a great job at showing off a pack. I should walk away from a stream feeling exited and wanting it immediately, not neutral and still confused as to what the pack actually contains.
I was surprised they didn’t show if there were any veils or such, though. I would have also liked to see what a Bach party and rehearsal dinner party were like, too.
I loved seeing parts of the world and many of the cake options with the cute cake toppers, and a sneak peek at the calendar options, though.
Yeah, I’m still getting this pack, but I feel the Game Changers and YouTubers would show more of the pack, for sure!

My thoughts exactly. Didn’t sound excited about anything. Got the wrong simguru or something. Not to mention how there were things that weren’t covered. Yes, it’s an hour, but quite a bit wasn’t covered, which is a first iirc. Also, not sure why they don’t zoom in at some points. I wanted to see the details up close.
I didn't catch much info I didn't already know but it was lovely seeing the couple dance for longer time and it was nice to see sims don't need to have counter for the tea set to function (now i just need to know if they can pick up the mugs while sitting)
I think gamechangers will anyway go over all of it in more depth tho and there was probably lot of stuff you could dig into if you paused the screen for a bit so someone probably did and I'll just wait for the revelations
world is bigger than i thought actually i was half expecting the big house at back of village center to be annoying deco one but I'm hyped it isn't
I love that sims can make bouquets and carry them wherever whenever and place them down in vase and its not just a wedding thing
I love that you can keep cake topper and add messages
bottled messages sounds fun and its good and at least aisle seems to have blank option so thats neat

The invisible aisle ist a good idea, I was hoping they'd also add an invisible version of the dance floor. This is a missed opportunity.
The slowdancing doesn't look as romantic as in previous interactions, there's too much weird bouncing.
I must admit that the stream disappointed my hopes.
Hopefully the family gatherings will not only be available for engaged couples. I also hope they made it possible to invite all family members of both partners even if the inviting Sim does not know them yet.
100%! I don't know what this says about me or the game but it's rare that I use any packs core features--still have yet to own a cow, go to the spell caster world, and my template save has the Strangerville "saved" from Mother Plant so I never have to play through it again. I'm buying this for the world, which I plan to populate with beautiful lots built by my favorite builders, and continue to do my own thing.
I noticed that even before I ever watched a simmer’s stream though. Like you said, he’s probably naturally good, but some of the others could probably improve if they prepared more. I don’t think all streamers are great at showing packs off either. Some are just great at promoting their social media.
