Phone addiction and everyone playing videogames is very annoying. Most people I know in life never touch videogames. It's not at all interesting when we're watching them use the phone.
I've found the world itself to be quite beautiful, but the builds and BB items to be ugly and unusable in regular gameplay. Much of the CAS works, but some items won't translate into the real world well. Spellcasters don't bother your gameplay much, but unless you really love magic, they are very bland and…
It depends on your gameplay style. If you like gardening, baking, fishing and cooking, you'll probably love this pack. And I haven't found it very buggy, but, of course, that varies.
I try to build houses based on the fact that stupid sims will do stupid things. So I don't have to micromanage too much, like locking doors to rooms I don't want them going into, having a dishwasher so they don't walk in on dad in the bathroom, no empty spaces on shelves, but empty surfaces for pizza and cakes. Just a…
For CAS, it's dream home, university, get together. For gameplay it's get to work, eco lifestyle and cottage living. Most used towns are Willow Creek and San Myshuno. Most used build/buy, City Living. Famous, Jungle, Magic and Snowy never factor into my game. Never finish any storylines I base on them. But it's so…
It was just shocking how boring it looked. I don't think I've ever seen a Sims expansion look as uninteresting as this one. Edit: Although, I felt the similarly about Eco lifestyle, and several of the items are now indispensable to my gameplay. Then again, I also felt that way about Island Living, and it's a trash pack.…
Oh, yeah. I've absolutely tried all those things. Especially the repopulate the whole world thing. It's too ambitious. It's exhausting. And I have a lot of trouble playing families, because I find children so boring. I often move them into another household until they become teenagers, unless it's specific to a challenge.…
I have tried building a neutral sim and letting them lead me, but that's when you bump into how little the game has to offer without player creativity. It's just new friends and flirting with your partner... very boring stuff. But your suggestion about randomizing traits sounds like blasphemy, so that's probably just the…
Your suggestion of just "experiencing the game" really reminds me of a gameplay idea I had a while back to visit the Sims as a wealthy socialite, that spends a week in each town, in a rental, living exclusively in each individual town and interacting with those sims and the gameplay of that world for a whole week. Before…
Yes. Very this. My first thought when I watched the trailer was, "that's it?" Weddings are such a small part of gameplay, and most sims have 0-1 wedding in their lifetime, don't they? It's strange I haven't seen this opinion more. I think maybe the only reason it isn't a stuff pack is the new world.
I didn't buy it for the gameplay. It seems very shallow and repetitive. Every time I buy a pack that's repetitive I regret it. (Except Laundry Day.) So the bugs didn't affect me buying it. But I'm assuming this puts me in the minority. I haven't seen whether there's a way to choose to have normal weddings or "pack…
Thanks so much for answering. Idk, I didn't imagine the internet would have the answer, it's often so oblivious on sims 4 issues. And I couldn't find the answer on the forums. I didn't think I was being rude. I thought I was asking someone who didn't have the answer to not present an answer they did not have. I thought…
Island Living just has you building sand castles in Oasis Spring, that's pretty much all it added to regular gameplay. Snowy Escape has a great world, but also enhanced the game overall.
I just thought of one I always do. It might be small. I group places with similar architecture/vegetation/etc so Sims can only travel among those places without sleeping over. Oasis Spring and Del Sol would be in the same country, and if you want to go to San Myshuno you'd have to rent a room and stay over night or you can…
I love some of these, like I've never specifically created friends for my Sims based on traits and interests before, even if I give them detailed backstories and full neighbourhoods... And now I'm just like, why have I never done that.
Yea. No kits have seemed worth any money at all. Just expensive, worst cc, with fewer options... not sure why I'd pay for that. But I'm sure they're making a boatload of money... Good for them. Hopefully we get good packs next year. Cottage Living was decent... I'm actually not mad I paid full price for it...
The Sims asks for so much and gives so little. I really think I might finally be done with Sims. This sucks. $5 for stuff that the community would do better for free? Why? Some clever group of MBAs somewhere has really destroyed this game for me.
