Flocon Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I'm ok with the 9 lots world actually. As long as it's not big and empty and there's a lot a living public communal space between them (the fish market I think for this new world ?)

ATRL Moderator Unoriginal Posted November 27, 2023 Author ATRL Moderator Share Posted November 27, 2023 I worry a nine lot world will mostly forego community lots when the truth is we need MORE in every world, not less. My only (delulu) hope is there are lots eg gyms and parks permanently loaded into the world, or that they’re public spaces in the apartments The Sims 4 worlds are very pretty but we shouldn’t have to travel to three or four different worlds to access every type of community lot on the rare occasion it feels like a Sim needs to leave their home lot for something. I’d even take empty 20x20s we can build our own coffee shops, gyms, parks onto tbh 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Year of Shadow Posted November 27, 2023 Share Posted November 27, 2023 I like to put double garages for my homes (great space for a man cave) and it's really hard on small lots Got the itch to do some more stuff with Horse Ranch, maybe I'll finally start a tumblr for my sims stuff. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

VelvetCrush Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 I like lilsimsie she's a hard worker and unproblematic but her being so mad at playing as a landlord is so annoying Like it's just a game she does way worse to her sims and I would argue that giving your money to EA is far worse than playing as a landlord in a fictional game. Also this may be because I'm not american so please correct me if I'm wrong, but her calling toddlers the pronoun "it" is so weird, when it's supposed to be used to things and not people? Is it common in the US to call toddlers "it" and not him/her? I could also use the "it's just a game" logic here but I bet she would be mad or find it problematic if someone was calling her they/them sims as him/her. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah I 've seen a lot of complaints over the landlord feature. People are out there downloading BDSM content, extreme violence mods but playing a landlord is where they draw the line?? I even saw some youtubers promote mods for Spoiler random miscarriages and teen pregnancies EA: "Werewolves!" magic stans: "thank you EA <3 can't wait for the castles dlc in 2024 <3" realism stans: "**** the magic stans they are FAKE stans sims is a SIMULATOR it should be realism we want realism!!!111" EA: "Okay, here's rental apartments and landlords just like real life" realism stans: "No not like that!!!"

Year of Shadow Posted November 30, 2023 Share Posted November 30, 2023 And yes, there have been very nasty remarks by magic-haters when Werewolves got revealed much in the vein of what I wrote above. And yes it was a one-sided fued. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tropez Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 The only sim reviewer I even listen to is LazyGameReviews. He seems to be the only one that is totally frank, and doesn’t care if EA stops sending him review copies. So I will wait to see what he has to say about the expansion. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He is super biased when it comes to the magical gameplay (didn't even bother to review Paranormal or Werewolves) so don't rely too much on him for the supernatural DLCs. I was shocked that he even hated Vampires. Also just a head's up: He struck a deal with Paralives. Take that as you will if he makes content once that game comes out. He's not as obnoxious as today's popular youtubers, but in the end of the day his channel is a source of income. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He didn’t review those I believe because to put it plainly he’s sick of all the extra content that EA is releasing as a clear cash grab. The total game price with all content is in the hundreds. And playing the game, the magic stuff is not that great. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Year of Shadow Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 Since we can buy specific marbles (and there's a Belladona Cove one!!!), does that mean those marble textures will be the ones in the jar and when sims play? That would be an extremely sweet detail. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Year of Shadow Posted December 1, 2023 Share Posted December 1, 2023 POP EMERGENCY: They will patch a feature for us to set if a sink is used for just bathroom functions, or just kitchen functions. From my code experience this is indeed not as easy as it seems to code. So many of my scripts are a mess because of if-else statements. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think the "it" thing is just a wider community joke of babies/infants/toddlers being the in-game equivalent of a needy poop machine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, its small, the tiger sanctuary is a rabbit hole and EA built all the lots which is the first time since eco lifestyle I think. Ive heard good things about the new apartment mechanics though, barring the few major glitches that seems to have popped up in the early access. This seems like the first pack since Cats and Dogs that can really change how you play the game and not just an add on that can be ignored after you get bored. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
