December 1st - For Rent Developer Deep Dive Livestream

These are my overall thoughts:

CAS - The new clothes & hair look great!
Build/Buy - I love some of it, but most of it isn’t really my style.
Residential Rentals - I’m glad that they cleared up that you can move specific sims into specific units. ;) Now, I’m only curious how private backyards & mailboxes work.

I’m so excited for next week! Now off to watch all of the early access content …

Well, one thing that made me laugh in today's video is when someone said they wanted to give us many options to build... while presenting the second smallest world ever introduced in an EP. I still don't understand why it's only nine lots, but at least it's beautiful. Based on what I saw in the trailers, I didn't think I was going to like the world very much, but I've changed my mind. I'm especially looking forward to the various islands you can swim to or, if you have Island Living, travel to by boat. Before, I never had much use for those boats other than riding around for fun.

The thing that excites me the most outside the new pack is that they finally fixed the disappearing stair-rail bug. I hope this will be included in next week's patch.

I wonder if spellcasters can clean or destroy mold via magic? If not, please let there be a mod.

@candystorm EmmaVane has started a Q&A. You may want to ask here:

It looked like they can use scrubberoo. I thought they did that right after they showed getting rid of the mold pile with fire. I could be wrong though.

Is there actually a new world? I came to it late and it looked as if they were using Newcrest to display items and play.

They only used the 50x40 lot in Newcrest to display all of the new BB items all at once. There is a brand new Southeast Asian inspired world coming with the pack.

I fell asleep so I have to ask: are the lots built by Simmers? They looked so EA ...

According to Lilsimsie, all the lots were built by EA. She thinks it's probably because of the apartment system not being ready in time to hire Simmers.

All the foods look so amazing ?????

Really excited about the new kitchen appliances. I know my sims will be using them a lot.

Also that they are providing an option to switch households without going into Manage Households.

they didn't show any beach or water interaction?

There is a lot in the southern neighborhood where you can go swimming. It's the empty lot on the left/west side of the map. From there you can swim to a cove that has a cave with lore about Tomarang. I missed little bits and pieces so there may be more than just that one swimmable area.

There is another swimmable location as well the one we saw in the trailer with the boats in the water.
