I still haven't bought Lucky Palms...let me know how it is... :mrgreen:
For me, it was worth buying, even at that price, and even knowing that Sims 3 is a ticking timebomb that could implode at any time.
Moonwood Mills was my first favorite Sims 4 world, and I thought Moonlight Falls would be my first favorite Sims 3 world, but I ended out liking Sunset Valley more than Moonlight Falls. There was just too much supernatural going on. It was overwhelming.
I don't like celebrity play at all. I guess I don't like Western play in either Sims 3 or Sims 4. I do like general camping and hiking type worlds, but Hidden Springs is got some type of major celebrity theme thrown in. I don't like it as much as Outdoor Retreat. The City pack has vampires and celebrities. I'm just not in the mood for that kind of drama. On the other hand, Riverview was just too narrowly farming. The Island stuff might be what I do next, but I don't want to travel by boat right now. I chose Lucky Palms by the process of elimination.
I see now that Lucky Palms was originally discussed as being Palm Springs, but I see over time people began referring to it as Las Vegas. I know very little about Palm Springs. Las Vegas has some extremely diverse neighborhoods and I intend to break Lucky Palms up like that. Las Vegas reminds me of a giant movie studio with different sets on every corner. Las Vegas is made of plastic and foam and is so fake. But the surrounding mountains are so real and influential and lasting. I think that dichotomy appeals to me right now. The sun and the mountains are what I crave most. The rest I will figure out as I go along.
I really like the little dock area. I think I have found some houses that I can edit to fit in there.
