@AprilTheSimmer96 The alien abduction thing is only a very small part of what otherwise looks like a pretty cool pack & after doing some looking around on the forums I see there are work-around methods of avoiding them even without the Satellite Dish or mods. If your Sim starts to "investigate the strange light" you can try cancelling the interaction or if that does not work you can shift + click your Sim and select Reset Sim. I just have this weird phobia about alien abductions in general. When I was a kid I was playing Sims Bustin' Out and the first time my Sim got abducted I freaked out so bad I probably didn't play that game for a week! xD I thought my Sim was gone forever. Anyhow, that is only part of the reason I haven't yet bought Get to Work. Everyone has different styles of playing, and though this pack might be a very good match for lots of Simmers (many players rank it near the top of their list), it's just not a very good match for mine. Also, my priority has always been to get packs with the largest amount of lots to build & create on-- Get to Work has a lot of game-play features but not so much for new lots to build on. Still, it's the last EP I haven't got yet and some of the CAS and Build/Buy items look very tempting. I will add it sooner or later.
@PugLove888 The first time one of my Sims got abducted I was more picturing "Fire in the Sky" than Close Encounters xD
Though they do have a weird walk after being abducted (think of it as a Sim in Sims 4 having to pee, it kinda looks like that but their feet are a bit closer together), and it's slower than their normal walk. 🤨 But I always pull out the Super Drencher (a water gun you spray the aliens invading Strangetown with in the game) so she can walk at normal speed or even run. ☺️
Every time I see that walk though I think (and joke to myself) that they did something else to her other than abducting her. 😆 If you want me to look for a video of what an abduction in Sims 2 for DS looks like I can show you, though. 😉 Unless you don't want to see it. ☺️

@AprilTheSimmer96 Whoa... I'm gonna go out on a limb here and say based on their reactions, the Sims in Sims 2 did NOT enjoy their Close Encounter of the Third kind! O_o
- 5 years ago@RandomBuzziness Haven't been on here in a while, sorry. And I agree, they probably did not. 😆 Though luckily the guests at the hotel don't get abducted, it's just the player's Sim if they're hit by Emperor Xizzle's (the main alien) ray gun thing. ☺️
