Cozy Celebrations Rewards Event Coming Tuesday, December 3.
Forum Discussion
It's hard to be excited for these events when they don't work. I'm hoping this one does, though. I also wish they'd give event rewards as SDX drops for those who don't get them, because it's so annoying to worry about missing out because the events don't work.
Even when it works it's very disappointing "gameplay." When this was announced, I pictured Grim coming over or calling my Sim and saying he needs help - but nope!! I do suffer from being pretty literal as I am autistic, so that got my hopes up. That also means I was more disappointed in the shallow fakery of "Grim's" quests than I could have been. I also thought the whole process would make sense, overall - nope. They really shoved the aspects together. ☹️
Though subtle, the event was hyped up, but actually quite lackluster. Even the unlocking of rewards was messed up by their poor planning (timing/points spacing) - I was underwhelmed and left a bit confused. I should have felt some excitement, but nope.
I could tell (I think it's obvious?) that Reaper's Rewards was VERY rushed. And here comes a second event of this type after very little time to fix bugs, let alone plan it all better.
And don't even get me started on how seasonal gardening massively derailed my questing!!! (Why should I build a greenhouse just for some stupid quest?!) ALSO! I didn't like learning the hard way that taking cuttings can kill plants! (I thought more cutting might help my sim out, and IRL it's harmless!) I DID NOT WANT THIS GAMEPLAY!!
