EP 10 "Snowy Escape" Trailer - Let's Watch it Together

I'm so thrilled that "meditating on mindful walks" is an option! One of my very favorite mods is the Thinking trait that is sort of like this. WHEE!!! And I already know which Sim will be snowboarding immediately!

So I suppose no hotels then. Well... That's a disappointment. Other than that, it's very pretty and fun.

We might get something, there was a new lot type on the leaked map that could be a resort of some kind.

Description or press release says nothing about hotels too. But there's an interesting part:
The Sims 4 Snowy Escape also introduces Lifestyles and Sentiments features, adding more depth to Sims’ personalities and relationships. For the first time, up to 16 Lifestyles will manifest in response to a Sim’s actions and habits, changing their behaviors significantly more than Create a Sim traits as they reflect a Sim’s lived experiences. Sentiments represent how two Sims can feel differently about the outcome of a shared experience and have a lasting impact on Sims’ relationships to each other, affecting their social interactions.

That’s the main thing I’m sus about. I’ve had to use mods for that so far so it’ll be nice to see how they implement it into the game officially.

Lifestyle and sentiments ? Yaaaaaaaaaaaay !!

Yes I'm so curious about this. Will it be good? Will it be bad? Will it break everything? Or will our sims finally feel sufficiently different from each other ..........? Also, how do I feel about personality improvements being locked into expansion packs? Not sure... not sure at all. But at least they're trying huh.

I saw a youtube comment that said there wont be hotels. Not sure if that's correct but yh

I'm so excited!!! I can't wait to see how the lifestyles and sentiments will give them more personality

It's beautiful! <3 I watched the trailer (more than once), read the blog and looked at everything else that's currently available, and there is not a single thing I dislike about it right now. I can't wait for the livestream! (There's going to be one, right?) If everything is just half as cool as it looks, this could easily become one of my favourite EPs.

They nailed the trailer for this one (and they really needed a win after the um... reaction... to the last pack.) Song is a bop too. :smiley: Really liked seeing the onsen stuff and the low table with the hot pot. I hope we also have a non-winter version of that table too.

Here is the press release in case anyone else hasn't seen it:

I'm trying not to get too excited but SQUEEEE!!! It sounds amazing!!!

"The first world in The Sims 4 to introduce both residential homes and rental lots for vacationers." I got the impression that the snowy mountain part is the "destination world" part and the rest are residential, so at least the PR kind of confirms it.

I'm a bit sad that the lifestyles/sentiments feature seems to be locked in with this pack, and not an update to the base-game personality mechanics.

Need to learn more about this, but right now all I can think of is hoping that my existing sims will not be given a random lifestyle. We'll need to be able to set it ourselves, so many aspects of my sims' lives do exist only inside my head, LOL.
