OH WAIT

The simlish at the beginning also had a different accent from usual simlish

Does this mean we are getting different accents of simlish now????? that would be incredible

or was it just part of the voice acting for the trailer?

I noticed this too! That would be awesome but I assume it was just for the trailer. That would be a lot of work.

Was it me or this trailer was really empty? Why call this a gameplay trailer when there's no gameplay in it?

I guess it depends on how you define gameplay ?.
Because using the rental features is playing the game. And it seems there is a LOT to it so it took up the whole trailer. We will see more in the livestream.

I've been wanting new Sim accents for years. Back when Batuu released, I had hoped we'd get the English accent that Rey has, but...alas. It would be such a great addition to the game to have a variety of new Simlish voice choices in different accents! Plus, the three choices per gender we've had for nine years have grown a little stale for me after playing like, 200+ Sims, lol.

Yeah more voices and accents would be a dream!
I was disappointed about that Batu one as well.

I understood the narrator just fine. I am happy that they used the voice of someone that may be from Thailand instead of another perky American voice to please the masses. Anytime you have to say not to be rude/harsh/offensive, you’re being just that. ?

Agree I had absolutely no problem following what they said. I don't agree about the part of "another perky american voice" though. :)

And as MightySprite said there is an option for closed caption if you have a problem understanding. Looking forward to this pack.

I think the trailer answered lots of questions about being a landlord.

But it's left me wanting to know more about being a tenant, living in the new world, and about animal sanctuaries.

I really liked this trailer, I understood the voices and it gave a lot of information about being a landlord. They could make more like this before For Rent releases.
A tour guide encouraging us to visit Tomarang, by showing us around town would be good.

Loved the trailer, saw some beautiful furniture and small glimpses of the new world. One of the pictures showed a dragon boat, hope they add a functioning one to the game that 8 sims can ride together. Would have loved to see something about the sanctuary and botanical gardens. Didn't have any issues with the voiceover, but at times he sounded Gru from the Minions. :lol:

Agreed. I have a very standard American accent myself-- and declining middle aged hearing!-- but I did not have any trouble whatsoever understanding anything he said.

Aside from that, the trailer really underscored for me how much I absolutely love CAS and B/B for this pack. I don't feel like I learned that much from this trailer, but, it was a nice little glimpse, and the livestream will be here soon enough.

The landlord system looks very, very promising. If the pack isn't overridden by bugs, it could be a great pack.

EDIT: "The more renters you attract" bit has me concerned though. I do NOT care about attracting random NPCs for renting. I just want my own custom sims to rent to. I hope we can individually select the sims we can rent to.

EDIT x2: At around @ 0:50 mark in the video...are two apartments sharing the same bathroom in that video? Is that a thing in Thailand/other places? That seems like a goof to me.
