For Rent...Help Tempt Me To Buy

I sadly didn't get enough time to throughly play. Life is keeping me busy plus I still have a lot of builds to get to. However, from the little I did play I fell in love so hard with the world. If you're okay with small lots this world is a MUST have. The swim area is huge, the city area is really nice, and the more village style area is equally nice. To compare it to something it's like selvadorada meets sulani meets city living.
Just don't expect to do 6 unit lots here which is why I had to have half of my main Sims live in another world. And the single home or 2 or 3 unit Sims live in tomorang.

I would buy this pack alone for the feeling of community it gives! I built an apocalyptic street that I'm still working on little by little. It's a street I built from before but I had to modify it to make it sutible for renting rooms out above the stores.
I made a big majority of it shared spaces and put tons of stuff for Sims to do and animals to care for.
In the past when I played this lot with my 8 sim household it felt like they were 8 isolated survivors living in this big city/street area. I could invite others sims sure, but it still didn't really change the feel. Now it feels like an actual community with sims always around coming out of their units, interacting, and doing things. I got my best friends right across the street and enemies I dread seeing come out of their units☺. Once I'm officially done setting up the place I'm going to be the evil slumlord breaking in units and black mailing residents for secrets ?
I didn't get time to play around with the maintenance stuff but from what I've seen it looks really fun. And I saw on xTwitter that you have to clean the pool now as well? All of this is optional with the lot challenge of course.

New dances come with the pack.
You can sort junk mail

From what I've seen the traits look more in depth compared to precious ones. New animations. Cringe Sims get a special dance not just the dab. They can also get iconic cringe meme thought bubbles like buff yamachan and others I don't know the name of but have seen and used everywhere ??? I thought that was pretty neat.
CAS and B/B is really good. I love the bonus grill and I still can't believe we got a squat toilet with a new animation! Hot water heart, chance of lights going out, Hopscotch and marbles for kids! And more. Going to be a while before I get to everything in this pack.

Wow! Thank you for your input and thoughts on the pack, @Babykittyjade ! Now I'm thinking I WILL buy it, eventually. Would really like the bonus content you get if you buy it before January...What, 17th, I think? Something like that. I MIGHT have to splurge in January...At the very least you definitely got me thinking on it again, thank you!

No problem. There's so much to this pack I'm still learning about from xTwitter and the positive thread. Like the new neighborly chat animation, pool parties, the tiger sanctuary badge you can use as an alibi of caught breaking and entering, Tennent revolt etc.

If there is any reason you should wait for this pack is the bugs if that's something that bothers you. It does have some like the lag in build mode (the Sims say they are working on a fix)
But that doesn't stop ME?.
Otherwise I think you're definitely going to find something in here you like.

My advice is if you like the worlds Sulani & Tartosa, you're going to like Tomarang. B)

I wouldnt buy it for the world (too small, Im probably just going to use it as a holiday destination like Tartosa) or for the landlord/gameplay aspects as I think its either buggy or just poorly designed.
I would buy it if you are a builder as it has some awesome stuff, both the build features and the smaller gameplay items like kettles and hopscotch. Also worth it for creating communities or multi-generational lots which are alot of fun to play.
Not worth paying full price if pennies are tight tho IMO......
