Using the hooded top on females makes eyes widen.

:joy: Idk which kit I want first anymore so not buying either yet

the thing is I want to rebuild my Medieval Castle in Windenburg and maybe build fancy estate in Henford

but also now that I see the swatches in Goth kit I do have quite many households that could use some of that and in fact I am going to be playing some of those households soon so hmnn

@EA_Cade

I did not but after I restarted my PC, everything showed up normally :)

I shall have to make an official request for medieval ARROW arrow slits. Fortress-style, not fancy-style. Hopefully we'll get one or two in a future pack or with an SDX drop.

That sounds like a good plan.

Asking because I don't actually know, is there an actual mechanism to do that? Make official requests or provide direct feedback, I mean.

Hey @luciusstorm, making requests on this forum is as official as it gets me thinks.

You will find the "Feedback" category under "Categories" (see at the top-left of this page). There are two child categories under feedback: Sims 4 Feedback & Ideas Corner. That's where the community shares their ideas and some of these ideas do make it in the game! I've seen it happen with my own peepers.

Lots of folks use other social media to get their voices heard. I personally stick to the forum's cosy little ideas corner. They serve tea and cake over there, sometimes.

If you really want something, the key is to remain consitent, use images and be a bit louder than usual. Some would say 'don't be afraid to be a tad annoying', I would never say or do that, ever, but it does seems to work in many cases. ?

So I went ahead and picked up both kits. For the Goth kit, I love the jackets and the boots. I do wish there were more to the kit. I think I will use a lot of the pieces even though I don't really have goths in my game. I wish we had gotten hair instead of make up and accessories. Except the gloves. Love the gloves.

I also really like the castle kit. Maybe someday we can get some interior bits that would be more fitting for the design. That would make me happy.

Well, I watched some video’s on the kits. The castle kit looks much more appealing than I thought it would with all the wall colors and things they have. And the goth kit I think will be cute for my teens.

But I still think I’m going to wait till the dev’s get the residential rental lot fixed where it can be changed back into residential or other lot before I pick up the kits. I like both of the kits though.

I’m still hoping we get as Medieval expansion sometime with proper furnishings for a castle and peasant houses. New activities like archery, pottery making and basket weaving, and a nice, large medieval town. Maybe with a pig thrown in, wheat, and a mill would be nice too.

You know what @CAPTAIN_NXR7 that is a very glaring oversight considering they advertised arrow slits.
Those windows just can't be what they mean by arrow slits. The shape is wrong.

Maybe this will become one of those moments like with the Industrial kit, where they showed a window in the promo art that wasn't included in the kit, and people made such a stink that they had to make the window and add it in later?

@mightysprite @CAPTAIN_NXR7 I think once the game has made the opening, cc creators can go in there and make the arrow slit custom content- I hope fingers crossed, or even better like @mightysprite it is delivered as a official refresh, like the missing window from the industrial loft kit.
If you need it for you build and you don't mind cc, I found Syboulette has one. I havent tried it in game, but I am about to for my castle residence renovations coming up.
