Home Decorator Game Changer Let's Play Thread

Carl's review reminded me of something from when the game was first released. People were wondering why sims would wash dishes and prepare food in the bathroom. Turns out the game does not recognize various types rooms -- they're all just rooms. This was a design decision, but I don't remember why they went that route.

I can also tell you sometimes clients lie, like tell you they love something when they do not. Then fail you. I used a mod to check and yes they liked other things then they asked for and sometimes disliked what they asked for as well. lol Still testing..

I wonder what new mods will be made to address this room thing. I play Tenents on Steam and that game that has way less graphics and such knows what is a kitchen and with is a bedroom. lol

I find it sad that a majority of people seem to don't consider it as gameplay. Whether you play in CAS, Build, or Live, all of them count as game play. Builders have never had a pack that gives them the opportunity to integrate building with Live Mode features. This is a first in The Sims 4. And for builders like me this is an great addition to my gameplay. However the fact that in the review it was stated that the pack is just low on gameplay is just disappointing.

We have like gazilions of packs that focuses on Live mode and the Build and Buy are just mostly new objects. Now the pack focused on bringing build and live mode together (something that I would love as it open up a new game play oppurtunity) people hated it because they do not considered it as game play.

I mean looking at wikipedia gameplay is Defined as "Gameplay is the specific way in which players interact with a game, and in particular with video games. Gameplay is the pattern defined through the game rules, connection between player and the game, challenges and overcoming them, plot and player's connection with it.

If that is the case then how come that Building is not considered a gameplay? How come bridging Live Mode and Build Mode in One pack that might never ever again happen in the game lifespan was not considered game play when it was defined as the way players interact with the game?

I've tried the Tenants game as well. I actually really like it. It does recognize the room but it doesn't pay attention if the items match a theme or anything.

Yes there’s a definition of gameplay but everyone sees things differently. How I see gameplay doesn’t match that description.

For me gameplay is live mode. I do build more but the houses or community lots are something nice for my Sims to live in or visit. Live mode is where interactions happen.

I don’t know anyone who would pay to go to a movie just for the house or office?

I.e. I didn’t go watch Twilight because someone told me the Cullens (characters in the movie) have a great modern house with lots of windows etc.

This is why I’m not getting this pack. I’ve seen nothing that appeals to have my Sim enter a career based around build mode. I don’t feel this pack bridges live and build mode.

I would rather click build mode and change what I want, when I want.

I actually made that beautiful modern Cullen's home in the game for my modern Vampire/Spellcaster Hybrid. It was not an easy build, especially for the balcony. However, I did have fun collecting some cars for the Garage room.
