I hope this would not be the New Features of Snowy Escape.

I hope this would not be the New Features of Snowy Escape. Let's be real, it is similar to City and Island Living, Except this time the did not add living in the title. So I hope we would not get the same set of features especially from Island Living.

1. Explore a New World! - I get it new world, but why is this the main feature? I think this is kind of expected.
2. New Culture! - Other than clothes and Build Mode Items they don't add any significant new changes to the gameplay. The only culture that actually worked in The Sims 4 was Selvadorada. Other than that, most culture are just...there. .
3. New Snow Activties! - I hope this is not the Main Feature. If this is something that they advertise as a min feature then it is a red flag for me. Island Living has activities like Sunburn and sandcastle as its Main expansion pack feature highlight. Turns out, that really is the only new gameplay, just new activity with one or two animation.

I want the Main Features to be Big, and changes gameplay, like Seasons Line up. Even Eco Lifestyle brings Eco Footprint and N.A.P. maybe I am just paranoid because of how Island living turn out, where the not so expansion pack features are the main draw of the pack and it is the only content that the expansion had. I wish they actually have something big here. Even Hotels or resorts....

  • Yes thank you! I really don't like how they market their worlds are a main feature of the pack. "Explore Britechester..." Oh yeah, you don't say. Also your worlds are tiny to be main features.
    And yes I also hope we don't only get a few new activities and skills with this pack. I wish the main features were tools for us to be creative again and not plain go there, explore this, do that.
    That ain't fun, you do the activity once and the you've seen it. Done.
    Either give us features we can invest time in or just keep your pack.

    So This. Features that will you know, Expand or even impact gameplay. During The Sims 2 Times, Skills and Activities are not the major features of the Pack. They are more like small suprises or something, instead the pack added new system that has replayability. Imagine if there is a Chemistry in this pack. It is something that is not one and done. It is something that we can have time to. Even Hotels are something.

    Island Living List of Main Features is really affecting my takes on new packs Lol. It is kinda hard.

    I agree 100%. I think we should get new systems that apply to all worlds in eps. A new world is not a new feature to me. Some new sportive activities aren't big enough for an ep.

    But we should be aware later today that the trailer will not feature everything in the ep before we go crazy. I'm often more interested in stuff that is not featured in the trailer than what the marketing or developing team considers interesting to show in first hand... let's see...

    I would never bet on an actual wanted feature being added to a pack.
