In it for the Clothes....

I'm more interested in the BB because I have one or two other saves (in addition to my SW save) where it'll fit. I do like building post-acpocalyptic settings, and laboratory and spaceship interiors, things like that.

The CAS I don't love. There's some good pieces (and I think the male items are looking better than the female ones for once), but a lot of them seem like variations of the same thing with just a couple of detailes changed. I would have liked more of a balance between space hipster and some, idk, Naboo high fashion lol. At least there's half of a cloak hood thingy, I've been wanting cloaks since Realm of Magic and it doesn't look like I'm getting any lol. It all does look really nicely done, very detailed.

wait for cc makers. we already got the hair pulled from the game to download as CC. im not paying money for that stuff.

Oh dang, really? Because I was feeling the hair with dye.

There are a few things I liked from CAS, but not enough to justify the price when I don't even like Star Wars. If it went on sale, then I might consider it but idk.

Only desirable thing for myself was the hairstyles. Besides that, zilch.

YES! I already have Darth Vader, Leia, Luke, Yoda, Boba, Aayla and Darth Maul on my rotational and I would love to put more SW based characters throughout my heighborhoods <3 To be honest, not my cup of tea the missions system (it wasn't either when TS3 WA released), but clothes and build items?? gimme gimme more haha

No, I doubt the CAS would be redeemable for me because I’m not into making “space hipsters” lol but I am curious about the BB items. I want items I can use in regular homes for other worlds. And I also wanna know if this is a pack where you can totally avoid the Star Wars mentions and enjoy the pack without ever taking your Sim to Batuu or if it’s really unavoidable.

For example, with the StrangerVille pack, you could largely avoid completing the story mission and still enjoy the pack without being annoyed by the game automatically reminding you to do it or forcing things on you. I wanna know if it’s like that with the Star Wars pack too.

"space hipsters" haha :)

I think what is sad these days is when packs come out and most reviewers/players are mainly talking about buying because of cas or other new objects and good game-play barley gets a mention anymore..

I like strangerville but I only completed the story mission once then backtracked and left the world in it's original state so i can play more of apocalyptic game when i feel like it and while I was never going to buy star wars in sims anyway I was hoping that the players looking forward to it got more of a usable world/game play than they appear to have got. Plus it appears yet more bugs have been created if reading a few forum threads is anything to go by and I had enough of that with Eco living which totally destroyed my game. I dare not even play in an eco world in my game in case I do something inadvertently and set all the madness off again lol

Honestly I was so against this pack from the beginning that I shouted I’d never buy. Then I saw bb and CAS items and decided I’ll buy on sale.

I’m mad about that. I have no self control. :(

I have the pack and I'll say right now that I absolutely love the CAS. (Full disclosure, I'm not into trendy fashions or even "normal" clothing for my game.) Most of the clothes are in nice, neutral, muted tones with layers. The detail is really beautiful and there's a lot of it for a GP.

Since you seem like you also want a little "extra" in your Sims' wardrobes, I'd like to point out that many of the SW styles have great potential for Apocalyptic, cultists, desert dwellers, hippies, burning man, convent, pilot, Halloween, and Sim Aliens.

Also note that there are a few fashions for kids and toddlers as well. :)

I agree with this. I saw someone say they are buying it for the plants. And that’s their call, their money but I think it sends the wrong message to the dev team.

I have to admit I looked for items that I might want in my game, but sadly, even the clothing did nothing for me. I do have a game save set into the future, too. But, alas, this is my fifth pack I'm not going to purchase.
