So I’m going to be honest. I do really like this expansion, but I can’t argue that there isn’t much gameplay or depth especially when comparing it to other expansions for sims 4.
Exactly, you hit the nail on the head. This is exactly what I am explaining to @Writin_Reg the feel of the pack is great, but the lack of gameplay isn't up for debate here, its just a fact (which is basically what you are saying too). What isn't there isn't there and this has so little gameplay that its baffling. I made a list on another post and its concerning how little it has. I do agree though that the world and objects/clothes/hair are absolutely amazing, which just makes this even more of a pity.
I like it too, mainly for the environment, clothes, and objects.
I just had my sim have a conversation with Nalani and it seemed a little harder to increase his relationship with her.
I am wondering if it is because she's a mermaid. I love the fact that she denies being a mermaid and it makes me hope there is some payoff in getting to know this mysterious sim. So maybe this pack is just slow to open itself up?
I am having my sim try the activities, but they feel shallow. Like they are just a bunch of features to have on the list, but they aren't interrelated and build off each other for the culmination of a grand experience to be earned later. It's like a stuff pack, but with activities instead of stuff.
Activity pack with a tropical theme?
People going around saying this pack just isn't for you are annoying and it's mainly a shut up tactic. :)
Any pack that adds anything useful and improves the overall game is for me. It may be a small contribution, but the game itself is improved overall. It's just disappointing when your $40 gets you just a handful of useful features and immersion factors for you when the theme itself has so much more potential and we probably won't get anything else related to this theme.
I have my "vacation home", but I also have tags on every object that lets me put them up for sale because it's actually a retail lot.
And I have to phone-in daily for vacation time because my sim is not really on a scheduled vacation. And just now I clicked on the go-home icon, forgetting that It's going to take me back to San Myshuno instead of his vacation home in Sulani. :s Oops.
I am hoping that we do get features that will allow me to play Sulani like I want without feeling ad-hoc.
This is supposed to be an Expansion Pack, not a Game Pack.
At the rate I am going, most of the population of Sulani are going to be homeless as I use up the available lots for a spa, restaurant, a starter vacation home and a grand vacation home, and probably a full Sulani experience park with the the Island Spirits and Volcanic lot traits, generic cabins, and whatever else I can toss in there. This lot will be for my sims in all the other worlds who want to teleport over to Sulani for a weekend.
Alright, done!
Mua Pel'am just got a tourist lot.
Somebody has to be generating the trash that is appearing in this part of the world.

Sorry Fetu, but it's snowing in Windenburg right now and my sims want some sun and surf.
