Really hoping the Celebration of Life festival was broken in my game. Because when I loaded into it, it was just a single stage with a single picture so you can mourn one sim. Also some people dressed up as bird. They didn't even have a podium for speeches, or things to do. They didn't even put it in a space with a lot of room so you can properly grieve with a crowd. How is this a festival? How is this a celebration, when it's just a half-baked funeral? Heck, there's a graveyard right there, and it's fully decked out for funerals already, every single day.
Next, I hate some of the clothes for men. They've had this issue with the past few packs, where so many of the male clothes are bulky and don't show the sim's shape well. They all look bloated. Not everything has to be form-fitting, but we've been getting more and more of these looks.
Here's my sim in normal clothes (center)
And here he is in some L&D clothes.
And these are just the tamer examples, and still better than 98% of Lovestruck's oversized clothes. I like having bulky clothes, but I feel like the balance is really off.
I saw a clip of that festival on Youtube and, while the crow costume is fine on it's own, it had no sense to be set as mandatory costume for what appeared to be a memorial service. For such occasions people wear their Sunday best clothes. Also, wonder if they are aware that, in Romania, crow is a derogatory euphemism used to refer to Romani and dark skinned people. In this context, the mandatory crow costume comes across as mocking the occasion and also a bit jarring because of the implied local meaning. My first thought was OMG, did they actually mean it like that.
