Wouldn’t this have been an opportune time to give us pool tables? Bars are a central spot to meet singles but the bar scene isn’t new to the game by any means. Wouldn’t something as iconic as the pool table have been a fun and obvious addition??
Yes, it would have been a good addition. The one thing missing from the pack is a unique item that's not a reskin of something already in the game.
Yeah I really do miss having the pool table in the game.
What are our new gameplay items in this EP?? It would have been nice to have a new gym objects with new game play (like a stationary bike??) or something new couples could do together at the bar (like the pool table). It would have been cool to be able to form a band! That would be and enticing romantic themed addition.
I think the only thing for sims to do together at bars is the new tabletop game.
The new items are certainly lacking compared to what we already have as activities. It contributes to that feel that this isn't worth the expansion price. They didn't give children rocking horses in Horse Ranch either when it was obvious to do so, so I don't know what's their thought process of not adding new activities. Adding the dumbbell rack with no animation was just wrong. They sell us clutter kits all the time. That could have been a clutter item. When they make expansion we/I expect new gameplay with some animations.
I would have loved to get pool tables with this pack! I know there's a cost difference in creating entirely brand new objects rather than just new meshes of existing gameplay objects, but I'm surprised we got new gym equipment/decor. It's not what would come to mind first when I think of a love-themed expansion pack.
Maybe a hobby pack is coming somewhere down the line that will give us those and some arcade games (and other things), but yeah, missed opportunity here.
We got new gym equipment? With new animation? I thought it was just a recolour
DeepPurpIe Whether it's a recolor or new mesh, it's definitely not a new activity. I was also very disappointed to learn that the dumbbell rack wasn't functional. Pool table would have been nice.
Should have been added with Horse Ranch already. Cowboys love to play pool.
At this stage I don't think we'll get them in TS4. There have been so many packs that would have been ideal to include them in but they were left out.
Pool tables are on the short list of things I still miss and still wish we had. I used to use that pool table in Sims 3 a lot.
Yes, I totally agree
