Lovestruck Livestream Hopes and Concerns

Tomorrow's the big day and I hope this Livestream shows the following.

How the polyamory relationships work eg how do you make you're sim have this in the first place? Is it a trait or is it something you have to do on the dating app?

I'm hoping to see an entire tour of the world and the premade households. I'm also hoping the map will get released on this LS.

I want to see all the new romantic interactions and the new phone and camera romantic poses which we haven't seen yet. We've just seen the new friendly ones.

I'm hoping that they'll show whether Lovestruck intergrates with other packs eg especially with the Social Bunny App that came with High School Years. I'm hoping that Cupid's Corner lets us chat with sims we hook up with and use emojies and especially flirt.

With the world I'm hoping to see additional stuff like more amusement park rides especially a carousel and maybe roller coasters. I'm also hoping to see a pool slide but unfortunately that's not looking likely to happen.

I'm hoping that the Sims Team will review what EA Gamechangers are building lots for this world.

I"m hoping to see a beach in Ciudad that sims can swim in.

I"m hoping to see the heart hottub.

I'm hoping to see all the CAS and Buy Build items. I especially want to see those eyelashes.

Basically I'm hoping to see a 3 hr Livestream.

If they want to point out more heart-shaped items (like if they're bringing back the heart-shaped hot tub from Sims 1) or if there's a specific item made by a EA Gamechanger that they included, that's fine. But going item by item in CAS or piece by piece in Build/Buy isn't needed. We'll be able to send most of that for ourselves in-game. We get that the overall theme of this pack is colorful, heart-shaped, and butterflies. 

I'd love for them to focus on: 

•  The map of Ciudad Emamorada - How many lots? Empty lots? Pre-made families? Any Lore? 
• The Romantic Consultant career - even though it's a rabbit hole, give us more details...is it a job that's capable of working from home?  Besides the romance skill, what other skill do you need to get promoted? Preview the special interactions that are unlocked by getting promoted?
• Romantic Satisfaction Skill - How does that work? New relationship bar? How does the romantic repair date help improve this? 
• Turn-Ons/Offs in CAS - does it overlap with likes & dislikes? How does it determine how well a sim is attracted to another sim? Can those change or be acquired through gameplay? 
• Planning a Date - What were the rest of activities that you can select? What happens if you choose a venue where it is not possible to do that date? Can you change the activities later mid-way through a date?
• Any cross pack play with My Wedding Stories or Growing Together, any other packs? 
• How many new board games came with this pack? How can we play them? Age restricted only to adults? Does that contribute to turn-ons/offs, romantic satisfaction, etc? 

There is one thing I've always wondered: how the trait turn-ons and turn-offs work? Are there separate options for each trait or are they grouped together like Sim Characteristics are?

Here's a picture from the trailer:

There is one trait that has this icon: Career-Minded aspiration bonus trait. And that's only available through the tutorial too! So, does one trait's icon get changed, will we get a new trait, or is it not a trait turn-on/off at all, but something else turn-on/off (turned on by career talk?)?

In short, I want answer to that.

And I wish that they go through every category to the bottom of the selection. I want to see every available option there (I must plan ahead everything!).

And show the new traits' description too please. And what exactly causes death by heartbreak?

So many questions...

Yes I forgot to mention the new card game. I'm hoping they show what it does.

Today's The Day!!!!

I want to see everything! I'm especially interested in seeing how romantic satisfaction works. Can we really have unrequited love now? Is this a different thing from the current romance bar or a reworking of it?

Good questions! 

I am also wondering what happens if a Sim discovers a new trait that is a turn-off for their partner. Will that cause relationship problems?

World...😍 I so much need to have another city. 💖

I know some people are concerned it uses City Living set dressing too much. but from what I saw so far from trailer pics, this has more flora.  And I plan to use it as part or neighbor to San M anyway, so it does not bug me.

I am worried about dating app autonomy...  Please game, do not break my couples when Im not watching, pretty please???

I want to see the world, what lots are included, sizes - I don't think we'll see all of that because they never hover over every lot. Maybe one of the gurus will share a map with sizes after the livestream is over.

I'd also like to see more about turn-ons and turn-offs; I don't expect them to detail every single possible thing, but a quick scroll of the panel would show what kinds of things are available in more detail.

CAS/BB is sort of middle for me - I always want to know what the stuff is, but they never seem to show it off particularly well (I'd rather they click on every clothing item, than click on a few where they click on multiple swatches).

That's a good question...

There are two things I can suggest for now. Of course the livestream will answer it, but yeah, here are my suggestions:

1. What seems to matter is if the trait is "acted upon". In the gameplay trailer, the Glutton turn-off activated once the other sim ate in a Glutton way.
2. It could go the Growing Together's Social Compatibility route and have the compatibility not be affected by unknown traits.

But yeah, in the end, I hope the livestream answers this question. It's only today now...
