For me I was hesitant long before these forums started, so as disappointed as I am with the forum (I had to move my story to a blog because it was impossible to maintain here in a reasonable manner), it has little to do with my feelings for the pack. For me these are the main issues why I don't want the pack:
- The TOTO are too safe when it comes to looks (see comments below)
- The costumes are too many and the CAS too ugly. Once more they have no decent shirts for men, but only things that are untucked. (I do like the loafers, but that's about it).
- The new gameplay objects are too few for an EP - a janitors closet that does nothing other than being a woohoo place, a heart-shaped bed that does not vibrate, a picknick blanket, a new game and a costume trunk. That's it.
- The hotel rabbit hole (seriously it's insulting to those of us who actually wanted hotels)
There are a few things I do like, which might mean I pick it up on a sale. Some of the new build items looks nice, I love the curved bar, some of the relationship dynamics could be interesting to play around with, the new death (by a broken heart) could be interesting if it's not too easily triggered, and I do like the picknick blanket.
The bed can actually vibrate!
I agree about the TOTO though, things like make up, piercings, beards, body hair, glasses would have been nice and realistic without being problematic. I wish they would have added more.
But I also think it's difficult to judge this pack without playing (or having seen longer let's plays). If the new romance features actually change how difficult relationships are and how they feel, this is a big plus for me (but it's a more subtle thing than gameplay objects). But I'm also afraid that they messed up things, hard to to tell right now 😅
The bed can actually vibrate!
That's nice to know. I must have missed that, but it makes me happy to hear.
Obviously you have a point and it might impact gameplay in a massive way that we can't see, but to me it feels thin. I won't say that I'm not going to get it, but I won't get it at full price that's for sure.
