Idk about this pack. The live stream was incredibly lackluster and it really doesn't sit well with me that they keep adding more and more packs that are literally just: click through this menu to change some settings.
Like idk about y'all but I've never found sentiments, lifestyles, likes/dislikes, family dynamics / etc to have any super, super obvious effects on my sims' personalities and I highly doubt this pack will be any different.
I really wanted them to add actual date activities over these silly little overlay menus that quite essentially are not gameplay. And it's annoying because the layout is always kinda same same (whether social bunny or dating app), so it's really not a lot of work for them to keep adding more of them into the game. And like sure they can enhance gameplay, but they shouldn't be the main attraction??
They could have added sooooo many things to this, most importantly one or preferably multiple non-rabbit hole lot types like an aquarium, a mall, a boardgame store with weekly meetups (also a fun activity for married sims with kids), a circus, or literally anything else for sims to go to on their dates.
Honestly, there are so many amazing games out there with 100s of hours of content for sometimes only 20 bucks - I just don't see how anything they've released in the last 2 years is worth even that low price tag, let alone 40. It's kind of a joke at this point. And I'd be embarrassed as hell to have my name on any of these products.
I think it would have been nice if at least the picnic blanket could be used to have a picnic with more than two sims. It's possible to bring upto 8 sims on a date, why not enable the picnic for more than two sims? I suspect it will be possible to take your sims on dates to the restaurants or shops if you have the right packs for that, but I agree with you that some more activities couples could do together would have been nice. They could have brought back the pool table, or beach volleyball, or a couple of arcade machines. It's nice that they can now woohoo in the hear bed, the closet and bear rug, but they should have added some nice activities to do before they got to the woohoo part.
