For now quoting what I've posted in another thread. As of now I do not see anything to be positive about this GP. I do not buy packs for worlds or CAS/BB assets.

The description and screenshots left me very disappointed. I do not care about CAS/BB assets that much as well as about the new world (besides GP worlds are always so tiny). I see it just as another party pack with no "meat". My reasoning is below:

1) Sounds like we have several new types of parties - engagement dinner; rehearsal; bachelorette party & wedding itself of course. This will be goaled I guess but actually what's new here? Want engagement dinner - have a dinner party. Want rehearsal - regular home one or club gathering. Bachelorette can be interesting but so far not shown in any of screenshots besides briefly mentioned in the description. And I'm not expecting anything crazy 'cause TS4 is all on the safe side of things.
2) New vendors are stalls again so it'll be hard to fit them in any other environment than their original design, moreover the cake one looks like part of the building - so again gameplay tied to the world? Just like grocery stand works in Henford only. Thank you, but no.
3) Dancing shown surely include some new moves but it's definitely not a slow dancing. I figure if it was in the pack it would be shown.
4) Exchanging wows, cutting cakes, giving speeches... what's new here? I saw nothing? It all exist in the game already.
5) I see buffets and fountains repurposed from Luxury Party stuff. So again nothing new. Moreover I suspect this "tea" thing is more a tea fountain (like the one at the romance festival) - can be seen in the 3 picture - than a tea set everybody are thinking about.
5) The only NEW part from what I gather - adjustable wedding traditions and party decorations. I guess it'll be working somehow like Seasons traditions/decorations. But will it work for other parties? Otherwise it's not a huge gameplay element to create a GAME pack around it.

So new "hero" object is "aisle" I guess, others are repurposed from already existing ones, new gameplay system is party customization (hopefully applied to more parties than just weddings) and a new world. That's pretty much all that I see. What I do not see are attraction, dating improvements, slow dancing, new romantic interactions/animations. To me it feels like a SP + world again.

I'm anxiously waiting for today's trailer 'cause I hope to be wrong and to hear about good stuff patched in pre-pack update. 'Cause all I want from romance is attraction system. Something universal to the whole game not just polishing of one event. And so far I have a strong feeling we won't get it.

P.S. Also how many of you expect cringe voiceover in todays trailer? I bet this one will have it.

I will just watch it on mute :D . I did that with the updated Spa Day trailer without knowing how it would sound like. Same with the subsequent trailers.
