New Season, New Sims! New Kits!

That's a lot of kits that's not gameplay. Eh, I wish they'd actually give us something interesting instead of the same cas and build packs over and over. At least sprinkle some gameplay in once in a while, please.

Why does the townie refresh have me worried?

dang it thats pretty vague ...again

time to overanalyze this :lol:

I do wonder if the looks will really defy borders and boundaries though *adjust monocle* hope its something cool cause man thats lot of cas kits

another modern build kit sounds pretty meh in theory but well personal taste anyway as modernity just ain't it

slightly concerned about the lack of romance in these wordings though perhaps it is indeed still not coming anytime soon :disappointed:

Personally I'm thrilled for new kits without gameplay, for obvious reasons. The kits I do have with decor are great, I love Mosaic and Country kits and am eager to see what new BB is coming.

I have hope that they can be nice kits, and I do appreciate content. We'll see, though. We'll also see how much kits and free updates get in the way of paid DLC.

I'm generally open until given a reason not to be.

Not going to lie, was a bit bummed when I saw it was only Kits and "Free Updates" mentioned since I was holding out (cautious) hope for a new occult this year. But then I saw it didn't say Free Basegame updates and it gave me some hope back. Perhaps there will be another Gamepack Update or an expansion that adds a new occult? ?

I was thinking exactly the same. We haven't gotten a new occult lifestate for ages, 2019 to be exact. I was hoping for an occult GP in autumn but if that we coming they would have mentioned it like they mentioned packs in the summer overview .

also worried but mostly cause ive built my whole save on premades so i really don't want them to change them out of nowhere like dang at least hope it does not affect my save

3 CAS Kits: toddlers, children and teens or elders focused? LOL I think we can still dream about that... It will be again young adult focused.
Less bugs with CAS and BB kits? Think about the nails update (I love the nails, but it come with lot of visual glitches with clothes).

My favorites are saved to my library.

These updates are always rollercoatsers for me, with little in between "Oh, I love this so much" and "Need a mod asap to get this out of my game again". Customizing with color could refer to more swatches, what is good. In combination with New ways to play it might hint at sims becoming more aware of colors, building on the Likes/Dislikes system. A sim wearing their favorite color might become more attarctive ion their eyes, or a room with their disliked color might trigger the Awful decoration moodlet. I hope it's this, and not some generic thing like red being present in any form making sims flirty.

So for what it's worth, here's my best guess/speculation on what's coming our way:

1) "add dimension to your sims' lives" = new traits, aspirations, likes/dislikes will be coming in the CAS kits

2) "let you customize your space with colour" = adding the ability to use colour/hue/saturation sliders to build/buy items (instead of just make-up) which will give us a lot more colour options to play around with (it's not a colour wheel per se, but will still give us a bigger range of colour options to choose from).

3) "and unlock new ways to play" = Perhaps we will now be getting these colour/hue/saturation sliders for everything now? Hair, make-up, clothes, accessories, eyes, skin, decor, clutter, furniture, wall coverings, doors/windows/stairs, bushes/flowers, etc etc.... Which will, naturally, open up and "unlock" a whole new way of customizing our sims and the world around them?


In a nutshell: I think this fall season is all about customizing our sims' with new outfits and personalities, and customizing our sims' surroundings with new colour changing options. Changing colours.... just like during the autumn season? ;)
