Didn't see a thread to discuss the new patch already so I wanted to make one here! Post any opinions or thoughts on it :)

I'm interested to see the scared emote but very disappointed by the bug fixes. Incredibly disappointed to see that the broken stairs have been ignored yet again even though it's been months and so many people have reported it and it literally breaks builds that are built into the game, making paid content not functional. Plus skintones being messed up on consoles has also been ignored as well as every single other big issue players have been reporting.

Yeah I thought the bug fixes were extremely underwhelming. I'm more interested in seeing what gets broken with this new patch before I update.

For anyone hunting, I'm tracking Mod/CC breakage/fixes here: https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/986225/broken-mods-cc-fear-update-paranormal-sp-jan-21 Nothing to report yet, though. But it's early.

Having just had a quick look at the patch notes I also have to say I'm a little underwhelmed. I had hopes for a lot more bug fixes, I'll admit. That said, I am excited for the new emotions though!

I'm hoping there is some bug fixes that haven't been included in the patch notes. It's disappointing to see no fix for the cooking instead of grabbing left overs, the resetting plants and others equally as annoying.

Heck would even take eating sitting out on the counter instead of making a new meal fix. It looks like a buffet in the kitchen as everyone serves their own meals.

@SueT me too. I just went through and put hair and clothing back on all my sims and gave them beds again. Makes me think I might just play cc'less for a while. Too big a hassle to mess with right now for me. I'm not up to the frustration of trying to make it work so I will just give it a few weeks and download new stuff.

The patch isn’t great for me so far. I’ve tried three times to send my Sim to the Romance Festival, and my game crashed all three times.

Edit: Ugh, I tried sending him to a different location in San Myshuno, and it crashed a fourth time!

Did you repair after updating?

Also did you try remove mods?

I think Origin has been really wonky lately and is causing some trouble for people.

It has definitely been problematic. After updating Sims, I got an error that essentially said I didn't own the game. What?! :# I repaired Sims and tried again with no luck. It was closing Origin and updating it that ended up solving the issue.

Hello guys! So, no major breaks? Can I assume that is safe to install the new patch? :#

I had a sim get a scared moodlet from a thunderstorm but sadly it was over powered by another emotion so I saw no actual reaction to it.
