Look, anyone who is a genre fan... whether it's the Sims, Star Wars, Star Trek, the Buffyverse, LOTR, whatever... you know that the internal consistency of the universe matters. Are we now to believe that the Sims and Star Wars exist in the same universe? That's a big pill to swallow. I mean, would you really want Harry Potter showing up in Mordor, no matter how much you love either series?
I'd be really upset if they went back into The Lord of the Rings and edited in Harry Potter. But they didn't. And Bella Goth isn't going to be in the Star Wars movies. I don't want the next Fallout game to be set in Equestria, either, but I'm not going to be upset that someone wrote a My Little Pony/Fallout crossover fanfic that's not official and that no one is making me read.
My own "Star Wars save" as I'm planning it out is going to have a mix of regular Sims, Star Wars characters, characters from other TV shows and movies, and real people like my sim-self and my family and friends. I'm actually planning to mix in characters from Star Trek, Buffy, Harry Potter, and Lord of the Rings, because why not?
The Sims is a game about getting to play it your way, and it's also a game about other people getting to play it their way, so I don't see the point in getting up in arms that there's one optional DLC that lets people who want to play with Star Wars stuff in their game do that. Just don't buy it and if enough people don't buy it, you 100% will not see another pack like it.
