Plumbellas review

I've watched like, three GC videos and this was one of them. I fully didn't expect Plumbella to like this pack because 1. She's a "family" player, and 2. She doesn't know Star Wars. So that kind of bumped her opinion down for me a lot, as I'm not a family player, I'm a fantastical/adventure/Occult player and I do know Star Wars and have wanted more Star Wars stuff in my game for years.
I like Plumbella, I just don't think her review in this case is the best representation for me. Especially after how she reviewed Realm of Magic and was disappointed because she expected it to be a Harry Potter knockoff for Sims. So it's strange that she expected one brand to be there for her, but hates that a different brand is there for others. I find that a little hypocritical.

I think that English Simmer's review was probably the most helpful for me so far. She really likes Star Wars, has some different play styles, is open to some weird gameplay and likes Occults. She also is very mature and informative when voicing what she doesn't like and the reason, and she can do it without filler sarcasm that just drags out the video, which I don't have time for and tend to skip through. She pointed out some drawbacks of the pack that I (mostly) expected, but also showed some nice surprises.

So I feel informed and I'm still very excited for the pack. What it comes down to for me is, I have been wanting more Star Wars in my Sims game, have even looked for specific CC costumes and failed to find them, have asked a few times for more, but truly never expected to ever get any. So despite what this pack might be "lacking" to others, I'm just thrilled to be able to play this in my game and have something that I thought was very obscure and against the "popular requests", suddenly be accessible to me.

To each their own. :)

You're literally further reinforcing our point. The fact that EVEN Gamechangers, who usually do as much as they can to find justification for the price and have a slightly leaned perspective due to not actually paying anything for the pack AND make money off of it when creating videos on the content, hate on it...That says A LOT.

Plumbella doesn't just mindlessly hate on it AND this is neither the first time she's honest about how she feels about a pack nor is she the only GC to do so. People who say that just don't seem to be watching any of their content / reviews unless a forum thread specifically points them to it and they immediately happen to agree with it.

Not sure if you're agreeing or disagreeing with me but I already know gamechangers come in different types and personalities and I agree (?)

I swear I pressed the 'Post Comment' button once again, I don't know why it's double posting :neutral:

Disagreeing to the "EVEN Gamechangers ... hate on it...That says A LOT" part. No, Plumbella doesn't usually do whatever she can to justify the price and there are others who don't either. I find that a misrepresentation of reality, as explained in my previous post.

This pack wasnt my speed even when i didnt know how lacking it was. But now? Aint no way. It has NOTHING. Nothing!! Not lots to build on. So its ONLY a day trip. No new life states. The "gameplay" is more of that stale "go here , do this" with ZERO reward other than a trash ???? light saber ! & its mostly just rabbitholes and yet ANOTHER bar! Bars! Because they're just soooo fun! Sims 4 sims are nothing but a bunch of pitiful alcoholics apparently. Not that i have anything against alcoholics, i love my margaritas and Daiquiris and occasional wine, but thats really all they ever include in these worlds. Lame ???? bars!

Ugh I wish we had real alcohol in the game or at least get a buff of having too many “juices” as it’s called now. This game is teaching young kids that you can drink as many as you want without any consequences

There's a mod for that. Can't link it though, since it's considered adult.

Huh, you know, there's a mod by the same author -- Basemental -- which makes some very needed fixes the new systems brought into Eco Living. I think that's in his better known mod as well, but he released it standalone..

I am not talking about Plumbella specifically though, she is the point of the thread but I was replying to someone who is talking about Gamechangers as a whole. Many have become more negative towards the direction of this game after the announcement of this pack and that's an objective fact.

Also, I never watched a Plumbella video before this, only followed her on Twitter so I obviously can't judge the change in attitude (if there was any change to begin with).

Yeah, English Simmer is not my fave, but she did show a lot of the gameplay that I needed to see to make up an opinion. Her videos were detailed. Ultimately, she was positive about it, whereas I found it lackluster, but I hope she'll continue to enjoy it.

So what I"m getting from this, going through comments, is that people who already didn't like the pack based on what they saw, they still don't like it, and people who liked the pack based on what they saw still like it.

So the views are the same. LOL

Looks like it! Nothing has changed whatsoever. :D
