Yeah this team just isn’t getting it anymore. They seem to be living in their own little Sims world of stuff nobody asked for. At this point I’m convinced they have stretched the base of the game to its limits and can no longer build upon it, so they have to keep recycling systems already in the game to come up with a new pack. Disappointing, very disappointing. The furniture looks nice but that’s all I’ve taken away from that car crash of a trailer.

I've been wanting this pack for a while now, actually, and I'm happy it's finally here. :smile:

It's interesting seeing the reactions, this one seems to be the most divisive yet. 50% seem to be really excited and think it's the best thing ever as they love building and the other 50% are mad about it as theyre just so sick of building packs and the game turning into a build simulator rather than a life simulator

Hmm... From the trailer it literally looks like the same active job from Sims 3 Ambitions (which is only ONE out of the FIVE ones we got in that pack) without much added. From this trailer, I think it's just going like a Stuff Pack, having ONE new gameplay feature (the active career) but with much more new Build/Buy objects than usual to 'justify' it being a game pack.

I am interested to know more about this new appliance. Hope it can make pizza.

Ya know, the girl's mom was making those brownies...

While I feel like it seems light in content for a GP, I do have to mention that I LOVE the concept and how it ties Live mode and Build/Buy mode and gives B/B a goal and rewards.

I'm not much of a builder because I never have any goal in mind, but having restrictions and a well-defined goal to work toward sounds like a nice way to get me into building in ways I've never done before.

Seems to me that every "job" will have preferences that I'm going to guess will be randomized. Sims themselves won't have them outside of the career mode. I'll also guess no changes will stay after the job.

Hmmm it might be randomized for pre-existing sims, but they put such an emphasis on sims' diverse preferences that if it's not related to the mystery node in CAS I'm rioting :D
I'm expecting it to be a base game feature but each future packs adds new preferences (and dislikes?), like clubs activities.

Iron Seagull is officially the only GC I trust.

I would have actually been excited if this came with an additional Stylist active career or something that would use the same "gig" system they developed for the pack but in a different career path to keep it more interesting and give more content.

The only thing I'm hoping for is that this has some kind of new world.

If there was a new world, they wouldn't show us the Pancakes and the Goths in their well-known houses all the time ...

If this pack is only about visiting (probably always the same 4) households and building new rooms with random outcome, I'm disappointed. If it brings an elaborate preference system that really has consequences, I like it.

Hmm... there are many new NPC in the full trailer, so maybe we are getting a world too.

If there would be a new world they would show us and it would probably be in the key features so i don't expect any world. I think they decided to add more BB stuff to cover lack of gameplay elements.

Yeah we are getting Preferences :D
