That possible theme/ focus: Discover University.

When I read the leaked title, Discover University, what came to mind that this pack will be about self-discovery for your sims.
I've always played university as a life changing, life focusing stage of life for my young sims.

I imagine the tag line for this pack being:
Discover who you are. Discover University!

  • I am just excited and cannot wait to see what all it brings! I am really hoping it will add things for kids/teens as well as the young adults. I really want there to be more things happening for the kids/teens as well, since there really isn't much, like adding a Prom or school dance (I love adding formal wear shops in my games but kids and teens really do not have need other than going to a fancy restaurant), and kids need something too that even if they need a rabbit hole, I would just be grateful for some other activities to add for them. In fact, rabbit holes can be helpful when you have a full family, leaves one less sim to take care of for the moment, tho it would be more awesome if it was an actual event you could take your sim to. Just can't wait to get more info on this!
  • I had to change the title as people are being too literal about name good/bad than what the name might suggest about the game play.

    I don't care what they call packs as long as the pack is well done and fleshed out. They can call it Peewee's Big Campus Adventure for all I care, just make it good and don't leave out obvious stuff for stuff that might be used once or twice and then forgotten about.


    @Dannydanbo i agree 100000x's

    I think if the pack ends up being called "Discover University" it would be about self-discovery and finding yourself, which irl uinveristy is. I think it would work.

    I like the tag "Discover University". It reminds me of the Sims2 University game bcuz you only controlled your sim outside of class around the campus exploring the Sim. Note that I said exploring the Sim not the world. It was a pack that gave you the young adult stage where you could freestyle for the first time. Even though Sims2 freestyle was focused on instruments I like the idea of freestyle as you learn to discover your own skills and improve them and those skills become part of your personality. Then you have the obvious you could run wild and risk failing and paying the consequences of that or work on your studies improving your Sim to get that degree.

    I know IRL I changed my major 3 times trying to decide what I really want to do so in a way Discover University really is a part of discovery a piece of yourself in what it is you want and what you want to do. And choosing to not go to a college or University is also a life choice of discovery.
  • How your Sim embraces college life is up to them. They can study all night to complete homework or chill out and sleep in. And, with activities like juice pong, juggling a soccer ball, and hanging out with roommates, taking a break has never been so fun! Plus, your Sim can join school organizations like robotics, debate, art, or even a mysterious secret society. As the school year progresses, Sims become their best selves and discover who they are meant to be.


    Self Expression: College is all about discovering who you’re meant to be, and your Sims can really experiment with their personal style. It all starts with dorm room decor that reflects their personality. From posters to mini-fridges (for all-important midnight snacking), you can make their room perfect for studying or just hanging out. And when it comes to personal style, send them to class dressed to impress or sporting comfy sweats – it’s all up to you!


    Those are EA's own words that gets at what I was hoping what the name means for our sims and game play.
    It remains to see if going to Uni feels life changing for our sims though.
