What kinds of lots do you plan on putting in Tartosa, the Wedding Stories World?

I'll probably have a mix of housing, wedding venues, & a community park at the beach.

I want to build a castle on one of the lots and either make it a rental or possibly a haunted residential where the decedents of royalty and/or pirates now live. They'll probably be occults of some kind. In fact in at least one save I want to turn the whole island into an occult world with mermaids, spellcasters, and vampires fighting for dominance.

I'll probably add a spa or a gym/spa hybrid somewhere and another rental on the beach as well. Maybe a Mediterranean themed restaurant if there's room.

I'm least interested in the wedding part of this pack, so I'll get rid of the wedding venue unless I have need of it and I'll probably use this world as a destination world for most saves.

I want to create lots that would provide a home for a mixed occult and human population. For example: a restaurant that provides plasma items for vampires, beach lots for mermaids (merfolk), certain items for spellcasters and some shaded areas for vampires on some lots, and Vampire/merfolk/spellcaster themes for some lots like occult wedding venue, bars/lounge, retail or mixed grocery store, etc. :smile:

I've just finished my Eric & Ariel's Palace (The Little Mermaid) for my Georgian Game Save. Right now they are living in Windenburg, however they & their Palace will eventually be in Tartosa in the beautiful 40x20 beach lot. ;)

I'm going to put an actual Beach Lot type on that empty beach lot so sims go in the water and do beach activities.

Sirens were originally a myth from the Mediterranean so I'm going to probably dedicate that beach lot to a Mermaid temple and see what comes to mind from there.

I like this idea, mermaids could work really well on Tartosa and if there are any lots close to the beach, I might build a few mermaid homes there, too.

Other than that, I guess I'll just build the same kind of things I build in other worlds, keeping the local architecture in mind, so; houses, spa's, parks, etc. I'm just a little bit sad there will be no gameplay for me in the pack, besides the social distancing tea-set, as I don't give two bits about in game weddings. Basically, I would be getting the pack for the world, at which point I'm wondering why they just won't release world packs for stuff pack prices and call it a day. I mean, Spa Day and Parenthood are awesome, so it's not like worlds are a must have for game packs and there's no reason they can't sell them separately.

Oh mermaids! yes I will definitely use some lot near swimmable areas for them eventually though I don't think i have premade mermaid thats less Sulani so waiting for additions i guess

One little wedding chapel and the rest will be restaurants/residential/community - and maybe a bakery! I like the odd wedding but honestly I am more excited about the world and making it into a warm Brindleton Bay. I love BB and play most of my games there or in HoB, but Tartosa looks like a nice villagy feel too and I love that. I can imagine having a sim move there from the big city, set up a little baking business, fall in love... get married in the little Chapel on the island where everyone in the town gets married, raise some kids.... like a Hallmark movie :lol:

I already have a fancy beach club wedding venue in Sulani for destination weddings, so I'll probably update that with some of the new BB items and leave it at that!

All my worlds are themed, and this one will be no different. Tartosa will be all about romance - not necessarily just weddings, since my sims rarely get married, but there will still be one or two wedding locations. I'm going to make it a beautiful place for couples to go and spend time together, whether they're married, unmarried, or only just getting to know each other. For this purpose, there will also be a rental for honeymoons and other romantic outings (but not the big one already in the game; that one will be turned into a normal residential lot).

I'm thinking about moving my brothel love lounge from San Myshuno to Tartosa as well. Not entirely sure where to put it, since it doesn't really look like any of the other buildings in the world, but then again, Tartosian architecture is already a crossbreed between various styles as it is, so why not.

The Romans would be very proud. #FreeLove
