I'm the Biker Scout trooper! Part of a costuming group that does charity events and things.

So yeah, it relates.

Your life isn't a game.... But good on you on for the charity events and all that ❤️

So, what is the difference between playing around with a lightsabers with your kids in real life, and your Sims playing around with lightsabers in the game?

I think it's quite sad that the community react in such a childish way. We know practically nothing yet. The younger simmers might be disappointed though - they are used with getting all shades of pastels, and now they get a space theme that was new in the 80s (?) and that is kind of nostalgia for the senior simmers. Poor kids ;)

I suppose I’m considered a “senior simmer” since I’m over the age of 30. Although we practically don’t know much I do know enough to determine this isn’t for me or my play style. This, even though I am a Star Wars fan. Love the movies and avidly played SWTOR. If I’m nostalgic I’ll watch the movies or play the games.

On top of that I have no plans on buying anything from this team until they fix the bugs that ruin my gaming experience. I’m not the type of individual to go on a rampage over it, I don’t like it, won’t buy it. I do see the positive, more money saved that can be used for other games I play.

The lightsaber with my "kids" isn't real and is based from a particular movie sequel which is sci-fi adventurous movie genre. The game is a life simulation? Not a movie sequel.

Again if this game pack is for you then that's great! I'm just stating a general opinion based on why a part of the community dislikes the new game pack

Lightsabers. Full stop. Period. But also exclamation marks (!!!! - yes, plural). Can I state this as a general opinion on why part of the community likes the new game pack?

Also, is it too much to hope for a new death: death by lightsaber? Oh, oh, even better, do we get a Sarlacc?

I am disappointed to say the least. My honest opinion is that if I wanted to play Star Wars I would have bought THAT game and not Sims. I was hoping for a pack that would add to gameplay not create a game I didn't want to play to begin with.

@Finbar659 No worries, I was just curious. To me, both things are in the make-believe genre and something to do for fun :)

It's a "life simulation" with ghosts, vampires, mermaids, wizards, plant people and, yes, aliens. I don't think that's it.

People will disagree with you saying "but but these have lore and people asked for vampires, aliens, and mermaids...we didn't ask for this." >> but you make a DANG good point and I agree.

I do see your point of view as the game isn't all realism. I was sort of stating life simulation as a form of birth to death with unique choices, lifestyle and abilities. These vampires, mermaids, aliens are all life. They are born, they grow and they eventually die. How can movie sequel game pack be a life simulation?

(I haven't watched star wars so that could be why I'm not understanding it)
