Homerpalooza: An Appreciation

As a long time player, I would have to agree with your assessment. This event kept my attention, where some of the events recently have not. It was a challenge to figure out which performers should perform where, even though I had more than enough to go around. I think a similar event with gamblers might be a good test - something along the lines of which gambler can generate the most money from the casinos.

I'd place this event in my top 5 for sure as I've loved every second of it but the only thing I was disappointed with was the story, it was a little boring after act one.

It was definitely one of my favorites. But I have to lodge my usual complaint that these events are entirely too long. 4 weeks woyld be fine, maybe 10 days or so per act, whatever. But 42 days is way too long.

But that aside, I did really enjoy the event. It wasn't terribly difficult to finish either. I noticed that among the people on my friends list, not only did almost everyone finish all 3 acts (24 out of 30 of my neighbors did all 3 acts , 3 finished 2 acts, 2 finished 1 act, and one didnt participate at all) but it was nice to see neighbors who usually dont even come close to finishing get the last prize, a few wrapped up early!


Just my $0.02 worth

A very good event for sure. Thanks, EA!

The length is was perfect for me... It's given me plenty of time to work on overhauling my town while still keeping up with performers to earn donuts (of which I need plenty after spending so many during this event).

Overall I enjoyed the event although I do believe that I am suffering from event burnout for the last week as I must admit to only doing the absolute minimum needed each day, 4 weeks was bad enough now 6 weeks, what next 8 week events.

I don't know... Takeaway the amazing premiums characters with their buildings from this event, and take a hard look at what this 6 week long event will be offering after the event is over. Wasn't one of my favourites.

Offers and events go hand in hand. They're mostly thematic content deals that often tie in to the mechanics of the event itself. They're part of the event. Separating store content from the rest of the event content for evaluation purposes is cherrypicking and not an accurate evaluation.

I liked the event. By the middle of act 2 and through act 3, I didn't push as hard but I knew I would finish. I liked most of the craftables and prizes. I am really happy to now have Bleeding Gums Murphy. I don't mind the length because I can quit the event when I am done with getting the prizes. I still have no idea how I am going to fit all the new things into my town, but I will worry about that later.

I liked it, too. Loved the craftables. Great useful decorations for future decorating. I like the stages and beverage stalls, the little KEM stand is so cool. The fences are very useful and fit well. Good stuff. Oh, and the sky lights are really great too!
