i'm getting married soon, and i had a nightmare the other day that my wedding was as chaotic as my wedding stories pack and in my dream i ended up dying from hysterical laughter and everyone just danced around my body with a fire in the background. this pack is so bad it gives me nightmares, LITERALLY
My fiancé and I got married yesterday, not even a whole 24 hours since we got married and it POURED at 10 pm and we all got soaked had to walk through the rain, hahaha embrace the chaos! (If it happens lol)
@@jesseM138 Yea cuddling in bed is broken. If you send both sims to bed at the exact same time, there's a high possibility one will glitch and instantly wake up, some suspect its routing issues. And when they are cuddling when one sim's energy bar is full and they wake up their partner will wake up even if they arent fully rested. Sad as sims 2 and 3 this was base game and worked fine.
The most recent patch actually left my game 100% unplayable. And we couldn't figure it out but an EA answers thread and enough people having the same problem came up with the solution. The most recent patch made your game unplayable if you have off the grid activated. They are like monkeys with wrenches
Why can’t they just change sim behavior for stuff like this where they need to sit down? if they want to do playable weddings why don’t they change guest autonomy to be off unless there’s an important need to be taken care of like needing to use the bathroom…
because turning off autonomy is not really a fix, you want the sims to be alive, not to have robots or just a animation playing, you want the autonomy to be balanced, and have a simulation, where theey can go up sometimes and do other stuff, turning autonomy off and playing just animations is not a simulation anymore and that defeats the purpose of a simulation game, you want balance the autonomy systsem so they would only get up in situations that make sense, like needing to go to the bathroom etc or maybe having to go to work.
@@Raphaeltheslayer well yeah, because when you overdesign but you're on a schedule, eventually time runs out and you've built an overcomplicated and incredibly flawed system.
The fact that the bride was sitting there holding her pee, waiting to throw the bouquet while Satch went on a rant, was getting me yelling at my screen to help the poor sim throw her flowers already =)
Yeah to be fair to the pack, it does work somewhat better if you just slow down and take it easy, think things through and don't run the game at a constant 3X speed, frantically clicking stuff at random all the time. That said, I agree with Satch that weddings would have worked better as a cutscene with no autonomy or interactions. There's just too much micro-management and babysitting involved in getting a group of sims to behave in a coherent and realistic way.
@@JimmiG84Maybe the cutscene would have been better, but let's be honest. If they had done the cutscene, the simmers would have said that they were lazy, which I agree with most of the simmers that they are as regards the bug fixes at least.
Like Pixel, he spent weeks joining in on the “we’re upset with EA’s behaviour” tour and then the other day randomly came out with a video about how there’s an amazing sale going on with the games right now and we should hurry to buy before it ends. The comments were like wtf dude it doesn’t matter how cheap a game is, broken is broken
@@demi8890honestly I used to love pixelade for his transparent videos and how he’d mention that he wasn’t okay with simmers just saying the game was okay when it wasn’t.
"The Sims 4 has so many players that we don't want to turn our back on." - The Sims 4 has so many players who hoped for a better experience with the next iteration where maybe... MAYBE... EA would have learned from their mistakes instead of doubling down on them.
This is what I don’t get. Sims 2 weddings were better than this. How is it their old games can mange too pull it off but the next game can’t. Ridiculous
Not me getting hopeful that cuddling was a base game update, only to learn EA locked it behind a paywall (it comes with Lovestruck). Silly me for expecting base game to have simple interactions that were available in Sims 2!
I noticed that you were individually sending guests home in this video, Satch, so in case you didn't know, I thought I'd mention that you can click on your sim and select "Send Everyone Home" and your sim will appear to pretend to be angry, causing all guests to leave the lot.
To make it work they need to add a couple lines exclusive to this event, and only for that event: 1- disable all sort of decor likes/dislikes, so that sim wont leave their seat or else to judge an item, like in your video. 2- fix the fly as a bath for vampires, and for that matter disable all kind of occults speed/transportation ways, and instead have them walk normal like sims. 3- disable furry for werewolves 4- disable werewolves howling when they are task for doing a wedding action 5- reenable selecting a normal table and placing the cake... it was working before, its not anymore. 6- fix the bug from Lovestruck where couple lose very quickly their romance bar for no apparent reason... my sims litteraly married and this was happening they went on the red bar even during the ceremony... 7- cake decoration removed while choosing the cake as wedding cake... why and also why was I not able to place the cake on a normal dining table, while it was selected.
I know it's a typo but "fly as bath" for vampires made me imagine vlad morphing into a claw footed bathtub, animorphs style then being animated like beauty and the beast
Every time ea has a new update I'm more and more grateful that my game is fully disconnected from the internet. Never getting to use the gallery is a small price to pay for half the glitches and significantly fewer crashes. I haven't had a crash in months maybe a year even. It's hysterical that a cracked version works so much better than the official
@@Jute511 yeah true I usually wait a few weeks before updating so I can have all my mods and let EA undo what horrors they've most recently introduced. My whole laptop is disconnected for weeks at a time though because of shitty service as well
Perhaps they fixed it, but there is SO many other glaring bugs right now. Infants who is miles from the house upon load in, Queueing tasks not really working, Fishing at the signs in whole of Sulani doesn't work (you can use boat and/or Trap to fish), harvestables are back at resetting to dirtpiles again, somehow my sim gets a fear of drowning from watering a plant or being out in the slightest rain - and that happens a LOT. Sim's are still more thirsty than a camel in the middle of Sahara (constant grabbing drinks), and the most annoying, sometimes needs decay way roo fast.. just like romance. I mean... I love that they are fixing stuff, but it would be nice if they would fix the gamebreaking bugs first.
thought i was the only one with some of these issues! the infant thing is so frustrating, it shows that they're being picked up but they're across the world and invisible 🙃 and the crop plots' growth state that keep resetting.. and endless loading issues.. ugh..
i tried making the wedding cakes and they really glitch out before they just magically turn into cakes, and the fact that it has to be the gourmet skill to make it, is pretty confusing
I once got everyone to sit down and watch my sims get married but they all simultaneously started to sigh and grunt and be annoyed at my sims getting married that was so. fucking. wild.
@@aileenc363 ahhh it's soooo random right? And also so weird that they still get married even though everyone's annoyed??😂😂 but it's very on brand for the sims haha
Yesssss Satch, they need to bring back cutscenes again. That was one of the Sims 2 special features and funniest features. it would at least make up for alot of things such as cars. We don't have cars but it would be nice for when you first move in to a house or an empty lot, we get a cutscene of your sims getting out of a taxi/uber with suitcases. Cutscenes would bring this game to life.
I always captured a video of my sims cutscenes when they happened (and then added them as custom TV channel to the game) as I loved to watch all my sims in these situations. Even if they were basically the same scenraios all the time. But the faces of my sims were different, you know what I mean. It was so cute. To see their first kiss, proposing, getting married, giving birth. Oh, and first woo hoo as well. Always so cute. I miss that. Like the whole Sims 2. I messed up one of my saves so gave up playing for a few years, but may actually come back there as Sims 4 is annoying me
@@MissAlraris I never knew you could doo that, thats such a fun idea lol. That really would be dope if we can record cutscenes and watch them back as a home movie
As someone who's been married, I actually think what you showed seems like an accurate wedding: You plan it out perfectly and then your guests don't fully behave to said plans and you realize its more complicated than expected :P
I recently bought My Wedding Stories because of the last patch, they made it so youre not forced to do the gamepack wedding , you can have the regular base game wedding as an option. I really wanted the build/buy items from the gamepack but didnt wanna ruin weddings for my game lol. That was the smartest thing theyve ever done, I havent even tried the gamepack weddings yet
Really? You can choose the base game event owning this pack? Thank you! Now I can finally consider buying this thing, as I really want the build mode too :D
It needed to be fixed, cause of the death pack. Funerals will be on the same system as my wedding stories. As the copy systems😂 Imagen a flirty sim on a funerap😂
As far as I know they still haven't fixed the black photos bug after putting photos in storage despite claiming to have fixed it over and over and over again so I doubt it's actually fixed.
I wanted to letcha know I have figured out the system for the formal dresses! To select the wedding outift it has to be the 1st outfit in formal! not the second one. Two the wedding cake I used to just place on table then had the option to select as wedding cake! . Will be editing as i go. edit #1: I am pretty sure for them to wear red they have to have an outfit with red and flagged as polished. So best way to do that is to edit their clothes before hand. I would make sue its the first outfit in that category as well. I am assuming it would be formal!
@@Raphaeltheslayerwell, so are real weddings 😂 I keep my weddings small but, yes it’s tedious if you want it to, “look”, perfect. I only worry about the wedding parties outfits for photo reasons and only 1-2 guests
I had a wedding yesterday and had the guests wear red. It actually worked, they had random red outfits (a lot of males wearing the Island Living skirt) except that it was a heat wave and so some put on their hot weather wear right away. Turns out they were the smart ones, two sims died of heat during the ceremony.
@@Rabellaka. If you don't want Sims changing due to weather you just have to put a thermostat on any community lot you send them to, that way the air conditioner automatically comes on :)
For the bouquet throw you need to throw to one of the persons aligned for throw, there is one interaction available. It is not automatically performed. I usually select a person from the family.
It would probably be a lot of work on EA’s part but I think a good idea would be to be able to select in the event planing what things you would like to happen in what order and then all you have to click would be “start wedding” where most things would be automated. And to fix the seating issue with the arch, maybe something like the sink update where you can assign the different chair functions if there is an arch on the lot. Of course this is a pipe dream but a person can wish
I’d even take a ceremony rabbit hole, you can plan all other events but, the wedding Arch is a rabbit hole and you choose wedding photo poses and receive them w/ the marriage certificate or something. They really just gave us the most stressful aspects of planning a wedding and none of the fun.
I think that the "Serve Tea" wedding tradition may require you to actually serve tea to at least one other sim, not just yourself, and it's weird because it can't let you serve tea to multiple sims at once or even one at a time without repeating the serve tea interaction. I imagine that it's some kind of cultural thing to bring cups of tea to people, but couldn't they also have just a "Call To Meal" style thing for it? I think that would save some headaches myself.
I think this pack could have been cool if they added the ability to hire a photographer. And then add more poses to the camera ! Options for group pictures with more than 2 sims
When MWS first came out, I I didn't understand why the wedding rehersual wasn't used as a way for players to pick the order of sims interactions with the actual wedding being the player hitting the play button and watching everything play out.
if theres not at least 1 sim autonomously doing push ups is is really a sims 4 wedding?? either that or home decorator makes the guests criticize every piece of decor in the room when my sims are exchanging vows due to their randomized preferences
I was playing sims yesterday and my vet clinic was broken. If a sim owned a clinic and a play with another family, I can’t take pets to the vet cause there’s no vets available 😒
Bro a cut scene and memories are all I ask for!! I miss sims 2 cut scenes and i would love just for the options of choosing the dress and the outfits, buying the flowers, and then just watching the cut scene and being able to create a memory for legacy game play. What happened to the EA developers?
The cake you need to click on and select set as wedding cake. It needs to be done by the host. Sometimes you have to take it out the inventory to do it.
I miss the cut scenes from sims 2! I remember one time my child was getting taken away and my sim was giving birth at the same time and the cut scene I got was insane! They took my child and my newborn and it ended with my sim looking super sad and staring at the floor
The recent update made it so my game wouldn't even load at all (just infinite loading screen) until I switched it back to DirectX 9. I haven't even tried to test out major pack features because I'm worried I'll totally ruin a save. What joy.
I tried a wedding yesterday, it went ok I guess. Yup, there's always at least one sim who won't "behave"...My biggest issue was they were all seated fine, but my officiant never went up to the arch, and as soon as the sims started their vows, everyone got up from their seats and gathered around them. It was strange. I cued them to sit back down, and they did, and then it was fine. But there's always something when you try to do a wedding, it never goes perfectly. I guess that is realistic....
omg i havent played the sims 4 in ages but every time i think about getting back into it, one of your videos pops up and im reminded "oh yeah most of my stuff doesnt work anyways"
Your idea of how the wedding pack should have been is really good - but of course that's not gonna happen. I have gotten the pack though.... and I am going to try but I think I won't get married that way a lot.... At least we now have the choice of the old way, which I prefer - but I wanted Tartosa... and I got it on sale. (I never buy packs unless they are on sale) and I have waited many years because I wanted it fixed. But.... as you proved here, there might be a few fixes but basically the whole 'situation' is too chaotic and hard to micro manage.... Oh well - we are used to it by now, aren't we....
I WAS going to buy this pack when it first came out, until I heard how messed up it was. N' I still have to wonder if it is still? Even with the update. 🤔🤔🤔
That's so weird the Sims keep getting out of bed! I don't think mine have done that🤔 For wedding it should automatically turn off autonomy of guests. They need to fix the damn getting up, doing exercises etc!!
I'm just gonna leave this here I see alot of people don't use pause. When things are overwhelming and everyone's moving around and not listening, and I'm deciding which interactions to click on still, I pause so everyone can just stop and shut up for a second 😂 Pause while making decisions on what to click on next, or your sims will go off and do something else.
As far as I can remember, wedding cakes don't fit in the displayer but they can be placed on a counter or table and be set for sale and they last long. What is glitched for me is nectars in the POV of the consumer. When I place from Gallery, no nectar is for sale. I have to select an owner, set everything for sale and then sell the store. If the store has an owner no employees will show up when I visit.
I mean honestly from this video everything worked out pretty well even though there were so many goals and the wedding venue is huge. What I learned from playing sims 4 is that if you become more straightforward with the buildmode, like make it more obvious for sims what to do, the gameplay is much more stress-free. Like if you want them to really gather in one place, it’s better to not build 3 other places on the lot. Or make it possible to shut the doors. I know it’s still shitty and the game could have been smarter but for here and now solutions that’s what I do. And once everyone managed to sit down together I always pause for choosing interactions, don’t test their limits of sitting down haha
Can EA please hire you!!!! I’d love the cutscenes, I hate how micromanaging the pack is even without any of the ridiculous bugs! I swear you make it so damn easy for them by giving them really fair feedback and telling them how they could actually improve things in ways that seem really doable imho (I know eff all about game coding so take my opinion with a grain of salt 😂)
😂classic! TBT I bought this pack on sale for the world ( which I like the Italian beach village vibe) and the decorations. I have yet to marry any of my sims because of what I see from these kinds of vids 😂 cut scenes would definitely make it more special and amazing. I loved past cut scenes of engagements and the altar moments ❤ EA listen to Satch!!! ❤😂🎉
not even a cutszene, i would love if they jumble some interaktions together. Like push "go down isle" and they would all do it in their specific order. cutting cake feed hubby and call to meal together. small things like that would help.
I just happened to get my sims married last night and it was so chaotic. I left the cake at home in the fridge and they had their First Slice in their kitchen while one was still in their outdoor wear that they automatically changed into when they went home. I couldn’t even invite anyone, not even their daughter who I wanted to be their flower pal. But I guess I got it over with and don’t have to try that again any time soon 😂
8:34 yeah this is the thing. This pack would've been 1000x better had they just had it so that you set individual sims as certain roles.....and sims 2 style it just played a CUTSCENE of the wedding itself. Then once the cutscene is done, it'd just cut back to the party itself where you can dance, eat, socialiise and whatnot.
Maybe they will hate watching this and making a 'game pack' of a career in party events. Where they do the planning of the scenes like you said for weddings, birthdays, graduations, and more. Only if you own the packs that it would be compatible with. Graduation videos only if you own high school years. Weddings if you own my wedding stories. Birthdays would be base game. So they would make it depending on what other packs you own how fun and varied the career would be. Then a person can choose to do an event where they control or an event that is cinematic like the sims 2, but hopefully not as loud as the cut scenes were in the sims 2.
It should've been a scripted event that you could plan and pick different effects at different prices; like 3-5 different tiers photographers, musicians, cakes, scenery effects, etc. Butterflies being cheaper than white doves etc. And depending on your choices it would either be elaborate, cosy or perhaps disastrous. And if any of the to-be-weds had any other romantically interests who attended, perhaps they could disrupt the ceremony, and you could then either stay with your partner or run away with the lover. All played out as a few cutscenes and interactables. And then you'd get an album in your inventory with all the scripted pictures of the day and a saved video in recordings showing how it all went down. That would've added way more fun, much less micromanaging, and brought back some much needed TS humour and chaos, which TS4 is sorely missing.
Your officiant was actually there. My officiant wasn't present until I clicked exchange vows with officiant and kiss.. he was the grooms brother! This was right after the update.
honestly feel like my wedding story would be more fun if we turned off the sims and attempted to organise a random persons wedding at least then the shit thrown in our face will be warm
I would’ve loved it if they just replaced weddings with a cutscene or two and then you just play the party after Edit: I wrote this before satch said it
I just bought it because of the fixes and I enjoyed it a lot. I can’t wait to plan the next wedding in my legacy. It worked great for me besides the cake disappearing lol but that’s an easy fix.
I imagine a world where you could hire a wedding planner and that sim would run around telling people to sit down and filling the buffet instead of you 😂
The definition of madness is trying to see if My Wedding Stories is fixed yet over and over, expecting it to actually be fixed.
😂😂😂😂😂

At most, I may expect that some glitches get corrected, and a few bugs squashed.

We don't have cars but it would be nice for when you first move in to a house or an empty lot, we get a cutscene of your sims getting out of a taxi/uber with suitcases. Cutscenes would bring this game to life.
I always captured a video of my sims cutscenes when they happened (and then added them as custom TV channel to the game) as I loved to watch all my sims in these situations. Even if they were basically the same scenraios all the time. But the faces of my sims were different, you know what I mean. It was so cute. To see their first kiss, proposing, getting married, giving birth. Oh, and first woo hoo as well. Always so cute. I miss that. Like the whole Sims 2. I messed up one of my saves so gave up playing for a few years, but may actually come back there as Sims 4 is annoying me
@@MissAlraris I never knew you could doo that, thats such a fun idea lol. That really would be dope if we can record cutscenes and watch them back as a home movie
WHY DID THE BRIDE SLOUCH UP THE AISLE LIKE THAT
elder
Done with this shit.
As someone who's been married, I actually think what you showed seems like an accurate wedding: You plan it out perfectly and then your guests don't fully behave to said plans and you realize its more complicated than expected :P
I recently bought My Wedding Stories because of the last patch, they made it so youre not forced to do the gamepack wedding , you can have the regular base game wedding as an option. I really wanted the build/buy items from the gamepack but didnt wanna ruin weddings for my game lol. That was the smartest thing theyve ever done, I havent even tried the gamepack weddings yet
Really? You can choose the base game event owning this pack? Thank you! Now I can finally consider buying this thing, as I really want the build mode too :D
It needed to be fixed, cause of the death pack. Funerals will be on the same system as my wedding stories. As the copy systems😂
Imagen a flirty sim on a funerap😂
Gardening is still f'ed. I just want to grow without cheating!
The weeds are so bad! My sim can weed and weed all day, and still, the weeds are there!!
i love your idea about the cut scene with the career. that makes so much more sense, and it allows them to get their coin without pissing us off.
A very good comedy. EA should use it in The Movie.
oh YES!
As far as I know they still haven't fixed the black photos bug after putting photos in storage despite claiming to have fixed it over and over and over again so I doubt it's actually fixed.
it is fixed, when placing photos down they look broken, but once placed down they work
I wanted to letcha know I have figured out the system for the formal dresses! To select the wedding outift it has to be the 1st outfit in formal! not the second one. Two the wedding cake I used to just place on table then had the option to select as wedding cake! . Will be editing as i go.
edit #1: I am pretty sure for them to wear red they have to have an outfit with red and flagged as polished. So best way to do that is to edit their clothes before hand. I would make sue its the first outfit in that category as well. I am assuming it would be formal!
That’s very tedious… why can’t they generate an outfit like that for them?
@@Raphaeltheslayerwell, so are real weddings 😂 I keep my weddings small but, yes it’s tedious if you want it to, “look”, perfect. I only worry about the wedding parties outfits for photo reasons and only 1-2 guests
I had a wedding yesterday and had the guests wear red. It actually worked, they had random red outfits (a lot of males wearing the Island Living skirt) except that it was a heat wave and so some put on their hot weather wear right away. Turns out they were the smart ones, two sims died of heat during the ceremony.
@@Rabellaka. If you don't want Sims changing due to weather you just have to put a thermostat on any community lot you send them to, that way the air conditioner automatically comes on :)
@@gracelynnblack ughh😭that sounds like a nightmare I can’t stand things that require 1: people. 2: peoples idiocy.
_✨Alegedlly✨_
Dang EA should REALLY listen to you cause you have some GREAT ideas. I Love the idea of a cut scene for the wedding.
For the bouquet throw you need to throw to one of the persons aligned for throw, there is one interaction available. It is not automatically performed. I usually select a person from the family.
It would probably be a lot of work on EA’s part but I think a good idea would be to be able to select in the event planing what things you would like to happen in what order and then all you have to click would be “start wedding” where most things would be automated. And to fix the seating issue with the arch, maybe something like the sink update where you can assign the different chair functions if there is an arch on the lot. Of course this is a pipe dream but a person can wish
I’d even take a ceremony rabbit hole, you can plan all other events but, the wedding Arch is a rabbit hole and you choose wedding photo poses and receive them w/ the marriage certificate or something. They really just gave us the most stressful aspects of planning a wedding and none of the fun.
Took almost 10 years for another life simulation game to wake them up. Hilarious to me.
The seasons box for weddings is such a good idea.
I heard the hopping out of bed is due to LoveStruck. They’ll hop out until one cuddles another. 😂
I think that the "Serve Tea" wedding tradition may require you to actually serve tea to at least one other sim, not just yourself, and it's weird because it can't let you serve tea to multiple sims at once or even one at a time without repeating the serve tea interaction. I imagine that it's some kind of cultural thing to bring cups of tea to people, but couldn't they also have just a "Call To Meal" style thing for it? I think that would save some headaches myself.
I think this pack could have been cool if they added the ability to hire a photographer. And then add more poses to the camera ! Options for group pictures with more than 2 sims
When MWS first came out, I I didn't understand why the wedding rehersual wasn't used as a way for players to pick the order of sims interactions with the actual wedding being the player hitting the play button and watching everything play out.
My Wedding Stories is just slightly LESS broken than before, but, it's still broken.
if theres not at least 1 sim autonomously doing push ups is is really a sims 4 wedding??
either that or home decorator makes the guests criticize every piece of decor in the room when my sims are exchanging vows due to their randomized preferences
I was playing sims yesterday and my vet clinic was broken. If a sim owned a clinic and a play with another family, I can’t take pets to the vet cause there’s no vets available 😒
Bro a cut scene and memories are all I ask for!! I miss sims 2 cut scenes and i would love just for the options of choosing the dress and the outfits, buying the flowers, and then just watching the cut scene and being able to create a memory for legacy game play. What happened to the EA developers?
The cake you need to click on and select set as wedding cake. It needs to be done by the host. Sometimes you have to take it out the inventory to do it.
I miss the cut scenes from sims 2! I remember one time my child was getting taken away and my sim was giving birth at the same time and the cut scene I got was insane! They took my child and my newborn and it ended with my sim looking super sad and staring at the floor
i'm sorry but LMAOOOOO
The recent update made it so my game wouldn't even load at all (just infinite loading screen) until I switched it back to DirectX 9. I haven't even tried to test out major pack features because I'm worried I'll totally ruin a save. What joy.
This is why the sims 2 had it right with cutscenes. Even if this pack worked, theres just too much micromanagement for it to be enjoyable.
Oh I commented this partway through, but Satch ended up saying it themselves 😂
What a bummer, because the world has such a wonderful vibe. 😔
I tried a wedding yesterday, it went ok I guess. Yup, there's always at least one sim who won't "behave"...My biggest issue was they were all seated fine, but my officiant never went up to the arch, and as soon as the sims started their vows, everyone got up from their seats and gathered around them. It was strange. I cued them to sit back down, and they did, and then it was fine. But there's always something when you try to do a wedding, it never goes perfectly. I guess that is realistic....
Whenever I have my sims get married, I invite a bunch of people over and have them elope. It is such a pain with the checklist.
“Oh, DEAR. He’s having a conversation with the vAsze, ok” LOL 😂
I’ve been too busy building, guess I should check out some game play lol.
So chaotic. I’m so glad Inzo weddings are cutscene. I have sims 4 PTSD🙄
omg i havent played the sims 4 in ages but every time i think about getting back into it, one of your videos pops up and im reminded "oh yeah most of my stuff doesnt work anyways"
Your idea of how the wedding pack should have been is really good - but of course that's not gonna happen. I have gotten the pack though.... and I am going to try but I think I won't get married that way a lot.... At least we now have the choice of the old way, which I prefer - but I wanted Tartosa... and I got it on sale. (I never buy packs unless they are on sale) and I have waited many years because I wanted it fixed. But.... as you proved here, there might be a few fixes but basically the whole 'situation' is too chaotic and hard to micro manage.... Oh well - we are used to it by now, aren't we....
I WAS going to buy this pack when it first came out, until I heard how messed up it was. N' I still have to wonder if it is still? Even with the update. 🤔🤔🤔
Satch did you notice people already upload the grim battlestart things on gallery 😂
Lol I knew they would! Always trust simmers will find a way
Ah, the Gallery barely works for me. 😢 I can’t favourite or follow anything/anyone.
cnt blv we’re stuck with this broken game forever
The fact that Dine Out actually works better than My Wedding Stories says a lot about this pack.
Is it just me or the most recent patch left some lots unplayable? Like, I really can't access them with mods without entering an endless loading loop
same here! specifically the 64x64 lot in the horse world doesn't load, freezes my entire computer every time so i've given up
That's so weird the Sims keep getting out of bed! I don't think mine have done that🤔 For wedding it should automatically turn off autonomy of guests. They need to fix the damn getting up, doing exercises etc!!
I'm just gonna leave this here
I see alot of people don't use pause. When things are overwhelming and everyone's moving around and not listening, and I'm deciding which interactions to click on still, I pause so everyone can just stop and shut up for a second 😂 Pause while making decisions on what to click on next, or your sims will go off and do something else.
They way she’s was trying to throw the flowers for AGES as you were recapping made me ugly laugh
As far as I can remember, wedding cakes don't fit in the displayer but they can be placed on a counter or table and be set for sale and they last long. What is glitched for me is nectars in the POV of the consumer. When I place from Gallery, no nectar is for sale. I have to select an owner, set everything for sale and then sell the store. If the store has an owner no employees will show up when I visit.
This was utter chaos 😂
Actually after the update I had experienced a glitch and really slow performance. And I haven't had it for a long time
I hope they fixed the stay over guest's making white cakes constantly.
This was my first impression of weeding stories. Honestly pleasantly surprised. I have heard so much bad I was expecting a game crash or something 😅
I mean honestly from this video everything worked out pretty well even though there were so many goals and the wedding venue is huge. What I learned from playing sims 4 is that if you become more straightforward with the buildmode, like make it more obvious for sims what to do, the gameplay is much more stress-free. Like if you want them to really gather in one place, it’s better to not build 3 other places on the lot. Or make it possible to shut the doors. I know it’s still shitty and the game could have been smarter but for here and now solutions that’s what I do. And once everyone managed to sit down together I always pause for choosing interactions, don’t test their limits of sitting down haha
Can EA please hire you!!!! I’d love the cutscenes, I hate how micromanaging the pack is even without any of the ridiculous bugs! I swear you make it so damn easy for them by giving them really fair feedback and telling them how they could actually improve things in ways that seem really doable imho (I know eff all about game coding so take my opinion with a grain of salt 😂)
😂classic! TBT I bought this pack on sale for the world ( which I like the Italian beach village vibe) and the decorations. I have yet to marry any of my sims because of what I see from these kinds of vids 😂 cut scenes would definitely make it more special and amazing. I loved past cut scenes of engagements and the altar moments ❤ EA listen to Satch!!! ❤😂🎉
Everyones just stopped talking about inzoi 😭
to be fair, there’s nothing to talk about until there’s more news. We’re still waiting for them to announce when early access will open up.
There’s nothing to discuss until it drops more or actually drops. We’ve already seen the gameplays in early mode. Same with paralives.
What is there to talk about? It's not released yet and the demo creator isn't even available.
We also have Paralives. I hate when people forget about it
not even a cutszene, i would love if they jumble some interaktions together. Like push "go down isle" and they would all do it in their specific order. cutting cake feed hubby and call to meal together. small things like that would help.
I just happened to get my sims married last night and it was so chaotic. I left the cake at home in the fridge and they had their First Slice in their kitchen while one was still in their outdoor wear that they automatically changed into when they went home. I couldn’t even invite anyone, not even their daughter who I wanted to be their flower pal. But I guess I got it over with and don’t have to try that again any time soon 😂
That sums up the whole sims 4 experience: "micro manage madness."
8:34 yeah this is the thing. This pack would've been 1000x better had they just had it so that you set individual sims as certain roles.....and sims 2 style it just played a CUTSCENE of the wedding itself. Then once the cutscene is done, it'd just cut back to the party itself where you can dance, eat, socialiise and whatnot.
6:20 cake ordeal loooool I hate it too but I LOVE you and your commentary!!! 😂😂😂 The fails in this video made me laugh so hard.
"we're gonna be a clown" ..... Satch is ON FIRE today! LOL
Maybe they will hate watching this and making a 'game pack' of a career in party events. Where they do the planning of the scenes like you said for weddings, birthdays, graduations, and more. Only if you own the packs that it would be compatible with. Graduation videos only if you own high school years. Weddings if you own my wedding stories. Birthdays would be base game. So they would make it depending on what other packs you own how fun and varied the career would be. Then a person can choose to do an event where they control or an event that is cinematic like the sims 2, but hopefully not as loud as the cut scenes were in the sims 2.
thanks forcheking this pack after those all "fixes", it's good to know it's still completly broken so no bother to even consider buing it
They finally listened to you!
Every wedding I’ve tried to have took like 10 sim hours because of the sims doing random stuff…. Exactly as you experienced
It should've been a scripted event that you could plan and pick different effects at different prices; like 3-5 different tiers photographers, musicians, cakes, scenery effects, etc. Butterflies being cheaper than white doves etc. And depending on your choices it would either be elaborate, cosy or perhaps disastrous. And if any of the to-be-weds had any other romantically interests who attended, perhaps they could disrupt the ceremony, and you could then either stay with your partner or run away with the lover. All played out as a few cutscenes and interactables. And then you'd get an album in your inventory with all the scripted pictures of the day and a saved video in recordings showing how it all went down. That would've added way more fun, much less micromanaging, and brought back some much needed TS humour and chaos, which TS4 is sorely missing.
4:28 I think it’s a glitch with that specific bed, because my sims can sleep in all the other beds, but that one my sims just get out of all the time.
Everyone scattering when the bouquet toss came up. 😂
Your officiant was actually there. My officiant wasn't present until I clicked exchange vows with officiant and kiss.. he was the grooms brother! This was right after the update.
Me: doubtful.
"they made their bed and still decided to lie in it" is not the saying but I will definitely be using it my real life now, that's hilarious!
honestly feel like my wedding story would be more fun if we turned off the sims and attempted to organise a random persons wedding at least then the shit thrown in our face will be warm
I would’ve loved it if they just replaced weddings with a cutscene or two and then you just play the party after
Edit: I wrote this before satch said it
I just bought it because of the fixes and I enjoyed it a lot. I can’t wait to plan the next wedding in my legacy. It worked great for me besides the cake disappearing lol but that’s an easy fix.
you can sell wedding cakes with get to work satch, you’ve always been able to
I made a bakery with the get to work pack 3 months ago and I was actually able to sell wedding cakes.
I imagine a world where you could hire a wedding planner and that sim would run around telling people to sit down and filling the buffet instead of you 😂
Satch 3 days ago: apparently they fixed My Wedding Stories, too bad I’m never playing with that pack again
Satch now:
