      @AnarchyPenguin 4 года назад +159

      It’s like they looked at the Star Wars movies and went “hmm, what’s the most iconic part we can add?” And then they chose the windows movie maker wipes from the original movies while the pack is about the sequels...

    • @fableSimmer
      @fableSimmer 4 года назад +41

      Hahaha I got a good laugh at that. An excellent point, I never considered that. They are literally banking on the fact that it’s Star Wars rather than there actually being anything new or innovative. And sadly it will most likely sell for that reason. Which is fine. Like if you want the pack, no shade. Cheers. But I would have liked to see some original ideas. Like a space colony pack that features some things from Star Wars rather than outright copying and pasting it into the game. But it is what it is.

    • @Isabellulla
      @Isabellulla 4 года назад +21

      This is what I kept thinking too. Like the things they ask you to do and find... they’re all stuff from the parks.
      Like the control panel is a thing in the parks they if you play the mini game with the Disney app you have to find.
      The people you have to talk to are the hosts of the rides in the park.
      The rebel you have to find in the game is YOU in the parks. They treat you like the secret rebel there.
      Given that the whole story is just the same story from the park, and that this is 1000% just an ad for the parks, I’m very disappointed.
      It’s not even a good ad for the park! Jessie is right this should have been like Medieval. This is NOT new person friendly. This isn’t even SW fan friendly, given this is all based of a theme park. And at that, a theme park with rides that are almost impossible to ride, given the lines and how long they are. It’s kinda elitist. Plus with Corona most people haven’t even been there yet and this doesn’t make them want to go either.
      Absolutely freaking wild.

      I wish they took the energy from Get Together and put it into every pack. An expansion that accommodates every aspect of the game, opens up gameplay opportunities everywhere, a world that is the epitome of what an expansion pack world should look like and potential for lore in a new family with a genuinely interesting backstory (Villareal). Almost everything else is either half-baked or empty.

    EA put out a statement saying they're working on more diverse skin tones, babies, & bunk beds, but it takes time because of "technology matters." That's BS. If players can mod skin tones and CC from their *home computers,* EA can do it BEFORE they release a damn Star Wars pack that belongs nowhere in the rest of the Sims Universe.
    *This pack was a cash grab for EA via Disney and nothing more.* Listening to the money, & not their players.

There's no excuse for skin tones at this point, but cars and babies and bunk beds are completely different.

      @@natncat idk I understand and appreciate your optimism but I high-key disagree. EA as a whole has a terrible reputation for not caring about its fanbase, and i feel that the sims team has become worse over time, not better. It's getting to the point where the amount of excuses Sims fans make for EA grow more and more numerous by the day, while the bar for achievement gets lower and lower. They have had six years to get their act together -- multiple expansions, stuff packs, and game packs later, where are they now? The sims is at its height of popularity and they're still out here clowning. I'm not saying the franchise can't be saved, but I am saying that I am not convinced that the Sims team can or will put in the work to save it (even if they wanted to, EA's bigwigs may not allow them to).
      I say this as a long-time sims fan who has been playing since TS1. I bonded over this game with my mother when she introduced me to it. I've played console versions, spinoffs, and main series. I love this franchise. I desperately wanted to love ts4, but it's not the game for me. I'm happy others enjoy it. But what I'm not happy about is how EA fucks with its customers and how Sims fans are being forced to take it due to the lack of competition/alternatives. Y'all let them get away with too much because you don't have anywhere else to go. That's not right, the fanbase deserves better. With each year they seem to grow further away from their fanbase. It makes me question if they're even trying to listen in the first place, or if they're just trying to tell y'all what you should want and then tuning out the complaints when you all (rightfully) try to tell them what you *actually* want because it's not profitable to them.

      They choose Battu cause they didnt have to create but just replicate, easy and simple and also because its a big advertisement, because no one ( I mean real star wars fans that at least watch the clone wars) wanted that timing in star wars universe, no one like the new age with those loosers characters, created only for yoke purposes and in the end, bad characters. Also, they dared not include a new skill, or force power, and treated lightsabers like toys... this is the most disaponting pack ever, worse than My first pet stuff in my opinion. The only good point like she said, its the visual, beautiful world, star wars vibe yes, beautiful cas assets, im not gonna lie, but why aliens arent real species, why?? Two franchises that EA work on, and they could not provide more to a single gamepack... I will never buy it, and I need to know if I can defenitely delete Rey, Kylo and V. Moradi of the game if ever it comes free at some point, only free, Ill get it just for the sake of having all packs, maybe some built and buy, or cas assets, but only if it gets free and I have the ability to suppress those disgusting characters.

    Can't wait for their next Expansion Pack: Social Distancing Life. Have fun sitting in front of a laptop for hours on Siim meetings, maybe you'll see your boss doing something embarrassing or catch a glimpse of their new kitten (requires Cats and Dogs AND My First Pet Stuff!) Make stylish cloth masks (requires Nifty Knitting) or grab a sign to protest against those bothersome life saving pieces of fabric (requires Get Together.) Watch your sims slowly lose their minds, marriages and livelihoods, will they end up on the streets or just get a divorce? (Requires all DLC.) Your sims lives will be more realistic than ever as they dream of life as it used to be. (That's what you get for requesting realistic features!) Only £999, coming this fall.

That has a gameplay element a lot of people would enjoy. CAS would be fun. BB would have interesting, actually useful items. I don't get why they didn't make it like that

    "It's looks stunning but it's just a set", sounds like this whole franchise to be honest. The worlds always look beautiful but then there's maybe 4 workable lots (Glimmerbrook and Forgotten Hollow want to say hi!!), same with hidden worlds which are only useful if your sim is a collector.
    Honestly I'm genuinely sorry to people who spend money on these packs because they're definitely not worth it. I used to buy the games and I genuinely wanted to support the franchise because it was a big part of my childhood but ts4 is just disappointment after disappointment. You could praise them for some updates and build mode but even then, it doesn't fix the game by a long stretch. The lack of depth makes it something you can play for a day or two and then not touch it for months because there's little to no replay value, especially in packs like this one, Strangerville or Eco Living. It's frustrating, honestly. And the way they are completely okay to ignore these issues and just send more half-assed packs our way just shows that they don't care at all, which on one hand I get it, it's first and foremost a business but then again, the clear lack of respect towards their fans/clients is kinda jarring. They expect us to pay for all these packs and don't even have the decency to produce something of quality.
    edit: also thank you for being so honest about what you think of these packs. I really appreciate it.

    And this is the TREND with Sims 4. They have mastered aesthetics. Aesthetics and CAS and all that shit are PERFECT. Best we've ever had.
    But the gameplay is so fucking empty. It is literally an empty, soulless, happy millennial simulator with no substance. The worlds are set pieces and shells (Del Sol Valley is basically unplayable IMHO).
    And that is how I, (a devoted Sims player since 2000 but someone who could never get into TS3 because I have automatonophobia and the Sims in that game literally made me feel ill because they look so uncanny valley) and now downloading a complete collection of the Sims 3 series.

    The other day I saw someone ranting on Twitter about "hate" this pack was getting and telling people to "get over it", saying the creators are not bound to always make packs the community wants, but also what they want to do because they develop the game. I was so baflled by how people just assume that the game developers are doing us a favor instead of their jobs. Yes, they should like what they develop, but no, not at the expense of what people want - the people who buy their product. The Sims is a product, not a gift. There's no reason to personally hate on creators, but the company who develops a product ignoring what their targeted audience wants will face consequences, losing credibility and ultimately, clients. It's just surprising how people forget this.

      Very well put. If the creators don’t want to make the packs the community wants, they need to be prepared for the community to not purchase what they make instead. I think what this person on Twitter is missing is that the sims community is pretty angry and tired and fed up with half-assed packs they didn’t ask for. This isn’t the first time we’ve gotten a pack we didn’t exactly want and, simply put, competition is coming for the sims. If they aren’t willing to make what the community wants, it’s not going to be long before there’s other games that are.

      Maybe this criticism would be valid, for an indie development or a one man team, but we’re talking about corporation as big as EA. You can and should criticize their product. I agree that people shouldn’t attack the game devs, when the decisions are ultimately made by the higher ups, but please don’t act like EA is your friend. I wish some Simmers, were as critical as other gamers. The things we allow to happen and defend is absolutely abhorrent. I would never let some of the crap, EA pulls slide. Even in other games, EA puts out, they don’t try to blatantly take advantage of their users. If loot boxes were still legal, I wouldn’t be surprised if EA could work that into the Sims somehow.

But EA being the evil overlord corporate slavedriver it is enforces this shit. Hate EA, pity the Sims team.

They are basically a monopoly and quite frankly pretty lackluster in almost everything that they have put out since 2013 (at least, without Pixar, since Pixar is the superior animation studio.) teaming up with the sims which already disappoints with lackluster packs is honestly just the icing on the cake.

      I'd have been slightly annoyed by it containing branding from a real world thing (the rest of the game does not other than the few star wars things they had in base game just because EA have franchise rights). But at the same time, if they'd made a Disneyland pack where it has all the rides done and HOTELS to go and stay in - basically just Disneyland in game form, then I'd take all my sims on holidays there and ride all the rides. Like I'm not even fussed if you couldn't build the rides (I have Roller Coaster Tycoon 1 & 2, Parkitect, and Planet Coaster for that). I'd take getting to be a mascot as a new job. They could go off to work, be dressed up as a mascot and then you could take the rest of the family to go visit the park and you'd see your sim there. Don't even care if it would technically count as a rabbit hole job (as in you can't control them as a mascot).

      Yeah, a user in one of the comments up above even said the reputation/quest gameplay is a copy-paste job of the early Galaxy's Edge concepts: the attraction was gonna have you go on quests for the Rebels/First Order/Scoundrels and develop a reputation. It's hilarious.

    As a Star Wars fan I knew that this was how it’s going to be and it makes me so sad!

It makes Star Wars fans disappointed, sims fans hate it, and if you had no interest in SW you definitely don’t want to try it out now.
    I will say if anyone wants to try to get into Star Wars don’t play this game, instead watch A New Hope and skip ahead while C3PO is walking through the desert. That’s the slowest part of the movie but after that it’s great

I get that they need to cater to the fans that can't afford the hardware to run a HD open world Sims game, but if they somehow made that optional, for the people who do have the hardware power to run it, then that will be amazing. I hate that you have to load an area just to visit a neighbour or to go to a community lot that's literally in the same town. And with an open world option they can actually add cars again. It will make no sense adding cars to the Sims 4 as is, because you can only load one lot at a time. You can't drive to another lot, unless you want to see your sim get into a car, have a 2 second driving animation, a loading screen, and then an animation of your sim getting out of the car. That's pointless and unsatisfying.

      The developers don’t deserve any of it. The actual producers and leaders? Yeah okay but I recommend looking into the history of EA and why exactly gamers get VERY upset when lovely companies are bought up by them. I’d hazard a guess that the amount of resources and time developers (employees, lets get honest here) are given is unrealistic and it’s why 4 has so many issues. I feel so bad for them for copping so much flack when really it’s just being rushed with limited resources on hand and I don’t think Jessie gets that part of it when she specifically only addresses the developers - as much as she gets tours or talks with them it’s not going to be actually real insider stuff - just a form of marketing.
      It’s like when you get hourly complaints about one specific issue you can’t do anything about in retail or hospitality - it feels the same here tbh. Maybe that’s why I get so fired up about this particular issue - I totally get what it’s like on the receiving end.

      It's something that frustrates me a lot with create-a-sim. I am pretty confident I could create banger outfits with just the items in the game. But since it's not possible, I always rely on cc for at least a bare minimum. Skin tones, hair and shoes can take a sim from drab to fab. (Especially skin tones. Check out Remussirion on The Sims resource, he is honestly super talented. I swear you won't regret it)

    Definitely seems that this pack is relying on people to already know about Star Wars, so when you say there's no lore - they expect you to fill in the blanks, to have seen the films and taking advantage of any Disney/SW fans out there!
    It's also terrible for Occult players who always get such a hard time for wanting packs like this and it's ruining any future occult gameplay we've been wanting! I wanted Werewolves or a medieval fantasy w/Elves like LoTR (we've never had that before!)

You were supposed to be able to wander around, develop a reputation based on choices you make, and characters who interact with you would do so dependent on your reputation. This pack was not the idea, conception, or creation of the sims team. In fact, the specific things about the land you CAN’T do, is Disney protecting their IPs. If the sims team *really* had any creative control why wouldn’t they add on to the already existing alien system.

But they seem to have no idea who the bulk of their audience is, have used a product development tactic that is doomed to fail and is ethically questionable, along with poorly communicated pr and marketing comms; which is all incredibly disappointing for a franchise that used to have marketing & prod development that i admired. tbf it makes for a very interesting case study lol. anyway love the content babe, big respect for the honesty, ur vids light up my lockdown days xxx

    Wow. This pack makes My First Pet Stuff look positively *scintillating*. They're really trying to get simmers to buy an advertisement with the depth of a maze printed on the back of a cereal box...

      People often hate on My First Pet Stuff, but it was one of the bestselling stuff packs for a long time. It SHOULD have been a part of the Cats and Dogs expansion pack, but at least it’s cute and a really good marketing move on their part. We’ll see how well this goes for them, however I feel like this won’t be it. It isn’t what most sims players are looking for, this barely feels like a pack. It’s just an expensive ad.

      Hey at least the maze on the box is fun, can't say the same for the sims 4...

      i'd rather replay the same cereal box maze for months than pay $20 for this piece of shit 🥰

      at least my first pet stuff actually had a few good items, I use some of the stuff for children's bedrooms and especially the cat trees a lot... i can't see myself using any of this pack's stuff apart from the hair but I'll wait until a cc creator releases those instead of buying this pack

      This is worse. It might even be the worst pack in the entire franchise's 20-year history. Bottom of the barrel low. The overall game itself is already subpar, and now this.

      my first pet stuff isn't even that bad. i love the blinds, the hamsters are also very cute and some of the items are good.

    I'm a huge Star Wars fan so I was pretty excited when I first heard word of there being a Sims 4 Star Wars gamepack. I was thinking force using and lightsaber skill lines, Jedi, Sith, and Bounty Hunter career tracks, new star wars themed world to live, work & play (perhaps with 3 or 4 different "neighbourhoods" of a city/Coruscant, jungle/forest, and desert style that have actual home lots and commercial lots). There is honestly so many things the EA team could have done with this theme and it feels like they didn't even try to make something you could play for longer than 10 minutes.
