    Things I'd like to see in a Romance pack:
    - A few more interactions
    - SLOW DANCING
    - An attraction system no matter how basic (this would be a great base game update pre-pack)
    - Bachelor/Bachelorette parties
    - Actual Honey Moons
    - Multiple sims can make a toast (I believe only 2 sims can make a toast right now)
    I wanna keep the wishlist small since it IS a game pack, but I'm sure others can think of a lot of other awesome features that would make me go "aww I want that too!"

      In addition, bringing back the restaurant proposal would be fire. As well as having family and best friends react to proposals and/or having a real announce engagement option. (I have this on my PC with mods, but not console. Most of my favorite sims are on my console game because I got it first, which sucks.)
      And something still needs to be done about introducing bf/gf to your sims parents. I mean, come on. It's overdue and happens in real life all the time. (Not to me, but other people, lol. #loser)

    When it comes to the existing romance interactions I feel like many of them (particularly kisses) are either really over the top or rather bland. Like you get either a big dip kiss or kind of a meh peck. Anyway, I’d like so see some more variety in the romance animations somewhere in that middle range.

    I love the idea of more romantic interactions, but there are still core issues that will result in any game pack receive mixed reviews like all prior ones, like Sims freezing in their action queues, doing stupid things like randomly doing push-ups, or being unable to go on dates because townies will constantly butt in on conversations.

    "A gift of community collaborations" probably means we're getting a few CC items in a free update, like last year. That went down very well with the community (and probably saved Maxis a bunch of time and money), so I won't be surprised if the repeat it in some form.

    Besides an attraction system. I'd love arranged marriages where sims have to impress their in-laws. Prenups were other sims can take the house, pets, business.
    More impact for cheating or divorce. More romantic interactions (obviously slow dancing). A dating app where sims can be catfished. A wedding planner career. Bride/groomzilla trait. More impact for calling of the wedding. The option for other sims to stop/crash a wedding.
    More dating options for teens. First crush for kids. More relationship options. So much potential.

    I'd love to see bachelor/bachelorette parties as well as bridal parties! I remember enjoying them in The Sims 3. I'd also like to see something for teenagers. There isn't a lot of variation between dating as a teenager and dating as a young adult. It would be neat to see some "teen only" romance ideas. Or maybe the concept of "childhood crushes" for children... though it may just work better in the teen cycle. I'd like to see more wedding CAS and build/buy, but I feel like that would be included in a kit, which doesn't excite me at all lol

  • @blkalycat
    @blkalycat 3 года назад +4

    Game building mechanics tend to come to us through GPs and EPs, so I could see the love-themed GP bringing an attraction system to the base game, with some pack-specific features.
    As great as it is that more cultural food is being brought in, the pie menu is sooo full of things and only a handful of foods impact your Sim beyond filling their hunger meter. It’d be great if they bundled/sorted them culturally and had various foods act like the foods in City Living in giving your Sim different moodlets or buffs, also like the fruitcake or turkey!

  • @MishieWishie

    I hope this gamepack has an attraction system, and brings some of the TS2 Nightlife themes (like getting ready & wearing perfume/cologne, gifts, cars, contacts, & turn ons/offs etc. would be cool if werewolves came with it but I'm not picky - so long as they make it to the game at some point I'll be cool) and isn't just primarily about 'event challenges' (since we already HAVE those, and they can, and should be expanded upon with BG updates for those of us that DON'T have $20 to spend to increase the playability of a $64 game)... I'm seeing mardi gras themes in the background and this makes me suspect March is going to be a closer estimate for the release. Fierce design makes me nervous although some kits I was actually kind of pleased with, so I'm open to it.

    I like the idea for this game pack.

It would also be lovely if they gave us a new "world" in a non-USA/European setting where you could have parties, go shopping and vacation/honeymoon. It's so much fun to let the imagination go wild but it will be interesting to see what they actually put in it.

I really don't mind the kits and I'm excited to see what they have in store for those but I know the community will probably not be too happy about that, which I get. But if they give us an attraction system and better weddings / more events, I think this could be a step in the right direction to kick off 2022!!

    I know most people are probably thinking it will be a wedding-themed pack...but since you can already throw weddings in-game maybe it will be prom or school dance-related since that could also bring about slow-dancing and more story-telling options for teens which are all things many in the community have been asking for!
    Edit: After taking a closer look at the roadmap they posted (seeing a wedding cake and rings in the confetti) it could actually be more likely that it would be bachelor/bachelorette party-themed instead of school dance-themed, which would also be really cool!

    I'm interested to see what the pack will be, hopefully more than just wedding planning as people are predicting. Other love parties could be prom/dances? Bachelor/Bachorlette parties? Anniversary parties? And hopefully an attraction system will be added to base game. Not excited for kits. I'm trying to guess what they will be based on the fact that most of them are things I'm not interested in, but the word "fierce" makes me think jungle themed and lots of animal print. Probably not. What's popular style for home design on tiktok? That's probably where to find the clues.

      You can already set gender preferences, it's in the same menu as the other gender specificities in CAS.
      By default all sims are cisgender pansexual but you can set them to be attracted to male, females or both (mabe neither too, I can't recall). In the same menu you can determine wether they pee sitting or standing and wether they can get pregnant, make others pregnant or neither, independtly of wether their body looks male or female.

    I'm hoping that the attraction system is similiar to or even better than Wicked/Wonderful Whims. The mod itself already has a great attraction system, the only problem is with tagging items with the correct tags. Sometimes they don't notice it at all or sometimes it is tagged incorrectly. Had a sim with am extremely obvious beard but the game thought it was a goatee 😭. Bringing the attraction system to the base game would mean re tagging every single item and making it a requirements, which, now that I think about it, feels like it would be game breaking...

    * I want to choose roles like wedding party or maybe even have an officiant.
    * I NEED more wedding outfits, dresses for all ages, suits/tuxes as well.
    *I want an actual wedding venue lot type that you can select. And for the wedding to cost more/less depending on where you have it.
    *I want better engagements, ring shopping, more ring options
    *I want to be able to plan a honeymoon rather than just a vacation.
    *I want online dating, blind dates, hookup calls, basically the Simda mod in the actual game
    I request a lot joy but hopefully at least we see some of this, if we got all of this I would absolutely die.

    When it comes with your comment about game versus expansion packs, I guess you are right because expansion packs usually have higher discounts on Origin.
    Although I am not excited about a romance game pack, I celebrate EA is listening to their customers and hope the incoming features will be worth the cost.
    Personally, I don't imagine which content about romantic stuff will be worth 20 dollars/euros minus if it is going to include a new world and the free kisses day to all the Sims in the park like in Sims 3. I speculate about a French (Paris?) or Italian (Venice, La Toscana?) inspired worlds.

In order for a wedding themed game pack to be worth it for me, they would need wedding clothes and buy objects from multiple cultures, bachelor/bachelorette parties, honeymoons, slow dancing, classical waltz, and online dating/dating app.

      I also hope that the Lunar New Year/Year of the Tiger is a free update rather than a kit, because it has been a free update in the past. Mardi Gras could be a kit or a free update, but I hope it is the later. I’m not sure what to expect from the kits. They could both be CAS or both be Build/Buy or one of each. I doubt they will be gameplay kits.

    Hmmm I'm gonna go wicked here and say love hotel!!! lol I really want hotels at some point in this game sigh but "throws a party for love" it really throws me off, not too sure what it could be. But yup attraction systems and more type love relationships would be appreciated.

      Yeah I don't personally feel it will have hotels, more pre wedding activities and hopefully updates to the weddings themselves?
