    For Island Living, I feel like I'm the only one who doesn't want hotels. It wasn't a pack about vacationing, and it's weird to say well if you're going to do Polynesian/Hawaiian themed worlds it needs to have hotels/resorts. However, I wish there had been a Hidden World in it for the mermaids.

      With the added context that a lot of Pacific Island resorts are built through the exploitation of the locals and much of the money goes offshore not back to the community, Island Living being suggested as the pack to introduce them feels a bit gross.
      Also with the way the game play is designed, Island Living feels like you're meant to play it from the point of view of a local, not a tourist

    so, i love playing in mt. komorebi because i'm japanese american. however, what bugs me is that almost all of the gameplay is oriented toward tourism. like, my soul left my body the first time one of my sims automatically went to take a selfie with the graves and i couldn't quit out of it!! i don't think you should be able to collect the forest spirits like dolls. it kinda breaks the immersion when my asian sims born and raised in mt. komorebi struggle to use chopsticks to the point of affecting their mood. i also don't use jungle escape for similar reasons. at least i can actually live in mt. komorebi and there are japanese npc's with storylines (but why are all the npc's the palest shades in the palette?).

    Like you could have had regular bugs in all neighborhoods but rare ones only in granite fools so people would still need to travel for rarer ingredients. But having to take a vacation day every time I wanna cook up some bug salve is really not the vibe.

    Imagine if they had brought cut scenes back for My Wedding Stories!! Honestly, the most frustrating thing about that pack is that everything, literally everything has to be down manually. I feel like they could have used the "ask to be___" interaction to assign where that sim showed up in the cut scene. I don't know anything about game development, but based off the sims 2 having cut scenes and us having better tech now i feel like it could have been done, and that would have really justified the pack, made it more impactful and saved a lot of headache for the player.

She tried to move them all out there but it didn't really work. Eventually she found a good work/life balance but it's so so cool.
      I literally go to work with her every day while her family does their own thing. My restaurant is 5 stars and I'm constantly praising my employees and greeting the guests and giving inspiring speeches. Changed my entire gameplay style and got me to buy go to work.

    What you said about Island Living is how I feel about Sims. It feels great at first but it is just surface level. I have most packs but I think only University, Tiny Living and Cottage Living were actually good. There are other packs I like but I don't use them that much and I don't think they were worth the money. That is why I would put most packs in the middle tier

I bought it just recently for the career mainly, thinking the additional camera controls would be a nice bonus, but I have fallen in love with this long baggy tshirt it came with. I am short. Every shirt I wear is long. It’s so nice to finally have an option that’s casual and not a crop top. Way too many of my Sims are now wearing this as pajamas.

There is a lot of things could be tweaked and improved.

    I'm middle of the road on the supernatural packs and I LOVE Vampires.. I think it was VERY well done too! My only gripe about it is that it's super annoying to try to have a vampire that doesn't feed on other sims because you have to have them eat SO many times to get full (or even no longer dying of hunger). It's just not fun to have to queue up "Drink Plasma Pack" 20x or the other options that don't include feeding on a sim.

    I get why City Living and Get Famous are where they are, because usually when I play with the one I play with the other. They really should've come together, because Get Famous in a City would honestly trump all other packs. BUT I LOVE THOSE PACKS.
    I love living in San Myshuno; it's my no.1 world to live in. And I love the townies, and the cas, and the build/buy and basically everything that came with the pack, even the stupid, annoying neighbors. The biggest detriment is that, yes, it's like 99% tied to the world, and unfortunately, that is why we haven't had another city world. And I desperately want another city world.
    Also, Get Famous. The world is awful. It's tiny but somehow the lots are also too big. I can't even visit the beach. I can either live in an ugly neighborhood or all the way up in the massive lots of the big hills. I hate it. But I love the fame system, which is PERFECT, btw, with its stupid quirks and the multiple ways to get famous that integrates well into other packs, and the acting career is hands down my favorite career in the entire game.
    If City Living + Get Famous came together in a single pack, with all the same content except no Del Sol Valley, it would really just be the most perfect, completely worth it pack.

    Just barely started the video and already gotta say, the ranking system is the funniest I've seen yet. XD I'd say "Seasons" is in the top tier for me, only because I'm not NOT going to have a life sim game where the atmosphere NEVER changes. It's one of the main things I wanted back in Sims 1, to make it "feel complete" (the other was "aging and genetics").
    Also, reason to celebrate outside your house? I recently made up a holiday where one of the traditions was "streaking", and I swear, EVERYBODY WAS JUST GOING ABOUT THEIR REGULAR DAY, BUT NAKED. I thought they'd, y'know, _streak_ , as in run by really fast naked. Nope, they were chatting to each other, checking their phones, walking across the street, doing random sit-ups on the sidewalk...all the regular Sims 4 stuff but nude, and everybody was acting like this was totally normal. I just DIED laughing.
    So yeah, that's one way to make a holiday interesting outside of just your Sim's lot! XD
