  • I feel like this build/buy overview is an example of the handholding the sims team has been doing with build mode. They make these great storylines and paths to go down in the game, and include items in build mode that fit those stories, which is fine. But it feels sort of like they just put items in build mode that could very well have been in the debug menu. Like if you're going to create that beautiful new bar and the backing that goes with it, why not make those items available separately as well? And the laboratory decorations are nice, but how often are you building a laboratory? It's almost like they're telling stories FOR us in this sandbox game, where we're supposed to tell our own stories.

  • This all looks fantastic! Based on your other interviews with Sim Gurus, I think the reason they do clustered items (like the 3 barrels and 3 potted plants) is because they aren't allowed to build with MoveObjects on, so they would just have really clunky looking groups without the cheat.

  • I do love the idea, some of the furnishings, and the CAS is pretty cool, but I wish the pack was more similar to Jungle Adventure, where there's a load of items that I find myself using in all sorts of builds.. In terms of items, 50% are stylised to the point you can't use them anywhere and are purely decorative (i.e. your sim can only 'view' them). I loved the doors (despite the best ones being mid wall height only) and the bookcase, but that's.. it? Nothing else is versatile enough to use in every-day building and so there's no way near enough content I'd use for me to get it, so I'll keep an eye out for a sale.

    • I agree with you 100%! I myself am mostly a builder, I don't really do gameplay all that much. Most of the items are obviously put in the game to "set the scene" and make this world come alive - which is absolutely legitimate, of course. But since this is a story-based game pack, even if you really enjoy gameplay, you will probably play though it once or twice and that's gonna be it. It's not like you're going to build or play in super grungy bunkers or run down labs all the time. So most of the new stuff will have little to no use once you've seen everything there is to see in Strangerville - which is a shame considering the incredible amount of effort they put into all those little details! So, on the one hand I'm loving all of the new stuff for what it is, but on the other hand I had hoped for more items that are actually gonna be usable in regular builds... Well, I guess you can't have everything. I'm definetly going to wait for the pack to be on sale before I purchase it. In the meantime I'll try to stay spoiler-free when it comes to the story in order to experience it myself. Otherwise I'm afraid it'll feel like a waste of money for me.

  • I really like this pack, however I feel it could have been an expansion pack. This isn't strangetown, but it feels and aesthetically looks like a modern version of it. Only with recent popular culture references (stranger things). Strangerville could have reintroduced some of the beloved classic but reinvented habitats of strangetown. Not to mention have a bit of mysteries surrounding a certain Sim to solve or have Sims feel wary about some particular Sims. And remember that dry erase board loaded with ideas by the gurus during the laundry day pack? Would have loved to see living off the grid here. As well as an aspiration for aliens. And regardless of us not having cars, it would be nice if we could create a shady gas station or cemetery. All in all, this pack does seem fun. So I'll buy it.

  • It bothers me that they added laptops in such a specific purpose pack. The community has wanted laptops since day one and correct me if I'm wrong but I believe laptops were in The Sims 3 base game. They're just such a basic part of everyday life that I really think they should have come either in a free update or in a pack with wider versatility. This pack doesnt suit my usual playstyle at all and even though I really want laptops, I'm not going to pay $20 just to be able to use them.

    • Hobos, hillbillies, and a post-apocalyptic theme, and I'd be on board with that, especially as another fan of the filthy/grungy aesthetic: Toss in a selection of hobo, cannibal hillbilly, zombie-apocalypse, and Mad-Max style clothing and haircuts, a lot of make-shift furniture, the wall and floor textures and architectural features for building factories and prisons and warehouses and run-down shops and abandoned shopping malls and whatever (it surely wouldn't take much for that sort of run-down industrial/institutional thing), and you're pretty much set, except for the how-cool-would-that-be customizable cars (because Sims 4 seems to have a "thing" against cars....) Add in just a bit of "My War" style make-shift survivalism in the interactive objects: grow your own garden of food and medicine in things like that bathtub full of plants from the video, for example. Toss in a bit of the Slab City aesthetic of extreme decay decorated by mad artists. "Scavenger" as a profession: rather than bringing home an income, the Sim brings home things like random food and furniture. Make it just a bit tougher to sell stuff off or dispose of it, so that Sims are more likely to leave what they don't need sitting around in the yard, or hoarded up in attics and basements. Maybe adjustments for Sim personalities that don't really care for getting all the finer things in Sim life, and are just fine with being covered with dirt, living with rats and bugs, and eating out of garbage cans (most of the world's population since the dawn of pre-history has been like that). Also, Sims that can bicker and fight and hold grudges, but still live together without every interaction descending into hysterical fist-fighting on-sight when they're together, and a lot of hysterical raging and crying when they aren't. (It would be too much to hope for for a very much more interesting version of Sim psychology, but real people seem to find ways to live with each other in spite of their differences, and they seem to find ways to live with hardship, compared to the rather shallow Sims....) Optional gameplay extensions for conflicts between your "family" of apocalypse survivors and roving bands of apocalypse gangs (and how difficult would it be to ramp that up from existing gameplay mechanics, such as the one for clubs/groups?) I mean, that stuff is where my Simming interests are at... That dysfunctional group of angry people stuck together in the boarded-up farmhouse in "Night of the Living Dead" was the sort of Sims family I've always wanted to follow around, or the weird family of mutants from "The Hills Have Eyes". The Sims 4 was depressingly sterile, urban, and restrained for my tastes.

"Scavenger" as a profession: rather than bringing home an income, the Sim brings home things like random food and furniture. Make it just a bit tougher to sell stuff off or dispose of it, so that Sims are more likely to leave what they don't need sitting around in the yard, or hoarded up in attics and basements. Maybe adjustments for Sim personalities that don't really care for getting all the finer things in Sim life, and are just fine with being covered with dirt, living with rats and bugs, and eating out of garbage cans (most of the world's population since the dawn of pre-history has been like that). Also, Sims that can bicker and fight and hold grudges, but still live together without every interaction descending into hysterical fist-fighting on-sight when they're together, and a lot of hysterical raging and crying when they aren't. (It would be too much to hope for for a very much more interesting version of Sim psychology, but real people seem to find ways to live with each other in spite of their differences, and they seem to find ways to live with hardship, compared to the rather shallow Sims....) Optional gameplay extensions for conflicts between your "family" of apocalypse survivors and roving bands of apocalypse gangs (and how difficult would it be to ramp that up from existing gameplay mechanics, such as the one for clubs/groups?) I mean, that stuff is where my Simming interests are at... That dysfunctional group of angry people stuck together in the boarded-up farmhouse in "Night of the Living Dead" was the sort of Sims family I've always wanted to follow around, or the weird family of mutants from "The Hills Have Eyes". The Sims 4 was depressingly sterile, urban, and restrained for my tastes.

    • Hobos, hillbillies, and a post-apocalyptic theme, and I'd be on board with that, especially as another fan of the filthy/grungy aesthetic: Toss in a selection of hobo, cannibal hillbilly, zombie-apocalypse, and Mad-Max style clothing and haircuts, a lot of make-shift furniture, the wall and floor textures and architectural features for building factories and prisons and warehouses and run-down shops and abandoned shopping malls and whatever (it surely wouldn't take much for that sort of run-down industrial/institutional thing), and you're pretty much set, except for the how-cool-would-that-be customizable cars (because Sims 4 seems to have a "thing" against cars....)
