    • Yuup. I put a cake in my mum sim's inventory for the kid's birthday party. In the time it took us to get to the pool, she'd eaten a slice. I've given up on getting my sims to bake cakes now. I found a room in the gallery that is a single cake on a small dining table. I just get to the party location and place that.

  • I feel like Luxury Party was made so you can dress up for a ~gala~ or something, with some small items to make the default parties/events in basegame feel nice enough to actually use those CAS items, whereas Party Essentials is more of "wanna have a cool birthday party kids? here's a discoball and some fun pretty things"

    • I honestly very rarely build homes with kids rooms. Kids and the Sims are lowkey my last priority 😂 they take up too much time, school/homework/projects are annoying. I appreciate the Sims being family-oriented but there's SO MUCH more to do in life than go to school, have a career, etc. And tbh if the careers were somehow more interesting and less rabbit holey and more relevant to the community outside of your Sim , it'd be better. But ultimately, there's not really much to do in general without a ton of imagination.

  • The answer is yes. It's a rip off. Whether it's like luxury party stuff or not, the pack is a rip off. Almost all the kits are rip offs. The game needs to be fixed instead of EA focusing on money grabbing by continuously releasing kits, packs, and more broken expansions, and all the EA creator network people just tip toeing around the major game play issues. Stop releasing content and fix the game. Everything is a rip off when TONS of game play features DONT WORK. Weddings, gardening, restaurant issues, and building glitches (terrain paint and stair rail glitches) just to name a few...

  • I actually REALLY like the luxury party CAS for formal looks and use it all the time. I bought it when it first came out because we just didn’t have a lot of CAS at that time, and haven’t regretted it even if it is a little lacking compared to later packs and the boom cube is completely useless. I also use the buffet all the time and we only recently got more of those. I also use the chair a lot for weddings because I REFUSE to buy the wedding pack with its wedding gameplay STILL being that broken. I actually like the CAS, Build/Buy, and world of My Wedding Stories, but the fact that it BREAKS wedding gameplay makes it unusable for me, so the formal CAS and build/buy pieces have been wedding staples for me for the last decade. I have yet to break down and purchase a $5 kit and the Party Essentials hasn’t tempted me to change my stance. I like some of the stuff, but it doesn’t in any way feel “essential”. Also for me “luxury party” really goes more wedding/celebrity nightclub and “party essentials” goes more birthday/prom. Like the difference between formal and party wear in CAS.

  • You can stack glow cubes and make a wall out of them, or use them to make a fort for the little toddlers, for you need to surround the tent that came with the DHD pack or surround the ball pit (to disguise it) and pretend the little ones have a bouncy house.

  • Luxury Party does let you have candy apples via the fountain (and other things I think depending on the sauce), and it can be pranked too. It's not a lot of unique gameplay, but it's more than Perfect Patio. On the ear bug bite front, one time I was up further north in blackfly country and I had them stinging me all over, including inside the ears. Didn't know ears could swell up like that and then ooze, but turns out they can and it's awful. Ear bites are terrible.

My birthday is next week and - as a musician - I tend to buy anything to do with lighting, special effects, music, etc. I probably have more dance clubs and pseudo-concert venues in my save than households.

  • idk luxury party was released in 2015, releasing a new party pack in 2024 with different items makes sense to me, and obviously they would be better even if it's just a kit because that's the natural progression of extra content getting ever better also the glow cube is an icon. very niche yes, but it's very pretty and works very well for its purpose of being a glowing cube

  • Tbh the only pack that’s ever felt like it had stuff in it meant for another pack was…. My first pets stuff. Which honestly doesn’t actually bother me in the slightest. In fact it makes me pretty upset that there was so much negativity around it bc it definitely feels like the dev team hasn’t done anything like it again bc of that. And dang it I want more stuff for my pets!!! Anyway, it’s ALWAYS GOOD to have more packs that can go with other packs. It’s GOOD to have things you can mix and match with. I DO NOT get why everyone talks abt it like it’s a bad thing. Like NO, ignore the nay sayers and give me MORE matching stuff along with the new stuff thanks!

  • I know both packs are different, but I still think some of the items in the kit could've just been added to the luxury party pack in the form of a refresh without straying too far from the whole luxury theme. Stuff like the balloons, streamers, confetti, speakers, disco ball, foglights, and maybe even the record player and bar could've been added. Perhaps the rest of the stuff could've been released in a free update to celebrate the pack's refresh.

  • The thing about the dance floor though, if you only have base game and this kit, the dance floor isn't functional ! You need one of the packs with a dance floor (High school years, Get together, Ranch pack or wedding pack) for it to function... so that's a bit dodgy

  • I bought luxury party many years ago for the cas, so as not a builder, as I believe many ppl are, I would say it makes more sense to get that one over new kit. Usually I buy all the kits, but lately not playing sims at all, even gamepack didn’t bring me back to sims, so waiting on that party kit, maybe skipping completely.

  • When I first got the game back in 2019 I had gotten two 10 dollar Playstation cards as well. I hadn't really watched anyone talk about the packs just watched gameplay. So when I got around to buying a couple packs with my gift cards I chose Laundry Day and Luxury Party. I could tell the Luxury Party stuff was bad, but I wanted the spiky hair style for one of my sims.

  • I don't think that the beginning of the Sims 4 stuff packs are lacking. The thing with stuff packs is they're just supposed to be STUFF. Take the Stuff packs from Sims 3; they come with Create-a-Sim and Build/Buy Mode objects. That's what stuff packs are supposed to be. They don't need new skills, lot types, etc. I feel like the reason why there's such a weird grey area with game packs, stuff packs, and expansion packs with Sims 4 is because there's no Sims 4 Store like we had a Sims 3 store. There you could buy specific items and sets using real money, which is understandably controversial but nice. So EA is pumping out these weird game packs and expanding/changing what it means to be a stuff/game/expansion pack because there's no Sims 4 store. Hopefully this makes sense.

Or any sort of party clutter that's fitting. Or at least that's what it seems to be for if you google it. Granted it might have been more useful as a chair but who knows. You should really make a build now where you can mix and match both packs and you MUST use the glow cube. KInda like a challenge.
