I was very skeptical of this pack since the speculations of it began. This stream and the summary really confirmed that this is not for me. It really should've been a romance pack instead of just weddings. Online dating, honeymoons, weddings planers/matchmakers to name a few features. Also this pack would've have been perfect for a town's fair with a ferris wheel, kissing booth, rigged carnival games, tunnel of love, etc. What we seem to get instead is another example of events that look pretty for screenshots but have very little gameplay.

I know that this is just a game pack but weddings are something more than just parties and planning, this pack is as cheaply made as possible and will be bugged 100%, they should've give us just another 10000 kits and then release a full wedding or generations-like dlc

And they said your sim could take a walk, even though there is not an option for sims to take a walk only go jogging. You did miss my favorite part, wherein they had to MANUALLY tell everyone to do their part of the wedding. My question is (and I think I don't really want the answer) what if the entire wedding party is not part of my household, how do I get them to do their part? To play their role. This really is for people who do stories. They gave a good backdrop for it and created roles for sims to play. The only good things I can see is that there IS a world we can move sims into and slow dancing.

@etodraws2 жыл бұрын
@@ayanaivory5472 Oh sure thing! I'd like to point out that my strategy is more oriented towards effectively doing things for a goaled wedding event, but it should be helpful either way. 1. I started out with building a wedding venue, usually go for the Park lot type and place everything required for a park in an inaccessible basement. I go for smaller building, so Sims don't stray too far. I have loads of decorations, little gardens and stuff outside, but never anything that can be interacted with, like a chess table or a bench. I make the ceremony area with a wedding arch and seating. The second area is where the reception happens. Got my stereo, dance floor, bar, tables for guests to hopefully sit and eat at and tables for food and the wedding cake. It'll be good to have at least 2 toilets, more is better. Absolutely no kitchen. Not even a hint. 2. My advice is not to hire a caterer or an entertainer, but ESPECIALLY the caterer. I have never had caterers work properly in any setting. Make all your food beforehand (including the wedding cake) or use the buffet table from luxury party stuff if you have that stuff pack. Making two meals yourself I think is cheaper, if money's an issue. 3. I do all my weddings in a community venue. My Sims and guests load there together, in close proximity with each other. Guests take a while to arrive and some never arrive on time if the wedding/party is held at home. Once we're loaded in, I make a group. Either one big group, or I divide guests somewhat equally between the spouses to be. When I'm going for the goals half of them can do having bar drinks and half of them can eat. 4. I always put food/cake out after the ceremony, so Sims have less incentive to wonder around aimlessly. 5. Before the ceremony, I tell the group to either go closer to the wedding arch together or tell them to "Sit together". Once a good chunk of guests are either sitting down or closer to the arch, I immediately start the ceremony. I feel like the arch has an area of effect and if Sims are too far away, they don't get the memo that the ceremony started, but this is just my assumption. This gives you a good chance for most of the guests to sit down and watch. It will never be all of them, but it will be most of them, if it's a lucky day 😂 After the ceremony it's all about "Call to meal" for them to eat and then "Dance together" for some fun. I'm less controlling during the reception. Since the venue is really a park, you always get random sims joining in, but the new base game wedding lot type should help with that. I am sorry for this huge essay 😂 It still takes a lot of micro-management, but it's definitely less infuriating once you do it a couple of times. I hope it helps a little! ❤️

That livestream was as dry as unseasoned turkey and them not showing diff gameplay or making it look exciting is sad though, they REALLY should get content creators (AND PAY THEM OFC) to play these for these special streams so that way we can be entertained and also get a look at everything because devs aren't going to want to show it all in one go.

I have a feeling you'll be adding "making wedding stories suck less" to your to do list. I'm buying it for the world. I'll probably do a wedding once just to try it out and then elope immediately for the rest of time because that's what my sims usually do.

I still don’t know why they went with wedding stories as the title when there doesn’t seem to be any story telling elements to this pack, especially when they’re attempting to try and add more “story mode” esq. features to the game. For example, they could’ve incorporated the base game system so that when a sim calls to ask you if they should get engaged, they would also invite you to the wedding. Though the event would be completely autonomous, it would be a good step in the right direction so that it feels like a story is being told. I think they should hire someone to do the live streams for them, because while the sim gurus designed the game, being able to present it is a whole different skill. I think they did their best, but they didn’t really showcase the potential of the pack and what it had to offer in the best way. As someone who does a lot of virtual presentations it’s not easy to engage and inform a virtual audience while also marketing a product. I’m still very excited to play this pack, but there’s also room for needed improvements,
@nedrane2972 жыл бұрын
Couple things. They don't want a story to be told, they want YOU to micromange to tell a story yourself. Which is really what their point of ts4 is, why they used to always say "I can't wait for the stories that people will tell with this." Second, if you've watched previous livestreams, they WERE enthusiastic and excited, just about the wrong things and everyone was upset. They were always talking about how cool things looked and instead of what the sims could actually DO. This time they said "It's so pretty" but no difference. Now, if they had incorporated the 'hike' option that is in the outdoors pack to, say, 'take a walk' then their little comment in response to people like me saying "but what can they do?" was "your sims can take a walk" would have made sense. So they are trying to respond to the things we criticize with some of their little comments and it doesn't come through, because they know darn well they are doing the exact same things they have been. Lastly, (though its really carrying through that second point there) many of us hearing their lackluster comments and thinking that they are sounding that way because they KNOW its got problems, they KNOW they didn't do anything different in regards to the world, they KNOW and are not enthusiastic themselves. So they should hire someone else to present that wouldn't really understand the game and would totally be faking it? No, at least let me read into it to know they at least feel bad about it.

Honestly, it IS a lot more in depth than base game weddings. It seems like it’s way more involved and customizable and needs more planning like an actual wedding, which makes it more of a lifetime event than essentially throwing a house party with wedding vows that the guests may or may not get to watch. It makes a bunch of wedding interactions that are usually left up to the player to imagine and made them into actual gameplay.

No more of a street type area. Just stalls and a dresser dresses up as a building. Cheat and lazy on EA's part.

Carl coming through with the only review we need. This GP looks highly skippable, though I might pick it up when it's on sale since that would be a far fairer price. Though since it seems to just be a bunch of things we can already do with some buggy new interactions and a new world, maybe ten bucks is still too much. And to think, there hasn't been anything gameplay related released in the better part of a year--and, really, calling Dream Home Decorator gameplay is already a stretch--and this is still the best they can produce. Doesn't bode well for the rest of Sims 4's lifespan (not that there was any reason to be hopeful before this). Honestly, much more excited to see how Carl makes Dine Out suck less.

Would have been nice to add some couple activities to do around town like a casino or a hotel or romantic restaurants or an amusement park.

So the idea of manually telling my sims to walk down the aisle, send the flower girl, as well as the other options I saw, is not ideal for me. We already have to manually tell our sims to get married in base game. If not, they won’t and it’ll be a lame party 😂 (I want to try a wedding now and see if they get married or not, I’m pretty sure they won’t though). All in all, I literally just want to click here and there and watch the wedding go down depending on the activities I chose for that specific wedding. I’m not a story teller simmer to this extreme. I will say that I’m definitely going to try it and see how it turns out. I’m actually pretty excited, no lie. The live stream did put a damper on it though 😂. Like….y’all boring or nah, do y’all care or nah, ya gonna put some pep in ya step or nah? 😂 Anyway thanks for the vid!

@@hope-cat4894 I would be scared if they did. My paranormal career is still borked when it worked when the game came out and they messed it up.

Why is their sample of the actual wedding so chaotic 💀

Hopefully it's a nice world to play in, that's all that I'm really interested in.

Hi Carl! Missed u! 💕 I don’t think I’ve played the Sims in over a year. Which sux cause it’s my absolute favorite game series. Maybe I’ll load it up again but I don’t think this is enough to draw me in. The game feels so lifeless and has so many issues, I wish they’d fix those instead of just making new pretty things to distract us. 🤷🏻♀️

This also would have been a great opportunity to include height sliders.

Honestly, seems like it should be a base game update instead of a game pack. This game would be a lot more fun if the AI wasn't so flawed, and immersion breaking.

I'm so not interested in playing at weddings in this game. Any game.

Interestingly, most of the wedding 'actions' are already in the base game, cutting cake together, feeding the cake to spouse, rng chance to smoosh cake into spouses face, etc etc and so on. I'm really only seeing a new world, new party types, new dance type, and a few build/buy items. It's just all meh. It's a shame that due to retail already being locked into Get To Work that we couldn't even have a one-off bridal retail shop instead of a rabbit hole, but even that tbh would be boring anyway. Even just a new CAS background that made CAS look like a bridal shop would have helped. Anyhoo, thanks for the brief appearance of the non-existent topless firemen for the "bach" party, I guess I'll just have to make me own - pretty much the norm for TS4 😐
