Can I hear 5 random facts about Ryan? c: Once you get this, paste it into 5-10 people’s inboxes whose characters you’d like to know better! :)

  1. Ryan’s a very creative sim and is constantly playing guitar, thinking of new comedy routines or playing with dough and creating objects. However, he’s not really into drawing or painting that much.
  2. Whilst Valera is very independent, Ryan isn’t. He relies on Valera and it’s obvious she’s his rock.
  3. Although Ryan’s excited and looking forward to having children of his own he’s also very scared and apprehensive. He’s worried he won’t be a good dad and that he won’t know what to do.
  4. Ryan doesn’t like ice-cream. It’s too cold and he’s rather have some grilled cheese or a hot dog.
  5. He sometimes wishes he had red hair so he’d look more like his mum. He was very jealous of Booker because of that.

Hi! 💚 Can you tell me five random facts about Valera? Once you get this, paste it into 5-10 people’s inboxes whose characters you’d like to know better! :)

  1. Valera’s very independent and doesn’t really rely on Ryan for anything. As much as she loves and adores him, she knows she could manage fine on her own if something were to ever happen.
  2. Even though she knows she’s not the most beautiful sim in the world, Valera’s very confident in her looks and feels comfortable in her skin 99% of the time.
  3. Valera takes her work very seriously and wants to work her way up with hard work and effort. Even so, she wants to meet lots of new people and make many friends along the way.
  4. Her favourite colour is blue.
  5. She wouldn’t ever tell it to his face but Valera didn’t like the way Ryan and Eleanor treated Booker. It was obvious he was lonely and needed help but Valera didn’t feel it was her place to push her opinions on either of them. Sometimes she wonders how things might’ve turned out had she spoken up earlier.

Ooh I have a lot! 2, 3, 4, 14, 17 :)

2. TS1, TS2, TS3 or TS4 – and why?

Oh man, it’s really difficult to choose between TS2 and TS4. I think I’m gonna have to go with TS2 just because there’s so much more to do and in my opinion, it’s the peak of the series. Maybe that’ll change by the time TS4 has all it’s expansions and stuff but right now I think TS2 offers the best experience all round.

3. Favourite Expansion and Stuff Pack?

For TS1: Probably Pets because… pets!

For TS2: Expansion Pack wise, as much as I love Pets, I’d probably go with University. I think it just added so much and it was all done so well. It’s just really fun and enriches your sims’ lives. Stuff Pack, definitely Family Fun Stuff – THOSE PJ’S WITH THE SLIPPERS.

For TS4: Well we only have GTW so far, so I guess that lol. Game pack, I’d pick Spa Day over Outdoor Retreat. For Stuff Packs I’d go with Perfect Patio just because of the hot tubs. I do really like the clothing and hair in Luxury Party though. 

4. Least Favourite Expansion and Stuff Pack?

For TS1: Livin’ Large. I just didn’t really use much from it and found it kind of pointless. Especially since I never had that many parties or anything in TS1.

For TS2: This is really hard, I love them all… FreeTime maybe? I think for Stuff Packs it’d Mansion & Garden just because I haven’t really even explored it all that much.

For TS4: Cool Kitchen Stuff because as much as I love the ice-cream and the kitchen stuff, there isn’t enough of it. I do like all the CAS items but… I don’t understand why they’re included in a kitchen pack.

14. What’s your favourite world?

Even though I don’t play in it all that often because my main legacy is in Willow Creek I’m gonna pick Oasis Springs. I’ll get some spares moved there soon so I can explore it more!

17. Who’s your favourite EAxis townie/family?

Goopy GilsCarbo, of course!

Wcif those little icons, like the penguin, in your description? How are they like for TS4 but are not in game? (most of them)

You can get them on MTS here. That isn’t actually the one I have at the moment (I downloaded this one) but I just came across that newer one and I’ll probably grab it since it’s been updated and has Spa Day icons as well.

The icons are apparently in the game, one of the descriptions says they’re used for thought bubbles though I’ve never seen half of the icons used in-game myself!

Okay so some people are saying that it looks like University while others are saying that it looks like Night Life so which is it? I mean it looks like tons of fun anyway! What do you think it is? Seems like there’s possible a dance skill maybe slow dancing hopefully? I know a lot of people were hoping for Toddlers and I want them to and I have hope they will come but this Expansion looks FANTASTIC! I just hope there’s a bunch of new Traits & Aspirations! Anyway I would love to hear your opinion

Right, so, I think people are thinking it’s a little bit like Uni because it’s focusing on the YA life stage and the activities are kind of late teen related things – like going out to clubs, dancing, joining social groups etc. Which also mixes in with Nightlife.

Personally, I don’t think it’s related enough to school to be considered Uni-like, at least I hope not because I still want a Uni specific EP. I don’t know exactly how Uni worked with TS3 since I only played it for 2 mins but I played a fair amount of Uni in TS2. I loved my sims going off to college and having to go through freshman all the way to graduating, picking a major, studying in groups etc and then getting a headstart in certain jobs when they graduate. So Get Together, I assume, doesn’t have any of that, which is fine, as long as we get it later.

It does seem a lot closer to Nightlife in that it focuses on dancing, trying on outfits before you go out, the DJ booth etc. And yes, there is a dancing skill as well as a DJ skill! I don’t know about slow dancing because that seems more like a romantic sort of thing rather than going out clubbing but we’ll see!

People have been hoping for toddlers since before the game even came out and the uproar about it is ridiculous because as other people have said there was no hint of this announcement being toddlers. Literally any mention of TS4 news people latch onto the idea that it might be toddlers and it’s mind-boggling. They’ll be here when they’re ready and that’s all I have to say about it.

I agree, I think the EP looks great. I’m staying realistic about it though because I got too excited and hyped about GTW and ended up being a little disappointed because of some small things. Fire dancing looks awesome, I love the old ruins place, the town looks lovely and I’m sure the dancing will be hilarious.

I’ll be honest and say I won’t be happy at all if there isn’t any new traits or aspirations. Truthfully though, I feel like GTW had more reasons to have new aspirations/traits over Get Together does so far but we’ve only seen 1 short announcement trailer so we can’t make any huge decisions about it yet. I just wonder what kind of traits/aspirations they could include in Get Together, idk.

The one thing I’m really hoping for and can’t stop thinking about is vampires. Typically, vamps come out with the nightlife EPs and there’s almost always something supernatural added in each EP, so it makes sense right? If you go on the Get Together Store Page it says;

“There’s just something about Sims from Windenburg that makes you want to meet them all.”

And I just can’t help but think that something is that they’re vampires and vampires are generally very alluring and charming and people are drawn to them, right? AM I JUST REACHING HERE?

Overall, I’m excited and I can’t wait to hear more info. From what we’ve seen so far, I think it looks great and will add a lot to the game.
