On the one hand, we sorely need a LOT more romance-focused interactions. On the other hand, I'm not looking forward to digging for them every time the cursed pie menu thinks my sim would rather "Support facial hair" or "Ask if mermaid" on their sexy date 🙄
Literally have to pause the game just to find interactions before the sims walk away from each other
@@jackiedoesntcare That's why the pause function exists? You are meant to pause>queu>play it out> watch> pause> readjust queu> play it out> pause... etc...
Sims is not an mmo fps?
TwistedMexi released a mod for searchable interactions if you use mods. Literal game changer.
The pie chart just shows related interactions to the last social interaction you used before, when first pulled up. If no interactions were used prior, then it will give a general interaction for random categories to get you started. If you hit 'more' (usually at the top) it will show you a complete list of interactions, sorted by type, then subcategories. So for example, pull up the wheel> More choices> Romance> From there you can choose between flirt, affection, and physical interactions.
If an interaction isn't listed anywhere, then it isn't available for the sims you are using to converse with each other. For example, you won't find Woohoo options for minors, or romance interactions for aromantic sims, and you won't find fight options for sims you have no bad relations with, unless it's brawl day.
@wickywickyjoka let me explain it in a nicer way since you're new here. I've seen the interactions a million times. When sims are speaking and building relationships I'm queuing up interactions while the current ones play out. You only have space for a handful in the que and they don't take 10 minutes to play out while you search for the next relevant interaction. Hope that helps!
Remember in Sims 2 when we got nightlife that was romance, vampires, nightclubs, cars and restaurants all in one. What a wonderful time that was.
👏🏻👏🏻👏🏻
Back when the packs were actually worth their money
it was wonderful. honestly sims 2 are the best.
I remember that I enjoyed the packs in Sims 2 way longer than I do in Sims 4.
@@Haley._213the sims 2 as a whole is top tier but tbh sims 3 had the best and most expansive expansion packs. Chock full of content
A WHOLE expansion pack for, dating...? Oh no
I'm thinking they may add honeymoon vacations to the game. Still, I agree.
@@yasminni485 If they do that then people are gonna complain like ´why was this not in my wedding stories´
@@jasmijnvangils2650
Which I stand by. Dating, honeymoons, and weddings should be in one pack! And, you know, having the pack work would be nice as well.
@@jasmijnvangils2650 they should already know the answer to that. $$$ (Just like my second pet stuff)
@@jasmijnvangils2650 probably not cause my wedding stories was so long ago. I'm still more concerned that they're still selling my wedding stories knowing how buggy and broken it is all these years later
They can call it Wholesome Whims
that would be brilliant LMAO
That would be a new mod from Turbodriver, to fit between Wicked Whims and Wonderful Whims.
😂😂
What I imagine the EA team was saying:
Do they need it? No.
Did they ask for it? No.
It’s perfect.
a lot of people have been asking for online dating and hotels, along with the heart bed and hot tub- so if none of those things are included, they’ve messed up.
"Is it a good value, fully beta tested, and bugs worked out? No? Oh we're never going to fix the bugs? Perfect!"
In before they announce the sequel to Journey to Batuu, "Journey to Mandalore".
Also: “should this have been in the base game?” “Yes.”
“Perfect, they will buy it.”
No they asked “will people pay for it?” “Yes.
”That’s perfect”
I’m betting it’s called Sims 4: Date Night.
Let sims 4 diee!!!
@@crzycolchris tell that to EA
Called «Date Night» when a more realist title should be «Forever Alone Night» or «Eternally Broken».
I'm 100% sure there's already FREE mods for whatever they're getting ready to release..
@@SVIXIV I probably already have many, if not all, of them.
They really be dividing TS3 expansion packs in 50+ packs
there’s somewhere near 80 something packs including kits. insane
Yea I stopped playing sims 4 after I first noticed this trend years ago
Yeah.. I mean sims 3 was a little bad with all the packs… but sims 4 topped it with Scummy practices.
The cafe pack looks like a 20s/30s café, probably that pack destination is Paris. We don’t have “France” yet in game …
I was also thinking New Orleans, I was just there and I swear all of those things were in half the bars.
@SP-ch6uz yea i was thinking that exact same thing. We had paris as a vacation world in one of the old games i believe and Paris/France is known for romance.
@@cls3282 Willow Creek is already set in New Orleans so i kinda hope not. It would be really cheap of EA to do that but i wouldn't put it past them at all
Wait for real? Willow Creek looks nothing like New Orleans, I am shocked lmao. Welp, my b then, disregard
@@cls3282I only found out recently too 😂 but it makes sense with the houses having a southern plantation vibe and also the steamboat
EA are just thinking “why fix my wedding stories? We will just replace it with more broken stuff 🥰” 🤣
Perfect lead in, "I'm wet" lol
Sticky white liquids
It’s perfect for a video that makes you dry up like Death Valley

i don't know how much content they could put in a romance pack to justify expansion pack prices? maybe a matchmaker career? but even that sounds like it should be a game pack
@mystic_scythe Nah, Windenburg is the last european place we're ever going to see in this game.
@@wickywickyjoka i actually think a Paris inspired city is fitting the aesthetic of this promo, so it's not really a reach
@@wickywickyjokaBritechester is UK inspired, and Tartosa is Mediterranean (Italy)
@@daniqueneefjes6543Henford on Bagley is also a European countryside town.
@@daniqueneefjes6543 Yeah, then Britechester is what I meant. Where they go to school. Guess Windenburg just sounds scholarly to me.
I wouldn't include my wedding stories, if not for the fact that it's not an expansion, then for the fact that it's not playable.
But, all of these packs came out way before this major shift in politics and the risks for releasing ANY media whatsoever weren't so high.
Clicked so fast once i saw that thumbail lmao 💀
Fr
Same lmaooo
Fr
Same😂😂😂😂
Same! [even though I'm in a car rn. I stopped and parked to watch]
Soo my wedding stories should just be deleted at this point it's about to be replaced
what pack? who, idk her
NO!!! I NEED TARTOSA AND THE FENCES FROM IT SM OML. My wedding stories is one of my favorite packs because of tartosa. It may be broken but no need to scrap it entirely.
Nah it’s just there to introduce more bugs
Dating and getting married are very...*very* different things, my friend. I don't plan weddings and go on honeymoons with every person I date. xD
@@christabelle__Having different packs for different stages of romance is hella crazy please don't defend it
Don't really need a "flirtatious" expansion pack, I've got WickedWhims.
Lmaoooo
exactly what i was thinking😭🙏🏽
Aaayyy🎉
Same 😂😂
Yup. And it’s addons. And other romance mods. There’s a ton and I caught my sims intimately dancing today (a mod I can find if anyone needs) it was so sweet had me smiling
So obviously Parisian Getaway. The objects are all bistro, and the roadmap sort of shows the American “Emily in Paris” idea of France.
I'll tell you how they're going to upsell a game pack's worth of content as an EP again; they're counting on the new generation of Simmers who have never known the joys of the previous iterations of the franchise to dive in head first and be blown away by the aesthetic of it.
its always the "newer simmers" that shut down the og simmers and always gotta defend ea, smh and ea knows that, that's why they always point them out and shade us smh, this roadmap gonna be ridiculous 😂😂
@@_emoboii_I wish those people could play sims 2. They’d love it so much and look at 4 in such a new light after seeing what they’ve missed
@@beelzebabe4441 Yess I wish xbox and playstation players could play it as well, ea could make money as well by putting that game on consoles for console players and some Mac players fr
@@_emoboii_fr as a kid playing sims 2: apartment life (most of the expansions were good but omg that one.. chefs kiss) was honestly my happy place as a preteen😂 I wish I could play it again tbh I’d ditch ts4 for it so fast😝
@@beelzebabe4441 Yesss like, ea find the worse ways to make money, I miss the sims 3 so much, it was pure life and the sims 2 relationship system oh my gosh, it was amazing.
I remember when I first started playing the sims 3 and I was flirting with this male sim, and it said "break up with Heather" who was his wife, so I pressed it and the next day the male sim liked me but his now ex wife hated me, we don't get that sorta detail in the sims 4, not even loyal sims in create a sim..dang
SATCH YOU DID NOT CALL IT MY FIRST WOOHOO LMAOOOO
Looks like tartosa/ my wedding stories refresh
foreshadowing
That would be nice
god i really hope so
"Refesh" as in another $40 for a new romance pack that's also completely broken just like the wedding pack that they never bothered to fix.
If by “refresh” you mean yet another similar paid DLC that’s going to come out broken and never fixed then replaced by another pointless “refresh” then yes. That’s the shit 4 for the past 10 years 🤡
Wait, romance pack in our toned down child-friendly the sims 4?
My First Playground Puppy Love -Stuff- Expansion
It’s definitely not child friendly😂
compared to the old games??? this is a kids game lol
@@gretagoogames yeah people are missing the point lol. sims 4 is for children!!!
The sims series is for kids above 12 years old. So basically all games are for kids, even if they have some dirty jokes and scenes.
You're not negative. You're honest.
That smartphone icon is giving me tarot card vibes, kind of making me think about fortune reading.
City Living Romance Festival
My genuine assumption looking at the map is it's about to be a Hotel/Resort pack.
They clearly have the framework for it now, and that's the only thing I can see leading to EXPANSION PACK levels of content.
yeah that's definitely a possibility they could use the rental lot system and just slap on a hotel sticker and boom new expansion and with how lazy they are I can see that happening
I was thinking the same thing which would be nice because hotels are way overdue!!!
@@wendyhodnett824 how would they make hotels different from rentals?
Yeah especially because you couldn’t make residential rentals on beach front lots, so I think they saved that functionality for a resort pack
The bar/café kit definitely is inspired by Paris Bistro. You see that style of furniture in Parisian cafes quite often and is considered traditional.
Also, Paris is considered the city of love which makes totally sense in a romance themed roadmap.
An expansion pack based on sims woohooing..? A honeymoon pack? Which will hopefully not be as broken as the wedding. It’s an EP, so they better not have it be like Horse Ranch where it’s basically a game pack
Edit: Fountains? Pools? We can already screw in waterfalls, hot tubs, hot springs, and caves… So that’s nothing groundbreaking, Sims Team. Fountain of Desire? The romance festival literally has that in City Living soooo
I disagree. Horse Ranch is a good expansion pack. A lot of useful n versatile build/buy. A big world. It has more than horses, it also has goats n sheep which I love. And also brewing gameplay. It could be better, but that can be said for every expansion/pack
@@iamnotjack.whydidichangeIs definally a game pack having 3 animals doesn't make a expansión
@@VaaleBeetancurG i said other things too and you ignored them.
@@VaaleBeetancurG No but adding new gameplay functions that 'expand' other packs and the base game is.
ex·pan·sion
/ikˈspanSH(ə)n,ekˈspanSH(ə)n/
noun
noun: expansion; plural noun: expansions
the action of becoming larger or more extensive.
"the rapid expansion of suburban Washington"
extension of a state's territory by encroaching on that of other nations, pursued as a political strategy.
"German expansion in the 1930s"
a thing formed by the enlargement, broadening, or development of something.
"the book is an expansion of a lecture given last year"
By definition, it is an expansion pack. And so are game packs, and even some stuff packs. Unless you want to argue that adding new jobs, new interactions, new items with new abilities, and new people to the world is not 'broadening' or 'developing' anything...
@iamnotjack.whydidichange they're not that many tho, I agree it's more the size of a gamepack. Sorry but it is
What’s in a romance expansion pack? Well, let’s see… they’ve already covered engagements, weddings, compatibility, found a ring calls, crushes, fated mates… and while they may have only sort of covered honeymoons this roadmap seems to focus more on the meeting/dating end, so…. online dating and… uh… horoscopes? My Dating Stories, which takes the base game date event and breaks it? 🤷🏼♀️
Maybe they’ll at least add the heart bed for real this time 😂
Lol not horoscopes 😂
By already covered, do you mean already broken? Haha
You would think they would include weddings in some romance pack but no they had to make sure to sell it separate. In a broken state too of course
I think it'll be the French Riviera. The whole roadmap looks very underwhelming, especially after the leaks.
Why Sims 4 roadmaps looks so low effort/made in Paint?
I also think we are getting an upsold pack. I get LATAM vibes form the little town drawing, so maybe we'll get a romance festival and it's going to be just a copy paste from the City Living one.
oh yeah, they have straight canva vibes. like at least use photopea 🤦🏼
probably some unpaid intern designing them 😅
On twitter, someone mentioned the banners could be papel picado. A Mexican-inspired city would fit the theme so well - fingers crossed!
I studied illustration and graphic design this would not fly not even in the junior classes tbh. C- maybe
A romance pack will be like High School Pack.
Some Online Dating with way too few options.
Maybe one cool spot to hang out and the rest will be 1 or two rabbit holes.
That will be it.
No upload for a couple of days as I uploaded twice today. Make sure to check out my review of the online dating mod! czcams.com/video/CxyBaG8jnc0/video.htmlsi=7d3A-MEpTfsteOwW
"My first desert luxe kit stuff"🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣🤣Satch you are hilarious
the cafe kit is definitely french
@mystic_scythe yes, it seems logical. My country is see nlike "romantic" (what a scam😂)
Yes I live in France and yes, the tablecloths, the wine, all that is French cafes
my First EuroDisney stuff pack?!
What’s annoying is that they keep releasing packs that we already have…why does it take 4 packs to give us the equivalent of a sims 3 expansion pack that only cost 20dollars. I feel like the sims team considers bugs as extra content as we get plenty of those in each new pack.
I hope for the iconic bed😮❤. I was basically all ready in the basement kit, they only need to put it together 😂
I'm getting my wedding stories vibes, and I'm scared 😭
it's gonna be a pack trying to fix of My Wedding Stories (spoiler: it'll broke it even more)
Eh. I have Wicked Whims I don’t need a dating pack 😂
I’m hyped for release to see if a mod performs better than an official “expansion pack” (it probably will)
It's a Playboy expansion pack - Playboy Mansion, Hef's Grotto, skimpier swimsuits, & God knows what all everybody got down to in that place as "flirty".
My First cocaine fueled orgy stuff pack!!!
I would love if it was ratchet lol,like sims get slutty idk kinda like whicked whims but pg 13.
they're going to ruin dates like they did weddings lol
Hopefully it will come with the iconic heart hot tub 🤞
it's going to be my first pet thingy all over again 🙄
That white arch looks like arch de triumph in Paris. I think we are getting Paris inspired world. Or France in general.
I had to check the date bc I was positive this was an April fools joke that I missed.
Literally!
I can't possibly imagine what romance-related stuff can be as big as expansion-size worthy.
Right? If anything it should have been a game pack. Since as we know the new worlds are mostly set dressing with only very few plots that are interactive.
This could be such a dream pack with:
- a new world based off of Paris or Rome
with hotels
where sims can go on a honeymoon
- around 3 new woohoo locations such as fountain, pool, sea
- one-sided crushes and other sims flirting up and pursuing my sim cause I'm bored of having to initiate all the time, including stuff like a secret admirer, an annoyingly persistent suitor and receiving gifts and love letters (like in the Sims 2 after successful dates), especially my teen sim when they open their locker
- an attraction system - would have been great tied together with a High School Years popularity system but that ship has sailed
- childhood crushes
- online dating
- matchmaker career
- heart bed and heart tub.
But it's probs far from what it will actually be
Theyre definitely doing a Parisian world, and then I'm getting Trevi Fountain in Rome from the "fountain of desire" part. And it makes sense because both are locations associated with romance. If so, there's a good chance those packs will focus on the cultural aspects since both of them are very well-known tourist destinations.
At least, that's kind of what I'm hoping for. If not then I'm tired and will ignore everything this "season"
At this point Strangerville qualifies as an expansion pack since it comes with Audrey II (lil shop of horrors) possessing a town that is a larger and much nicer world. It would be a better expansion pack then the last few.
“Is this a poem?” 😂😂😂😂
You're the only sim CZcamsr who tells the blunt truth!!! We love that
I love how honest you are even when you are sponsored you dont make something look better than it is and your one of my favourite simmers ❤
I just saw their preview and I RAN here. The vibe of the preview video is sooo 90s corn coded 😭🤣
How is this an expansion pack? Its more an gamepack or smth😭
Because it’s EA silly! 🤪
"Money"
The problem with a dating pack is, usually, it leads to marriage which, usually, means a wedding... So, I can't justify buying a dating pack until MWS functions as intended.
Hey Satch! You always put a smile on my face. I hope you have a wonderful day.
I hope they ask the creator of the kiss and grind mod and the passionate gift mod to help with this expansion! If you haven’t seen their mods HIGHLY RECOMMEND…
I'm definitely thinking the world that will come with the romance expansion pack will be Paris/France inspired. Notice in the middle of the map there is an arch which looks very similar to the Arc de Triomphe. The cafe/bar is definitely giving Paris bistro too. Also Paris=Romance.
Almost like the perfect opportunity to fix weddings!!!!!!!!!!!!!! 🙄🤦♀️
It’ll fix weddings but break everything else
Is it weird that I'm hoping this pack comes with affair/secret relathionship gameplay 😬
Teacher here: Going to correct you on the learned helplessness theory a little bit. You got the gist, where someone does give up when trying something difficult. It's more geared towards the idea that they'll give up because they've learned that is benefits them to do so when someone else steps in. "If I act helpless, eventually someone else will do it for me" is the thought process behind it. I've seen plenty of students with this and it is a beast to overcome.
Also a teacher and I hate it when I encounter a child who does this. I once had a girl who literally refused to do anything unless I ‘helped’ her, which for her meant doing it for her. I told her I’d only help her once she put in some effort herself and explained to me how far she’d got and what she was stuck on, at which point she’d start screaming that I was so mean and awful because I wasn’t helping her, and wouldn’t stop (screaming and disturbing the others) unless (a) I did her work for her, which I wouldn’t, or (b) she was removed from my class. She didn’t learn a single thing that year and both she and her parents hated me (her parents also expected me to enable her because, well, guess where she’d learned the helplessness from). It was the worst class I’d ever had, purely because of that one child.
@@HerHollyness Parents can be the worst part of the job sometimes, honestly! Sadly it sounds like she will have a rough time overcoming that hurdle, unless she manages to find someone willing to do things for her for the rest of her life.
Also had a grade two parent complete an entire project I assigned for their child. I could tell. It's like.. congrats on getting an A in grade TWO science when you're what, 40? Please!
😅 That’s Maxis/TS4 in a nutshell! They halfway do the job because they know modders will do the rest of the work, and everyone is happy (sort of)
@@HerHollyness I don’t think a CZcams comment section is the place to complain about one of your students. Especially a child.
You don’t want your boss to describe your inadequacies in a comment section either, do you?
@@voxnihili4960yes it is

It seems like another base game update as an EP….😅
Ea be reasonable challenge
They're truly running out of ideas 😭
I'm honestly more excited about seeing your cake than any new broken content for TS4
EA has been up-selling game packs as expansions since Island Living and it hasn’t stopped. We’re just gonna get another pack that will leave a lot to be desired
Wow sims 4 is just so creative! They always have so many ideas for new packs wow!😊
💀💀💀💀
Love how you are the only Sims CZcams that keeps it real and is not kissin EAs behind
If they release a pool kit without water slides I’m done 🙃🙃
The leak didn't show water slides, so yeah, bout that...
i’m hoping for new proposal options like proposing at the dinner table etc and cuddling on bed like they had in sims 3
I love watching you Satch because you are so honest about everything!
I really appreciate the honesty and don’t think your being negative. It’s the truth and maybe with the competition coming out, they could start pulling their heads out their asses.
these packs gonna be soo safe and broken, everyone put your cards/cash and gift cards away 😂
I love your videos. I’ve been trying to learn how each pack and kit work and your videos are very helpful ❤
I have been playing the sims since it started, for many moons. I am a negative Nelly as well. They don't care about fixing what is broken, they are all about money. People keep buying the stuff so they keep throwing it at us. I love your videos and your honesty!
I was just talking about this to a friend of mine last night. I shared some screenshots from Wicked Whims (a smexy mod for those who don't know) and the difference between the mod and the vanilla intimacy (not the smex/woohoo) is like night and day. With WW, sims behave like a normal couple, they hug and cuddle, they embrace and get close to each other when they smooch and just genuinely look like they're deeply in love with their significant other.
With Vanilla, it is the most sexless with little to no chemistry between couples I have ever seen. The animations were awkward and janky, there's a gap between the couple large enough for the holy spirit. Some vanilla animations are nice, but they're just too safe, too waterred down.
Given how poorly they handled "dating" in TS3, seriously my sim was like getting "matches" with every NPC in town regardless of marital status, love letters and gifts in the mail with no option to turn down the suitor or to tell them to bugger off. I am very concerned that this "my first woohoo" is on the horizon.
The more pressing question is what kind of cake are you baking?? Thanks for the double release, made my day! 🤩
What I'm excited for is the Pool Waterfall. I hope there is Pool Slides as well.
Just letting everyone know that Henford Hen dropped some… very obvious hints as to what’s coming with this EP for those curious 👁️👁️
Hi just tried to find the hints you mentioned but couldn't find anything 😕 could let me know what was hinted at? 😊
@@Em_ber14 there were tweets and emojis. If they deleted I assume they did it for a reason
No thanks, I’ll stick with my romance/love mods
When learning of these, I was way more negative than Satch! This romance stuff just feels like it'll be a disaster alr
It’s been less than an hour wow you’re so quick 😂 I love that, I wondered who I’ll see first talking about it
I have that same timer alarm and I thought I set a timer that I hadn't realized when I heard yours go off! 😂
Expansion pack is My wedding story 0.2
Is it just me or does the two little "rhymes" 'A little nectar led to a provocative plunge' and 'Fountain of desire made waves but we woohoo'd anyway' sound like we are getting some new woohoo spots?
one of my favourite aspects of the sims 2 nightlife was that you had interactions that you could do sitting at a dinner table (eg. holding hands, sharing a bite, etc.) and i would LOVE for these to be added into this 'romance' pack
I have such fond memories of Sims Hot Date. It was my first sims pack and I'm kind of shocked my mom let me buy it at like 12 lol
Stop worrying about the negative stuff people may say, you tell it how it is!
Maybe its based in france since you know the city of romance.
Not the learned helplessness. 😂😂😂 This is not how I thought I'd be putting my degree to use
LOL Satch when your alarm went off I legit went to look at my phone like wth I didn't put an alarm😂
SimDa - The Expansion pack. 🤣
dang sims 4.... they should've put all these "packs" and expansions into sims 3... they gave up on sims three after 5 years and they gonna pump out stuff for sims 4 for 20 years...
Why am I so addicted to your channel 😂
8:36
The panic and annoyance that, that alarm sat off in my entire nervous system, cannot be left uncommented.
My first what now?😭
For console players a dating app is a NEED
@mystic_scythe right but im assuming the mod allows you to generate potential dates based on specific criteria without having to go searching in the wild/make them in cas yourself
@mystic_scythe That doesn’t make any sense. Sounds like you’re just trying to be contrarian. Do you consider the Messages and Phone apps on your phone dating apps?
I'm curious how they're defining a "destination" pack. Is is going to bring a new world? Or will it just have some new furniture? In my head a "destination" sounds like a vacation world. But that's a lot to fit in a single kit. All kits so far has brought a couple of objects or cas items and that's all. Only Bust the Dust really added some gameplay. I don't see that changing.
The cafe/bar is def a French cafe to go with the romance vibe and the mediterranean goes with a lot of pool themes and romance.
I just want to see the come-back of the stripper in the cake, but it never gonna happen 😂
We still need carnivals/roller coasters pack, a world adventures expansion pack, a real estate pack with a city like new York, CARS and HOTELS. yet we are still getting random expansion packs like get rent that suck and have content worth of stuff packs and are rebrands of old packs they couldn't get right.
I would like a new York based ep, with no sims at the time Square, because of the sims😂
@@carmencroes626city living had a decent amount of isms roaming around the neighborhoods I hope they do another city world so weird that for 10 years we only ever got one city. 2 should be it
I'm thinking/hoping the world is going to be Mexico-inspired, looking at the arched windows, roof and door trim, diamond designs, and colorful banners. The vibes of the roadmap and the architecture don't say Paris AT ALL to me. *Maybe* Italy or Iberia. Hotels being included could make it a decent expansion pack, but I'm not holding my breath for that.
Hotels/Resorts are definitely coming this year, I'm so happy!
