Obviously you can't control it, but you wouldn't intentionally increase the odds of getting twins and triplets. Having twins or heaven forbid triplets throws it off greatly. I think it has to do with the fact pregnant sims don't age and the 8 sims per household limit.

    CAS UNLOCK TIP: If you go to the gallery and search 'cas unlock' under households, you should be able to find a sim that you can add to your household to unlock all the hidden cas stuff! It can be limiting bc it can take a while for these gallery sims to be updated with the newest unlockable cas stuff, but if you want a quick and easy way to unlock hidden cas stuff, thats how!

    I agree on the hair clips and hair colors. With the clips, I wish they had separate swatches where that would be interchangeable, such as gold, silver, and copper, or clear like with barrettes so it can go with any color of hair. Then have separate swatches for the flower on the clip. And with the hair itself, they need to have sliders like they have for the makeup. That way there will be a multitude of different colors for each style. It would be so freeing and creative to have this.

    23:11 "you can propose with things that you have crafted" okay that is ADORABLE !! my grandfather made jewelry, and i think either he or my dad (or both) proposed with a ring he made. i know he definitely gave my mom (his daughter in law) a necklace, which i always found very sweet, like a sign of approval. the fact that they've worked things like this into the pack is soooo cool! i might just have to get it one of these days (and maybe that pack with witchcraft... i can finally make the witchy house of my DREAMS instead of just putting debug crystals everywhere lmao)

    I could not disagree with you more on the CAS stuff 😂 Honestly, it's a jewellery pack not a clothing pack, so I think the stuff you get in CAS in terms of clothing is actually kind of great (And I love the dark academia vibes they went with. Absolutely gorgeous). The fact that they made over 1000 different combinations of jewellery for the pack shows they put a lot of effort into it, and I feel like it's a bit unfair to be criticising them on how 'little' CAS stuff there is, when you can unlock so much more. I do, however, agree with you on the hair clip thing. I wish you could change it separately, but at least it's in the back of your sims head so you can't always see it🤣

  • @shawntaylor8869
    @shawntaylor8869 8 місяців тому +4

    unpopular opinion but am i the only one who actually likes the fact that in order to get the jewelry from the pack you have to actually do it in game??? they’re supposed to be special to your sim and that’s what the intention was, hence the thousands of option there are. that’s the whole point of “gameplay” 😭😭

    There's some sims on the gallery called CAS unlock that you can just add right in with all the career, knitting etc. stuff unlocked. I'm sure they'll be updated very soon after the pack drops

    I’d love to see a Fashion Designer pack now. Maybe something similar to Dream Home Designer where you need to hand make outfits for clients based on their taste. Somewhat like the thrift store function in High School Years but you get more home-studio style mannequins and your sim gets to use sewing machines and inspiration boards. The build items can be studio stuff with rolled up material and messy tables with thread and scissors all over it. I’d love to see clothes that look more amateurish and obviously sewn together when you’re early in the skill and then gorgeous outfits when you’ve maxed it.
