I know I’m not very active atm, but I just had to chip in on the new expansion pack coming out :))
I don’t know about you guys, but I think this one looks to be a more finished and thought out expansion pack, which actually adds the stuff you first and foremost want from a Seasons pack. No “we added hamsters going to space, but then we had to remove the realistic part of them, like... actual interactions”.
I don’t need semi-fantasy stuff all the time. At least not at the expense of the essential stuff. The weather machine is a fine and OK touch. And it doesn’t ruin the pack for the people not needing it! Wohoo!
So I’m looking forward to it, seeing how it actually works with the game and how much it adds to it. I know I’ve missed Seasons, but when I play with it in game, will it fulfill the need?.
Sometimes its super easy and great that they just bring exactly what is expected, and not trying to make it more than it is all the time. This trend they have had in certain packs (the need for super crazy awesome new stuff no one thought about or wanted), has always seemed to be replacing the actual content that is expected.
So summed up: I’m excited, and positive, but trying not to have too big expectations... :D
