But... does it feature the all-important dad response of "go ask your mother"?

[kerred]

" I have grown from childhood to adulthood under the watchful eye of parents" nice try, Synth, but you can't fool us with that kind of language

[RetroJaro]

Now all we need is a orphanage option so we can create kid sims directly and not have to worry about making the parents.

Glad to hear that there are new chairs. Truly the only reason to buy DLC for any game. Still waiting for there to be The Sims 5: Everything's a Chair.

6:25 - "It's up to caregivers to provide feedback and moral support to help young sims grow in such a way that best fits societal norms" Shows a clip of a toddler being cared for by Duke Nukem wearing a roman legion outfit, XD

1:59 that child's walk cycle is a thing of nightmares when sped up LOL

Holy crap. This is the first add-on for TS4 that actually interests me. I also really like anything that adds realism to these games, which is why I don't really like the game as a whole very much, because it relies a lot on cartoon-esque humor. But as soon as you said something about acne, I had this flashback of TS2 and all the little details I loved about that game. I always just thought that everything made for this game was just rushed effort, but this is some serious potential.

227 views?! YA! You have *NO IDEA* how much I've been looking forward to this review! The second I saw the trailer, I was like "I can't wait for LGR to review this!"

[smellincoffee]

Getting a kid to grow up with the Polite trait from high manners REALLY helps out making friends. If you combine that plus the benefits from a positive reputation, you can pretty much insta-friend people.

I for some reason always rely on your reviews before buying any expansion. You're the best LGR, you always make me laugh and you give great insight in your reviews.

[DrSpaceman]

“Sharts are a thing now” kinda summarizes sims in general

[TheDawnofVanlife]

I know this is an old review, but I have to say I actually appreciate the rabbit hole volunteering and other "go away for awhile" events, clubs, etc and I wish they would just add more of them. Once your household is on the second and third kid, sometimes you just need time with less people to manage and so sending a sim or 3 to go off and do something where you don't have to manage them is really useful. Most people aren't going to do the parenthood pack in a bubble, they are going to be doing parenthood alongside a Sim who's working, trying to keep up a romantic relationship with their partner, etc. know life. And sometimes you are really grateful your teen can take their little brother out volunteering for a couple hours so you can just focus on potty training your toddler before you do those reports for work, lol.

@lazygamereviews have you considered reviewing the big "mods" for Sims 4, like "go to school". I'd love to hear your opinion on these!

[tarasloan]

I honestly just wish ea would add something that allows you to export your packs from different devices because I don’t play on pc anymore, I play on Xbox and I had so many packs on pc.

You are the only Sims reviewer/player that I haven't unsubscribed from over the years. Your reviews are short and to the point, and always funny. And as a bonus, you have the best review voice ever. And when you post let's plays they actually keep me interested.

[taranova]

I'm still playing the first three Sims games (haven't had any interest at all in ts4). The series has been getting progressively sillier and more game-y (ts3 was guilty of it too). I want a life simulation game that's mature, has consequences if you screw up, and isn't full of mini games and menus.

*Teenage Sims get in bed to do the nasty*
-REACHED DANCING LEVEL 3!

Sure they are. Sure they are.

2:10 I died when u made that reference lol

"Nukem Nukem, son of Duke Nukem".
It's like a metalore of LGR.
