LGR - The Sims 3 Last Venue of Amore Review

Review of the final downloadable lot for The Sims 3: Last Venue of Amore. What all does it include? Is it worth the cash? How awkward is making love on a gondola?

Huge thanks to "catloverplayer" for gifting this lot!

"A bite sized appetizer should never cost as much as a full sized meal."

I have to say, that is the best one liner LGR could have possibly used to wrap up his Sims 3 video series. 

I wonder what LGR is going to think of The Sims 4, I'm thinking it'll be a "two steps forward, three steps back" approach.

"Hey, we made a few Venice files that were going to be included in world adventures, what do we do with them?"
"slap them together into a downloadable lot."

[drae]

God this just screams desperation those rooms were the most depressing thing ever.

[Ghost_Of_SAS]

Pro tip: if you ever go to Venice, do not have sex in a gondola. Not only can that seriously piss off the owner, but you may lose your balance and fall in the canals, and trust me: you don't want to fall in that water.

The only nice thing EA has done recently is release The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection for free. I scooped that up as fast as I could and am enjoying it more than I ever enjoyed Sims 3. Mostly because it actually runs on my laptop and I'm just having way more fun with it.

EA's logic on pricing is insulting. A lot or venue is half the price of a full expansion pack that comes with multiple lots and venues and sometimes a world. How does that make sense to them? I never bought one store item ever and I'm quite proud but they really need to reevaluate their pricing. I'm sure the Sims 4 will follow suite which sucks if it does. But you said it best with your appetizer line LGR and that's the truth!

Can't wait for The Sims 5! (Skipping 4th.)

"Sims 3 Dlc is overpriced" little did he know about the sims 4

[WlauBlauization]

This just makes me wonder if they even tried. I mean, sure, like pointed out in the video it does look nice. But the houses are pretty bare inside and no resturants or stores? Really? And while I like the idea of the gondolas, how can they not have someone steering them? While it's kind of hilarious watching Duke steering it, it should've been an option to have your sim in control of it and not a requirement.

[AndrewDBarker]

I love how Duke checks his watch while Clint makes out.. "Oh come on!"

Doesn't really matter what kind of hardware you have with the sims 3. It leaks data like the Titanic. It's the most broken, & poorly coded game I've ever played.

[karenapasco]

The last venue should have been free, I mean its the last one . I was very dissapointed when I saw this come out.

[angelyeas]

I find it so weird how EAxis hasnt tried to bribe Clint with money to whip out fake good reviews for their games. There are ALOT of people who depend on his reviews in particular to be the deciding factor on whether or not to purchase. Heck, the only reason i got Sims3 was because of him. Clint, i hope you know how much power you have, dude  XD

[SunrayFilms]

My god, I wish EA would just listen to what you have to say! $19 is way too expensive for just 1 lot. As I've been saying forever now, why would someone pay $19 for a simple lot or set of clothes when you could buy an entire stuff pack or expansion for that almost same amount of money? What you said at the end, "A bite sized appetizer should never cost as much as a full sized meal" really sums up what I've been trying to say over time now lol. The Sims 3 Store sets should never be any more than $5, and worlds shouldn't even exceed $10.

[TheRealTHD]

Man, what a bust. Seems like business as usual for EA. Thankfully there's a Sims modding community so people can snub their nose at overpriced crap. It's our duty to show people where they can get good stuff for less or free.

[HPDM]

Brilliantly wrapped up the whole of my Sims 3 experience, expensive, slow and unsatisfying. The Sims 3 may have more detail and content than the Sims 2 but that's worth nothing when a perfectly up to date computer continuously crashes when playing the game. I downloaded the Sims 4 CAS and I really like it, but I won't buy the game until I have seen/ read the reviews (including yours). Great video, I wouldn't pay more than a penny for this venue, though not exactly the same but if I want to experience Venice I'll play Assassins Creed 2, which is a lot older than Sims 3 but the gameplay and experience is way better. 

[TheOneFreeMan]

It's a little sad to realize this is probably the last piece of sims 3 content that LGR will review.

[fullname]

I love how real you are. Most sim youtubers tend to suck up to damn EA but you just get straight to it. Definitely will be checking here for TS4 review before buying, can't wait.

[HeroicPunk]

I don't even love The Sims, but I love all your Sims videos. Can't wait for all your reactions to The Sims 4, by the way. Keep up the fantastic work! *thumbs up*

[Armadyz]

How much is it if you want all of the content for this game? 1000$? Lol... uhh..
