I love the new socials - having different social groups gives the townies a little more character, especially since they seem to make sense - an artsy bohemian neighbor probably is in a dance career and paints in her spare time! And I love the new interactions for parent/child too - that swinging around is great - my simkids may never play red hands again.
I love that they can jump rope almost anywhere - builds body & it's fun! bonus!
I'm enjoying the witchy aspect - my Atrociously Evil warlock made himself a Throne last night & he might as well just sell off his fridge, potty & bed - he doesn't need anything else any more!
