MICROTRANSACTIONS. Stop with the cutesy name BS. You've added microtransactions to the game.
Like the sims hasn't had those before? I remember the Sims 3 store. Now THAT was microtransactions. And they even had buyable loot boxes. And at least these aren't showcased *in* game. TS3 Store was always shown in CAS and I think maybe build/buy? Which was really annoying, especially if you tend to have impulse control issues like I did when I was 16. I spent almost all my money every paycheck in the Sims 3 store.
If kits are microtransactions, then so be it. But I much prefer these to the ones from TS3. I just checked, and 1000 sims points is $10 dollars. A single, random hat that I clicked on? Cost 100 sim points. $1 for a hat. I'd much rather spend $5 and get vacuums and aspirations or an entire kitchen set.
