Non-family players want bunkbeds, too!

I also play some families, but my focus is on teenagers and young adult roommates (and they also party). The reason I started this thread is that I was genuinely surprised during the Tiny Living lifestream that the Gurus seem to consider bunkbeds something that only family players might want to stuff in another kid or two. Maybe I misunderstood the tone, but in any case, I wanted to chime in that I, as a non-family player, would have gotten much more out of bunkbeds than of Murphy beds. My families don't need either of those, it's the young adults that are desperate for bunkbeds.
Sure, Murphy beds on first glance have more gameplay attached to them, but I'd rather have an object that I can use in many builds to make them feel right (and also to save space).

Households and venues I where I would put them include boarding schools, sports team training camps, military barracks, youth hostels, camping lodges, prisons, space stations, exploration basecamps and last but not least that submarine that I'll need when my oceanographers have graduated.

I hope some more non-family players will agree and add their voices here for a united front!
  • I'm not as into bunkbeds but I'd truly love couple and single loft beds so I could put whatever under those

    save space and add some height separation to my sims rooms

    so if there is bunkbeds one day please don't forget to make loft bed while at it
  • Whatever reason a dev gives for a feature not being in a game is whatever excuse they could come up with on the spot, and the playerbase takes it at face value but it was never the real reason.
    I can safely say it has nothing to do with family or non family players, it's more that they don't care to invest the time and money bunk beds would require for now.

    It's much more fun making over the top murphy bed death animations, or something.

    If TS4 devs have to choose between wacky and sensible, they will always, always go for wacky.
  • I would like some bunk beds too, honestly I'm stumped at the fact they went with a murphy bed instead of a bunk bed for tiny living

    But oh well :/
  • This is why I really hope that when (?) bunkbeds do arrive, so do loft beds we can put something else functional underneath.
