Seriously, yet another boring full expansion of something that should have been a gamepack at best. They lack imagination, it's high time we get a full expansion for this game focused on the more fantastical aspects. We have already seen so much of boring every day family life.
I wouldn't go so far to say all of that however…. Water Heaters wow, that is just riveting game play.
Here is a list that EA may wish to consider of equal entertainment value.
- Adding Salt to a Water Softener
- Mowing the Lawn
- Power washing the garbage can
- Standing in Line at the Post Office
- Slowly and neatly folding socks
- Flossing
- Window shopping…at the grocery store
- Doing your Income Tax return
- Ironing clothing
- Closely observing the movement of a weathervane or a sun dial
- Watching Golf on TV
- Painting the Mailbox
- Cleaning the hair out of a shower drain
- Looking out a window for packages to arrive
- Mopping and then re-mopping the kitchen floor to make it extra clean
- Stamp Collecting
- Using car wax on the outdoor furniture and placing covers on it for the winter season
- Being on hold, because the call is very important to them
- Watching paint dry
- Contemplating my navel
- Checking for Dust Bunnies under the Sofa & Bed
- Checking the Cushions for Change
You forgot swimming pool cleaning
Actually I didn’t forget. I think pool cleaning would be an ok addition IF two conditions can be met. 1. We can hire an attractive pool boy (girl) to actually do the work 2. We can potentially romance said pool boy. Which would add interesting drama to the game and fun potential consequences. The pool cleaning aspect holds little interest for me as I actually have my own home to clean, and I spend a fair amount of my personal time, outside of my work hours, doing such tedious work. I play this game to get away from that.
But hey why not take my list wrap it all in a Game Pack. We’ll call Sims 4: Tedious Tasking and it’ll feature a new occult The Energy Vampire, Based on the character Colin Robinson from What We Do in the Shadows. He’d be perfect for such a pack
Here is a list of a couple more "fun" things we could add to the pack as a bonus for Pre-order
- Pulling out the Refrigerator and sweeping behind it
- Collecting Lint from the Dryer and keeping it
- Watching the grass grow
- Filing paperwork in a filing cabinet. Once a year they can make a holiday event out of reorganizing the file cabinet
- Getting a colonoscopy and then talking about it at a party
- Collecting nail clippings
