Eh I wouldn’t say ungrateful at all. The game is going on 5 years and people are asking for a whole lot more than some recolored base game objects. It’s cool they’re doing it, but it’s hardly a solution for their repeated bad swatch choices. These 350 swatches don’t do anything for the DLC they’ve added to the game.

Wouldn’t call it ungrateful. Would call it frustrated. I’ve been playing this series for like 15 years, I’d like to have my voice heard for once.
They aren’t gonna get a ton of praise from me for putting more swatches on stuff while the game BEFORE this one had a color-wheel. Just like if we ever get burglars, I’m not gonna be on the ground praising them when it should’ve been in the base game to begin with. Shouldn’t take you over 5 years to implement basic things.
Now, if they come up with something new and spectacular that hasn’t been in previous games, I’ll be impressed.

Ironically you need a lot of them to fix the broken game. B)

These mods won't break your game, lol. If one stops working or needs to be updated, just take it out and go about your day. I have most of the ones listed and my game runs fine. In fact, I need some of these mods to make the game playable for me.
The point was that some random person in their spare time literally made occults and gave sims more depth. Meanwhile, we're getting teased about swatches. And adding that for the people who play vanilla is great and all, but it's not worth hyping up like this, which is where the disappointment comes from. It would have been better if they just flat out said what it was.
I'm indifferent either way, but I get where the frustration comes from. It's a valid feeling to have.

Fair enough. However, we don’t know what they have planned for future releases, they could be readying a pack that everyone has been screaming out for. Remember that this is only a patch feature, it’s not supposed to add any major additional gameplay like a pack would.

I have been playing since the original and I have watched the franchise grow into what it is today. We are all aware that the system draws certain limitations which is unfortunate, but nothing is going to change that. If you feel that strongly over a burglar being left out of the base game then by all means go off, but I truly believe that the devs have been trying to piece this game back together from the disastrous start back in 2014 and whilst the pace not may suit everyone, at least they are doing the best with what they have. We don’t know what’s next, so just keep a little faith.

"My gawd! These Gurus! How dare they throw hints at us! Are they actually trying to be playful?! Well, Sims 4 is serious bizness! I can't guess that! I want straight info or nothing at all, darnit! These developers shouldn't be having fun, they should only be working, working, working! Don't engage us if you have nothin to say! What?! No communication?! This team is awful!!!11!!"
Lol, guys, if you don't like guessing games, then don't play. Why are you in this thread? I guess sometimes the obvious solution is the hardest to swallow.

This is very sad actually :(
But EA/Maxis are a couple of EPs or years ahead of us so they will know what will or won't work later on, breaking any mods created now.
I'm not using any mods until the game is officially over, or - if I can get the Legacy Game in addition to the ongoing one get them for the former so that I could experiment with them!

You’re right we don’t know what they’re making, but I will no longer give them the benefit of the doubt in that area. Their last pack release was so wildly uncharacteristic for the series and not even in a good way, that who knows what crazy stuff they have in the works?
Patch content is usually more than some recolors. Just saying, they’ve added or expanded gameplay thru patches many times. It’s cool they are doing it, and I’m excited to see what they chose to recolor, but these 350 swatches are relatively simple to produce and really don’t do much for the game besides give you some new colors. Wouldn’t be an issue at all if they had included modern features like a color wheel.
