I think the items look great and it's cool that the community got this much involved. And free gifts are always great, too. Almost always. Because I already have most packs + tons of CC, I don't really see I'll use most of these 21 items. The flowers might be the only item I'd grab because I love flowers. What I do need is free hard drive space for my game to run close-to-smoothly. I've been edging the lag limits for a while, knowing just a few more MB will have a negative impact.
So, it feels a bit forced that CC content is now added to my game without asking me if I'm fine with that. And it's not the first time. Is there no way to refrain from adding this set? If I come across great looking "all or nothing" sets on CC sites where I quickly see that I'd use very few of the items, I'll pass. My in game catalogs are steep full, and I'm trying to reserve what's left of my free hard drive space for a final future must have pack. So, yeah... this feels a bit like filling my game with a pack I never would have grabbed myself - free or not. Almost like surprising us with a free "My First Pet vol 2" that everyone *must have* whether they like or not.
I miss the TS3 era with a store. Free stuff would be available in the store, and we could grab what we wanted. I don't like the turn TS4 took ages ago, adding content through patches, meaning you can not decide for yourself. We can not choose not to add patches, I wish they were separate installments. I know it's only 21 items this time, but it's a bitter sweet gift if free items that you never actually use will slow down your game.
Again - cudos to the creators, who did very well! It's not their fault I already have "200 dining tables" and that I use only 3 of the 60 lipsticks available in the game (no CC). Happy for everyone who get new stuff that they will use often, CC is fun :) .
