Bring back the stuff packs

Loved stuff packs they were a great way to get unique items and game play that did not fit into an expansion theme. Now we just get kits with a few outfits or small number of objects that hardly even covers the theme they are attempting never worth what they are asking for I can get better cc.

This may be morbid but I would like a Graveyard stuffpack or a Reaper SP. Something that officially adds graveyards back into the game, a rabbit hole mausoleum like from TS3, and to add in a grim reaper career, like suggested from that 2020 poll. Right now I have a cc lot trait to make a graveyard, but it's not the same.

I have a feeling that stuff packs were phased out because EA messed up its own categorization scheme for the packs. There was no longer a distinction between stuff packs and gameplay packs. That's probably why there was only a single gameplay kit and then never again.

Unfortunately, that is so true. When the last Stuff Pack Paranormal came out, it was actually a Gameplay Pack.
And when Dream Interior Decorating Gameplay Pack came out, it was actually a Stuff Pack.
I've always suspected that the game developing teams for Gameplay Packs & Stuff Packs got redirected to each other jobs.
Also, when the Wedding Gameplay Pack was released it wasn't any game developer teams.
I feel so sorry for all those people & hope that they get treated better.

I agree with so many here. Decisions around development have gone downhill in recent years. I remember when I owned EVERY single add-on, and would pre-order new releases without question. But with kits, the “wow” factor and value just isn’t there. I own maybe 3 kits :( But if they still released stuff packs, I bet I would own every single one!

Do you have a source for this or is it just an educated guess?

Same here

It would make sense to me that they would make a stuff pack for the infant life stage since we had one for the toddler life stage. I'm wondering with all the cars hints if cars could come in a stuff pack ?. They are also hinting at fairies which will likely be a GP. Horses have been hinted at which could be GP or EP. Where do cars fit in?

Hi guys
I completely agree with you! Stuff packs are often underrated but they can provide some fantastic additions to enhance our builds. I particularly love how the Mansion & Garden Stuff pack in The Sims 2 adds that essential touch of elegance, making it perfect for creating stunning Second Empire Victorian homes.

That was one of my all-time faves.
