Dream Big, Build Small with The Sims 4 Tiny Living

The thread wasn't particularly acrimonious or negative that I saw. As for murphy beds "clearly" having been meant for DU, I've never heard of university housing of any kind having murphy beds. In fact the only time I've seen them in the wild, so to speak, is in older city apartments and not for many years. I highly doubt they've been holding on to this one object since City Living.

Just yesterday I saw someone wishing for more one-tile desks to save space.

I think my parents had a murphy bed at one point...in the 60s. I've never actually seen one, so I'm not sure why everyone thinks it should have been in the DU pack. As you note, it would probably only be in older apartments in the city (again, like the one my parents had).

But I really have to laugh - where are all the people who have been screaming for murphy beds? It seems like every thread is filled with people who simply want to complain. If they wanted a murphy bed, $10 is too expensive (????seriously???). Or it's not bunk beds, or cars, or spiral stairs, or whatever they personally wanted, so the company is obviously taking advantage of us. Everything should be free, since Maxis is a charity, not a corporation that is supposed to make money and pay its employees.

Murphy beds aren't my thing, and I agree that spiral stairs or ladders would make sense in this pack, considering that stairs take up so much space. And it would be nice to get some sized-down versions of the oversized microscope and telescope. (One issue with making a regular-sized microscope or telescope is that they would require entirely new animations. So do spiral stairs and ladders. Bunk beds not only require animations, but the ability to place two Sims in the same vertical space, and I would guess that this is the hang-up.)

That said, I'd pre-order the pack if you could pre-order stuff packs - if nothing else, I think it would be fun to build a tiny home, and some of the items and CAS are appealing. I only hope we'll get some new clothes for kids and tots.
