Is it just me... or did they still not address the absence of stuff packs in this last summit?

Well Stuff packs really got better and better as time went on and the last one, Paranormal stuff, is one of the best liked packs of the entire catalogue of packs, so it's not surprising people want them back.

I LOVE Paranormal Stuff! It's pretty much a game pack for half the price! Worth every penny.

I don't think stuff packs, but I think they have a new focus.I think stuff packs are now only focose on mini pack ideas.Why kits are focose on small stuff.

I personally think what it comes down to is the last stuff pack they did had so much content and new activities/programming that it was almost to the level of a game pack, and perhaps they feel they can't keep up with that level of a stuff pack (sends the wrong expectation), so they moved on to more kits instead. I could be completely wrong, but to me it makes sense since stuff packs were getting better and better for the small price tag and then they just stopped.

I feel like they just really wanted to explore microtransactions, & split up the amount of content. But I like your point, it was a lot of stuff plus the added Game Packs. Seems to me like Game Packs are probably a better replacement for the current time being. I'd like Kits if they had kept what they had going with Bust the Dust. Unfortunately they ruined that one with the glitches.

I think its already pretty obvious SPs are gone and replaced with kits...

i'm disappointed by the lack of stuff packs. sure some of them were trash but there have been some great additions over the years. tiny living is my favorite and there are a few others, like nifty knitting, that i use regularly. i really enjoy the kits i have (pastel pop, incheon arrivals, and blooming rooms) but they don't compare to a well-made stuff pack.

Yeah, I saw people complaining about them too on the forums. But, there is always someone complaining about something. I have always loved stuff packs, even the more simple ones. You get a little bit of everything with stuff packs. I love expansions and game packs too, but stuff packs coming often always kept me interested in the game. I’m afraid that kits just don’t do the same thing for me. I like kits, but I’m really sad that kits seem to have replaced stuff packs.

I'm ok with no stuff packs. But I want more game pack refreshes. After spa day being refreshed, I was so excited for Outdoor Retreat. Still waiting on that!

I think there is only one stuff pack left to be released, that's why they don't release as much. If I remember correctly stuff packs stopped at code SP18 and then got replaced by Kits but started at SP20. So there is a long lost stuff pack SP19 somewhere. :D
