This pack sounds ALMOST as bad as the (Sims3) Katy Perry Sweet Treats! Only good thing about Sweet Treats was that it was a stand alone pack!
EDIT: I'm seriously considering about passing on this pack!
Not technically on the Katy Perry Pack - it was costumes (from Katy Perry's California Girl Tour) mainly useful in the singing career of the Showtime EP. So it was technically an sp for an ep also - even though the argument can be made you did not NEED the ep to use it - I have to question that opinion seeing as regular clothes it looked ridiculous but did look good as show costumes. I owned it and the only time I used it outside of the pool lot and ice cream lot was for the shows my Katy Perry Sim put on stage in Sims 3. (Keep in mind this pack was 20 dollars).
As for the small furry pets pack we just got - I like it. Helps me make a cheery looking happy place for fun families and their pets. I also could see some of the furniture as looking cute in a child/toddler related restaurant, play house, or even a nursery school... which are just ideas I have. I am particularly fond of the Pygmy Hedgehog and the Void Creature and look forward to having these additions to my game.
But is it worth it: well that is question only you can decide. To me, yes.
LOL, no, indeed you didn’t. I’ve never heard anyone stating back then “darn, that simply should have been in Showtime, it’s a disgrace it’s not in there.” :D On top of that they made us pay €10 extra for Katy Perry, which was ridiculous (but hey, we got a poster!). But I honestly think it was the worst sold pack in the entire franchise and people who didn’t buy it didn’t miss anything with respect to the Showtime experience. There’s quite some stuff in there you can perfectly well use without playing a performer by the way. In fact I have.And no the only way to get authentic copies of Katy Perrys own show clothing and stage decor was to buy the Katy Perry stuff pack
That’s because it was called the Katy Perry pack wasn’t it?
I have a feeling you don’t really understand what people are complaining about. It’s not because a stuff pack has items that fit an EP, it’s because the stuff pack has items that should have been in that EP. You need the EP to be able to use some of the content (the pet suits) and it contains stuff people were openly missing long before they announced this SP. People were disappointed they only got cats and dogs.
But Katy Perry worked with the Sims team specifically to make that pack for her stage shows from the Dream Girl tour is what I am getting at -

Keep in mind I was a tester for the KP Showtime ep for EA. I am not just guessing or assuming anything. KP also made numerous videos and even commercials promoting the additional pack and showed video of stuff from that pack from her shows on tv etc. So working with EA she meant that pack for Showtime. There is even video out there of KP working with the Sims teams to get everything right from her shows.
But anyway, that was then and this is now. I don't have a problem with the sp and am glad it expanded the ep - which could not have given us that content seeing they went with the pets career - which I also like. It's my opinion to have no problem with it - just as it is your opinion to have a problem. That is fine for both of us - and you are as much entitled to your opinion as I am mine.
