Is this the start of Story Progression?
My sim just got these messages, guessing they're one of the new Eco Lifestyle messages but I thought it was interesting, I've never seen anything centered around story progression for other families b...

@fruitsbasket101 oh nooooo. I might have to buy the pack just for the phonecalls. Why?! :(
Non-pack related story progression should be core to the base game. Always. It’s absurd that a player would have to buy an entire theme pack for that. I hope these phone calls will be patched into BG in the future.
I have the pack and agree, it should be base game.
However, the asked a lot about story progression stuff in that recent poll and it'd have been too soon for them to create that yet, maybe this was just a little addition almost like a test before implementing it for everyone? Maybe they'll roll out a bigger update next year or the one after or something with proper story progression for everyone (and a toggle off for people who don't want it) (Hopefully not just wishful thinking haha)
It may be a test. But then it should be tested with the wider audience in order to get more substantial feedback.
If the audience doesn't like it, it's just as easy to take it out.
I didn't mean a test as to whether we like it, the survey would have told them that, more a test to see if it works without bugs/glitches, which is better rolled out small first. But I do agree, Story Progression shouldn't be tied to a pack. That being said, I want it. If enough people don't want it and it can't be turned on and off maybe a pack would be better for them? Right now with the phone calls it seems optional, just answer no, but maybe future versions won't be? So a bit torn that way... If a real version ever comes in to play and IS tied to a pack though, I think it should be a generations style pack where it would make more sense.
