I'm so glad they didn't wait 20 whole days before giving a definite answer.
This is still extremely disappointing though.

I am excited for this pack but I have to say, if their goal is for the game to be perceived as a very casual and simplistic game, they are heading in the right direction.

As others have said, they kept saying that "cats and dogs" was the best version of pets so far, yet they took away so many options for them. I am not even talking about the fact that there are two new types of pets only. But about the fact that they decided pets would never be controllable, would not have any info pannel... etc. Personnaly I never controlled my pets in TS2 and TS3, and it worked perfectly. It also worked perfectly for those who did control them. So I fail to see how keeping only one option out of those two was the best decision ever.

Maybe this iteration of Seasons will indeed be impressive on other aspects. But in my opinion that doesn't make up for the fact that there is no visually believable snow in the game.
As the fourth iteration, any improvement (foliage maybe changing more gradually, new gameplay brought by the thermostat system...) should have been ADDED to the important features that were there in the older games. Not replaced them.

I will buy the EP because it does seem interesting but I think my perception of the game and the esteem I had for it will never be the same after this iteration.

Sims 3 is the only pets that had a controllable feature. Sims 1 and 2 pets were not controllable any more than Sims 4 pets. As only Sims 3 pets were actually sims.

Ok, I never paid a lot of attention to it since I didn't control them. Did pets have an info pannel in Sims 2 ? Can't remember either.
In any case, my point stands.
