This community is way too big and divided to please every single person with each content and price tag.
Some say it’s worth it. Some say it’s not. There’s no right or wrong. Should NK have been part of a GP or EP? Some folks believe so, others do not. Do I have complaints about TS4 in general? Well...Don’t get me started. But that’s not the point.
The voting set-up and process for NK was made very clear from the start. Indeed, we also had Laundry Day to learn from. That should have educated us. If that did not educate you, I hope you learned from this one, in case the same voting process will be repeated in the future.
If you are not happy with the format of community polls, perhaps it’s not the kind of thing you should participate in. It’s bound to disappoint you.
Apparently the majority voted for knitting. Knitting won, probably because elders lack gameplay. Do not forget that elder gameplay has been in huge demand alongside liberated babies and kids/teen gameplay. I hope that the people who requested this and voted for NK are delighted with the pack.
Also, I don’t base my decisions on Sim reviews. Because they only take 10 minutes or less to watch. It’s not enough for me to really understand what’s in the pack, without being distracted by someone else’s tone or judgment. I would not be able to hear myself think.
Luckily I have the patience to watch Maxis’ deep dive live-streams. For Stuff Packs they are usually over an hour long. If you get bored watching these live streams, you probably should not buy the pack. At least they give me a much clearer idea about its contents, the gameplay mechanics etc. The gurus will usually clear up any misunderstandings right after on twitter. You don’t need a twitter account for that. You simply read their tweets: https://mobile.twitter.com/i/lists/994711305746501632
If I like what I see and I think the price is right for the way it can enhance my personal gameplay, I may get it. If not, I won’t.
If I did decide to get it, I can’t complain about the stuff that has been covered and explained about during the live stream or in a tweet, because I should have done my research better.
However, letting your decision entirely depend on the judgement of your favourite game reviewer is just as valid. Although you may or may not miss out on something.
