If you got 10 new couches and you sit on them with the same sit animation what do you have? no added fun. Now if you get new couches/sofas we want new couch animation. Correct?
No, not necessarily. I’ve always liked getting new couches or beds, because I liked building different kinds of houses. I didn’t mind sims used the very same animation to step into that bed though, because sitting on a couch and sleeping in a bed are daily routine things. It’s different when the barbecue comes in. Sure it’s nice to have a few barbecues to choose from, but it’s not a daily routine to use the barbecue. And that’s where the feeling they’re just selling me easy stuff comes in. Also because the design of a barbecue really doesn’t matter as much as a sofa. A barbecue at the end of the day is mainly a utensil where a sofa or a bed - apart from that - are also used for decoration. Even a stove can do with more varieties because it’s part of a kitchen interior. And you will also always need them, in every single household you create. A barbecue not so much. The barbecue just stands there in the garden. I like having a few different barbecues but I don’t need twenty.
The charm of new ‘same’ content is looks only. I don’t think many people will deny they like new decoration. But to sell it as brand new stuff (especially when it’s just a recolour, which is an extra slap in the face for those who miss CASt) is something else.
(totally agree with both writin_reg and bejawa there concerning cheap/expensive furniture!!)
