Does anyone wish the sofas were more comfortable looking or is it just me? I like the modularity and they look nice but in an airport lounge kind of way, especially the one that looks like the yellow plastic chair we already have in game. For home use I imagine they would be plushier, with some pillows and stuff.

So we have 2 rather nice sofas in my house, and a 3rd that was about $100 at IKEA and folds down flat.

One of these is a pricey leather affair with soft cushions and all that comfort stuff. The IKEA one looks like it was made in a Soviet factory. The last sofa was mid-range and super firm.

In terms of comfort scores, if they were sims sofas, I'd give the soft leather one a 1 or the discomfort rating. I'd give the 'Soviet IKEA fold out' a 4, and the mid range one, from CB2, looks like it was made at IKEA and seriously resembles those images (it honestly looks like the designer shops at the same CB2 I did a few years ago) and is very 'tensile firm' I'd give a 5.

Soft is nice for about 3 minutes and then your back hurts and your butt gets sore. The firm 'military looking' sofas hold you in place, support your back, and after an hour or two on them your butt feels the same way it did when you sat down.


In a more complex game each sim would need a preference for soft or firm and comfort of sofas would be relative to that preference... ;)

They could be comfortable, but they don't look like they are. The one with the back on a right angle wouldn't be able to support your back, and the other one just looks like it's made of concrete. I think some cushions would have made them look both more comfortable and homey.

This reminds me of the Progressive insurance commercial where the guy says you don't need a sofa full of pillows like your parents had. ?
