Sims Businesses and Hobbies Expansion Pack Negative thread.
Welcome to the first negative thread of the year.
This is the place to post any criticism and concerns for the new pack. As usual, don't attack the Sims team or each other.

So we're doing paid pack refreshes now. While I LOVE what we're getting, there was no reason the "Small business" system couldn't be part of a Get To Work refresh, honestly. Still no cashier. Oh and two new hobbies. Two??????????????? For a whole EP with the "Hobbies" name in it????? Come on.
For the complete experience, please buy all Sims 4 packs with your preferred hobbies.
No "personality" system either that randomly assigns a "preferred" hobby to a Sim, sadly. It's all pretend (although the blog post seems to mention "Mastery Perks", we'll see)
It all screams lazy since they're mostly reusing already existing features (body painting from Cats&Dogs, assigning different purposes for the rooms on a lot from For Rent, "Business activities" and "Target Customers" from Get Together kind of, I hope classes aren't straight up taken from High School Years).
Also no burglars or alien "refresh" after all this burglars and aliens teasing, it's my own fault for expecting something but yeah haha, criminality is a hobby too!
"Oh and two new hobbies. Two??????????????? For a whole EP with the "Hobbies" name in it????? Come on."
We should be thankful. If one hobby could be called "hobbies" they would have only put one new hobby in the pack.
I don’t want a system that assigns preferred hobbies to my sims. You can already pick what hobbies you prefer ( I can’t remember if that was basegame update or came with a pack ), but it is called likes and dislikes. As long as they keep likes and dislikes updated I’m good with that. My sims have personalities I assign them. I like it that way.
