So... interior design GP?

It appears it is going to be a interior design type pack which for me is ok. Personally I wanted high school and just glad it’s not bands. However i build my own lots so I’m not sure if this would suit my gameplay style. I’m not hating on the idea either.

This definitely seems like an interior design career. We don't know yet if that's all it will contain, so I don't want to complain too much yet. But if an interior design career is the only thing coming with the pack, I'll be unhappy. I don't believe this is a theme that should fill up a whole GP, unless it adds greatly to build/buy in general - painting ceilings, spiral staircases, beams etc.
I feel that interior design should be one of two or three careers added in an EP, alongside careers like fashion design and stylist. This isn't just bc I'm thinking of TS3 Ambitions, it's bc an interior design career adds next to no new gameplay - we can build houses already, now sims just get payed when we do it and we get checklists of requirements. It could easily be added to a pack almost as an after-thought. So what are they going to do with it to warrant an entire GP dedicated to it?
This isn't an Eco Living case. It was a bizarre theme for an EP, imo, but it still added quite a number of hobbies and homesteading options. It has more gameplay than Snowy Escape, for example. This pack is only advertised as being a career. Paranormal SP had a career with completely new gameplay in a SP, which has a much smaller budget than a GP.

I'd greatly appreciate love directed at builders in build mode, not just by adding furniture. I'm just very unsure about how it seems like it might be implemented. Quite a few simmers have been asking for a build pack for a few years, so it wouldn't be something no one wanted. Just... :confused:

I would like the career fine if they add hotels and casino’s for us to design and build.

They were inspired by The Sims 3: Ambitions.

If this is anything like Ambitions, then I actually will be extremely hyped.

My fear, however, is that a pack like Ambitions is... well, more ambitious than most of the packs we've seen for TS4. I mean, just look at all the extras in that pack aside from careers and career related objects: child bake sales, motorcycles, trampolines, junkyards, consignment stores, tattoo chairs, music boxes, FIVE new lot types, a dramatic new death type, etc. For better or worse, it's also where laundry showed up.

But yeah, if interior design (or better, yet, an architect career) was bundled with even sculpting and inventing* (and certainly, with those two plus firefighting and investigating), it would be a glorious day.

(I mean, between robotics and crafting, I suppose inventing is fairly well covered, though not exhaustive... but I would definitely love to see junkyards return. And on a related note, one of my favorite TS3 University features was the rabbithole option to pick up free discarded furniture from one of the campus buildings. I really miss that.)

ETA: Although now that I think about it, the fact that they keep using the word "redacted" makes me wonder whether this could be an Ambitions-style pack that also includes an investigator career? But if so, why would they make it sound like it's only one new career? Then again, sometimes the marketing for these packs is not so great and actually kills hype rather than building it.

Apparently it has something to do with that famous phrase that was so commented on. Now if we could try to complete that tweet since they are definitely not fairies.

I wish Get To Work included this terminal-thing TS2's Open For Business had where sims would pay $$ for time spent on your retail lot, this system allowed for cafes and art galleries and SO MUCH MORE :'(

I loved that object so much. It was great for so many things. I used it for movie theaters, dance clubs, beach campgrounds. all kinds of venues.

I choose interior designers. Everyone knows only interior designs can play in the new____ (i can't remember it well and i can't think of anything for the last part ?)

...Why can’t they do things that loads of people have asked for? Are they under pressure to create new ideas? I don’t get it. Sorry I’m just disappointed ☹️

Painted ceilings!!

Drafting tables!!

Sectional sofas!!

Maybe maybe maybe create a style????

The only thing I won't like is if a sim hires me to change a room that I built and I love but the quest to please the client ruins my whole vision for that neighborhood.

Wasn't that tweet in relation to an original comment about which world and lot type you'd use? Maybe new lot types are coming, that you can 'design' as part of the career? Things like the water park mentioned in the old survey?

I wouldn't get my hopes up! This is a GP, the water park/cafes/art galleries were in an EP concept. Remember how hotels were mentioned in the survey's snowy escape concept? :'(
And I feel like if there was something more than Interior Designer, today's teasing would have hinted at it too (plus a SimGuru said "the career in the next GP")
