I am sorry, but this idea for a new stuff pack is just plain boring and a complete waste of time, money and effort. Why do you not give use some new interactive careers, hobbies and activities for our sims to do. Ok the bowling stuff and vampires or ok, but they are from TS3, what we need is new, bright and refreshing idea's. Not all this echo plum, in fact if you want most of this stuff you find on the net just about anywhere, so why waste, time, money and effort on this stuff.

From what I have seen so far from the development of this game, it would appear that the development time are trying to reinvent The Sims and that they have no imagination and can not come up with anything new, that would be worth the money, after all vampires, can not be doing to good if EA, are offering it at a 25% discount. So come on get your heads out of the clouds and start using your imagination and stop trying to reinvent the game.

But if you want to bring back stuff from the previous games, then why do you not bring back some of the interactive careers we had in TS3,, I.e. the P.i, Interior decorator, the self employed inventor, I used to love going to the junkyard and rummaging through the junk piles and then blowing them up with cherry bombs, as well as my other favorites the Ghost hunter and the Firefighter, also you could have community lots like a garage/vehicle workshop, or even something on the lines of the arts and craft centre that we had in TS3, so we can do things like glass blowing, jewelry making, pottery making and what about more sporting activities, like rock climbing, archery ranges and hobbies/activities like pool/snooker/billiards tables or even a ping pong ball table, also you could bring back some of the career rewards from TS2, like the pharmaceutical machine, the lie detector, as well as some of the career objects from TS3, like the university objects, the science station, the brain machine, the list is endless all you need is a bit of imagination.

You could also develop the Alien, side of the game more, I.e, gives use the ability to design, build and live on lots on the Alien home world. Where Sims could take their erith careers, like the Doctor, Scientist and Detective and use them on the Alien world, again just use your imagination.

I love the idea of a jewelry making or pottery making or glass blowing station. Jewelry making or pottery making might go well with the theme of this stuff pack. It could be patterned after the woodworking machine. The jewelry making station would unlock CAS jewelry. The pottery making station could create all kinds of decorative sculptures, dishes, vases, etc. A modder (pbox) had this idea with the lump of clay, but that mod broke in a patch some time ago, and hasn't been repaired.

I miss the Junkyard from TS3 too, but that was in a whole EP, as were additional careers.

I would also love to see additional community lots, new rooms, and new residential lots with this stuff pack.
