The I'm Bored Thread

Another yawn for today. Sorry, I haven't updated this thread much. Had the flu this week. Feel some better now, a little. But while I was able to sit up and see what's new on here, I see another upcoming Yawn pack. Possible Winter Vacation pack, or at least included in some recent survey. Maxis has forgotten a number one rule in business, 'You have to strike the Iron while it's Hot.' I think, Maxis, any winter vacation pack would have been more welcomed before Simmers got snow in Seasons? What did ya think? You know closer to the year OR was released when people were begging for vacation GPs....that's not really what they are waiting on anymore now is it? No, they are still hanging on for dear life to see you improve the Sim personality, and free babies. Anything else is a meh, but you are right they will buy it anyway. But again the reputation of TS4 is just all willy nilly, upside down, through the looking glass sort of strategy. Winter vacation packs probably should have been developed before they already got other sporting fun items, before weather, before you make them own Seasons before they can have snow in a vacation world, you know before you decided to no longer hide how much you don't mind milking. Another WB world? European Alps? again? really? Another OR world covered in snow, again? really? What will be the $10 object to cover the already presented type snow world, repeated, maybe a new fireplace? I wouldn't doubt it. :o Guess you found out how easy it would be to take the scooting animation of the bike in DU and just change the mesh to a snowboard and use the same animation just to skoot the board up a ramp and up or down stairs. Cheap and we know we can rely on them reusing already existing assets such as snow.... is what we can expect for the next five years.

While I'm here I will just mention vacation world problems. Why would we buy another pack where the invited guests still run off and go back home, and or don't stick with the Sim while in that world? The only think that might work correctly in the vacation worlds are the controlled Sims being under the thumb of the player. It's been 5+years and to my knowledge OR still suffers from guests going back home and or being off somewhere else when our Sim tried to find them. I'm going to bet money this is still a problem isn't it? C'mon we know it is.

But hey kids! buy another pack with 'snow' (which you already own in Seasons) and send your Sim on vacation to watch the other Sim leave!! Only $40!
Buy another look alike world of WB or OR or some other world with backdrops removed and replaced (repeat of world types) build a snowpal! pay again for winter activities we didn't bother including in Seasons because we wouldn't have been able to milk you for the winter pack if we had included skis or snowboard etc. Oh, even if we did include any of that in Seasons we made a new one, bigger, different color like we did of that object in one of the packs that you guys bought again (photo shoot thingy) but have forgotten you already had one of those objects.....And don't forget we will soon have that Build A Bar pack sometime in the future. We know how much you guys love repeated assets, animations and repetive gameplay! You really didn't want romance chemistry or slow dance now did you? Or cars? No! you want anothr chance to see snow!
