The truth about Island Living

So... remember that random free update we got that included Carribian themed items, hair, clothes, a sliding door and ceiling fan? Lol. Guess where it came from? Island Living. So it’s clear to me that the Island Living expansion was originally supposed to be a Caribbean world with lots of Jamaican food and clothes, items, etc. Think about it. City Living had a ton of Asian influences, Jungle Adventure showed love to Hispanics. But at some point, they tossed that idea and decided to make it a general Island theme (Edit: I stand corrected A Polynesian world). Hmmmm... wonder why? But they had a lot of the clothes and stuff already done so they decided to spin it and toss it in the base game. I see you Maxis. Smh. The world looks amazing, though. I’m definitely getting this pack but a little disappointed they didn’t go with a full Caribbean expansion. *shrug*

    Not sure if I totally agree with this, I think the expansion of caribbean or african styles have more to do with a larger player base with different backgrounds who play this game and providing more options for them to create sims. The base game was pretty lacking in those terms.

    Hi everyone,

    Moving this thread to the Speculation section and locking it here before the conversation escalates more than it has already. Feel free to open another topic with a more descriptive title and in the appropriate section to discuss this in a more constructive way.
