I’m curious why the big thread on this new pack was merged with another thread and the new merged thread is now closed...

Yeah I noticed that too. I don't get it.

I hope at least that they can patch in split levels by the time this pack launches, because tiny homes and tiny apartments usually have them to save space....

I am more excited for this pack, than the arts & crafts one that will come later.

I miss spiral staircases from TS3, and ladders would have been nice. I kinda miss bunkbeds, but I only want them if the devs make them better than they were in TS3, were sims would climb up/down on the side that was placed against the wall.

I know they most likely have different teams working on different packs, but releasing this after Discover University makes it feel like they took the Murphy Bed and made a separate pack for it. I would probably have waited to release this, especially if ladders or spiral staircases are under development.

Idk I thought they reformulated their way of making packs. Didn't they say they were just one whole team now, and would work on content and packs together, instead of having separate teams?

Another MFP stuff case. Though the Murphy bed doesn’t have the same style as University build/buy.

Totally bummed there's not bunk beds, or an oven combined with a microwave, washing machine/dryer that fits under the counter, sofa bed...

I don't think it's all just about tiny and multi-function stuff though, it looks like a build challenge to get a functioning house within a certain tile limit? Or am I watching the trailer wrong?

I love tiny houses for my sims, but I don't see why the Murphy bed seems to be the only new object? Not sure many of my sims will use that bed, I'd much prefer bunk beds. Won't mind the new 1 tile desk, but hoping for more smaller versions of stuff we already got, or something new and practical for smaller homes. I don't need lots of same furniture just in new colors to build a small home, I already have many homes smaller than 100 floor tiles. Can't wait to see what more the pack offers though, was hoping for ladders, but I can't see any. I think they could easily have put more tiny-space items into this pack to make it more useful. I hardly use lot traits like easier talking or learning etc, because I dislike the floating icons that are a pain when telling stories or making films. Wondering if the "better relations" lot tag will come with hefty icons or not.

Guess I sound negative, but my first thought when seeing this pack was - Yes, cool! So, I'm basically excited to learn more. :)

Aha, thanks - I wondered why I have no strong feelings about the Murphy bed, as I played all 4 sims series. But I never got the TS2 apartment pack. Agree that sofa bed would be very cool in tiny homes, I used to have a bed like that in my teen room "hundred years" ago :)
