Tiny Living - But

Does anyone else remember the days when things like Murphy Beds just happened to be included in expansion packs for Sims 2 and Sims 3, instead of a stuff pack that revolves around them? Because I certainly do.

This stuff pack is honestly the most cringe worthy thing they've ever announced... and yes, I'm even admitting that it's worse than 'My First Pet'... I NEVER thought the day would come when I say that, but it's true... as awful as MFP is, this one takes the cake as the absolute biggest cash grab in the history of The Sims!

We're literally being charged $10 for a new bed... that's it... and yeah, they could've easily included bunk beds and ladders/spiral staircases in this, but no... they wanna be the greedy company they've always been!

Ironically, if they had included bunk beds in this pack, more people would feel inclined to actually buy it... I would say they made a mistake by this, but I know for a fact that it was done on purpose... they're money hungry!

I really wish Sims fans would STOP buying these cash grabs! We need to tell EA that this is NOT okay!

In the interests of tiny living I would rather have seen different space saving beds. But I guess that would fall under this:

A lot of stuff packs have had more than one game play object.

I feel like this is a cop out.

They already have all sims using a "climb a ladder" animation from the pool ladder and now the island living ladder to the ocean.

Raising the footprint of a bed up + reuse ladder animation + add a "slot" under the bed for another bed to snap into and ta-da, bunk bed.

Modders did this a few years ago (though there was no climbing animation added) and it worked fine. Items were also usable under the top bunk. I feel like this sort of tweet is just an excuse given by the gurus because the ceos don't want to pay for another month of work (if that).

It's definitely a lazy excuse for them to use... especially when stuff packs in the past have given us content that is much BIGGER than bunk beds or sleeping bags!

If a stuff pack can revolve around Bowling Alleys (which is a much more complex theme), then I see absolutely NO reason why they can't include bunk beds or sleeping bags! I've had enough of their stupid excuses!

Right.

There's nothing wrong with being critical and mindful of the media you consume, so I truly don't see the problem with people voicing their opinions on the content that EAxis creates....especially content that people spend their money on.

This. I mean, I know it is just a stuff pack, so you can't expect much really.

For people that like the styling of everything else included, I'm sure the $10 is worth it. It does feel like it's held back a bit from things that could have been Uni (and not just the bed). For me, this is a $10 murphy bed. There were a lot of great suggestions in this thread though, like ladders and bunk beds and pull out beds. This probably could have been a bigger idea and part of a GP or even an EP.

What I'm wondering right now is there is knitted clothing in this pack, plus the knitting pack that's going to come...?

That's exactly what I was thinking when I read the official thread! Like Whaaat?!

Leftovers of a Stuff Pack made into another Stuff Pack. Great. Stuff-Pack-ception :joy: Well, the voted one won't be ... uhm ... let's say not my tasty, anyway :joy:

It wouldn't surprise me. My First Pet Stuff had a lot of recycled assets with different swatches lol

Yes, but that also goes for Hot Tubs, Water Sliders, Butlers, Banquet Tables, Hamsters and so on. This is just their typical business since 2014, I don't know where the surprise is.
