What exactly is 'Generations'?
I keep seeing people post about wanting generations and that it's being hinted at in a future pack, but no one is explaining what it is. Anyone want to tell me?

If you wanted to only send them between the fridge, bathroom, and bed - okay. If you wanted them to actually do something that involved moving more than 10 squares... take a week off.

Yup, canes were insanely bad. I was dead set on roleplaying, but I had to give the canes up after a few days, because it just made them SO SLOW. In general I think Generations are a rather overhyped expansion pack. It's not bad, all the ideas are cute, but so many of them just didn't really influence the gameplay. And boarding schools sound cool in theory, but in practice it just meant having your kids leave and age without getting to play them.
The prom was rabbit hole-y but cute. The graduation was just annoying.
