Excellent point. EA can not think outside the box. All about the money."@agustd;c-16220053" wrote:
Laziness with making animations again, I assume.
No logical reason why children wouldn't be able to walk dogs.
I think it’s just an oversight. There’s no animations needed to add this for Kids.
There was a gif of a Child walking the dog on Twitter by The Sims team.
I assume it was planned but forgotten more than a case of “laziness” or “can’t do”.
It happens I guess.
Please find this gif. I haven’t seen it, and I even looked for it. You’ve brought it up more than once so please share what you’re talking about. I find it incredibly hard to believe they made kids able to walk dogs, but forgot about including it and not fixing that ASAP. It’s more likely a case of laziness, and a bad company vision mixed with budget constraints.
Go through the Sims Twitter. You can toggle via media. I have bad internet and it would take me hours to load them all. All that was missing was a leash. So a small FX leash can’t be that hard to add.
“Bad company vision” and budget don’t really come into it. It’s like how EA let adults build Sandcastles in TS3 but Toddlers can’t do anything. Which is really weird. The adult animations are also Toddler like and it’s creepy.
It just happens. It’s probably just a simple oversight. Straight and simple.
I doubt they said “on no we don’t WANT kids to walk dogs” or “we can’t afford it”. All the tech is there.
