what?
the only feedback met was skintones and because of the whole black lives matter movement, let's be honest here. and all those apologize letters by devs were done due to the amount of backlash from the latest packs.
it doesn't matter if it was a fan who had the sparkd idea, it's not what the game needs right now. devs should know the sims priorities, and i can assure you that a fake dramatic tv show was not needed at all.
there's a thing called popular requests, which are a thing because they're features that were previously made in past sims games and because they're basic content to have in a life simulator videogame. sparkd show is not a basic content for a life simulator. making such show is basically making a circus out of the game, especially as poorly done as it was.
besides, it did not need to spare so much money in such a meaningless way, especially when devs sometimes complain about the lack of budget.
though, i don't understand what you meant with your comment? my point still stands. we don't know for sure who makes these decisions inside the department but whoever they are i'm just begging for them to not take part in the sims 5, be it ea, maxis, a fan, or the president, unless it's a professional developer just please stay out of the sims 5 development PLEASE. allow us to have another amazing sims game.
Toddler feedback and basement and pool and ghost feedback was met too. We got firefighters this year too and some other NPC. We got terrain tool too.
Anyways in the middle of writing this:
There is a lot of misinformation spread about this pack:
Only made for younger Simmers, clearly it wasn't as shown with this forum poll.

For those that said no one asked for it, they did ask for a more modern and trendy take on the middle east which they did with the Star Wars pack and this idea was supported by many against the very idea they supported here:

On forums some did ask for a Star Wars expansion pack back in 2015 too.
We also had community surveys and two community stuff packs so far too. One of the surveys done was what brands would we like represented in the Sims 4.

There was also an independent poll and 2.5K people did pick Star Wars as a pack theme:

Star Wars pack does have rabbit hole hotels, so two opposites I guess won and lost the poll. LOL
