@stilljustme2 @Anmirla You both make some very good points. And the problem with an almost exclusive use of Twitter is right there. They want to poll the community but the polling feature is limited so they have to make accommodations when that in itself can skew the results. At the very least, they could poll from an external site and link it to the Twitter feed. I would love to see it redone and then eliminate the top result and do it again, just to see how the results shift around. Because there are many of us who want more than one very badly and it's true...making us choose only our top wish is unfair. I want both Witches and Werewolves very badly, but you know what else I really want? Elves. I want more Mythology in the game. And honestly, if Mermaids were done with the options I like, and we could have them be creepy as well as beautiful with siren songs and such...I would love those too.
It's not right that they kind of have the Occult lovers pitting against each other for their prefered Life State. In the end, I want all of them in my game. As much as they can stuff into it. And I want Superheroes on top of that, and cool new Robots and Androids on top of that. I want to fully support my fellow Myth and Magic and Horror lovers, not elbow them aside so I can shout out my personal preference. I already feel bad for the PlantSim lovers who got totally gimped on their preference, even though I don't really use them myself.
Development seems to take way longer with Sims 4 than it did in the past, and I'm sure that's part of the reason we're all stuck begging for the things we want next, and it's even more complicated when you add in the realistic players who still don't have any kind of University or School system, and then the ones who want swimming and beaches and more activities and farming. I mean, yeah, I want those things too, and most are pretty much a given in a Sims game, but it's going to take up yet more development resources. Plus, they're trying to put in disabilities for the future? How many packs do we feasibly have left in Sims 4's life span? If we start getting two EPs a year now instead of Stuff and Game Packs, maybe we could have all of those things. They seem to have the team united now, or at least they did for Get Famous because both Ninja and Graham were on that project and they are the lead producers for those packs. I personally think it's a good thing and I hope they continue this way because Get Famous, even though it wasn't at all on my wish list, has a lot to it like an EP should, but it also has that special focused feel of Game Packs as well as the fun of Stuff Packs.
A few months ago, Grant said we were getting "All the Things". I really hope that's true.
