Your Growing Together Rating!
It is time yet again for my favorite question: how would YOU rate Growing Together? Please remember, though, as always: this is supposed to be a helpful thread for those who are still on the fence...

I gave it a 7.
CAS
It’s ok, not the best we’ve had though. Some of the clothes aren’t very versatile. I like that we got things for everyone, but that also means less stuff in each category.
It’s nice to have kids aspirations.
Why are there no new traits though ?
Build/Buy
It’s ok, there are some things I really like and will use a lot like the rugs and the fireplace, the frames, the treehouse…..
- I don’t really get why we got kitchen appliances but no counters, I would have prefered the opposite. I was really hoping we’d get a new family kitchen with this EP, and a big American fridge with double doors and à water dispenser thingy.
- The changing tables should have come with basegame, they even match the basegame stuff so it really feels like they were meant to be in the basegame update.
- The cluster of plants we for it really nice, but why weren’t they separated ?? They would have been way more usable that way.
- The bathroom tiles with the black stripes……would have been way more usable without said stripes.
Gameplay
I’m sad teenagers weren’t included at all, yes they just got an EP, which I have, but not everyone does.
I really enjoy milestones, the compatibility system, family dynamics, sleepovers/slumber parties, stayovers.
I haven’t seen a lot of new interactions between sims though.
I would have liked strollers.
I don’t know if it’s a bug but my sim was always taking her infant out of her carrier, even to do stuff they should be able to do anyway, like walking the dog.
I would like it if sims could play together with their bikes, like do races and things like that.
World
It’s nice but it doesn’t snow in the winter.
It’s quite empty.
I would have liked more lots in the residential neighborhood, especially 40x30, as the treehouse is so big, you need bigger lots to be able to fit it along with a decent sized house.
