    A stuff pack wasn't announced in "Rise & Shine" roadmap, IKEA won't match to this theme.
    Not until the next and last roadmap of 2022 for The Sims 4, OK?

    "The "rumoured" release date is mid-September." seems to be before the next roadmap.
    Good! 2022 will never be worst

    Survey 2020 had the Shopping Mall idea
    Shopping Malls

    All your retail needs under one roof.
    Hang out, find deals, and discover that perfect outfit for the night ahead in full retail experience, mall cop included.


    Then we better get mall cops on Segways.

    And those little cars for kids to ride on at the mall.

    The shopping mall sounds like it'd be good in theory, but boring in execution when you consider how The Sims 4 operates.
    They haven't done retail right. They haven't done festivals right since City Living. You can already buy things in various different ways. Deals mean nothing when your sims make tons of money. Hanging out means nothing because there's not a whole lot your sims can to together besides hanging out. You can make your own mall and hang out right now, and shop there if you have Get to Work.

    I read that description and thought, "This sounds like our sims will just sit at places, buy things, and maybe pull some basic pranks so the mall cop might send you to mall jail for a couple of hours." Basically stuff we can already do, with a bit of the detention mechanic from High School Years. (Except the jail might be a rabbithole time-out.) I guess it could be a nice little immersion thing, but there'd be so little unique gameplay to this.

    Personally I can’t imaging shopping malls being all that interesting. Based on the poll I suspect it may have been a potential idea for the High School pack (along with the Fan Clubs, another idea from the same poll) but was eventually dropped in favour of other ideas like the carnival pier and the boba tea/ thrift hangout.

    I’d love a shopping mall lot, I already have 3 in my main save. One I made and 2 I down loaded and changed around a bit.

    Don't know what the tweet says as the persons now suspended, but I suppose that boosts the likelihood of it being true as they probably wouldn't suspend someone if there was no reality in the "leak"

    OK y'all! This'll be the last straw, if stuff pack(s) with CAS clothes and build/buy things can't come back at 2022, 2022 is gonna be worst with more kits

    Here's my unhappy thanks to @LeGardePourpre for saying that 2 kits are planned this year! 2022 is about to be the worst year in my life without stuff packs for 2022 during in-development of The Sims 4! GAH!!

    @12JEREMIA

    There are still November, December and big announcements, it's not over yet.
    So you're saying that stuff pack 19 can't come back?

    If there is an in game IKEA store my Sim would need to arrive back home with five or six clutter items that she didn't know she needed until visiting the store.

    And she would have to spend an hour on Simtube to find out how to fix that one shelf she put in backwards on the Billy bookshelf(low handiness skill I quess) and then travel to the in game paint store to get the exact shade of paint to cover it up.

    lmao, sounds like me irl putting the wrong screws in and not understanding why one metal bar didn't fit, go to the store and get 3 different staff members to help.

    I already have several shopping malls in my game. They work fine. Even if a pack would add better organizing, I would not bother to rebuild them. But, if we get such a pack, the main feature would probably be the possibility to add sub categories per room, which would come in handy in other lots too, not just malls. It could actually be used for hotels, office complexes, perhaps even allow us to build apartments.

    A shopping mall would be too big for a stuffpack.

    What I want is real malls with escalators,multiple stories,elevators and fountains. We to date don't have that but Freeplay does.

    OK! Y'all know what? I don't think I don't wanna hear another word about stuff pack anymore, y'all! 2022 has now become the worst year in my life with no stuff packs being release during this year. Can any moderators lock this thread, this conversation about stuff pack for 2022 is over
