What if that was just a literal translation? It possibly means something else. Look at Parenthood. In French it's "être parents". If translated literally, it say "be parents." Was that the English title for it? No.....
~I just like lifestates. Is that too much to ask for?~
Ummm...a bit sad if that is your only goal in the forums
Where did I say it is ? It's just something I like to do :P And I don't have any goals on the forums, they're mostly just a place for people to be dramatic about everything so don't take anything I say too seriously
Not only is this post annoying because you are only asking for attention, but also that your entire point is based off of one listing on an obscure Norwegian store website. There was no justified reason to attack The Sims team for this. Even if the pack was only going to be "cats & dogs," I wouldn't trust the announcement from anyone but EA. If you people are really that unhappy with the Sims 4, stop complaining about it and go back to Sims 3 and stop ruining the party for the rest of us.
I've never paid full price for an EP, I just wait for sales to come around. Sims 4 sales come around too often for me to buy an EP at $40. I even waited Christmas 2016 to buy TS4 for $20 at target!
Honestly, I would be fine with just cats,dogs, and small animals. However, I would like them to be very immersive and not just thrown in like everything else. I hope they don't make puppies and kittens objects like babies.
I'm pretty sure that there won't be any small pets in "Cats and Dogs". Vampires were named "vampires" for a reason. They were not "supernatural", they were just "vampires". Naming a pack "Cats and dogs" implies that it's not "pets", it's just cats and dogs.
I'm personally really disappointed and probably won't be buying this pack. I was hoping for a lot of small fluffy animals such as bunnys, hamsters, rats, etc. Paying 40 dollars for 2 animals (no matter how detailed they might be) just doesn't appeal to me.
I'm not interested in pet careers when they go into a rabbit hole and disappear for a day. How many of you have pets that have a job? Be honest?
I'm also not interested in playing as a pet. It's just weird for me. And I'm afraid that because we're only getting cats and dogs, the pack's main focus will be being a pet instead of having a pet.
With that being said, I will only like "pet shows" if they are shown from the sims perspective instead of from the animal perspective.
Some things that I could like if they were in the pack would be veterinarian career, pet stores and pet shelters.
PS: I actually have had a feeling for a long time that we might only get cats and dogs. But I thought that in that case it surely has to be a GP and not an EP. And if it's an EP it must surely be combined with weather and be named "Raining cats and dogs" EP. Turns out I was only half wrong.
PSps: They really lost an opportunity with "raining cats and dogs" here.
My family has a working sheepdog. I also have a puppy training to become a guide dog. That being said I completely understand your post and I agree with every word.
40 dollars ain't worth as much now as it was 11 years ago
You know what else isn't the same as it was 11 years ago? Technology. For $40 we should be getting the same amount of content, if not more this day in age. There is simply no excuse.

I remember some codes were found for horses some time ago, but that didn't really go anywhere. I already had a feeling that Pets for the Sims 4 isn't gonna have horses. Personally, I never really cared much about horses, I like the cats and dogs more.
BUT...we are essentially getting less compared to the Sims 3 Pets. I hope they really flesh them out to try and compensate.

We don't know if we're getting less though. That's the thing that gets me. We have no clue on what's in this pack. The only thing we can be assure of right now is that cats and dogs will be the core feature and possibly the release date. Other than those two things, there's nothing suggesting well be getting anymore or any less that Pets EPs we've received in the past with the exception of horses.

Omg someone with actual logic and way of seeing things instead of just saying 'Wait till we actually get the pack'?? THIS FORUM HAS HOPE AGAIN

What ? It's obvious from the title alone that this pack will have no compelling gameplay at all. No new CAS items either. In fact, the only new items are the cats and dogs. Yes, I said items. They're cardboard cutouts you can place in your Sims' homes to create the illusion of having at least someone who cares about you while you open up the next bottle of nectar. For 40$.
Please, educate yourself before you post something on here. Just because Alexandrea can see the bigger picture and you don't doesn't mean you have to attack her like this.
Is this sarcasm or are you for real? Because I recall you loving every pack that comes out or at least *MOST*
Hmmm... I don't understand you... The Sims is like this from the beginning...
A partial game @ $60 and $40 more for a little more of gameplay. 17 years later it should not surprise you.
Noo..it was never $40 for dogs & cats....it was $40 for dogs & cats, many other pets, pet stores, jobs, vets, etc...
Not in the pc version of Sims 2 and 3 was there ever a vets career. Sims 1 on the otherhand did have dog pet shows, shops, all kinds of pet care NPCs and dog walkers, and groomers shops though. Our sims could not work at them or anything. Some of those would be fun to have back.
Only Sims 2 had pets with jobs. Sims 3 pets were actually Sims but they had no jobs - and you did get a pet store. just you could not buy pets at the pets store in Sims 3.
