Community Voted Stuff Pack 3: What simmers want, and when?
Return to top
Comments
I feel the same. Edible art would be there and gone. It's why I don't get excited about new foods in the game. It's fun to look at for about 2 minutes and that's it. Glassblowing could have been interesting but it wasn't something I desperately wanted, and I had a feeling that we'd just end up with yet another giant item that doesn't fit in with a regular household!
The knitting skill is actually quite versatile, for me. Yes, I can make stereotypical elders if I want to, but, more importantly, any sim aged child and upwards can do it. It's going to be handy when I want to play "historical" sims or families living off-the-grid.
I haven't always agreed with choices made during the voting process, but that's just how it goes. For example, I hated the fact that so many CAS items were chosen that weren't knittable or even woollen, but in the final pack I do quite like some of those items anyway. I was especially disappointed that, in my view, one of the most boring hat styles ended up being the only one we got, but that's how voting works and none of us should expect to get everything we want in a community-voted pack because there are so many views to contend with. So yeah, there are things that bug me but I'm happy with the pack in general. I think the amount of content we got compared to the content in some of the older stuff packs, is significantly increased.
Granted, I'm biased since I've been wanting knitting in the game for about 15 years.
seriously? i'm not playing one sim in a house because they cant code out bugs
But I’d really love them to to turn happy haunts into an GP or EP. I’d love a playable grim reaper, ghost hunter and psychic/medium set of careers and some rabbit hole ones like mortician, grave digger and grave robber (for all those naughty Sims out there). The ❤️❤️❤️❤️ matchmaker would be cool with some fun fortune telling aspect as well. Haunted house tours you can take or ghost hunting parties/events. Man it could be so much fun!
I like new recipes, but unless your Sim earns (or cheats) the Fresh Chef trait it's going to spoil way too fast for my liking.
Knitting, OTOH, has been incredibly useful -- it's something my Sims can do pretty much anywhere, they just need the knitting basket in inventory, and it's easy to stop and resume if something better comes up. And Plopsy has been awesome especially for my painters; I've seen paintings sell for as much as 14K Simoleons! My Fine Arts major pretty much paid her way through University with Plopsy sales, and had enough left over for a well-furnished apartment in San Myshuno. (Once she moved in her college boyfriend a few more good sales gave them enough for a house in Willow Creek before their first son was born.)

I wouldn't call Laundry Day a "1960s household activity" unless you like wearing stinky clothes. And yarn crafts have been steadily increasing in popularity especially with the lockdown and people looking for things to keep themselves occupied. I've taken up crochet again after a hiatus of a few years (I couldn't see clearly what I was doing) and it's a good way for me to avoid snacking while I'm watching TV.

This is the Upgrowth Challenge HollieBB made. Kind of fun how it uses multiple generations so those packs cover a lot of generations.

When do we want it? NOW!
I kid (with regards to the 'when')

Breed Out The Weird *COMPLETE*
I wouldn't mind Happy Haunts if we could have Demi Moore and Patrick Swayze Sims make some pottery in it as in "Ghost" That would include ceramics as well! That would make me very happy.
Two for the price of one.
Also, why not include some that kids can also interact with?
I agree I would rather have to wait and have minimal bugs and issues in the game than have a game that hasn't been properly playtested and then beta tested.

I'd rather the team stop stuff pack development, and focus their workers time on fixing bugs, basegame revamps, and adding gameplay that has depth to it. More stuff really isn't needed at this point, even if the community voted on it.
