Kits For Plantsims

I was thinking, Maxis is so insistent that Kits will fill in gaps, that they are optional, that they appeal to special people. So far I've seen nothing that really cements that, but if they want to maintain that, I was thinking...
Maybe a Kit that fills out Plantsims into something that, rather than being something you have to unlock specially in DEBUG but a proper lifestate. After all, they have the basics laid out. And of course they can always say "If you don't like it don't buy it" which is their excuse for everything.

Prepping a list of mods to add after Infants are placed into the game. Because real life isn't 'nice'.

With that out of the way, I’ve always seen plant sims as some kind of fae anyway. Maybe they can make a proper come back in a Fairy pack instead? Including the flower trail and some decent leaves to wear. They could be flower fairies. 🤷🏻♂️
plant skin details and hairs etc
that would actually be cute and tie in few packs even if ur not playing plantsims per say
but i think any gameplay addition should be base game update
since they did go add them for base game
and its kind of petty to ask people money now to actually make them playable and fun lifestate the way they should have been from start

What's more disappointing is that despite having the base programming, they never tried to do anything with it. Maybe now they will? It's the one thing that might actually be worth £4.99. Lord knows the BB and CAS kits weren't.
While it'd be great to see them updated in the base game, if having to pay for them makes them better, I'm okay with it.
It would've been cool to see plantains effected by the different neighborhood footprints.
Strangerville was another missed opportunity to update them. It is a story about strange plants and their effects on sims after all. Plantsims could have gotten a special relationship with the mother.
So true. The sims 4 versions feels more like a tribute to the plantsims in previous games. I hope they will get updated to a proper lifestate, a permanent state that doesn't dissappear when you switch households.
This is an excuse, because they put gameplay in the Paranormal Pack. INVENT a pack that makes sense! Invent a reason for it to fit in! Create the PlantSim Stuff Pack!
There's the Strangerville pack, the Eco Living pack. Now they have Kits, with the excuse that they're 'niche' packs despite, you know, not exactly being niche. A new type of cabinet or jogging clothes is not 'niche'. It's 'safe'. Nonetheless their excuse is that you don't HAVE to buy them.
And I would rather they were free, but it's obvious by now that EA isn't going to let the Devs update them for free
I really do not want to encourage this “kit” idea though, I think it is a rip off. I will NEVER pay for things like dust. That’s insanity.

would love the mermaid be fixed also
these definitely need fixing to become proper life states.
On the other hand I feel that Maxis barely tried with the plantsims and making people pay to even get something to make them represent a life state doesn't feel right to me. But I'm not a fan of kits overall so I guess that's no surprise.
Well, for starters, that's incredibly boring.
You just click a couple of menus, and then bam, you've got Forbidden Fruit. There's no sense of accomplishment, there's no challenge, it's just handed to you.
Improved PlantSims would involve having to actually play the game. Raise a skill, befriend an NPC, discover a hidden lot, find a Forbidden Fruit tree out in the world.
Additionally, the PlantSims themselves don't have any unique gameplay. Oh, they need hydration and they gain hunger by being out in the sun, but what actually makes them interesting? Can you grow your own PlantSim babies in the ground? Can you accelerate plant growth? What about unique looks? The green hair is.......... fine........... I guess.......... but where's the PlantSim clothes? In past games they wore leaves and petals, where's THAT?
