Yeah, I would. Mostly because it's a lifestage, it's a 'must have' in terms of gameplay. However, I know most people would be really 🐸🐸🐸🐸 off, because they assume toddlers will be free via Patch.

The reason is that unless they restrict toddlers to a special toddler neighborhood they will also have to make modifications to all earlier released expansions to make them compatible with toddlers. But who can imagine that they will restrict toddlers to special toddler neighborhoods like they did with the young adults when they added them to TS2 in a way so young adults only could live in the special university neighborhoods?
I understand they can't fix the height, but they could fix other features, like the clothing, they should not have the same as the others, and how elders and adults have wrinkles, you should be able to add things to them to make them appear younger. The other thing that they could fix, is aspirations..I want the teens to have their own like children do.
Depends on what it comes with. If it's toddlers with tons of more options like an open daycare they can go to, nannies, private school for older kids, tons of toys including all the ones that came with previous games for toddlers, a ton of toddler interactions, and lots of nursery furniture including a functional changing table, high chairs, strollers, and cribs, then yes I would buy it. Anything less and the answer is no.
I definitely think they should make an expansion for just toddlers and toddler things! It would be a great choice for the EA and Maxi's team. It would make most of the users happy and it would be a great financial choice for them.
I'd be fine with them putting toddlers in a patch and then doing a GP or SP with extra bits for them.
I can't imagine the fallout if they ask us to pay for things that should've been in the base game.
No, I would not pay for toddlers. They should be patched in and then if they do a GP for Generations then that I would buy. I do like have toddlers and the fact if you get tired of playing them as a toddler you can age them up. I age up my children after awhile.
No i definitively won't buy a EP/GP/SP to get toddler, don't get me wrong, i love them and i really want them back but this would just be a scandal.
It's like if you go to a fast food, order your meal and pay, tell you that you'll have to wait for your French fry because they haven't plan that so many people wanted them, came back 2 hours later and said that they finally have it but that you must paid to get them, even if you have already paid your entire meal 2 hours ago. Ridiculous right ?
That's exactly how i feel if someone ask me if i would paid for toddler.
Nope. Maxis can charge for whatever content they want, but I am not interested in footing the bill for stuff they openly admitted to running out of time for.
Toddlers should be in a free patch. Charging for them send a big hand gesture to everyone who they burned by excluding them in the first place.
While I completely agree that Toddlers should release as patch content for free, I also think that IF EA decides to release them as DLC, people will still buy it anyway. They have nothing to lose anyway.
We are all (if you like toddlers) so desperate for them by now so that they know we would even pay for them.
People saying that they aren't going to do it; think twice.
Sadly, yes. I feel like a huge part of the game is missing without toddlers since I play more with families. When a baby jumps out of the crib into being a kid its just...... I don't know. I feel like during a sims toddler stages, you are teaching them everything about life. From walking to talking, somethings just really special about it and it makes me feel like I know the sim a lot more. Almost like I have a better relationship with the sim? Sounds a little strange, but I don't know how else I cant put it into words.

i did it, think twice, but no way. I don't bother if they put toddler with basic items in an update and later made a GP/SP just for them.
But if toddler are paid content, this will be the end of sims 4 for me, even with sims 5 if there is one.
i do love toddler, but there is things that i just can't accept.
I refuse to pay for base game content like toddlers. I've stopped to play and uninstalled the sims 4 months ago. If toddlers came back in a patch, I will try the game again. And maybe if something of interesting came out (seasons, pets, or supernaturals) I may even buy some expansions.
Othervise, I'll keep play the sims 3 and the sims 2.
No because we shouldn't have to pay for something that should have been part of the base game.
Therefore EA's problem now is that they can't remove the multitasking (which they chose to make instead of toddlers) from the game and replace it with toddlers. So toddlers can't return to the game until TS5 is released

Yes, I think so too. Even though I agree with anyone saying we shouldn't, I think most would. Especially when they would be done right and cute and all.
Honestly? No. I absolutely would not.
I'm not that desperate for them -- it would be nothing but a slap to the face if they decided they were going to charge for a life stage that should have been included in the base game at the start.
I WOULD purchase a Generations type EP/toddler related packs IF the toddlers were released as a free patch.
I love(d) my sims games before.. but I would see this as the team using their consumers as nothing more but a doormat, and I wouldn't participate with it anymore. If someone chose to support that, and pay for toddlers.. that's entirely their decision. But it definitely wouldn't be mine.
thats why we will keep getting milked for more and more money with less and less satisfaction. people shouldnt stand for paying more for something that should already be in the game. bad enough we get incomplete stuff with broken updates. maybe if there is a sims 10 we can eventually pay seperately for each line of code.
Yes. Because that's really the only way that the developers have the resources to do toddlees properly, with flushed out animations and enough assets to make them fun. But I'm of the opinion that we're never getting toddlers in the game, because the developers don't care enough about what the sim community wants. We would have had them by now if they did.

NOPE!
people dont grow from babies to children with the option of buying toddlerhood.
if toddlers are added it needs to be a base game update or you can keep it.
next thing you know sims 5 will be charging for the grim reaper to collect your dead. no thanks
