This is the very first stuff pack I have been exited for. Period. Rant away, I will buy this on release. I am looking way more forward to this than Strangerville.
That's sad... lol Just saying.
We've gotten several stuff packs in the past that brought us ice cream makers, bowling alleys, home theaters, backyard water slides, puppet theaters, hot tubs, etc... and THIS is the one that you're excited for? lol
I like the concept of this pack, but it brings too little new to the table for me to purchase it. I never had the Murphy bed in either TS2 or TS3 (had most packs, but missed TS2 Apartments and TS3 Uni), so this object has no value to me. And - although I know adding many new general objects won't slow down my game, the catalog is too packed already to make me run for more dining chairs and end tables. I love small homes, but I don't see how the content of this pack will actually add anything to tiny living. Might be a good pack content wise for those who want more objects, they don't look bad at all.

I don’t know what your problem is, but it’s clear you have some issues. It’s NOT sad nor disturbing that someone could possibly like something you don’t. All your posts have been nothing but negative towards people.

I simply don't understand why someone would be excited to pay $10 for a bed in The Sims... lol

For me, it's not about paying $10 for a bed. It's the whole concept. Combining items like tv/stereos/bookshelves in to one usable unit.
I hate the big 30x40, 50 x 50 and 64x64 lots. I rarely use them aside from parks or community lots. My favs are 30x20 and smaller for sim living.
This pack allows me to utilize those smaller lots much better.
It's not about the object for me. It's about how well it fits with my play style. And this does....very well.

Don't mind them, they don't like us to voice our concern....when you and I can see through the bull plum EA is pulling...
The biggest concern is, and should be, the sims and their personalities and the lack thereof.
We have the ability to create the most diverse world of sims we have EVER been able to create ( in terms of how they look). The issue is that no matter what we do in CAS, they all end up feeling the same, playing the same, and the "uniqueness" we try to give them in CAS never transfers over to "live" mode.

Couldn't agree more...it's a shame really.
So we have to choose our "battles". Complaining about objects and additions and what we don't want for our own games is not the way. The sims community of players are as diverse as a player community can get. And that's because of the sandbox nature of the game. We all want what enhances OUR sandbox in terms of add on content.
But the biggest issue that we have to all agree on is the lack of diverse sim personalities and how they play out in live mode. Of course, those that only play one household never see this. They wouldn't. But those of us that build our worlds from the sims up to the lots and the entirety of the whole game we play, it's quite obvious.
It requires more depth than coded animations that pretend to be doing what sims 2 did in the underlying core base of it's game.

Also they didn't even call anyone names?! Where in the WORLD are you getting that?!

Hmm perhaps they should hire a psychologist. Me for instance. I will surely give them some ideas on how to make the sims’ minds more unique, interesting and realistic.
I will think about how to do it and put it in the feedback section.
Everyone screaming for smaller telescopes and the like remembers that... that was one of the options on the second stuff pack survey, right? Meaning it was TOO LATE to implement those things into this pack.
Murphy bed is an ok addition. What leaves a bad taste in my mouth is the repetitive new objects. Chairs? Really?! Do we need anymore chairs? No we don’t!
Toilets? Nope don’t need anymore of those either. This was a great opportunity to scale down some of the things like a portable cauldron - even if you don’t have realm of magic you could use it to make mac and cheese without needing an oven - look it’s even on theme being small AND making it easier for you to cook without needing an oven.
Or a new microwave stove oven combo (we get those in the U.K.) where you can cook all the foods in one place.
The objects look very similer to previous packs (sink looks like the one from get famous, chair swatches look very similar to the jungle adventures pack).
I just feel like the thought process is w good one the execution is just rubbish! Yes it only costs £10 or whatever it is U.K. money wise but it should still have new ‘stuff’ in it. Not just the same old assets repackaged with a slightly different shape and swatch.
Even the CAS stuff looks so similar to previous packs. It’s just frustrating. Don’t get me started on the tiny living buffs as well! Cheaper bills is a reward, romantic buff is also a reward and a lot trait. It’s just not unique enough. They are all things you can achieve in the game already! Would have been better to add smaller lots to the existing worlds or have rewards that aren’t already in game.
For example a working from home buff: logic its more enjoyable in a tiny home because you’ve got all your work stuff in easy reach and you can concentrate more.
think about it if the developers of the sims4 had more time pretty postive the sims4 would of been more complete but sadly its not like this today most game are micro transcation where missing content must be bough but i love the sims4 but do realise if they would have waited say 2016 to realise the sims4 it would of been more complete at least as a player thats what i think

These are all valid criticisms and you managed to make them all without calling anyone names, and that is all I was saying.
I think that Maxis cares and are making content that they want to make, they want each pack to be a complete pack that includes a general amount of gameplay, build and CAS items. But they are also making these decisions based on what they believe is possible within a limited time frame. And with this stuff pack they were pretty limited in what they could do.
After Moschino this is now the second pack i am not wasting money on , Less and less in the packs and the price keeps climbing , Oh for the days of sims 1.2 and 3 where we actually got packs with enough content to make them worth buying instead of being screwed over to feed the EA cash cow , How can bunk beds be too much when they already have the animations to use from previous versions of the sims , It's just graham with his excuses because its not something he wants in the pack
You only have to look at packs like Pets , Island Living , University , Realm of Magic to realise that EA tries to fit less and less into each pack so they can bring out more and more packs to give the stuff that was kept aside
I think the devs care but they are told what they can and cannot put into the packs . Its the people who are higher up that do not care , maybe why EA has such a high turnover of staff
Yeah shame there's only 1 gameplay feature in this pack... but we shouldn't forget worse things that've happened in the past. I.e. Luxury Party Stuff, My first pet stuff etc. In fact all these packs I do use still, but EA has definatly improved the packs in the past year, in terms of their features i.e. celebrities, island living, university, seasons etc. I think the future for the Sims 4 is still bright. Prehaps the lack of things in this pack could suggest they're working on a very big project? And their using this pack to keep us busy until this 'big project' is released.. just a thought

1. The previous versions of Sims were on different game engines, so you can’t just plug in animations from previous versions into TS4.
2. Graham doesn’t work on the stuff pack team anymore, in fact he hasn’t for about 2 years now.
