If they were going to include merely a hot tub as an anniversary gift, why not include the sunken hot tub (the one recessed into the floor) from Sims 2, or the 2-person heart-shaped love tub from the Sims 1. These were iconic at the time and would h…
-
I agree! That hot tub is so gaudy and over the top, I doubt I will use it much (depending on the swatches). Maybe on a public lot, outdoors. It is certainly not useable indoors. I guess it is nice for people who don't want to bother with Perfect …

Origin updated last night for some reason, but other than that there has been no sign that anything is happening in honour of the anniversary and it is already Feb. 4th (which is the actual day). In game or on the forums, there's also not much of an…
-
It had better be more than a gif on Twitter. As I said in the other thread, we will probably get the minimum of a patch with a few decor and build items that will hark back to the previous 3 games. That's the minimum because I think they should do …
-
There ought to be something given to players in a patch for the 20 year anniversary of the Sims or it won't feel like a celebration. I agree that it would be nice if they would rerelease Sims 2 the Ultimate Collection for anyone who wants it, and al…

I also follow Carl's guide, and tend to use roses as my fertilizer. It can grow in large quantities and if you run out you can buy more using a sim's phone. I also use bees as well as the fertilizer. I am sad that the Growfruit effect (which was …

I would not only like to have more karaoke songs, but more styles of singing and maybe even a singing career and the ability to perform live at mikes (like the Comedians can). It would be lovely if sims could sing show tunes, classical music like o…

I personally have liked the Sims 4 (as I have enjoyed all previous versions of the Sims in their heyday), but I am very concerned at this news. I don't even want an optional version of the a multiplayer game in the Sims 5 to be included, regardless…
-
The designs and options for CAS are largely beautiful and varied, but I could not be more disappointed that we are being given only 15 CAS clothing and accessory options in total. That is a pitiful number for a Stuff pack, especially a Community Vot…
-
I agree with all those who've written that we should have gift giving as part of knitting (accompanied by appropriate moodlets for both sims as well as relationship boosts -- or subtractions if the knitting is bad or ugly). Some of the best gifts I …
-
I personally have never seen bunk beds or loft beds in a dorm; in fact, my dorm had regulations against them for safety reasons. Bunk beds and loft beds would be very welcome in game, but I agree with everyone who thinks that they should come in a …

There's one in Parenthood that is fairly plain and rather old-fashioned looking, with no shelving unit on top. I rather like that one and find it versatile. I also find the City Living version (the first one we got) with the shelving -- it works in…
-
The DIY art style was was my second choice (after Granny Chic), so overall I am happy. With the Laundry Day Stuff pack, pretty much everything I voted for ended up not winning and I wound up with my second choice on nearly all of it. When the pack …
-
I love this topic! I sincerely hope that we get lots of knitted crafts (since knitting seems to be the only activity) and that most of them have some sort of gameplay activity attached to them, such as the ability to unlock as well as gift these it…

It is a conspiracy theory to say the first poll was rigged. Read the publicly available information for how Survey Monkeys conducts their polls and tallies their results (which you can easily do) and you will see that this was not the case. Plus, i…
-
I feel fairly certain that there will be at least a few natural swatches for Granny Delights. And, speaking personally, I loved Movie Night's boho style, since to this day we still don't have anything like it and it also fits really well with Sulani…
-
I like them all, although the Cozy Craft Workshop (the second one) slightly less than the others (it's just a bit boring).The third one, DIY Delight, reminds me of the aesthetic of the Parenthood pack, so I wouldn't mind it because I like crosspack …
-
First we need basic simple crafts like colourful scarves, hats and mittens, as well as lots of fun wool socks, with stripes and patterns. The socks in particular would be great and so useful. In fact, any of these would be nice to have sims give ea…
-
I agree! I think ideally the new pack should include the top two or three options for gameplay, since they must also have received a lot of support. After all, the theme is Arts and Crafts, and both pottery and glassblowing easily fit into that cat…
-
I love all these ideas, especially the gameplay ideas from the OP (thank you!) What I would really like to see in addition to all these ideas is items (and not just clothing) which can be given as gifts and which come with unique moodlets and moodbo…
-
I don’t understand this complaint. It was a ranked vote — simmers ranked the packs from most to least favourite, so the first choice had to win by more than a plurality. If they did it properly then as they eliminated the theme that got the least …
-
Even though it sounds in this thread as though there will be only the one gameplay option of knitting in this pack, I do hope we get at least one more option from the list. Arts and Crafts was my preferred choice and I even ranked knitting 1st. So…
-
I have a feeling that Paralives and Sims 5 might actually come out at around the same time, and certainly not in the next year. The Paralives creator is only now hiring a team to help him develop gameplay, while EA is also recently making hires (so…
-
I had a pizza successfully delivered in Sulani the last time I played (a day or two ago, since I have mostly been building and renovating lately). It was the new Tikki Masala pizza, which looked delicious. I was kind of hoping for a ham & pinea…
-
Yes, I read the blog description since I posted that question, and I think I understand how it works now. They want us to rank our preferred theme, and then within that theme, to pick our favourite type of gameplay. They didn't rule out doing more …
-
Sorry, I didn't mean that only elders can knit -- that is why I said crafty types too. I don't personally knit, but my mother has knitted my whole life starting from when she was a very young woman, and made us all kinds of knitted toys, clothes, ou…
-
I loved the fall clothing for kids and toddlers; I plan to use the little boy's coat for both genders, though, (which luckily I can). Even though we knew about the stretchable columns already I think that it is an excellent and underrated feature (…
-
I do wish that there was at least one more lot -- perhaps a community lot -- in the midst of that shell row housing just to give Sims somewhere to go in the centre of town besides the bar and library. It would make a nice place for a shop or nightc…
