Maybe it could be something along the lines of a new television set. I’m not sure it should be something that ties with the theme of the retro aspect. However, it should be entertaining enough, I’m not sure if a television set is premium enough but let your imagination flow with all sorts of ideas for this SP.

Basically it should be here if it followed the sims 3 timeframes.

Obviously not a troll…Honestly did you do your research or at least check it? The sims 3 released around June 2009 than the pets expansion pack came two years after around October. So most likely we will see a Pets expansion soon around 2017 to mid 2018.

When people become OK with this it is not just harming The Sims 4 but the whole franchise. I would rather choose EA completely stopping the franchise than turning it to a complete joke like what it is now. People were OK with the cuts TS3 had so EA decided to do aggressive cuts with TS4. Now when players are still OK with these cuts, if there will be a Sims 5 (And I hope there will be no Sims 5) it will be even worse than this, more cuts, more half baked stuff, more incomplete game.

EA is not the one to blame, because it is a company and wants to make profits. It will keep cutting costs and when people still accept them then they will say “Hey, this is good. Let us cut more cost and give them a half bone next time instead of a bone!”

At least if this franchise stops there is a chance one day someone will come up with a game and fill the gap

I’m not saying that you do not have the right to complain, in fact I encourage the complaints because it get’s your voice heard and gives feedback. What I am saying is a lot of of the community do that in a way that does not help them, the community, or the game. There’s so many hate messages, insults, and arguing within the community that the fun of being a community is draining. I am still fair new to the community and I don’t want to just block people for this reason or that. I try to sympathize and understand everyone, but people can be very cruel.

Sure, so if it is following that strategy, there should be a family play pack next, and then Pets following, as I stated. Showtime was still after Pets… but if they do things differently, who knows what we will see happen with the franchise. At this rate we will be waiting another year before we see EP4 anyhow, but I hope I’m wrong there.

I do understand, but the problem is that WE have the right to complain, because either you want to see it or not there is problem with this game since the beginning. The situation here is that if they wouldn’t have shipped the half-baked game they shipped, they wouldn’t have to “FIX” the game. You don’t put out a broken product in the market to fix it later. No, my friend, that’s not the way you do things. It has been TWO years since its release and they’re still adding BASIC features that should’ve been into the game since its release. Imagine what they could’ve added in these TWO years if they didn’t have to FIX the game.

TS3 was definitely a mess, don’t get me wrong. Especially for Mac users like myself, they cheaped out and didn’t even port it properly. I had many issues with TS3, trust me, but the gameplay in general was my favorite of all 4.

My real issue with 4 is the lack of deep, immersive gameplay. The lack of mischeif, charm, and consequences. It is so clean and the Sims emotions and whims make them lose personality and they are always so darn cheery. Multitasking can actually make tasks longer, and there’s no way to avoid taking to every sim in the area even if you don’t WANT to. It still feels like a side game or a tablet game. It’s pretty and runs smooth, no one doubts CAS is legendary, but gameplay feels shallow and boring.

These are only my opinions and it’s not like I have never had fun in TS4. I am hopeful for CL and want to see the game do well and get better. I’m not a huge family player, or supernatural player, so yes the sims community is very diverse and many different aspects will make us unhappy or happy. It’s true not everyone will get every feature they want. TS4 seems to be growing at a slower rate, but I do hope it grows.
