I think there’s a pretty good chance they’ll expand on the relax and/or lounge interaction in the future.

the lounge piece is ALWAYS an end piece

Yeah, but they’re just messing around with the sofas to show what’s possible.

I think so, too.

Well, one pack may have less of this, but more of that, and another pack more of this, less of that.

That being said, I do agree with you (as do many), that most packs this iteration do not feel worth the asking price; especially when compared to TS3 EPs. Whatever the reason (most likely greed on EA’s part), it just doesn’t seem fair to us customers. Most of them I would not recommend at full price.

If Sims had proper personality depth and autonomy, and packs were either higher in value or lower in price, I’d be more forgiving of things like a re-used animation here and there. It’s frustrating because I feel that this game has so much potential, but unfortunately that potential remains largely untapped.

I disagree on there being nothing wrong with the animation. They did recycle, and the result looks completely unnatural. Not surprised when clearly no one there has ever seen a sectional sofa or done the bare minimum google search; the lounge piece is ALWAYS an end piece.

Knowing how much they like to re-use already existing animation, I doubt they will replace it. I think it will stay.
In general it disappoints a lot to watch the same animation repeating all the time.
In my opinion it’s not completely fair that packs have same price, but some of them bring new animation and some just reuse what we have already seen.
I still think that packs for ts4 are overpriced for the content we’re getting.

Will 100% be kept for this and since it’s spliced into the lounge chair posture there won’t be any multitask actions either.

It’s runs too slow that’s why it looks kind of strange, slow motion style.

I thought the guy was gonna put up his feet on the ottoman/table/footstool 🙁 Is that possible now? Like a two part lounge chair?

I’m guessing they’re using this animation on this sectional in case someone’s sitting on either side. It’s not the most natural way to sit on the lounge part of the sofa. I would sit on one side and then scoot backwards to get into the lounge position, but maybe this is a universal solution to blocked entry on both sides? Since you can use that lounge part in the center or left or right?

Interesting, would romantic interactions on sofas & beds return at some point, or should we wait for “hot date” kind of pack.
