😂

And EA still wants folks to pay for it.

@@kimmycook2698honestly the only thing they could do to fix that pack atp would be to make it free 😭

At least Journey to Batu and My first pet stuff don’t break the game

Good lmao. It’s not worth it

I’m still baffled that people just let this one go. And the pack is still being sold as broken. If it was a small company doing this, people would’ve ripped them to shreds, definitely cancelled and humiliated them on social media. But a monster like EA gets a pass. Crazy

I don't think I've had a single wedding go smoothly since the Wedding Stories pack came out! I don't blame Jesse for not putting herself through it again lol!

THIS!

It was so bad that’s when I started realizing that the packs were starting to feel like I’ve been scammed 😂

she looks like she scurries up the slide at school

@@alissalalalaas a former child who had pet rats, you are both correct

Ikr! I really want my sims to have the perfect wedding and I’ve been waiting for the pack to be fixed so I can download it but still it’s broken! So disappointing. Instead of making new packs I wish they’d make time to fix that one

I'm mad that 1) that desk totally should have just been in Cats & Dogs and 2) the rodents deserved better! We could have at least gotten expanded fish, lizards, birds, etc. with it.

expanding fish?? @@crowqueenamps

@@shortcakefairyy Like adding a few interactions or something. It could even be "admire fish" or "add a decoration". Something.

@@crowqueenampsI think you can admire fish tanks? But yeah, more aquariums and accessories or clutter or anything would have been so nice! Or the ability to breed fish, like we can with frogs, or the addition of other aquarium critters like snails or shrimp etc. (I’m not sure what we actually have atm lol)

@@VultureSkins Exactly like that! You would think that a pet expansion would, you know, do that.

that's what I thought 😂

don’t do him like that

@@oscarkamala I honestly don't dislike it! Lol!

omg now that you mention it... 😂

I absolutely believe whoever pitched it was a Schitt's Creek fan

You can run a restaurant in the dine out. It's just broken beyond belief.

I believe you’ll have to refer to him by his full name for folks to know who you’re talking about. *James Turner, formerly Sims Supply*

@@stephiechefy do you mean James Turner, formerly known as The Sims Supply?

even with the fix mod it's hard to play, I love the idea but the amount of action cancelling for all staff just makes it irritating

Carl Sims has a mod that lets you work at the restaurant… you can cook, host, or be the waiter… you can even do all the jobs if you want to try…

Maybe cuz not enough people are buying it to review it lmao

I've only ever seen people use the build/buy stuff in it, never seen anyone play it outside of reviews. So telling, really.

I played it when I got it a few years ago, not on release I don't think. The little droid friend you get it adorable and I had fun hacking to get into the one area to steal the cargo, I got stuck at the point where it wanted me to persuade people, I don't like doing that for politics, so I've put off going back, but I have just caught up on a lot of star wars shows so I could watch Ahsoka and understand it, and it's got a lot of Bad Batch references in it, the mix you can get that looks like cereal is what Omega and Wrecker always eat after a mission so I plan on going back to finish it, after I play with apartments of course lol! 😊

It's the kind of pack that you buy if you really like Star Wars, have modest fun playing through it once or twice, and then forget about

a pack ain't automatically bad bc u don't care about it. though that's probably the exact reason why it has no few, bc no one buys it

The worst bit is how flat the textures are for it. So like even if you liked the concept of the holes they look so flat and dreadful.

As someone who did go to school in the US, I can say that it was somehow more depressing than the actual experience irl 😭

How long ago was it from? Also yeah, high school years was… not something I felt reflected my time in American public schools lol

High school years definitely was a more sugar-coated, movie-version of public American high school. I graduated two years ago and it definitely was different

Agreed. Schools here are totally different. I don't know why, but it made me feel anxious. Maybe it's the movies/TV series set in American high schools that I've had the misfortune to see. My anxiety just couldn't cope. I just use the build and buy - I don't play it.

​@@christinamoxon oh no that's so sad ❤️

yeah, rats are prone to respiratory issues so they need a properly ventilated space and can't be kept in a tank like that. they're also social creatures and can't be kept alone, you need at least two or preferably more. so the sims franchise didn't progress much in terms of animal welfare :/

Don't worry. The Sims Rats leave and explore space and send you post cards. They're living their best life out there. 😂

Right? And also the fact that you only get a single rat! You need at least two since they're so social!

i get what you're trying to say but "in my correct opinion" is crazy

@@crowqueenamps I was going to say, at least some of the types should have more than one.

we need a mod to give them accurate unique looking cages + proper amount of animals in one specific cage and the proper toys and enrichment for the respective animal instead of just the very most stereotypical ones. when my poor little guys have small cages with barely any toys I feel so sad for them. even though they're all just pixels I can't help but feel bad that they have such a small cage and no toys that they actually like. especially with the rats. I love rats. they could easily take the toy doggy playpen from Sims 2, update it a bit, and just make it so you can move your pet between the playpen and the cage instead of having them be stuck in one, same interactions nothing special, and fix the problems. mostly that being that there's no playpens for the ratties! or the ham-hams! and you can't let your piggie cuddle with you on the couch, even if you have no other pets! even if your sim could let their piggie out of the cage and roam in a safe ENCLOSED area, or even just sit next to your sim and watch TV if they were irl, you can't do that! it feels weird that Sims 3 small pets were better than Sims 4 considering how the rodents don't have any special interactions depending on the species they're all using the same code just a different model, but good lord... at least your sim could theoretically let them play outside of the cage. that and some of the cages BESIDES the rodents seemed to be set up properly. with all the reptile cages having heat lamps and made to mimic the natural environment of the pet. though I don't own any reptiles, I had one tortoise as a kid so I can only say that based on how his cage was set up. side note but it'd be so cute if they let your sim make a tortoise playpen during summer days / during the day. my mom used to set one up for Tortie during hot summer days in the front yard to let him play in the grass (and nibble on dandelions)

​@@WelcomeApathy well, what part of it was wrong tho?

It’s not a fix if you have to pay for an expansion lol

@@VultureSkins There's lots of fixes and features in Sims games that you only get with the proper packs.

​​@@VultureSkinsisn't Sims 2 ultimate collection free now?

@@VultureSkinsbut you have to remember that sims 2 is not an online game. You couldn’t just download a bug fix because you bought the cd. At least it was like this when I was young, don’t know if it’s available online now?

@@VultureSkinssims ultimate collection is free though

Literally. Nothing was added there 💀

i was so disappointed. the world is pretty but it's such a useless pack, i never play with it

honestly i use a lot of the decor and i love the world, but that’s probably because i’m part polynesian and it’s nice to see some representation. but you’re right, mermaids suck

Probably the reason it’s usually voted higher than others like High School Years is because the world is unique and so are the BB and CAS items.

Omg yes!!!

keep an eye out because they are often giving away certain packs for free. Most recently, my first pet stuff and luxury garden.

Hell, just combine the pack and give refunds. That's my ultimate impossible pipe dream.

Tbh I feel like the most effective 'refresh' for My First Pet Stuff would just be to smash it in half and turn it into separate kits. One kit that's the pet clothes and pet furniture (so the cat trees and pet bowls. Anything that has a proper 'function' if you own cats and dogs), and another that's the sim clothes, sim furniture, and rodents. But I feel like the company may pull a complete moron and separate into MORE than 2 kits, in which case the entire thing would be more than $10 and the community would go feral with rage.

@@Raina111111 yeah I think at this point they can’t do anything to make that train wreck cost MORE. That’s why I figured the only saving grace would be to add the stuff that should’ve come with cats and dogs to that pack and just start from the ground up with new content for the stuff pack. I’m sure they can’t do that though.

About had a seizure trying to read that

I think it's fiddly as heck at times, but the CAS is some of my favourite and the ability to graduate early is an excellent feature that (imo) should have been more widely advertised as a feature

Where is rat slang for vagina? I have never heard of that in Australia.
