Sims 4 Nifty Knitting Stuff Pack: Overviewīelow is a brief overview of all the build/buy objects that came with The Sims 4 Nifty Knitting Stuff Pack. Giving the Stuff Packs a rest in favour of major bug fixes or better game packs would be a good idea. Some Simmers are reporting that Sims with the knitting aspirations are neglecting basic needs to the point of near-death in favour of knitting. There are almost 20 Stuff Packs for The Sims and while they are all nice-to-haves in their own way, they all come with a litany of problems. But if you’re on a tight budget, you’re better up saving up or waiting for a sale on Game Packs or Expansion Packs.Īdded after publication: The biggest annoyance with Stuff Packs is that they are increasingly feeling like they could have simply been added to another pack. If you want a little treat for your game, it’s quaint enough to be worth it. Overall, like most Stuff Packs, Nifty Knitting is a nice-to-have. That, however is veering from the topic at hand: a review of The Sims 4 Nifty Knitting Stuff Pack. We don’t have the answers, but things like the blogs and the six-month road maps do help a lot. Striking the balance between a complete disconnect between the Sims community and the process of releasing new packs – especially in these strange times – is a tremendously difficult task. Please do not do that… but Simmers (including us!) can get a bit carried away when there is a leak about a new Sims 4 pack – intentional or not. We’re not advocating for removing the mystery or excitement and the hype form the anticipation of all packs. You know, like an underwater or Star Wars or whatever it may be Game Pack, right? We love speculation and hints as much as the next Simmer, but sometimes it helps to know a little bit more rather than shooting in the dark for something that might never happen. It was a reminder that open and clear communication not only helps players understand the complex process of game development but also softens the blow when packs do not live up to expectations. The best part about the Sims 4 Nifty Knitting Stuff Pack was the blog posts which detailed and shared the development journey. But, like we said, we must remember that the point is to add stuff…not gameplay.Īnd here’s the thing: because of the community involvement, the developers were transparent about how things work and why this was not an option, the disappointment in discovering that was a bit easier to take. Plopsy, while useful for knitted items, cannot be used to list or sell any other items, making the replay value of one of its biggest appeals somewhat of a let-down. The release of My First Pet Stuff Pack came under fire for doing exactly that when it followed the release of Cats and Dogs. That criticism isn’t exactly new, though. Not that recycling is a bad thing, but many of the packs released lately feel like they could have been combined into one central expansion pack idea.
