Electronic Arts is no stranger to the belated introduction of gameplay items that existed in core releases of prior Sims generations, with The Sims 4 originally launching without toddlers and pools, though these eventually re-appeared in free updates.Įlectronic Arts has been put to the sword in the last several months regarding its microtransaction practices, and its strong focus on lootbox-oriented gameplay led to such a negative consumer reaction that many countries and states are still looking into the legalities of such practices. The Stuff Pack is now poised to re-introduce rodent-sized pets back into the franchise, which is something many fans say should have simply been included in the actual expansion itself rather than a follow-up Stuff Pack.

For example, the prior iterations of the Pets expansion included small critters like birds, snakes, and mice, which were categorically absent in the Cats & Dogs expansion. In reaction to this, Sims fans have seen their Plumbobs turn red, and have raised plenty of ire directed towards the general concept of 'DLC for DLC'.īeyond the concept as a whole, other fans are disappointed that the Stuff Pack is filled with items some gamers say should have been included with Cats & Dogs in the first place. While those without the expansion pack can still purchase the My First Pet Stuff pack, they won't be able to interact with many new objects that come with the pack.
