Looking through the Pets tag on my reblogs tumblr and crying ;-;

So I decided to do a bit of investigating and see if I could estimate when Pets will come out for TS4.

The Sims 1

  • Fifth Expansion
  • Released in September 2002, 2 years and 7 months after The Sims released
  • Added Cats, Dogs, Birds, Fish and Reptiles

The Sims 2

  • Fourth Expansion
  • Released in October 2006, 2 years and 1 month after The Sims 2 released
  • Added Cats, Dogs, Womrats and Birds

The Sims 3

  • Fifth Expansion
  • Released in October 2011, 2 years and 4 months after The Sims 3 released
  • Added Cats, Dogs, Birds, Horses, Rodents, Snakes, Turtles, Lizards, Deer and Raccoons

So it seems most likely that Pets for TS4 will come out sometime around October 2016, if they follow the pattern of the previous games. I would say cats, dogs and birds are a given, as well as some small reptiles/rodents. Horses are what I’m not sure about but I would be very upset if they didn’t add them.

I think the next expansion coming this year will be Hot Date/Nightlife related most likely.

Well we’re getting up to a year later of my initial estimation of when we would get Pets 😦

3 hours and 252 edits later, I’m now onto editing my current rotation of gameplay (which I’m on the last day of playing anyway, so still almost a full rotation behind), which is still 542 screenshots to sort through…

@indielectualll I listen to music sometimes but when I’m doing editing for hours it gets a bit mundane and I need something a bit more engaging to keep me going. The YouTube recommendations are a good shout though, YouTube knows me pretty well at this point lmao

@ridgeport SAME. I love true crime documentaries/stories and I also like to listen to horror stories too (but not too much because I end up freaking myself out lol). Do you have any specific recommendations for channels/playlists/podcasts?
