the only problem is, now i don’t wanna play my game at all until pets because i want them all to have puppers and kitties and i feel like they’re missing out rn because now we KNOW it’s coming 😦

is there seriously a chance we might see pets announced tmrw? i’m so excited ;-;

where did you hear this?

maxis teased an announcement tomorrow at gamescom for the sims 4 and they used the sims 3 pets loading screen music as the background.

sorry but there’s no way this could have been an accident. They would have specifically had to have picked that loading screen music and if they just did that to mess with everyone then they can actually just go suck a dick

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 😦
