I think the easter egg might be the cow plant eating a Sim drawing on the snack-bag. It feels like it's small enough for many people to miss and enough of an in-joke for the Sims community to be a fun thing to find if you're an avid Sims fan.
the backpack storage made me think about how you could play a divorced parents storyline, and the kid packs up all their toys and stuff in their bag to go over to the other parents house!
@raisingrem9661 you're welcome! I struggle too lol, more with the actually doing it than the creative process. I always struggle with making sims and houses, sometimes more times than others! if I come up with any more storyline ideas, I can reply back if you'd like?
I'd love to see Lilsimsie do a cowplant dedicated room or build. I play a sim who has an entire room dedicated to cowplants and cowplant build objects. As a fellow enthusiast of cowplants I know shed do it right.
I'm pretty sure you can place meals in it and it will slow their decay. This would eliminate the need for the refrigerated display from city living. I'm excited to test it
This is an off-the-grid functional cooler (currently only available from Outdoor Retreat & Toddler Stuff I believe) that you can take with you... wherever you go... for less than the cost of the cooler. This item is understated & epic. And I LOVE that the backpacks serve some sort of function now. Even if you leave it on the kid's floor, you can story tell with stashing their diary or a favorite toy or some books or whatever in there. AND, if you have tons of things in your inventory you don't want to accidentally sell... it's nice to stash them in the bag. NOW, I'm wondering if you can put the lunch box in the backpack.
What's ironic is that toddler's cannot use the cooler in the toddler stuff pack either. Toddlers never could use coolers and I think that's by design. I think the tweet is in error.
I'd have homework in my kids inventory and then buy a spare homework to keep in their backpack in their bedroom and then they have spare and I can see it easily lmao
I like the idea of having a sack lunch in the lunch box and then my child sim has like a juice box with their meal (I play with mods so I mean when I follow the kid to elementary school with the go to school mod)
exactly! you could put it next to their desk and add focus decor there so they'd have a dedicated spot to do their homework 😊 would be good for 100 baby gameplay too, you could keep a bunch of spare ones in there!
@@alwaysasking4646 Loss is a 4-panel comic about miscarriage in a series of webcomics which usually had lighter themes. It was not well-received, and spread/parodied/memed via random objects, typically lines, depicting the positions of the characters in each panel. Some of them were very abstract, causing "is this loss?" to become a meme in itself. An example would be the following, sometimes with a + drawn between them to further separate the 4 panels: l l| ll l_
One of the bags has a skull on it. It could mean either a Funeral/Death Pack (crossing my fingers) or perhaps pirates/boats (it looks like a jolly roger).
I do second this... (also, ut feels like there's been a lot of things related to Grim in the past year or so from the gurus, so I wonder if that actually is something that'll happen)
I hope they fix the toddler interaction with the lunch box because I was excited at the idea of keeping the lunchbox in my toddlers inventory so they have access to snacks
I feel like something realistic that the sims could do with the backpacks inventory situation is maybe a sim has homework in the backpack but left the backpack at home so they get in trouble at school or something for leaving their homework at home.
I think the easter egg might be the angry face next to the space patch--it's a reference to Spore, another Maxis title! The angry face is the icon for the "hostile" relationship, which is most commonly associated with the Grox, the antagonists of the Space Stage, who always start out as hostile.
I love this! I always like adding a personality to rooms by hinting at their interests with clutter items. Having more than 5 swatches on those backpacks + actual storage functionality is so useful! ❤
I actually really miss college, it’s so odd being in school for like 20 years and then all of a sudden you’re just expected to work for the next 55 years of your life?!?!?
I noticed that the many of the social interactions with horses involve science, like "discuss the origin of the universe" or "discuss the possibility of time travel" which makes me think that either the rocket ship lunch box and/or the alien scribble on the backpack could be an easter egg hinting towards something new. I wonder if we're getting an "into the future" pack, or maybe a get to work refresh?
Honestly, this update comes just in time for me. Currently decorating an apartment for my sim and her daughter, and that watermelon swatch fits her room perfectly. Also always nice to have some basic swatches, too. I wish they'd add more shelving/tables/etc. that fit in corners. I often find myself wanting a little display cabinet or something to sit in the corner of a room, but none of the ones already in the game work with the aesthetic. I don't have access to CC or anything, otherwise it probably wouldn't be such an issue.
So gluon was hunting for clues in horse ranch. I think the abundance of stars is a clue towards the next pack and that might be the same Easter egg the guru used here.
The lunchboxes working like fridges makes me genuinely so happy! There is always a small amount of stress when one of my sims goes to school and didn’t eat breakfast. Or I had them make a sack lunch and then they leave it behind! It not only fixes that small issue but gives it a cute way to fix it!
I adore this lunchboxes and school bags! I love how they match and how functional they are, and that's even free! I absolutely adore this SDX drop! I love all designs of them, the watermelon is my favorite though and the cowplant is funny too
omg you can put the lunch box in the backpack (i’m assuming, haven’t tried) and then go camping anywhere and have food. real nomad lifestyle!! love it!
10:04 in the camo swatch, upper right corner, there's a Loss.jpg drawing. Very fitting for a school thing but also I hate it cuz it reminds me of how old I am, that meme happened SO LONG AGO like probably a decade
For anyone who doesn't want to go to KnowYourMeme for this, Loss.jpg was a chapter of a webcomic. It was very jarring at the time it was released because the entire project was intended to be comedic, but this specific chapter was about the main character's partner having an a.b.o.rtion. it was memed TO DEATH AND BACK, you guys don't understand. Not because of the subject matter, but because of how poorly it fit the context of the comic it originated from. Eventually it was simplified to the stick format (4-panel division: first panel has one person, second panel has 2 people with one sitting, third panel has two people standing with one being taller, and the fourth panel had one standing and one laying down) and then reproduced EVERYWHERE. It was even inserted in other memes. That stick formation is the same level of energy of the Cool S from high school, except totally opposite, this thing is like a curse. Again, totally makes sense to be in a school bag thing, but GOD does it hurt to remember.
Labor Day Birthday here. I feel your birthday pain. But now I bring Popsicles to my students on my birthday. It kind of makes up for all of those years of "sorry too busy for cupcakes" on my birthday as a kid.
“Plants don’t go in backpacks let’s keep it realistic”. Dear Simsie, have you ever seen the bottom of a kindergarteners backpack? There are leaves, dandelions, baby’s breath, entire branches, rocks, … basically all of nature.
That facility sign swatch with the arrow is great! I'm definitely putting it in my Huehuetl house. It's a vertical house that looks like a huehuetl drum. I currently have the other big arrow wall decal in there, but this sign looks better.
i'm so glad they added functionality to the backpacks, it makes it so realistic now!! it could be so cute if your child was going to a friends house, or their families house or if they ran away! :O
I like it for like a teen runaway taking whatever they can put in their backpack when leaving home, or siblings who don't wanna share their toys keeping them in their backpacks in their inventory so their sibling won't take it and they won't leave them around the house
I feel you with the unfortunate birthday date. Mine was usually on the first week of the summer vacation or on the last day of school. I've rarely had birthday parties and people would often genuinely forget to even wish me a "happy birthday" because it would slip their minds amidst the graduations/packing for vacation/travelling. That was before social media and it wasn't as common for everyone to own a cellphone.
@@colleenquinn8154 it's slang for non binary. which just means someone who's gender identity doesn't fit into the usual binary of male or female (i hope i didn't mess it up lol i'm just repeating what my enby friends told me)
I SO feel you with the birthday thing… my birthday was always like ~3 weeks after school started so typically when we’d have our first tests 🙄 so happy to be done with that
My only warning about the storage is to not store photos! I lost my family photos in that eco lifestyle box and cried for 10 minutes. until I remembered to just recover the save before it happened 😂
as someone who plays with gardening and collectibles a lot,, these backpacks are super helpful!!! I like keeping all my things organized,, and it’s a super pain going through my sims inventories looking for my stuff. this is a much better choice compared to the treasure chest.
I have a family I play with a teenager that I got to active school with, and usually I have her do other stuff during lunch because there's just too much to do in a day. Having the lunchbox be able to grab quick meals is great because I won't have to waste valuable time I could be studying or pranking the toilets just to wait for the lunch person to get to their station so I can eat
I feel like it would be cooler and keep the game more challenging if you had to stock the lunchbox with food and if it was all gone, or even spoiled, you cannot get snacks out of it. But I love more swatches can they fix and add more 😭
The New backpack swatches are soo much fun, as someone who plays with families and a lot of kids in the Sims 4 the bags just didn't have enough personality, but now with the new swatches you can add more little details without it seeming repetitive.
If it's possible to put photos in those backpacks, than it will be an AMAZING tool to oranize the best and most important pictures in your inventory, so they are not weirdly stacking in eachother. Seems to be handy in long legacy challanges. Overall organizing the Inventory of your sims WITHIN the Inventory of your sims is such a blessing in my mind
RVSN has had a toddler lunchbox mod forever that works exactly like these only just for toddlers. Bizarre that toddlers can't use the base game one. Also... why is anyone complaining that this item wasn't paid content locked in High School Years rather than getting it for free for base game?
i relate sooooo much, my birthday is usually always on or around the first day, my first day of junior year (last year) my whole family decided to show up in front of my highschool (on the first day ) dressed in onsies and had balloons and SCREAMED happy birthday to me, never been more embarrassed
This SDX drop is genuinely super cool. I almost want to make an after-school club community center with all of this? Like imagine a lineup of lunch boxes and backpacks ina a coat room, and then use the signs throughout the building?
As someone who uses the base game bathroom door a lot ( I do use them in houses I build ) I really like the toilet more than the male/female. Time to go download the new stuff lol
I totally feel u Simsie with your birthday being on the first day of school My school starts on the 7-9 of August and my birthday is the 8th....I also hate when the teachers tell the class it's your birthday then they just all stare at you, especially in my choir class we have to sing Happy Birthday whilst the birthday person stands on a bench conducting the choir. P.s. Luv your videos they always want me to start playing the sims after a while.
The thing that now really angers me with this type of stuff is learning how easy it is for them to do Once LBY showed us how you can easily just go into and item such as a bush and make it work like a toilet I’m not like okay so this was an easy thing to do for items like the picnic baskets already… and I’m sure then having it so sims will eat that during the day like a bagged lunch would be the same level of difficulty for them
Yeah, I feel you. I'm don't really get people getting super excited about it since it's something that should've been in the game a long time ago and the sims don't even get an option to wear the backpack, it just a treasure chest or a folder in the inventory
@@Lynn1109 oh I didn’t realize the lunch bag was a parenthood thing I swear older packs I forget what’s part of them because I have been using the features for so long

I hope they fix the lunchbag because I need a way for toddlers to grab a quick meal on their own.
Exactly. Every time I have to open the fridge and take the food out so they can eat. 😂
Do you think they can use it if you place it in their inventory though?
I sometimes like to use Frigidare Refrigerated Display. Costs 346, and you just place all meals onto the shelves, the toddlers can grab up their food.
I saw in a SatchOnSims video if you put a gourmet fruitcake in a toddlers inventory they'll never complain about being hungry

It would have been nice if the old lunchbox got updated too with new colours and it also worked like the new one does.
yeah!!
Someone will probably make a mod for it in the meantime, but I hope Sims team updates the old one soon
I'd love to be able to store lunch in it and have it last much more than the tiny hours it does now.

The New backpack swatches are soo much fun, as someone who plays with families and a lot of kids in the Sims 4 the bags just didn't have enough personality, but now with the new swatches you can add more little details without it seeming repetitive.
Now it’s time for them to make a functional picnic item! that we can place in parks and put on our sims’s inventories
There is in the cottage living pack :)
There are at least 2 picnic baskets in cottage living and they're both functional :)
If it's possible to put photos in those backpacks, than it will be an AMAZING tool to oranize the best and most important pictures in your inventory, so they are not weirdly stacking in eachother. Seems to be handy in long legacy challanges. Overall organizing the Inventory of your sims WITHIN the Inventory of your sims is such a blessing in my mind
RVSN has had a toddler lunchbox mod forever that works exactly like these only just for toddlers. Bizarre that toddlers can't use the base game one. Also... why is anyone complaining that this item wasn't paid content locked in High School Years rather than getting it for free for base game?
Because there are lots of people in the Sims community who are never satisfied and never happy.
i relate sooooo much, my birthday is usually always on or around the first day, my first day of junior year (last year) my whole family decided to show up in front of my highschool (on the first day ) dressed in onsies and had balloons and SCREAMED happy birthday to me, never been more embarrassed
Theres a skull of one of the pack packs. The sims team have been hinting a grim reaper update/pack.
Skull swatch isn't new
This SDX drop is genuinely super cool. I almost want to make an after-school club community center with all of this? Like imagine a lineup of lunch boxes and backpacks ina a coat room, and then use the signs throughout the building?
The new Easter egg theme is death! They put these swatches and hints everywhere!
Possible grim reaper/funeral pack??
THIS CHANGED MY LIFE SO MUCH!
It’s time for the Sims to give us a drum set.. coming from a drummer 🥲
If you can downloads mods it’s a mod out there that has a drum set ☺️
@@amberbowie3557omg do you know a good mod? 😍
omg I've been wanting more backpack swatches and they are functional now?? even better.
I was wondering if maybe the Easter egg could be the BLM on the backpack
Quite a few of the swatches for both the backpack and the snack bag have the red BLM logo so maybe?
which swatch?
@axelandria5760 Most of the non solid colour ones. Look for the red logo.
@@axelandria5760 i saw it on the camo one and the one with the caution tape design on the bottom 9:07
Let’s keep a group that act like terrorist off of the game shall we.
it’s been way too long since i’ve watched a lilsimsie video i forgot how much i love kayla
I think the children being able to use the backpack/lunchbox might indicate an elementary school pack?
As someone who uses the base game bathroom door a lot ( I do use them in houses I build ) I really like the toilet more than the male/female. Time to go download the new stuff lol
I totally feel u Simsie with your birthday being on the first day of school My school starts on the 7-9 of August and my birthday is the 8th....I also hate when the teachers tell the class it's your birthday then they just all stare at you, especially in my choir class we have to sing Happy Birthday whilst the birthday person stands on a bench conducting the choir. P.s. Luv your videos they always want me to start playing the sims after a while.
Isn't the function of the snack-bag the same as the cooling bags? 🥰
You could totally do a "Rags to Riches - on the Go" playthrough where you travel with your lunch box and always have food with you!
The thing that now really angers me with this type of stuff is learning how easy it is for them to do
Once LBY showed us how you can easily just go into and item such as a bush and make it work like a toilet I’m not like okay so this was an easy thing to do for items like the picnic baskets already… and I’m sure then having it so sims will eat that during the day like a bagged lunch would be the same level of difficulty for them
Yeah, I feel you. I'm don't really get people getting super excited about it since it's something that should've been in the game a long time ago and the sims don't even get an option to wear the backpack, it just a treasure chest or a folder in the inventory
Actually the bagged lunch comes with parenthood and the picknic basket with cottage living but yeah it should be basegame
✨let people be happy✨
@@Lynn1109 oh I didn’t realize the lunch bag was a parenthood thing
I swear older packs I forget what’s part of them because I have been using the features for so long
I use the backpack in SO many builds! So stoked about this!!!
i love how the lunch boxes are immediately bugged for toddlers after release, it really says something about ea
