Do you realize how often it has been said that the prices have been set and they have to keep them that way? Also, the current updates may not be the fabulous, sparkling things you want them to be but at least they've released material other then hats.
1. The RPS game rewards exploration in finding the NPCs and gives players a reward for their exploration, its also a more creative way to get hats.
2. The railroad tracks, even if they do look a little sloppy, added an actual use to the draisine instead of it just being a semi-useless accessory to use inside your house.
3. I find the people trying to role play schools and having children odd, but at least the school and so called adoption center get them into certain areas so I don't have to walk into Graal City and see, "Daddy where are you I lost my Teddy!" or "All students to class".
