I couldn't express it better. I was complaining last season for the unreachable egyptian hospital and all the changes they've been doing the last two years or so.... Multiple currencies, neverending producing tasks, abuse of multiple events, showcases and shops at the same time.... People who like a city building game is usually calm people who don't like such a pressure. The addiction to the game begins when you have challenges but it's possible to get the prizes.
If you (despite having bought the premium pass+) are unable to complete an event and get the building prize, unless you work on it 24/24 hours, take medication not to sleep and wear an urinary catheter not to move from the game.... this all result in no fun at all. The game is not pleasant or relaxing anymore. It's stressing and it produces anxiety.
So when I saw the classic sands event, asking for 9260 plumbobs to be completed, I knew the disaster had no turning back. I quitted the game last week, stored everything and disconnect. I coudn't erase the city. I hope to be able to do it soon. Too many records, friends, efforts, time inversion and money too... I didn't want to download the update to avoid seeing the new season.
But I keep contact with my club via whatsapp and they told me this morning it is a mess, it's not working. I've finally downloaded it. It's horrible. The worst thing they could do to this game. Train and residential daily tasks are not working, but weekly tasks have also bugs. I completed one of the ten tasks showed, so another one from the remaining five was supposed to appear, but it didn't. It doesn't renew the tasks as you complete them.
There's not only a new currency, but three (don't forget golden tickets have become currency).
The market boxes and other dialog boxes don't have the X up right to close them. They don't close if you touch elsewhere in the tablet. You can only close them changing the hand you catch the tablet or phone with, to be able to touch the back button just at the left bottom edge.... Could it all be worst? No, it couldn't.
I don't like this game anymore. Being so difficult and expensive to get everything reduces a lot the gaming joy. Addiction comes when you are able to earn and reach things (with a moderate effort, with normal life, sleeping, eating, working, going out and all that), not when you must die to get them or pay 100-200 € weekly. And then the game simply must end. It's not a game anymore. It's a torture. It's a pity for all the players and our effort that EA has been letting aside in his anxiety for more and more income.
EA has been always in search for big challenges. Its last defy is this one: winning the golden medal to supreme incompetence.
Bye, Simcity Buildit. I can't suffer any more.

I completely agree with everyone here. This game is giving me anxiety. I have played from the beginning. I play to calm myself because I have severe anxiety and ptsd. The nightmare that this game has become is just disappointing I have completely lost track of how many currencies we now have It is way past the point of being completely ridiculous. It seems as if the developers are actively trying to destroy the game
