Disappointment in Businesses and Hobbies EP and 25th Anniversary

The new game pack they just showed as a peek of what they have in store next is just a big ol' rip off. What hobbies did they introduce? Clay. What the game already had. What businesses did it introduce? A tattoo parlor. Wow. I am so impressed I could gag. There are already mods that will let you have a home business. All of this could have been added to an update of previous packs that are so glitchy, that we have to rely of other creators mods to fix what EA gave us that was already broken.

I absolutely feel the BEST way to honor the 25th anniversary of the Sims was NOT to try to put out another flawed game, but to fix the one they have been promoting for 10 years! The previous versions of the game will work on your computer without purchasing them again, I know, as I have all of them and have ran them on this computer that I have played the Sims 4 on since I started "investing" in the latest version. 

And I DO LOVE the game! But the constant bug and fixes/updates that don't seem to do squat is frustrating as all get out! We all spend more time trying to figure out WHAT IS WRONG with the game more than we get to play it! As I watched the trailer for the new EP, my heart just sank. Hobbies implies that new hobbies will be added to the game. There were many in previous versions. You could work on your car. You could sew quilts. You could play music with others (maybe they weren't playing the same song, but in a new update, they could be), but you get my point.

Businesses are another you can already do with mods. So why not just add it to the abilities that Home Chef Hustle, Dine Out or Get to Work added. Why make us purchase another pack?

I know there are bugs YOUR updates to the game have caused. The best way to honor the anniversary of the sims is the PLEASE FIX OUR GAME! HONOR WHAT YOU CREATED!

    I am thinking of creating a retirement "club" that is open community.  Sort of like an Elks Lodge in real life for Elder Sims that do charity, bake sales, socialize and such.  Or some sort of charity community center for elders that do things to have fun and raise money in their old age.  I think this pack may work well for this sort of community center activity.

    Not everyone plays sims 4 on a PC; therefore, NOT everyone has "mods" "cc." Console players like myself aren't disappointed or gaged. No ones force to buy the game packs

    While I agree with your comment overall, the complaint's true focus is on the copious bugs in general - though I think the B&H pack is mainly a sort of the boiling point that prompted it. Therefore, I doubt console players aren't also disappointed or gaged with all the bugs they have been dealing with. I'm pretty sure all of us (PC and console) wants the Sims 4 to be fixed to the standard that most games have: sure a few bugs, but not a continuously growing collection of them, much less game breaking ones.

    Yes EA needs to work on bug, lagging, freezing is at a all time high its all out of control lately adding new packs with three or four more on the way is not helping fix whats broken first I can agree with that.

    I've been live streaming sims and bam crash not once but twice sometime three times before saying thanks for watch but today is another one of those days yes I was feeling some type of way, 

     however I'm still a console player and without these packs my gameplay would be trash and not worth playing sims that was my only reason for my reply pc players aren't the only simmers we all don't have access too tons of free mods (and yes I know some mods cost) everything consoles players get with sims4 is locked behind a paywall money grab, We can all dealing with it until they get it right other choice is to not play sims 4 or pay to play
