This new ‘feature’ is awful. Although I haven’t updated my game yet, seeing it on lilsimsies’ channel was enough to convince me to hold off until either a mod removes it or EA does.
Even without the pulsating issue its still horrible - what was the need? Why do we have this UI clutter forced on us when there is a whole main menu page full of DLC pop-ups and ads, now we get it during gameplay too. This adds nothing of value for the player, only annoyance.
It’s also quite ironic that this ‘feature’ comes out after the release of one of the buggiest DLC we have had for this series of the game, and then you go and add a distracting icon to try and get us to buy more (many which still need bug fixes of their own)? Maybe off-topic but it leaves a bad taste.
No one asked for this, from the responses it seems no one likes it either, please remove it or give us a setting to opt out.
