For the Sims Team RE: Life & Death

I've been playing this game since the first iteration released 24 years ago. Before that I played Sim City. I even graduated from one of Will Wright's alma maters. I'm a fan. Some might say "bootlicker", but I get to define what gives me joy-and also how I choose to spend my own money. 

For the past 10 years, a lot of that joy (and relaxation) is found in the Sims 4. I've logged 4,161 hours to-date, with about 25 of those hours dedicated to Life & Death just over the past couple of days. This is the best release since Werewolves, IMO (and I own every single kit and pack).

I have never posted here, but was compelled to leave some feedback to a group of creators who I feel don't get near the credit and appreciation they deserve. Thank you to the team and EA partner creators for building this beautiful, rich world full of things to do, see, experience, and challenge players. The tarot mission is superb. The multiple festivals and challenges are fun. The builds are cool. The build lots...stunning. The Reaper career is fun to play through, as is digging through the crypts. I can already tell this will go in my top tier of packs.

I hope the team knows that for every one player posting constant negativity about this game, there are 100 of us who truly enjoy playing it. I know I certainly do.

    A bit late on the uptake...

    I haven't played Sims as long, starting out with Sims 4 about 6 or 7 years ago. Own most packs (no Star Wars, just won't), and have logged not quite so many (but close) hours in the game. It's a great way to unwind.

    Purchased the Life and Death xpac only a few days ago, having become extremely skeptical of new launches until they've been out in the wild a little while. Simply will not pay full price for mediocre/incomplete/broken content. Expansion packs are $51.99 where we live. Have also been on a Sims break for a few months. Couldn't be bothered to log in.

    I agree with you, this is the best pack since Werewolves (horses & crystals are fun also, just not -quite- the same level). You knocked it out of the park on this one, Team & Creators - content with this depth, creativity, imagination, humor, and style is something I don't mind paying full price for.  Ravenwood is gorgeous. BB & CAS are very well done. Props.

    Also a forum newb!
