Forever Free Packs for Everyone
The Sims 4 is a 10-year-old game with over 90 DLC packs, and EA will likely keep releasing more for years. Competing life-sim games like Inzoi and Paralives offers much of this content in their base ...

Wonderful ideas you have here! I personally don't see that happening, tho they have given some packs away for free in the past but all those they gave away for free, I already paid real money for.
I don't do Occults, so a free pack with that, I would not want forced upon me to accept. There are also many players who have every single pack, ep, gp, sp, kits and the free xmas items they gave out nearly 10 years ago.
It has only been since 2023 that I stopped getting packs when they were 1st released. Now, I am 5 EP's behind!!! 2 of them I would really like but not with the issues that the release of those caused in my game. Not having those packs but having the issues tells me they are base game changes that went awry. I invested in Maxis/Electronic Arts now, 25 years ago, literally and even with the new Inzoi out, which is so buggy that I couldn't find many positive reviews about it after the day of release. The system requirements alone, with the economy the way it is today and so much uncertainty about the future, I will remain happy with Sims 4!
Besides, when I saw inzoi reviews from some players being delighted by the fact that they ran someone over in their car - in the inzoi game - and literally did the "ROFLOL" and they didn't know who she was and still thought it was hiliarious, starting a fight with someone they don't even know just for fun??? really??? ..... no thank you, not playing Inzoi! There is enough violence in the world today, don't want to play a game where players are violent for fun , in an open world like we really live in. I truly believe that if one can behave that way in a open world game then it's likely one would behave that way in the real open world. Scary!
Of course, you will not see that in Sims 4 as Sims 4 has no cars anyway and Sims fight in this game as well so that is being a little hypercritical to say the least and there is no open world anyway. I been a Sims player from the beginning in the early 2000's and it was a fun one up until the Sims 4 which for was a disappointment. InZoi was not created to kill the Sims series only to give choice as both can co-exist. Now the only thing I see what InZoi is doing that EA/Maxis had not done was offer features not offered in the base game in the Sims series and not sold in later packs. Both programs have different goals and there were other programs that were created and did not make it, but many knew this was coming and wanted to happen to have a choice as many did not like road EA/Maxis has chosen and this is part of evolution.
