Sick and tired of these updates

This is the worst one yet, Ive never, in like 14 years of playing The Sims in general, been this upset. I finally trusted the game and EA and started a whole world, and Im so close to being done with EA in general.

There is apparently a patch but where is it? My EA hasnt asked to download anything. And also, almost any other game will let you play offline without updating, why does EA not?

I am already looking into alternatives for this game ngl, I am outta here if they don't fix this by the time I find an alternative or if this happens again. You cannot make a game that "welcomes" custom content and mods and also break everything every other month. Im done and I encourage you all to be done with this nonsense too

    Haven't had a problem with Offline mode as it can't tell you to update anything. Done so for a long time.

    Reminder you CAN play whatever game you want you don't have to limit yourself to the Sims. I expect most that do just don't play many games outside of it and though there are some simulation games (or just playing cozy games) there's not one that's on par with this (for the moment). Been various games and triple A titles that have had game breaking bugs. With a game liek this and multiple DLC everything getting so bloated not surprised when it starts to get more difficult to pin point most problems.

    Mods in general are already a gamble to use and break ones game though a lot of the online community does use it. Luckily, they did fix the issue with the game not reading .packages properly within 24 hours of the patch. At this point in time, most either left the community or you just been here for the long haul as there's already been so much with EA, since EA as a whole has never had that good of a rep to begin with.

    You can play offline without updating. The setting to go offline is in the app, the three lines in the upper left.

    To add to this, we should not be ok with game breaking updates this often. If ANY OTHER game did this they would be dead in the water. This is crazy, most games don't allow modding and don't have this happen. I expect better from a professional team
