Why the hate?

I have literally been playing the sims since day one of the sims.  I was at the computer store as soon as it was open to buy the disks for the sims.  That means decades of me playing the sims.  This name Valairia1 has been on the forums since the sims.

I keep supporting and buying for the sims franchise and i haven't been unhappy. Sure there are bugs and glitches but that happens in a lot of games.  If you hate the sims? why are you buying the sims stuff? I watch youtube creators and hear a ton of vitriol and still the keep buying stuff. If you don't like it don't buy it.

Trolls on the forums, youtube, facebook are annoying me.  I want to have fun and try to provide constructive feedback to EA to fix the bugs.  I am not sure, if all they hear is negative, why they would try to fix or relate to us as a community?  The developers are trying to fix stuff and come up with new stuff.  I am in no hurry to see a sims 5 since i really like 4. So in the spirit of holiday cheer, let us focus on what we love about the sims and give a break to complaining.  It is, in the end, just a game, an expensive game, but just a game

    Me. Still hanging around, and testing updates. 

    But the cart button and the rest of the ads just killed the game for me.

    It's not hate; it's anger.  People are angry because they do love the franchise and do want the Sims to grow and for there to be more content and more editions, but the game glitches are so bad now that becomes impossible to play. You pay for content with glitches that go unfixed for months and years sometimes. There is no other game where players invest this kind of money in it, and are expected to put up with this level of glitches and problems. Any other game that wasn't so beloved would have completely failed and shut down years ago. People wouldn't bother, and players who love this game and have loved this game for so long are angry and hurt by EA both taking advantage of their audience and consistently letting their audience down.

    My my my, how time changes things.

    I'm hopeful things will get fixed and this mindset will return, I genuinely miss loving this game.
