EA has ruined The Sims.

😠 EA what were you thinking with these wants and fear, passionless job and the bullying?

  • @leftwithbread I read somewhere that they're working on a fix for Wants and Fears, so hopefully that will come out soon. I'm keeping my fingers crossed on this one.

  • What's annoying me at the moment is the constant bickering and mean interactions. It's ruining my gameplay! I've heard so many people are having the same issue too

    Simple answer? this feature was poorly tested or only tested with a specific simmer in mind. The bulling is a bug. I don’t have this bug, but now all my sims are clowns and most the time only tell jokes. I don’t mind these things; I rather have clown as mean sims. (<- It can be a mod issue, since Pre-Patch HSY I don’t played my vanilla save)

    They will fix it but takes some time. They need to be sure that the fix does not create another bug.

    @leftwithbread I don't have any inside information, but I do know that Maxis has separate teams for Sims 4 and the new project that might become Sims 5. The Sims Direct Twitter account sent out a tweet last month saying that they are working on investigations & fixes for some high priority issues including overly aggressive / mean Sims and the Wants & Fears toggle not working. None of that was mentioned in the patch notes for the November update, so I'm keeping my fingers crossed that these fixes will be in the next update. There are some other bugs that are annoying me so much that I haven't updated my game on my regular laptop since July. I only update an older laptop so I can test things.
