I don’t expect free content. I’m happy to pay for a product and packs that work. What I DO want is to be able to play a $600 game on the console it was sold for before they create and release new packs that the community doesn’t even want and that add even more bugs to the game.
I honestly just come here now to see if there are any work-arounds to the bugs I experience and to complain about stuff. 😂😭😂😭😂 I wish I could come back and be as excited about The Sims as I have been since I played my first save on the first pc I was able to afford in the early 2000’s (RIP The Sims Franchise 2002-2018).
Also, I don’t want The Sims to be a completely realistic life simulator. I get enough real life as it is (lol). I LOVE the occult characters and the lore! I’m disappointed that instead of delving more into the lore of The Sims franchise, they instead are adding STAR WARS lore (???). Gimme fairies! Gimme an underwater world! Gimme a real justice system so I can find the sim that stole my favorite painting and send them to jail! 😂 But mostly GIMME BUG FIXES INSTEAD OF RELYING ON MODDERS SO CONSOLE PLAYERS CAN PLAY THEIR GAMES, OKAY? Give the testers and creators time to put out a good product and to fix issues that pop up after release. I’m tired of basically paying to be a beta tester, and reporting bugs to just have them ignored so creators can create a new pack for release.
SIGH. I heard somewhere that hopes expectations are just how we create our own disappointments, and it feels like that’s what’s happening with this game.
Whatever, I guess. It just makes me sad to see such a great franchise tank so quickly and miserably. MAYBE they’re working behind the scenes to fix all the issues, but at this point I feel like they’ll never fix this game unless we’re willing to pay for updates to make a product work that should have worked to begin with.

I don't want FREE packs. I want them to actually create packs that not only work properly but also don't break existing packs.
I'm happy to pay for Sims content! I just HATE paying for stuff that doesn't work. It's a waste of my hard-earned money. EA doesn't even seem to care. They release completely broken and useless content and don't even bother patching it. Instead, they put their talents to use by releasing "Named Cowplants" in order to get free YouTuber advertising.
EA. Your game is BROKEN. Fix it! Before you lose what few fans The Sims has left.- 5 years ago
I don't like Star Wars (I have nothing against it) and to me it's kinda boring... I tried watching it back in Jr High when my teacher played it but I found it to be kinda boring in the beginning (just my opinion though, and I think it was the first one, I don't remember). I'm not into Star Wars so I'm not buying this pack, either.
So yeah, I'm one of those people who isn't into the new GP coming out. I'll take all the others they've released though. I really want those like City Living, Island Living, Get Famous and Get to Work and everything else because it seems it'd make my game more fun (currently I have one Stuff Pack - Cool Kitchen Stuff - along with two of the free packs which are Grim's Ghoulish Guitar and Holiday Pack).

I find that I am actually excited for this pack and I don't know if the reason is more to do with the idea of a lightsaber dueling vampire, or for the pack itself.
(And I am not usually a huge Star Wars person, I don't have anything against it, but I usually have other things ahead of it on my like list)
But then I am going to have to wait and see what the gameplay of the pack is actually going to be like.
Don't get me wrong, I completely understand the reasons why people are not happy.
- 5 years ago@Psychotps Do we have to give EA a load of money just to see Seasons Change, Pets, Are Sim At Work, and a bunch of other things bugs are the least of my problems I can't even get what I want it is too expensive!

I still maintain that it is fair to pay for packs and additions THAT WORK. Please, EA, make them work.
