I mostly stopped purchasing packs a while ago. I only purchased home decorator because while I knew the gameplay would be COMPLETELY broken, I knew it would have a lot of build and buy mode objects, which are hard to break. I just didn't know it would completely break sim profiles too or else I wouldn't have bought it.
I should have learned my lesson and not bought anything. I'll stick to that from now on.
I guess this is the most bugs I personally have experienced in one pack and it is disheartening.

@RavenLure Don't worry. You keep buying all these packs and you'll soon start to see just how buggy this game can be. Then again you don't need packs at all because even the base game is filled with problems, with some problems that have been around at least a year or more. Whatever you do, please do not just sit back and accept these issues like so many players do. The reason this game is so problematic is because too many people just completely ignore the problems, simply don't care about them, or they just accept them. If something isn't working properly and we all do nothing but sit in silence and accept it, then nothing is going to be fixed.
Too many people just blindly go along with what EA does, which to me is just as much of a problem as EA's shoddy programming because if we don't speak up then we're telling them we're okay with it which just continues the cycle. We can't all act like selfish and entitled morons in the process though, but we have to speak up and let them know we aren't okay with this.
- RavenLure5 years agoRising Ace@valohim666 I do agree and I do not like 'work arounds' they are not fixes.
I come to the Sims4 to forget about lifes problems and have fun and build. It is no fun when things do not work. So when I get frustrated in the sims I go kill monsters in another game then come back to the sims LOLOL
I think we all have enough life problems and we need an escape and no not joinery to batou lol the one pack I refuse to get. LOL Have nearly all the rest though.. I am reluctantly looking forward to this up coming pack. The list grows longer as each pack is released. I do hope when and if a Sims 5 is released , that they take notes and do not make the same mistakes there.
I love the sims but when you are troubleshooting more than playing it takes the enjoyment out.
Maybe I I should get my Vodoo doll out I got from the Hijinks festival maybe that will help lolol Now who do I poke with it LOLOL- 5 years ago
@RavenLure I see workarounds as a lazy solution, and an unnecessary one. As the players, we shouldn't have to do all these things just to get the game somewhat working. I mean what's the fun in playing if you have to either take certain steps to make something work properly, or tip toe around certain things so you don't have to deal with them? Like you said, it can take the fun out of it.
It's the same for me. I play to try and escape my reality because the one I've made for myself isn't good, but in these Sims games I can sort of live out something I'd like. Lately I alternate between Sims 4 and GTA 5. I got back into the online mode of GTA 5 once it hit Game Pass, so yeah I use that to let out some frustrations lol.
If I were you and you are interested in the upcoming pack, wait a while first. Yeah you might not get to play it right away, but honestly if it ends up being just another mess near release it would be better to wait until it's in a more playable state. I never buy games day 1 anymore, and especially never at full price because while a lot of people like to...ehhh.... I need a nice family friendly word here lol.... trash (?) EA there are so many companies just as bad if not worse. I don't even want to think of a Sims 5, because I've played since the original and they all seem to get worse (in terms of problems) with each new game.
If you want to torment some sims, go watch some Call Me Kevin on YouTube and you can get some ideas on what you could do lol.
