I actually just went and checked and I got the greenhouse for free as part of the Best of 2012 compilation by playing the DD/Complete a set. I didn't get it until January 2014, but it was free. :) I have pages and pages of free stuff from the store. Not single item things either. I got so many sets free it's not even funny. You cannot compare the store to the stuff packs because there's no way to get any stuff packs free.
I just can't....lol
When the Sims 3 was the current game it cost money. The point again is I was using it as an example of how Sims 3 was broken up vs how Sims 4 is broken up now. Who can say what we will get for free when they move on to Sims 5?
I don't know how much more clear I can be. I am literally getting a headache trying to get people to understand what I am saying versus just attacking me with how much the Sims 3 store is great.
The greenhouse should have been included in the Season Expansion and just because you got it free two to three years later doesn't make it okay because many other people paid full price even if they were happy about it.
I get what you are saying, if it helps @keekee53 :)
I also get what others are saying as well. I tend to think ts3 store was the start of what lead to MFP. It has things like you mentioned that echo how ts4 is being handled.
I also get why people are saying it wasn't quite the same due to, with some patience admittedly, being able to buy 90% of the content one off if one pleases and getting stuff free with ad watching and complete a set stuff.
I for the record am not the biggest fan of the store myself, I only recently started considering getting stuff from it because ts3 is looking like it is going to be my only Sims game I play for the next long while.
Anyways, yeah I know what you are saying and I happen to be kind of agreeing with both sides of this which is why I've been quietly sitting on the sideline not saying much. Probably others like me who get you but aren't chiming in :)
