What? another one already. The grim icon only disappeared yesterday! The sims team sure wants to keep the pressure on. So no relaxed playing the sims in december. I realised we would be getting more of those events but I was hoping to get a few weeks in between to enjoy the game at our own pace. 🙁 I miss when the sims was a game that we could play at our own time with no FOMO driven tasks.

I couldn't believe this when I first saw it. Seriously? The last one hasn't even ended yet!!! I don't want to be pushed into gameplay and the UI is annoying me to bits. I hate that it cuts into the screen, opens up when I don't ask it to and blinks. Can't it just be in scenarios where you opt in? Or at least give us an option to opt out. EA, listen carefully, forced gameplay is NOT fun. Let me choose!For those who are excited and think this is fun, I'm happy for you, I don't begrudge you your fun, just let me opt out.

Shouldn't they iron out the issues with reward events before starting another one? Because there were an alarming amount of people who couldn't even play them. Heck, look at the bug reports and see how the game is falling apart right now.

I am so NOT interested in this that I am logged back into these forums for the first times in weeks, if not months, to say that I'm not interested in this.If I wanted to play scenarios, I would choose to play scenarios. I don't. I therefore sincerely hope that this comes with an opt-out (or better yet, active opt-in) option.

Cozy Celebrations Rewards Event Coming Tuesday, December 3.

I hope this time we get decent rewards , the reaper event rewards were seriously lacking , i am another of those who are not interested but i will probably do it just to see what they give out . Plus it means that icon stuck on screen for most of December and quite possibly it not working properly , Last time i kept doing the parts of it and it not registering half the time or resetting to not done

  From the article I posted above,
  What about SDX releases, I thought those were to provide free content and updates!
  Sims Delivery Express drops aren’t going away, but we're always looking for new and novel ways to deliver gameplay, as well as objects and clothing to add to your Sims' lives. You can still expect SDX releases throughout the year as well as new Events to engage with The Sims 4 throughout the seasons.

    I think a lot of simmers already know about this from when the reaper quest started. I tried to give advise about this a month ago and I got yelled at. LOL! 🙂
    The thing is most simmers don't want to mess with their gaming files let alone mods in order to play a 10+ year old game unless it is the only option they have..
    I don't have a problem with your suggestions; however a lot of builders use the gallery and might have a problem avoiding the gallery every time these events occur.
    Cutting features from the game is not a replacement for these in game challenges/ads for most simmers.
    People just want to play the game and buy the DLC when it's right for them... not forced.
    I'm happy that simmers can get free DLC from the in-game challenges/ads.
    Not everyone wants this including me because I can buy the DLC or download cc whenever I want it. 🙂
