Do you think The Sims 4 = Failure?

You can't look at how many people are playing the game at one time, compare it to the number of unhappy posts on the forums, and draw conclusions that comport with reality. Imagine concluding that, because one victim reports surviving a 10,000 ft. fall and no victims report dying in a like fall, that it's safe to jump out of an airplane at 10k ft. plus.

You have to include the players who chose not to buy Sims 4/not play it if you want to get a cleared picture of the true proportion of happy vs sad simmers.
