I thought it was a bit strange leading up to Sims 4 release that so many guru's would have these live sessions showing off the game before its release. Now suddenly they are saying they can't SAY what is or isn't going to be released. I think they know they messed up the game and they tried awfully hard to sell it emphasizing how fun, cool, and weird it all was. I'm totally not buying the silence. So which is it EA, either you can show off up coming features or you can't. Seems you CAN show and tell when it's convenient.
Totally agree.
I'm really glad we've finally had an opportunity to come together and air our grievances and I find it illuminating that no one has popped in to try to placate us-theres not even an attempt. As far as I'm concerned there lies the issue-because it's not convenient to them they belittle fans like us and ignore us in the hope that we will 'get over it' and alter the way we play.
To those of you who say you are giving up-please don't! Unless we campaign for ourselves then we will never see proper family in a sims game again-they will assume we don't exist because it makes their lives easier. And at this point i think it's even more important for us to stand up and be clear with EA. They NEED to know that loyal sims players are abandoning sims4 for a GENUINE reason and that if they addressed us and FIXED things then it's SALVAGABLE.
I've often said I feel sorry for the gurus over the lack of budget and being put between a rock and a hard place over this stuff. But I wish that someone, anyone, would acknowledge us properly. Quite simply from a customer relations stand point this is unacceptable. I've tried to highlight this thread just in the tiny glimmer of hope that we would be taken seriously. I guess that's too much to ask. I understand they have to fight things out with their bosses and pr departments-then take the wealth of feedback all over this forum, Facebook, all over the place begging for family play and show them the depth of feeling here. We are trying to do this in a nice way to show exactly what the issues are. We aren't unreasonable people-sure those rude people exist, but we aren't despite being extremely tested by the attitude at EA.
