I've no longer bothered to post and voice my opinion much, or give feedback anymore. Quite frankly it appears all the developers do is pat us on the back and placate us with "we're listening" and then not actually listen to anyone at all. Well, unless the feedback happens to be "give us more RPG elements, and plum to the family or life simulator situations." There is no reason that in depth family elements cannot coexist alongside the questy type stuff so that everyone has something to do.
I don't like this iteration of Sims at all. Someone further back in this thread said this game had become too easy and far too infantile. I often thought that about TS3, and it was imo, it didn't push its teen rating like TS2 did, but this game is far far worse, from the art style to the gameplay. And I don't like Rachel Franklin's "zomg think of the children" attitude at all.
In an interview HERE she likens the "yell at" interaction to the antagonist sim being an "abuser" . Come ON. People take away ladders, they drown their sims in pools, they electrocute them, starve 'em, curse them, set them on fire, as well as all the good things. They've been doing it for years.
As for her remarks on spider sense, I'm not even touching on that. It's the most ridiculous thing I've ever read. This game was ruined from the beginning, to suit the freeplay / facebook crowd, and not the fans who have been with the series right from the start, who want guts to the series, in depth interactions with appropriate reactions, not bro's, ho's and sunshine, fluffy, rainbow lollipop land.
I've given up on the series now, and I encourage anyone else who feels likewise to vote with your wallets and refuse to support it any longer. It might not hurt EA's pocket, but at least you'll be making a statement that you're no longer willing to put up with this type of stripped down rubbish, as well as saving yourself some money.
If there was a "Love" button I would click it 5000 times.
