The problem is is that TS4 was kind of a rushjob when it first came out. Now with all these additions, it's not as bad as it was, but it's still got a ton of room for improvement. The other problem though, is that EA seems to be going for quantity over quality and they're calling that improvement. It really isn't.

The publisher just seems to want to see numbers they don't care about the quality. I think the studios care more about the quality of the product but when you have CEO's taking 5 gran a month of salary plus bonuses what can you expect? The studios and their games often don't have the budget that they should and then EA makes them rush things for release to get money faster.

So it's essentially corporate greed then from the EA higher-ups?

I mean....it's EA, nothing really new.

Hmmm, more content versus features, I really do not care for the content as much as seeing some worthwhile features coming to Sims 4 like creation tools which this game for me sorely needs as I am tired of waiting for EA/Maxis to provide. :( Won't matter for I will be playing MechWarrior 5 shortly.

Free content sounds encouraging. Even with their frequent 50% off sales, I find it difficult to find content that I'd want to purchase. Especially if I consider many peoples' comments about actual gameplay content and/or the many bugs that manifest.

I would probably only be tempted to purchase most of current content if it was marked 75% off... and I don't see it getting marked down that much until ts5 is about to be announced.

I'm sorry but this doesn't sound good, it looks like Sims 4 is ending next year..
It's sad though, gamepacks were the best things of Sims 4
And the majority of 20 content drops are probably the packs for console that already on PC, so don't get hyped..
Sounds like the Sims 4 is ending..if just EA wasn't so greedy..

Kate mentioned a week or so ago that TS4 still has years of content ahead.

The keyword is at least. There could be 30 content drops for all we know.

So that's 20 content drops across all playable outlets. That doesn't sound like much more than what we've been getting every year already.

3 months without DLC and counting. No clear sign of a future since day one and I am sick of it. Just wish they could talk to us. Sims 3 team did, something has changed horribly since those days. Got a update sure but still I'm talking DLC not free content updates.

20 ?

You can already remove 5 "content drops" :p

GP02 Spa Day (Console)

SP05 Movie Hangout Stuff (Console)

SP10 Bowling Night Stuff (Console)

SP11 Fitness Stuff (Console)

SP14 My First Pet Stuff (Console)

Get Famous is out Tuesday on Consoles and Movie Stuffpack is in March. It got leaked accidently.
