So in short EA/Maxis doesn't care about consistent players (we knew this) and are looking to get new players who may spend $60 in the moment on the slim chance they'll spend $300 on the game (was pretty clear as well). Just me, but the logical thing to do would be make your base community happy, knowing they have positive things to say about the company/game and that would also help others make their decision on buying the pack. I recently had a conversation with my co-worker who isn't a Sims player. They asked if they should buy the pack with Star Wars coming out as they're a fan of the newer movies and my response was save the money. Once I explained they'll have to buy the base pack and then this pack that will only have give or take 2-3 hours of story line attached (based off of StrangerVille), that might become 6 because of all the stupid game breaking glitches they decided they weren't going to buy it. Seeing how un-supportive of this pack the community is I do not see a crazy amount of new players first buying the game and then spending the $689.66 (not including the base game and new pack) to "complete" the set. I know if I haven't played since the Sims 2 days I would not be spending my money on this franchise if I were them. Just imagine if EA/Maxis actually gave just a few of the things players have been asking for and then released Star Wars, I think the response would have been very different.
