@muzickmage ... Yet, at one time wouldn't you have been considered a newbie? Newbies need to start somewhere after all. So, I hope decisions are made to gain new players so that the Sims franchise continues. Some decisions will work and some will not--that's business.
I'm assuming Star Wars in the game does not appeal to you which is okay. Yet, it appeals to others. So, I'm personally happy when they add something I like. When they don't, I don't buy them. :smile:
Yes, at one time I was exactly that.... a newbie. And I would fairly respect the arguments from the veterans if EA decided to cater to me... while leaving them in the lurch.
And no... I don't like the idea of Star Wars being added to TS4. Star Wars as a game is great. I downloaded Star Wars Battlefront 2 during the demo stage but never went back to buy to game during release. I can only afford so many games and well... I have my favorites list at the moment.
The problem however, is not Star Wars. The problem... at it's root... is the neglect from EA to fix the many bugs in the game. The problem is the neglect from EA to add better story progression, genealogy, ramance system, and little things that the community would likely darn near jump off a bridge for... like bunk-beds, better color swatches.
We are missing so much for TS4 that the list is just overwhelming. And not all the ideas on the list are ridiculous, or unfair requests. Not for a 6 year old game in 2020.
We keep waiting, waiting, and waiting some more, while EA caters to a bunch of people who don't even play the game. EA doesn't take very good care of the simmers it already has.... how do you think the new players will be treated?
Hmm...
I would like farming, have been in the ideas-thread for that several times. Not into story progression at all as a rotational player but better genealogy, step-parents being recognized is much needed. Think they are doing some sort of low-key...very very subtle... chemistry right now because some sims sims work great together and some sims you really have to work to get the romance- or friendships-bar to move. I hope we will see a romance-pack one day, have been posting in that ideas-thread as well.
However, in my opinion the pack does not only cater to new players. It is right up my alley and will mix well with ROM, Strangerville, Vampires. Jungle Adventures was also different and fun. Expansion Packs are always realistic only so that is what I would expect to see later this year. Nifty Knitting was nothing but wholesome family stuff, it works really well with my stories. It is just so odd to me, I feel like I have been here enough years to be a Sims Player and spent enough money to be called loyal. I have given feedback earlier that for me as a Sims 4 player things can be too ordinary, that I would like to see more fantastical things added.
I would definitely like to see more bug-fixes and I try to help out on the tech-side if I have a save that is needed. Only happened once so far but I click “me too” for every bug I have so that there are stats. Even if the game pack was a different theme it would not have fixed all the bugs or added all the things. It is a bit strange to see so much anger out in the forums while oneself is happy. I get a new pack for a game that I really love. I will still continue to ask for more focus on bug-fixes, that is also why I don’t update my game straight away with a new pack. I like to see what the forum says first.
