I have few followers, but occasionally my builds would do pretty good. Put up two builds since this change, one has 20 something downloads...that is unbelievable, then I see the popular now category and some have 15,000 or more downloads at times. Talk about discouraging, this would surely cure any sims addiction :)
The last part I don’t really understand but my Sims addiction has never been about how many people download my houses or sims. I do understand it can be discouraging, but not that it would influence the fun you have while playing the game in any way. I sort of regret this focus on ‘selling’ your stuff (encouraged by the way EA treats that aspect with their ‘YouTubers/influencers/gamechangers are so much more dedicated and important than you ordinary guys who pay for our stuff and play the game in silence’ attitude).
That was really a joke. I love the game and think it is incredible, the potential is unbelievable. I , like many posting on this thread love to build, that is what really keeps me coming back to the game. I've looked for other building games, there are really none on the market. The Sims offers amazing building opportunity, its basically up to the builder and their skills. (keywords "on their skills" hehe, mine are not as good as some) ;) I never emphasized that I was worried about the number of downloads I get, but I sure would like people to have the chance to view what I put out, so many good homes put out even yesterday, and no one had a chance to see them. You have to realize the majority of sims players probably are not even aware that this forum exists, and would not know their viewing choices have changed(my theory)
This change could clearly cure MY addiction to the sims...I guess that's how it should have been worded.
