Genuine question for those who dislike TS4
Why did you keep playing,? Or still buy the new packs?.. Just curious to know and im not actually asking in a malicious way I truly wants to know what keeps you buying and playing ?

I'd disagree with the statement that people who are complaining are trolls and only looking for attention. Yes some are but take me for example, while I enjoy the Sims 4 I have some serious issues with things I'd like to see fixed or removed.
Yes there are people who legit just complain about the game because it wasn't what they wanted, but on the other hand grahams comment above about making a thousand packs and not making everybody happy is kinda blind to game development sequels and is very telling. Anytime a sequel game is made and it drops a ton of features a previous entry introduce, people are going to complain.
Its kind of like buying a car in 2002 with a bunch of new features, only to buy a new car in 2012 and not only did they (not upgrade previous features) but removed the previous features entirely. 2002 model had heating? Not the 2012 model!
For a lot of people they feel S4 is a downgrade and when they make posts like saying "1000 packs wouldn't make everybody happy) it ignores the underlying issues most people had with so many basic features from previous games like toddlers being the biggest.
Now with regards to people who buy packs, I think for some of them they expect them to improve or fix there issues, or to add more game play to make the game more interesting - or honestly they are addicted to buying sims content (yes thats a thing) because it becomes like an impulse. Only to be disappointed its not what they got.
I think really what people don't get is that the Sims 4 was never designed originally to be a sequel to Sims 3 but an online game, which was than cancelled and the development team moved onto the Sims 4 but their mindset was still in the previous games development cycle. Its like when you have a song in your head and despite listening to a new song, your mind keeps coming back to it.
