How is your engagement since Quarterly Teasers have stopped?

Teasers definitely keep me more engaged, as they give me something to look forward to, which in turn motivates me to commit to my story lines and create really complex and dynamic characters. Without teasers, I can lose interest in my Sims and their families a little more quickly (but that may just be me!)

We can't answer "No different?" I mean, it's not like we always had quarterly teasers. My engagement level did not change when they were introduced, and it did not change when they were cut. Honestly never cared about them one way or another. If anything, the community speculation got annoying.

Less engaged and less playing the game. I have a hearing disability so I don't watch the live streams. I don't want to play the game until I know what's coming.

Precisely this. So agree.

Less, for sure. I was so excited for Seasons but since these changes have happened my interest in the game has fallen dramatically. I would rather have a quick little teaser to have an idea of what's coming up. I have no interest in sitting through all these livestreams. The devs won't be able to tell us anything no matter what platform they are on so they might as well stick to Twitter.

90% of the times I was dissapointed with the teasers because they were just showing stuff packs.

Forgive me, I don't want to put you on the spot, but I do always wonder when I read this: why don't you want to play with what you have unless you know what you'll have next? :/

I miss the leaks more than the quarterly teasers.

Less engaged there is just nothing to talk about now without teasers or leaks of information I just find myself losing interest. I don't care to watch Guru's (or anyone for that matter) play a game so the Twitch streams they switched to do nothing for me. Why their goal was to get people to stop talking about future content I will never understand.

Every time I have my sim talk to someone she learns the comedy skill and I don't like that skill being something my sim knows. She can't talk to anyone which cuts out a lot of game play. Seasons took away the need to wait for the neighborhood plants to grow to harvest stage. Now some don't even grow until later in the year. I don't want to age my sim up to adult so she can't complete the cooking, mixing drinks, or any other aspiration that needs an adult to complete. So more game play is cut out. I can't play with pets because I have the cat litter box bug. I can't play in the world cat and dogs came with because of all the animals in the neighborhood suffering.

So in my games, I build houses. With only one style of stairs I tend to build single story houses because the stairs take up too much room. There's only so many ways you can build single story houses, and I've built them all.

If I knew there was a carnival, farm, or resort pack coming, I could build with that in mind and learn the skills I think she'll need to know. If I knew that there was a steampunk stuff pack coming, I could build with that in mind and plan a personality for my sim in the skills she would learn.

That's my reasons, other people will have different reasons but the above are mine.
