Every time I load up my game I get a pop up basically saying that I should buy horse ranch. It's so incredibly discouraging upon launching my game, that I am immediately greeted with an advertisement. It's simply put bizarre that I can't enjoy my current game with the current collection of content I own because I am basically being reminded that I could always have more. This needs to stop. The home screen is an advertisement as is, I don't need an additional advertisement on top of an advertisement. I don't want to buy horse ranch, stop reminding me that I don't own it, I am very aware that I do not own it and am very content that I do not own it.

I agree, it is very annoying. Just leave us in peace to play our games without ramming such things down our throats.

I got one too, the first time I loaded the game after installing horse ranch, I got a pop up to buy horse ranch. ? One copy is enough. I do agree, we get enough ads with the home screen as it is. There is no need for additional pop ups.

I'm not getting extra popups? Only the home screen ads?

Not getting any Sims popups, plenty I don't own yet including Horse Ranch. Lucky I guess?Run my sims through Steam, maybe that's a factor.

@Bluegayle do you maybe already own horse ranch?

Yes but I didn't get any before and haven't had any after. Only ads/info I ever get are on the home screen

edited to add: But yes I agree it would be annoying. I do dislike popups for any reason

Huh, I'm not getting any pop ups even though there's plenty of stuff I don't own (including Horse Ranch). I wonder if that's a regional thing? I live in EU and our laws are (thankfully) quite strict considering internet privacy and ads e.g. websites are required to ask permissions on how they use cookies; whether they are allowed to show targeted ads etc.

Ad disappeared for me as soon as I bought something from the sale.
