Introducing The Sims Direct

This has the potential to be a terrific feature. I sincerely hope this is a sign that the growing number of major bugs are going to get fixed sooner rather than later, or not at all. On the surface it looks better than AHQ which I avoided because it felt cumbersome and not at all user friendly. But this is just a surface thing, is it backed up by a dedicated team that is going to focus on putting a dent in the mountain of bugs? If not it's just an easier way for us to shout into the void.
