It makes me giggle a bit thinking the Gurus seem to be having more fun playing AC rather than their own game...hrmmm and now the game changers have joined in the fun LOL.
Yeah I am guilty of getting one of my friends and her husband into the game talking about it while SimGuruGraham was streaming, oops, but no regrets. Honestly they need something new to enjoy so I don't blame Game Changers either. Like with the Sims I never trusted multiplayer, but with AC they just handle it well, but still evil stories I hear with that like how one person chopped all the trees on their friend's island. The terra-forming and pond tool I've been wanting for the Sims 4 for years and different parts of the world having different seasons is so cool. It is just nice being apart of a positive community again where people just want to help each other progress and gift and send fun notes to each other. Makes me wonder if Maxis will try to bring MySims back though to compete against Animal Crossing fairly. With the Sims 4 well not much of a competition and honestly doesn't even reflect the new norm or represent what Simmers are dealing with now. It reflects the lifestyle of the rich and famous and that comes off as more of an insult to the vast community even more now. Teaching Simmers to hoard more with the Sims 4 without consequence is not helping the community and honestly promoting the behavior we are seeing in grocery stores. But I guess pro with the Sims 4 is we never see Sims use toilet paper. Grosses me out watching them cook throwing snot into their food too. XD I'm like Sim wash your hands before cooking. On that note my sister had blue light with hand sanitizer compared to hand washing and it was only 70 % as effective as hand washing when she was in dental school. I do kind of wish a lot of the Sim sinks allowed space for soap in builds. There are so many no no hygiene things I see non-slob Sims do that make me miss the Sims having a cleaning skill.
I guess basically besides that community pack, wouldn't hurt to catch up on bug fixes this year until the economy recovers. Not everyone is going to have spare cash for gaming this year. If a DLC comes this winter how many people can afford it? My state said a second strain is coming this fall so honestly I rather have Gurus stay safe than forcing DLC upon Gurus and Simmers in these hard times right now. Let's get the five year old bugs fixed and patches done in the meantime that have no crutch time. There is more than enough DLC for Simmers to catch up on and gift in the meantime. $800+ is far from pocket change for any game especially for newer Simmers just coming into the Sims 4.
