March Patch Speculation 2020
Time once again to speculate on the Next Patch for The Sims 4. I feel like that this patch will be big cause I think it will be a Pre Gamepack Patch and add stuff to the base game but I could be wrong...

I don't think we are getting a March patch now. However I'd love some virus related content - face masks etc. I'm sure some people would object but it's obvious and would be fun.
there are thousands of people dying, the stock market is crashing and causing people to loose their jobs with another recession that people are trying not to call a recession because it would cause more panic, that is immensely tasteless and offensive.
Catering to this ^^ kind of sensitivity is why Sims 4 is not a good game. This is a video game. If seeing something in a video game causes you to freak out then you shouldn’t be playing video games.
Thinking about those who are sick, who lost a relative, the doctors and nurses working 7/7, those who are scared for their jobs, I don't think this is being too "sensitive", simply showing compassion and tact.
Any subject can be brought to a game in some shape of form but there is a time and place for that. TheSims has never included real life events into their games though, I see no reason why they would do that now, especially about a tragedy occuring at the moment...
The sims is a life simulation game and pain is part of life. You can't have happiness without feeling pain. If this was the case the sims wouldn't have house fires because those have killed people, they would take out drowning, sickness, cheating, death in general, sadness altogether. I get that people are sensitive to certain things but at the end of the day, it's a game. They are not people they are pixels. If you don't like certain things that are in the game then I would choose not to use/play them instead of telling everyone that can't have a particular thing because it offends you/someone else. We should have more options for our game not less and we should have toggles for people who want to disable things in their game instead of taking them from everyone.
