Though I am not fond of these events, I must say there are various rewards I am looking forward to using/keep using. The recipe is a bit harder with Simple Living as Charming Mushroom is used, but still a great looking recipe/dish.
Maybe events should be a standing optional and repeatable, instead of limited time, and people can do them/repeat them as they want to in their games. Just make the rewards free in the next update for all after so no one gets FOMO. So people who enjoy events can, rewards aren't limited time locked. But I tend to hate limited timed/edition items that we can't get again or get another time—one of my biggest pet peeves in life (not just Sim life), it is probably the reason for the FOMO mentality and/or giving us a complex XD
I agree. People have lives, jobs, emergencies or just life getting in the way and getting their sims event complete is easy to get lost in the madness of life. Rather than requiring certain packs to acquire quest rewards, perhaps a better approach would be to have quest/event rewards that inspire people to purchase certain packs. And if they don't or can't afford to, EA isn't losing anything in doing something nice in the spirit of whatever an event is for.
