People got mad when they made The Sims 4 free for a limited time because they "wasted money on the BG".
People just got mad when they made an anniversary hot tub for the base game a few days ago because they "wasted money on Perfect Patio Stuff"y'all are hating on it for the wrong reasons, lol
Sometimes, products that you already paid full price for go on sale or become free, it happens. You think people who spent money on The Sims 2 nearly 6 years ago were getting mad at people got it on origin at no cost?
I think people are upset with the hot tub because that was advertised as the huge new game play object for Perfect Patio. It was the incentive to buy the Stuff pack by saying if you want hot tubs, you need to get this pack. I was also upset when they released a jacket from Get Famous into the base game. Not because I wasted money, but because that was an item that was exclusive to a pack I purchased. I don't think it's fair to comment on things going on sale or being given for free because with most items, you can exchange or price adjust. I was pretty peeved off when I bought The Sims 4 Pets for 30% off then not even a week later it went on for 40% and couldn't get my price adjusted. Sure it's valid to say you shouldn't be upset when a game goes on sale because that does happen. It feels like you're being punished for being a fan. I've bought every Sims game from Sims 1-4 and for the 20th anniversary of a game I've played for 15 years I was given a free hot tub while fans that don't own all the packs had the chance to win a free pack of their choice.
I don't think it's fair to say it's stupid that people are upset especially since EA isn't exactly the most customer friendly company around...
