Rumoured SDX Sleepwear Set

i don't care either way if you make for consoles is ok.

I'm sorry for being informed of the exclusive for PC players and I don't feel superior to my gameplay platform at all.
I hope you all know that EA play subscription for a month is more expensive than one kit.
I've spent so much money and still can't get it all.
Please give back all PC-by mistake-exclusive content for console players which is not due to a technical issue.
Sleepwear? Who cares? They are out of my perception of beauty.

@GalacticGal eh, I don't mind. The way I see it we PC players have access to all the cool mods & cc so it's only fair they get something for themselves. I *do* agree, however, that they should have given a reason why (ie console anniversary, etc).

I have played sims 4 on pc since the first year it came out. I don’t use CC, but I buy all the packs and kits. I’m not going to get a subscription service for the sims 4. I left a subscription service to buy sims 4 and the packs. I own them all, and now they are putting content behind pay walls. Well I guess you live and learn. It’s sad that I was finally going to get a complete set of a sims series….. looks like not anymore. It’s pretty bad when you can’t even buy things outright anymore. I’m on a fixed income now, I don’t rent, I buy things…. Now, I can’t even do that with this pajama set. I feel like I am being punished for buying all the game packs and kits….. now I can’t even buy the pajamas……if they keep doing this, it looks like this may be my last sims game….. so sad….. a few years ago I splurged for a nice gaming laptop for this game. I will probably not be doing that for sims 5 if it is going to be subscription. looks like I will have to be looking for other simulation games.

*cough* PATREON *cough*

EA has surely been observing the aggressive monetization of CC over the past few years. Nothing like new content locked behind a subscription, am I right or am I right?! It's like an unstoppable tumor, and it'll only keep growing.

In the first Sims Summit we were promised an SDX monthly. That promise has been broken. It didn't have to be the pajamas. It could have been anything. I just think EA should stop making promises.

I hate that I'm feeling disappointed when I've been so excited about infants and the new pack. I don't know why I'm so down about it. On PC, I can go download CC pajamas whenever I want.

Hey all,

I understand the FOMO, but here's just a small selection of items that PC players have had that console players still don't:

• Noctis Outfit
  
• Family Portrait
  
• Bare Naked Gnome
  
• Awesome Animal Hats (all PC players got this free)
  
• Mods
  

Rewarding the players with EA Play on console shouldn't be taken as a slight to you if you're on PC.

Oh yeah that's right I had forgot us console players don't have that Family Portrait.

I don’t have the family portrait either because I don’t play sims mobile, and I paid to buy the animal hats, I don’t use mods or CC because, I don’t want to wait for them to be updated, and I don’t want to have to worry about bugs caused by them. I don’t really care for the Gnomes….,, but I would really love to have the matching pajamas, I don’t even mind paying for them, I never minded that people got free clothes and hairstyles that I paid for, or that they are getting a basegame free that I paid for. But I do mind that I can’t even pay to buy the matching pajamas. I feel like I’m being punished. Being a business major who concentrated in marketing, I think this is a terrible strategy. I won’t buy a subscription service to get what I should be able to buy outright. I have paid full price for most of the packs I have bought, and I didn’t really mind doing that. But now I’m being punished for being a good sims customer….. bad strategy in my opinion. If the sims is going to operate this way they are going to lose a lot of faithful customers who have paid to make them successful….

We were not told we would have to pay for a subscription to get the content for the sims 4 when it began., I feel like I am being cheated. Like I am being stolen from….. bad strategy….. a great way to make those who have absolutely loved the sims feel like they are now being cheated….

This whole pajama stuff being locked behind a paywall has made me lose my enthusiasm for infants and and the new EP….I’m upset, it’s bad enough to have a few bugs that they can’t fix, but I figure the guru’s are trying. I hope whoever’s decision this was to put these things behind paywalls feels just as cheated as I do when they lose their job over a horrible marketing decision…

I am on pc and also don't have the family portrait. I wish there was some way to get it in my game. I would even install out sims mobile to unlock it. But this one time offer was never repeated. I wish they would repeat it for All players.

As for the pyjamas, they would definitely have been nice but I can do without. What worries me is the principle. This opens the door for withholding other content from a certain player group based on platform. And that goes both ways. Console players should also be able to get the items created by EA in the list above. I can't think of no reason why this is not available for console players? I thought we all played the same game?

The content has been created. What stops EA from giving it out to loyal PC players who support them for years?
I was so looking forward to this rumored SDX drop... :'(
