I think one thing that is missing in this conversation esp based on the last post above, is that this game now costs nearly $700USD or $1000 Canadian if your in Canada like me (if you were to buy it when its NOT on sale in).
Thats an incredibly steep buy in cost for new players and to be fair the majority of you that DO buy packs usually buy them not soon after they are released or first go on sale (if its something you want vs not) over a period of years of release. A new player? A new player basically has no idea where to start and honestly unless your a grown adult with a lot of extra cash floating around most won't even buy more than one or two packs.
Which brings back the argument why not include older packs now as a bundle (say the new game now includes 3 bundled packs) much like Sims 3 did when it was STILL producing packs. Nobody complained about this.
More so I find it really weird that people would be angry that original 3 packs would be bundled with the base game for new players/buyers because what - you paid full price 6 years ago for them? Or last year on sale for $5? Really?
I think there is a very bizarre social lesson on capitalism happening in the background here, but I'm not exactly sure how to identify what it is lol....
