I get inpatient too, but the Sims Community is spoiled when it comes to news. Some games out there don't get any news of any sorts for looooong periods of time *cough* Kingdom Hearts 3 *cough*.
Well, it would help if they actually had released a finished game :cough: Then maybe we wouldn't be so impatient for future content, and be so "spoiled."
The Sims has never been a finished game not from conception. If that is what you are looking for - then the Sims really isn't your game. I like the way sims is and how it slowly builds - been here since the beginning and I would never expect or enjoy a finished Sims game when each one came out. It's part of what makes it the game it is.
By the way I have boxes of finished games that sit in the attic - I played them once or twice and they were the same old game - never changing - and always ended. Sims is what you choose it to be by what you add to it. And even what you add to it - is ever changing. You make it's stories - it does not make it for you. It is never ending unless you choose it to be. Whats more all the Sims games I have are not in a box in the attic. Every pc we build for me - they are the only games that are automatically always the first games put on my new computers. They have endless playability and can easily draw me back into anyone of the Sims games I have. Heck I find it sad my sims 1 won't play on my high end pc - but I still have Sims 2,3, and 4 - and never once do I feel unsatisfied after playing any one of them.
Totally finished games always forces a direction toward the end of the thing - and almost always contain things in them I don't like and cannot do a thing about them. Some of them progress too fast through the fun areas and too slow through the horrid ones - never mind get harder and harder to play as one goes up the levels. It's like some one cracking a whip over your head and shouting MUSH, MUSH constantly. That is not my idea of fun. That is about as much fun as spring cleaning, It may be rewarding to get the job or game done - but to play the game over or to do the spring cleaning that comes around every year - it the same old grunge work. I never feel like that in the Sims. It is truly fun and always laughing and seeing the every changing even when the content stops coming is why I am a Simmer first.
