My game isn't struggling at all on my system. It is or was a gaming computer but more than 5 years old now. I'm not worried about adding on packs, I was worried for Cats & Dogs but it merged right in and I'm kind of over that worry now. The only place I have a problem is in the City. I guess too many things going on and open.. that's why I hope they never attempt open neighborhood personally.
I also like the game play in a stuff pack.. I like the excitement of having something new now and then it's like a full experience to me. The stuff.. if it's only stuff I'd stop buying.. and I love the game. I think they know that so yeah it makes sense that they stick in game play to excite and entice their customers. It keeps people buying who enjoy the game. That's actually good marketing. I do get it's not good for people on a budget that still want that one thing.. like a hot tub. I can see where that could be depressing .. especially if they loved the game.
I really don't see many people complaining about that though if they like the series, the artstyle and other things about the game. Mostly I see people complaining that admit they don't buy, won't buy, and dislike the Sims 4 in general. I do know there are people who have tried to like it.. but you know it's kind of hard to get over that bump if you had that distaste stick in your craw. I would have left this game in the dust at the base game if I didn't like it. I have before and I might again.. not during this run but maybe the next one.
With this latest pack I've seen more complaints. Mine were different than what was around me but I had complaints too. In the end though I bought it and had a great gaming day today. I don't regret that purchase at all. Who knows it might be a turning point as some are predicting. I'm pretty sure though it's just a bump in the road.
