Sims 4: A Disappointment?
I have spent thousands of hours playing Sims 4...the only comparable game to Sims 4 would be 'World Of Warcraft'. This is my offline game...I have about 3 hours 'online' play on my Origin account. Sim...

@ Chicklet453681...you are 100% right when you say, 'But, this is just how it is and dwelling on it and complaining about, isn't going to change how things are done.'
And this is the universal problem with Sims 4. EA aren't listening, they don't want to know! This is business and Sims makes money! Profit wins over creativity everytime. I have been known to complain from time to time...vainly hoping that someone is actually listening. No-one is listening and that's a given...they post big declarations of 'bug fixing patches' and half of the bugs are still there...it's all smoke and mirrors and profiteering. Adding cute animals into this pack is a win-win for EA and will make them a ton of money. The pack itself may be lacking in any gameplay advances or innovations, but throw in some cute animals and you're onto a winner.
I don't believe I've been to harsh on Sims 4...I potentially could have created a tome full of disgruntled posts...I believe the 'SimGuru's' are there to deflect criticism from EA and that is there primary focus. Their secondary focus is to blame 'mods' for everybody's issues and douse the flames of discontent.
After all that...I've actually managed to find a lot of enjoyment out of Sims 4 and the 35 packs I have is enough content for me to be relatively content. Sims 5 will be online based, so, I'm out as, in my opinion, it will destroy Sims as we know it. I'm sure the pretty graphics will encourage a whole new generation of simmers!
This is my last post. Sims 4 has captured me like no other, I lead a whole alternate life through this game!! I am lucky to have two self-built computers with multiple hard drives, which will keep my Sims 4 gaming alive.
I hope Sims 5 does well and proves me wrong.
