So is this officially the worst year for sims 4 ?

I think it's been the worst year for them. I liked Tiny Living, LOVED Eco, didn't buy Knitting and I'm loving Journey to Batuu. :D So I'm basically the opposite of what most people like. I've also never bought so many packs in one year and it's the first time I haven't waited for sales (minus ROM). It was personally the best year for me, but I can see how it's been bad for them. It's been a PR mess and it started with the 20th anniversary. This year probably could have been better and more forgiving if they hadn't handled some of the issues that came up so poorly. They tried to keep everything going and "big surprises" but some of that maybe should have been postponed while they dosed some of the community fires.
