StrangerVille - My honest review
I was one of the lucky simmers that got early access thanks to the EA Game Changer program. https://twitter.com/AlbaWaterhouse/status/1099705890217832450 I really wanted to like this Game Pack ...

Great review!! Its so disappointing to see the amount of people here saying that its NOT something they would really like, but they are still buying it (if you will like it then of course get it). They produce content based on what you do with your wallet. If people keep buying packs they don't like or lackluster packs just "because" then the company will think they are going in the right direction. They do not read every post that says "I don't like it, but I will still buy it"....what they do see is numbers. When people are buying things despite being displeased with it then that is just going to make a dev produce more of the same......this is one of the biggest reason that this iteration is so bad compared to the previous ones....
I get wanting to own every pack, I used to be like that, but you have to show some self control if you want change in your fav game/franchise.....otherwise things will always be the same, with the same disappointing and lackluster packs released.
In almost every poll they have done Farms (with horses and crops, sheep etc) and occults (uni too) won for gamepack preference by a landslide (someone even did an unofficial poll here a few days ago with the exact same result) and yet they continue to ignore what consumers want (its literally easy money, your customers are telling you what they will throw money at) and one of the main reasons for this is because they know certain people will buy it no matter what. When Grant first pitched this idea 2 years ago, the overwhelming majority told him they wouldn't be interested in this and yet he proceeded to spend company money, time, and resources on it. This is because he knows many people will still buy it even if they are displeased.
