Lol. What's the point of buying packs if they patch in all the selling points of EP's in for free anyway?
I just can't anymore with their plum practices.
What's the point of buying a movie ticket if they just air the movie for free on tv 3 years later?
EA, simultaneously the greediest company that charges too much, but also how dare they give away content for free that I bought 3 years ago.
Who cares? How does it affect you in any way if a calendar, which is most likely just for schedules and not holidays, was made free 3 years after it was introduced?
I wouldn't care if the entire pack was made free. I bought it 3 years ago, I've more than made my moneys worth since then. Somebody else getting something for free 3 years later had absolutely zero effect on me, and to pretend otherwise is silly.
It's not because of the calendar only. They did this with objects and hairstyles in the past too. It's the idea of them 'giving away' content people paid for. Not because it is ''just a calendar''... Where does it stop?
If this thing was supposed to be Base Game, they should have patched it in immediately for free for everyone, and not use it as a marketing feature for the Seasons EP itself imo.
Fine you don't mind, but I surely do.
Okay, but tell me how it affects you. This isn't something only the sims team does. Tons of games offer content for free that was once paid.
You paid for content 3 years ago. One tiny aspect of the game is being made free, and more than likely is just to view class and work schedules, which should've been base game to begin with.
So why do you care if one tiny thing becomes free for people 3 years later who may be too poor to afford it?
Game companies do this all the time.
I picked up the entirety of grand theft auto 5 completely free because of a promotion they did.
Every single expansion pack in world of warcraft is free except for the latest one Shadowlands. Once a new expansion is released shadowlands will become free.
The fact that ''it doesn't affect me'' does not mean I (or anyone else) cannot have my own opinion on the matter.
It's not like it's going to change because I have the opinion that I have, just saying.
