So Patrick Kelly made a video, and then managed to convince coworkers to add mentions of online content on their linkedin, convince artists to make concept arts that look like his joke video, and engineers to add easter eggs in the code along with some multiplayer support to the game to fit his joke video, and all that because he was bored ?
Which coworkers??
The problem is exactly that no coworkers confirmed his statements. But people give me links to statements from some simmers who never worked for EA but only seemed to believe that even though Patrick Kelly only had an ordinary job as a helper for the developers of earlier EA games and had left EA that Patrick Kelly still knew what he was talking about. Patrick Kelly's only documentation were some primitive videos which he claimed to have from an unknown Olympus project which he thought was some earlier version of TS4. But knowbody in EA or Maxis ever confirmed this.
And that's the most likely explanation for you ? And still you wonder why people are sceptic and doubtful ? (while at the same time saying they are naive because they believe people with tiny authority :D) Are you really considering yourself higher authority on the matter than EA employees ? Do you believe that with your authority of a math teacher, you're going to convince people there was a widespread conspiracy to fake an online part that involved lots of people at Maxis ?
People in this forum believe anything from any employee in EA because they apparently think that all EA's 8,500 employees are bosses with unlimited access to all information about EA and EA's projects. But in the forum on modthesims.com people were very sceptical already from the beginning. You can see for yourself if you logon and read the long Patrick Kelly thread from 2013.
The page on Reddit which I was given as a link also doesn't confirm anything because it only is a report about Patrick Kelly and his statements. It doesn't at all attempt to judge if his statements or videos are believable or not.
