This is disgusting
This may very well go in one ear and out another but it's absolutely deplorable how some people are attacking the Sim gurus on Twitter about the Eco Expansion pack. If you don't like a pack, you are...

I've seen numerous posts even on this forum, which EA controls, insulting the devs by calling them lazy, impugning their intelligence or other attacks on their character, their dedication to the IP, etc. It is not at all surprising to hear that this sort of negativity is evolving to include threats of violence on platforms that are not moderated as strictly. There are a lot of people in gaming spaces, and this community as well, who feed off of negativity, and that negativity invariably grows into something more malicious.
The Sims also has one of the most loyal fan bases in the entire video game community... which is often something they take for granted and forget about. Just saying.
We're extremely loyal... even when being ripped off by them. The fact that they do almost nothing to try keeping us is very telling... the only thing stopping many of us from saying "good riddance" to The Sims is the fact that they don't have any serious or legitimate competitors in the life simulation genre. No life simulator has ever come close to The Sims... but that could end very soon and I'm sure EA will 100% regret it once they finally get their wake up call.
Every game fandom considers themselves to be one of the most loyal fan bases in the entire video game community. This does not excuse threats of violence. If you don't like a video game, then don't play it, don't buy it, etc. Threatening violence is not legal, ethical, or productive.
EA literally sucks hundreds to thousands of dollars from us in each iteration... lol The fact that we continue paying for all of it proves how loyal we are. Here's a challenge... go back and calculate all the money you put into each iteration... and for a bonus, add all of it together at the end. Then you'll understand my point about being extremely loyal.
