Who's pre-ordering Growing Together ?

will be per-ordering next month

I am not preordering, because I want to wait if severe bugs occur plus I have a lot of work to do that particular Thursday/Friday/Saturday. If there are no gamebreaking bugs I will probably buy it Saturday evening after work.

I'll preorder once we see gameplay in the livestream. Assuming they manage to avoid a repeat of MWS, I'll preorder then.

Honestly it's not the sort of pack I can see myself getting a lot of use out of. I am a family player, albeit with occults, but I tend to age babies and toddlers up pretty quickly, because I get bored with them easily. I did consider whether or not this pack might make certain life stages more fun for me to play but I also haven't been too pleased with some of the ageism I've noticed on some Sims twitter posts, and I tend to not reward companies for things like ageism by buying their products. That's just me though, for those who are really looking forward to this pack I am happy for you. :)

@GrimlyFiendish What do you mean with the ageism?

I definitely wont until they sort out EA App. Pointless buying it when you cannot connect to the server.

Just some of the ways on twitter that they've presented elder sims in the pack, like implying that elders don't know how to use technology, and elders are grumpy, and they only listen to one radio station and one type of music. It all feels very stereotyped and ageist to me, and doesn't reflect the majority of older people in real life that I know.

But... my daughter-in-law spent an hour at Christmas setting up my phone the way I wanted it. And I am grumpy. And I do only listen to one radio station, rock n roll oldies. If it isn't The Stones or Led Zeppelin or such, get outta here! LOL.

My point is some elders really are like that. I find it amusing, not insulting.

I'll be preordering...in fact, I may as well do it now, lol. I find it adds to the excitement! I work nights, and i'm generally asleep when games are released, so knowing itll be there when I wake up is fun. :smiley:

Edit: annnnnnd preordered! haha

Yes I'm preordering but I don't really see the advantage to do so because I'm still going to have to wait till 1pm eastern time March 16th. I plan on preordering for both my PC and PS5.
