With the game so bugged, where do you stand on new content?

What it says on the tin. Will/has your purchasing habits in regards to the Sims change/have changed with the increase in game bugs?
  • I am not buying a thing until they fix the broken wants and fears switch. I have not played in months because it is so annoying and ruins the game for me. I did not even get to fully enjoy the pack I bought before that update so I am not about to spend even more money on content I cannot enjoy yet.

    My sims are on hold because the bugs are too disruptive.
    There is no point in buying new packs if I have no desire to play the game because of bugs.
  • the bugs and most importantly the simulation lag is horrible... my FPS drops so bad it gets unplayable pretty fast. Everyone talk about that lag, gamechangers, even lilsimsie, random youtube sims players... i'm not sure why it's not fixed yet. Purchasing more content would mean an heavier game, and more lag
  • To be honest, I’m between the option I clicked and the second one, but critical bugs are always fixed pretty fast (aging one or post-Snowy Escape crushing issue). So it’s not like game is being left unplayable. I know some players claim it is unplayable right now. It is not for me. I’m currently on PS5 so obviously no mods and cc included. I saw comments saying that many issues comes from using third parties add ons, I will not say anything about it as I simply don’t know. But since I purchased the Sims 4 back then on PS4 in 2018 I had literally no issues that prevented me from playing the game or made me rage quit. Was I annoyed by some bugs? Sure I was, but nothing that could make me leave the game. So I would say that I keep an eye on bug fixes but they are not game breaking for me and I’m enjoying game as it is and will purchase next dlc, unless it’s something that I despise like living in the countryside (that’s why I didn’t buy Cottage Living).

    Been a while since I watched Army of the Dead, but from memory I so wanted a guest appearance by Gort during that scene. I mean Michael Rennie (actor who played Klaatu in The Day The Earth Stood Still) would've been great as well, but considering he was dead at the time, a giant metallic, earth destroying robot would've sufficed. :D

    When I buy a game, it should be playable without needing mods!


    Exactly! I chose to start using mods in my game in order to make Grim a playable character, and for some additional conveniences. At the time I didn't need to use mods, I could've just used cheats, but mods made things easier. Now it's like I don't actually have a choice to play with or without mods, and that's not good enough.
