Sims 4 continuously crashes to the point I cannot play

I literally just purchased the Royalty and Legacy expansion pack too. So this is frustrating. But after the most recent update, I can't even get into the game to play. I have tried so many different things, I have created a new sims 4 folder, deleted cache, restarted the game, force quit, restarted my computer. I am using a mac book pro with the M3 chip so I know it's not an issue with my computer. I can also see I am clearly not the only dealing with issues. And evidently this update was almost a month ago, and so far there have not been any responses from the EA team about this other than they're working on it? Guys, its been a month. Do something about this. This is ridiculous.
