I agree with what you said but I find this kind of thing to be deceptive and frustrating. I don’t mind spending a few bucks for new content (I was happy to buy some sim cash to get the piano hobby), but I think they should be more upfront about it, either you will pay with time or with money but not both.
Demanding money for something that I invested so much time in felt like they were asking for ransom on the time I invested. Like pay now or you just wasted 3 days baby sitting your sims for nothing.
I am level 50 with four sims. I tried to finish the advanced dance quest: it's impossible. Double llama zoom tasks: impossible to finish if you work or sleep. And I need both, sorry EA.
Today in the trait store the possibility to buy the atlethic trait appeared: I always save my tickets just in case, so I bought it and stopped played this impossible quest 12 hours before the end (with 4 steps still to go!).
But what's the sense of proposing to buy it during the quest? Make us spend money to buy tickets to then buy the trait?
I will not play the next quest if it's similar to this. Waste of time.
