Game won't be ending at all....not yet for a long time. EA was just late adding those helpful content. Perhaps once the show ends (if it will that is) with its final season, the game probably will keep going for another few more years. There is still 30 years (season 1 to 29 and some in current season) of stuff in the show to add to the game. I wonder if EA is losing interest in the episode tie-ins as they didn't do a second one for the new year when Not Yet Cleaning event came. They normally only did 2 to 3 episode tie ins per year since the game started.

The simpsons is a money maker. I support event themed scratchers.

You've literally been the only one complaining about the theme of this event. This nonsense about "alienating the half of us" is something you've pulled out of thin air. The notion that you're somehow being ostracized by events like Valentine's and Pride are due to your own personal hang-ups and not EA thoughtlessly failing to take into account the feelings of sensitive straight singles.

You want to see a game dying. Look at Futurama: Worlds of Tommorow. That game hasn’t had a proper update in over 8 months. They’ve added maybe 5 characters in those months. And 4 of them are Nibbler and 3 of his species. And when they’ve added these characters, it’s been 1 every 2 months or so and nothing else gets added. No decorations, no buildings. Nothing.

Tapped Out gets updated regularly with tons of content. Every other month we have a major event & in between that we have mini events, tie-ins or something else. The game is not going anywhere.

Writing on the wall?

I honestly thought the same thing. This game is only driven by capital from players. There would be no game(or a current, continuously updated game) if the players no longer have a reason to spend. Higher level players, the “whales”, that freemium games rely on are no longer spending cash for donuts. Farming is now practically all that’s needed to collect enough donuts to buy update to update, premium content. I mean, unless I’m way off assuming most committed players finally found how to farm, I see no real long run for TSTO. OR... They could release some other currency like duff beers as another fiscal stream.

This is weird though. We beg and beg ea to add more land, make donuts more accessible, let us capture our towns easily instead of screen shoting section by section then compiling them all together. But the second they do I feel like the game is ending ha.

The point that never seems to be mentioned is this. The game continues to pull in new players. New players buy donuts. We all did. And with all of us old timers talking about farming and buying everything the new players want that. And they want it immediately. How many threads have we seen from people whining they have been playing 2 weeks and don't have a 1000% multiplier or 500 million igc. So they buy donuts. As long as new players keep coming, and the old players dangle carrots for EA its a win win. They toss us features we want and the new players have to get them now. So they buy. In these times any game making a reasonable and steady income will be supported. And... We all got a yellow submarine!

Yikes! I thought you were joking about this before.

Anyway the game is fine. They wouldn't keep rolling out new things if they were going to kill it soon.
