I agree that EA has put a lot more premium items up but what is confusing to me (and fortunate for me) is that most of them aren't very interesting. It seems like they're throwing a lot of stuff that either isn't really canon or it's from a recent season or it's not very appealing at all. They'd be smart to offer some more classic stuff at least if they're going to barrage us with premium items.
ABSOLUTELY! It used to be really really hard for me to pass up the premium stuff. So I almost never did. Now, so many of them are just "meh" ... and I pass on them and don't even care.
I'll definitely buy some of them in this event -- but in many cases, I'll pass.
Same here. I am finding it easier and easier to pass on stuff that has little or no enduring connection to the simpsons. I do have to admit that I am still eyeing the helicopter I missed tho...
Agreed. IMHO, it's the FGTQFS factor. The FG game started it, dumping a whole lot of non-cannon premium-priced content during events, and they hold very frequent events. Much of the content would generate small amounts of event currency, then be useless after the event. The Dr Marvin Monroe outdoor office is exactly the same thing FG was doing last year,(an outdoor room) but at least it's used for a quest. In the end, it looks to me that EA tore that page from the TinyCo playbook, and TSTO is much worse for it.
Edit to note this is the very reason I quit FGTQFS. I even had over 1,500 clams when I quit.
