[XB/PS] Console crashing

It’s unbelievable that a new DLC is supposed to release today, and we console players simply can’t play the game - and EA and the developers clearly don’t care. Let’s be honest: there are fewer console players than PC players. The game is now crashing nonstop, it’s completely broken and unplayable, and they act like it’s nothing.

I honestly believe that if PC players were experiencing the same level of crashing - especially with a new DLC releasing today - EA would’ve fixed it immediately. But we’re "just console players", so I guess we’re expected to wait. Players reported this issue two months ago, and nothing happened. And now, after the last update, the game is so broken that we can’t play at all anymore. It crashes constantly.

I wanted to buy the new DLC, but I’ve decided not to. Logically, how could I buy it when the game itself doesn’t work? And seeing that this issue has been reported months ago with no action taken - I’ve decided I’m done with The Sims. It’s just a waste of time at this point. Every update breaks something else, and on consoles, we can’t do anything about it.

To me, this is the most extreme failure so far. At least before, you could somehow play even if the game crashed during travel. But now? We are in the worst phase possible - constant crashing. We simply cannot play at all. And we have no hope the devs will fix it.

So I’ve made my decision - I’m going back to playing Assassin’s Creed. I’m done with The Sims. And that really hurts to say, because this has been my favorite game ever (I’ve played since The Sims 1). But I refuse to be treated like this. Shame on the developers. This kind of disrespect is aimed only at console players. Because let’s be honest - if this happened to PC players, it would be a full-blown crisis and EA would fix it, especially with a pack releasing. But for us? Nothing.

You should be ashamed. I regret spending so much money on The Sims, only to end up with a completely broken product and no one doing anything. Sony should remove The Sims from the store just like they did with Cyberpunk. Honestly, this feels like fraud. You advertise a new expansion while the base game doesn’t even function. That’s theft. Console players will buy it - and then won’t be able to play at all.
