Garbage
Why is EA intent on turning this game into complete garbage?
Every update causes new problems and they break their arms patting themselves on the back when they fix 2 or 3 problems...which they only do to prepare the base game for another DLC.
Just lost months of gameplay in my main - 2nd generation Super Sim with a spouse and new baby - GONE. No mods on, any mods I used previously on that file were only used to cheat two aspiration goals b/c the game wouldn't trigger them.
The DLC are a waste of money and now the changes made to hype another one are wasting my time.
This is exactly the sort of thing to stop people playing altogether.

Unfortunately, it comes from the scramble to change the entire way the game worked at the last minute to keep their release date. They've spent 10 years adding on to a broken foundation.

Even at the start, those first months of release, when we were saying 'this game is empty and broken' and their response was 'if this doesn't sell well, there will never be a Sims 5'. So we bought the stuff hoping Sims 5 would come quickly.

And even though it started out as a Sims problem, Simmers have enabled it for so long by continuing to buy this stuff even though we KNOW it's broken and over priced because it comes with cute dresses or pretty curtains.

The good news is, with so many other life sims in the works for the near future, EA can only improve or fade away. Either is fine with me at this point.

:steamhappy: Have at it.
I wish I could say I invented it but it's an old idiom that, unfortunately, will probably always be relevant.
