how feasible y'all think a package like this is?

I wish. That sounds about right for the entire package considering how old the game is and how much work people have to put in to make it work on newer versions of Windows.

indeed plus also consider, lot of people bought it on DVD already, base game, maybe some expansions . I played it first, on a PC which got a new PSU and OS, it was a game used to test the PSU, alongside Starcraft 2 , and Heroes of Might and Magic 5 (this third one being the lightest i think), then i bought it on some discount, 20 euro i think base game+barnacle bay. There was base game+wa somewhat later. so i should have waited lol

I think the closest we had was a $66 bundle of all the DLCs together but it was only $66 during a huge sale, usually its around $100-200, I sure hope there's another price drop soon

EA doesn't want people to buy this game because TS4 is their cash cow. More likely I think that it gets quietly delisted before it ever sees a permanent price drop. (Not saying that's particularly likely either though)

The $60something sale is a no-brainer when it happens imo, I pirated everything back when I was a broke teenager but I still get so much enjoyment out of the game that actually buying it for that price still felt worth it

Same lmao or like u know , just getting base game and the other stuff from "alternative" methods. I bought on DVD with barnacle bay , now on steam too.

Sims 2 store dunno when it was shut down , but for Sims 3 you got 1000-2000 simoleon , 1000 for stuff pack 2000 for expansionk(it was for DVD version , maybe it's different now). And I don't know how long until it's gonna be available. But yeah from free stuff like Fanta fridge etc I could get like 30-50

Ofc the non free stuff from the store you can get from alternative means too

For ETS2 , ATS I got expansion packs there quite some amount, and I played the Hard truck , 18 WoS series as well which I got too. They feel less greedy? Dunno something like that

I just spent $40 at the Sims 3 store on the Boardwalk and some other junk.
I guess that works too

It's feasible.

You get an insane amount of engaging gameplay with this game, compared to some other $60 AAA title that has limited replay value. This game is over a decade old and there are people who've played it forever still discovering new stuff to this day. There are tons of mods and player-made worlds on top of everything else.
