You know, I'm starting to believe that all the people who eternally ***** about EA's practices, but then go out and buy the game day one, are merely victims of Stockholm Syndrome.Nurb said:

Ah, remmeber when all these features and more were free and in vanilla game? remmeber when moders could add 10 times the content of the game, for free? pepperidge farm remmebers.

Huh? What steps forwards? I don't recall anything like that, just one long DUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUUHHHH...The Great JT said:
All rumors of EA's intelligence are structly heresay ans idle gossip, propaganda cooked up by their PR staff and delivered...badly.
It's getting to the point where I'm just tired of being depressed by the whole thing and I actually think I'm more impressed. Impressed that EA can just be so forward about trying to screw people over. Impressed by the fact that they can implement so many horrible awful ideas, and still get people to buy millions of copies of their games. And make no mistake, they will sell MILLIONS of copies of The Sims 4. We know they will. And EA will make money, they won't learn a lesson, and they will just keep doing horrible things for the gaming industry. But we'll let it happen. So what does it matter.
EA atually has done something decent recently. All owners of the Sims 2 have received the ultimate edition for free, which means all DLC. Granted the game is about a decade old, it's still much more stable and content filled than 3.FalloutJack said:

Ah, so the company motto is "Better late than never", eh? My advice to those guys is to embezzle now and save time.Elfgore said:

And you know, I'm one of those who mourn for old Maxis. Pre-EA Maxis...
FUN MAXIS
yeah I really liked that they did that, it doesn?t make up for things like a Sims game with a premium membership, but it is still a step in the right direction.Elfgore said:
Load-between-lots is a dealbreaker for me. If this is actually confirmed, I don't care what else they do, I'm not buying. Every Sims game has had horrid load times; Sims 3's only saving grace was letting you access the entire town freely.
Origin is giving away The Sims 2 Ultimate Collection when you redeem a product code type I-LOVE-THE-SIMS
it's like sim city all over again... will they never learn?
hope they go outta business some day.

Who cares? We got The Sims 2 for free with every expansion. It'll probably have more content than Sims 4 even after every expansion, microtransaction and premium-exclusive item is released.
