Overall, I’m very pleased with this pack without the bugs. I really enjoyed it. But the bugs can render it unplayable and it’s very frustrating to be greeted with so many bugs on your first day with the pack. I also just want to clarify, if I give a positive review, it doesn’t mean i’m untrustworthy. It just means I enjoyed something.

Hello, hun. Ex-QA Tester for Electronic Arts here (was a long time ago though) and later Ex-Assistant Producer (same thing here). The issue is that the deadlines are so tight you can barely breath. Designers & Programmers use design documents to create the game, and the QA Team makes their own test cases based on the patch notes and whatever documentation they may access. The games are tested during development (Better known as Dev QA) and also in a specific QA phase. Even though the QA team finds bugs, if they are not 100% reproduced and the impact is not big enough, and also the time and cost is not worth the fix, the issue will be classified as "Known-shippable". This is what happens to way too many bugs. What you have listed as bugs are issues that EA considers "Known-shippable". Known-shippable is a state where an issue is acknowledged and accepted and decided that it is not worth the time and cost investment for the difference fixing the bug may make. Bugs are also classified in many categories at EA. A are for crashes, performance issues etc, B is mostly functionality and C is visual (typos, clipping etc). Most of the time, C bugs are not fixed unless they occur 100% of the time and the impact is quite big enough. P.S. Excuse possible typos and grammatic mistakes. English is not my main language.

My brother in law did that job at Activision, ended up a producer there too. Bug fixes are often repaired in later patches. If the game is playable and the bug fix would push back the deadline, well, that bug is gonna stay until the next patch. Yeah, it sucks, yeah, it's greedy af, but the deadline is god. Pushing back a deadline makes people think the game is going to be bad and hurts sales. Patching bugs later is a better bet for them, even if the reason there are bugs is because the management didn't give the programmers and artists anywhere near enough time to make the thing in the first place. There is a reason why there is high turnover at these companies.

At worst they realize that they can make money with another version of The Barbies 4, lots for really good CAS and building while the gameplay goes nowhere.

EA and Maxis got away with selling a half-baked game thanks to a significant portion of players unable to play Sims 3, the influx of new players and the world starting to revolve around all kinds of influencers, especially with the game's set target audience (12F). So instead of rectifying the problems properly, quickly wrapping up this iteration, or even canning the studio (last would've been such a typical EA thing), they continued testing the waters... and, well, from a financial standpoint, they sure made the right call, people buy legit anything :')))

@@carmenq7339 I'm not sure they're comparable because unless I'm wrong the open worlds work differently. In Witcher 3, NPCs have set dialogues and actions that they perform and things render in as you approach them (I think). In The Sims 3, other sims are constantly moving about, travelling between places and interacting with each other, regardless of where your family is in the world. Which isn't to say that the issue with Sims 3 isn't actually an open world issue, because I trust people that know more about how games work when they say that The Sims 3 was just broken and that open world that runs more smoothly than that should be possible.

I honestly have to say that I've had different "versions" in my mind of the Sims 4. I pirate the game and I had a version where there were minimal issues. I redownloaded another version from someone else and suddenly all the glitches was in that game. So I am not sure why this would be but I think there is some people's games who are more glitched. So perhaps Kayla didn't experience any glitches like I didn't for about 3 years. I plan on going back to my old downloader as soon as the new game drops in her version for downloading. Hopefully then my stupid sims will stop cooking and drinking water.

🤦 This is why EA keeps releasing half backed packs, it's ok to like things if they're well done. But to lose focus on the low quality of what they're selling us just because it's pretty, shiny and new, proves that no matter how terrible their products are; simmers like you always find way to justify the undefendable. And that attitude affects us all, just because you're a builder doesn't mean you can dismiss the game breaking bugs that affect others. It's like PC players dismissing console players problems, just because they don't have the same issues and everyone has the option to play on PC instead of consoles.

Plus, even if some parts of the base game objectively suck, there's incredible mod support and compatability for literally everything under the sun, for Skyrim especially. I don't know of any other game I could play with 250-300+ different mods active and have it run fine on my shitty laptop.

Another thing I noted: Townies don't have likes and dislikes, so they become revealed at random when you pick them as a client, thus making it not even match the townie. For example if you have a townie who is Vlad a vamp and is a clear goth, but then does he have a random like of 'loves the sun'.....

I realized after a while that I was having a good time playing the actual game my sim ended up proposing and now their fiance's. My problem is in the sims 4 I rarely play the game because the game doesn't interest me as much.

They kept earning nothing & getting complaints which gave them fewer & fewer jobs to do. The only way they found to successfully advance was to select "send alone" which sent the sim away for 12hrs and they came back with a promotion. So it was basically if you want to actually play the career yourself, good luck.

I love the build&buy mode stuff, the furniture is really my style and i use the modular couches and shelves all the time. Youll enjoy the first 10ish days of gameplay, then it gets rough. Client doesnt show up, client has contradicting likes&dislikes, client dislikes your build for no reason, client bugs through a wall into the air outside of the house (and you cant talk to them), the counter for how large an added room can be just doesnt work as a baseline and you have to count yourself or the client will be mad, you wont see some requirements until you enter build mode (like which floor the renovation should be on, you have to enter build mode then exit again to take pictures of the correct area), you get the gig of adding a floor to a 3-story house so thats not gonna work, you get the gig of renovating a floor but build mode blocks you from building in all available floors, youre asked to add floors you already added in past gigs, .... Probably not even an exhaustive list of the bugs i experienced in maybe 50 hours of gameplay? I love other parts of the pack, and the job gameplay could be lovely. One time i would keep accepting gigs at a neighbors house and kept redesigning their house after my taste, room for room. but that was because their likes were the colors white and green and modern furniture styles. other households would just tell me they liked fishing and art and then refuse to elaborate. Thats not a challenge, now theres just a fishbowl in every room i renovated at theirs. There was so much potential there, but it was bittersweet and kind of a letdown.

Sims has always been heavily focused on females though. There's always less content for male sims and obviously less time spent making it. It is blatantly obvious that they're focusing on one group of players because let's get real, the female players are dominant. There's a lot more of you and that will clearly mean that the company EA will focus more on female aspects and sims to make sure they're happier. That's demand and supply. Just a bit annoying to always notice that the female objects get more and more at a drastically faster rate than the male ones. Sure I could put a dress on my male sim if I want but that's not the point here. On another note, they are fairly inclusive..yes. But still have problem with showing other cultures than American, or more specifically white American. That problem was made super clear when it came to the darker skintones..how long did it take them to even start to fix that?

They create to make money, not what, us as consumers, value such as creativity and all that. I understand that, it's just how business is, however much we may hate it. Whatever earns them the most money they'll continue with that. But that still doesn't make it right. If the opposite were the case (non-female players are more focused on than female players in a game), there would be outrage. That's not diversity, but this game prides itself on diversity - that's the issue here. It needs to actually follow through on that. You can't say your game is all about diversity, when there are so many flaws and areas that need improvement, The masculine presenting/male CAS assets issue has been a prevalent issue for long, but people have started to speak up more against it now. The Sims is about diversity, yet EA always goes on about its large female player base. Okay, got that ... but can you stop recycling unoriginal content for non-female sims so all players can create different and varied sims, as your game prides itself on? (*you* is referring to EA). It took a long time until we got the skin-tones update. It should be common sense to just have that inclusion from the get go, rather than it become an issue later on. Since they often emphasize the fact that the game has more female players, I doubt there will be changes to this issue anytime soon. But who knows - perhaps if there is enough noise, or concern about it, they may address it. It's clearly an issue.

@@eniaz803 I'm not saying it's right or anything but I just can't see it changing because they'd gain very little for doing so, only getting twice the workload. Fixing the darker skintones is something that they'll get good press for, something that'll make a lot of people happy. Increasing the variety for non-female sims...just isn't high on the list of priorities. Very few (in comparison to the number of players they have) are asking for it and they don't get any backlash for not focusing on fixing it. That's just how it is. I've played since the very start of sims 2 and it's always been the same. At least now we have more than one alright hairstyle to play around with...that's not just a female hairstyle made available to men as well. The clothes are just not going to change. Ever been to a normal clothing store? See the ratio of mens to womens clothing? Yeah...that's natural. It's supply and demand.

You'd think with how much money greedy EA makes they'd be able to put some budget into bug testing for their $20 DLC...

EA being greedy is exactly why they DON'T budget for bug testing. They didn't get rich by cutting a lot of cheques.

At this point, plumbella is the first person I turn to when a new pack comes out, I love the way she can look at the packs objectively, and for not only PC players, but console as well
@blahmoh80123 жыл бұрын
i just think that plumbella is what sims youtube needed, she's gonna give you her raw and honest opinion and she's gonna give you a good advice. she's not going to try to sell you something she herself isn't convinced with, and even when it's something she absolutely enjoys she points out the things that some simmers won't so everyone has a general idea before they spend their hard earned money.

Honestly I'm pissed about this pack. The furniture looks like tiny living leftovers, everything aside from the separable cooker looks too boring to be worth 20€ (since it seems that sectional sofas are going to be added in later packs). I wish it was a stuff pack focused on the career and gameplay similar to the paranormal one.

lilsimsie normally loves the packs on launch and then tears them later, though, doesn't she =o? (not that it's a bad thing to do! excitement blinds us to flaws, so it's understandable.)
