Comments on: The Beginning of The End for The Sims 3

It’s weird thinking that The Sims 3 isn’t going to be getting another EP or SP. I remember coming on SimsVip to see if there were any news on Island Paradise, Into The Future, and Movie Stuff.
I didn’t really get the chance to play The Sims 3 (on PC that is) because I wanted to wait for The Sims 4 to come out, as I brought The Sims 2 literally just as The Sims 3 was being announced (urgh!) Luckily, I spent five years enjoying and exploring game play in The Sims 2 and all the EPs and SPs.
I wonder what The Sims 4 will bring in 2014 (if they decide to delay the game to 2015, I will not be a happy Simmer.)

Everything comes to a end I guess. For me the ending of Sims3 hasn’t been the best, I’ve skipped out on every SP and EP in the last several months. Somehow the final offerings just didn’t spark my interest.

I’m still on the fence about Sims4. I may quit the series here. The last I heard Sims4 was not offering CAS on objects, etc… That is the one thing that I LOVED about Sims3, I hated how prior all sims were wearing the same stuff, their homes were identical inside etc…, unless you used CC.

So for me it might be a double ending. I will keep an open mind and check out Sims4 as more comes out. : )

“carnival and theme park EP, OFB EP, Freetime EP, and maybe even an outdoor activity EP. I would have even preferred a farm EP”
WHY in the WORLD aren’t you an exec at EA? WHY?
This is no irony. They should totally have hired you. (BTW, I’m interested in ITF as well, but, why not a few more EPs based on these ideas that you’re not the only one to share, BTW?)
Anyway… We’ll have hopefully that kind of stuff through store… They’ve started with farm content, plus the versatile cash register recently. Let’s just hope they get inspired by your suggestions for the next PCs…

Same for me here. My wallet hurts. I don’t wan’t TS3 to stop its development to start all over again. I’ll stick to it and hope the store team will release (like often recently) very good stuff.

It’d be nice if they would patch some of the long term bugs we’ve had.
Instead of focusing on store stuff.

I didn’t say you weren’t, lol. I notice we have a lot of vocal players who aren’t looking forward to Sims 4 though. I’m not one of them. But I get why the vocal opponents aren’t happy. They don’t get anything new in their chosen game once it ends outside of CC. Me personally, I’m happy it’s a fall release and I can’t wait for Sims 4, the more I read and see in inches and ounces I like. They seem to be fixing all the annoying things in Sims 3.

What I’m reading into this is if EA is continuing with premium content. They are expecting us to patch forever and a day just play store stuff. Unless they just put all the coding into the last couple of patches, for me two or three more patches is my limit. I’m not planning on having EA bomb my game out with their patches.
