I was more talking about the fact that playing the Sims itself is not something you deserve in life. EA could have ditched Mac at all and not make a version for it. Thus making it a PC exclusive. Would you still complain that you have the rights to play it?

Now is it the case that I don’t know how severe the problems on Mac are, so I can’t comment on that.

Last I checked, I paid for The Sims 4, just as hopefully you did. I paid (and continue to pay) for a product, it is a right (or if you think that’s too strong of a word choice then reasonable expectation) to expect that it will work, and if it doesn’t it will be fixed as soon as possible.

It’d be different if I expected The Sims 4 to run on an operating system that only a couple thousand used. Granted is Mac as equally used as Windows? No, but we keep growing. Compare the amount of computer games for Mac compared to 15-20 years ago…

So no, it doesn’t go too far. That’d be like saying “Oh I bought a car that isn’t as common, I shouldn’t want it to run.” Any product I pay for, I expect it to work as long as it is no longer considered serviceable (or updated) by the manufacturer.

You said that maybe now they fix the issues that are actually issues for the majority rather than just a few (Mac) people.”

The way that’s worded is implying all they do is focus on fixing Mac issues with every single patch and update and they ignore the majority of their userbase which is Windows.

Nowhere did you specify “oh man this latest update/patch was totally geared to Mac only, that sucks man.”

Maybe sometime in the future you’ll have the time to actually research how it really for Mac users:)

Since when is ‘playing the sims on a mac’ a right you have? Ofcourse you have the right to complain, but saying that you ‘deserve the game’ kind off goes to far… You can aways buy a pc as option. You don’t always get what you want unfortunatly.

Then what bug fixes HAVE they been fixing cause none of them help my game and I don’t have a Mac?

No one said that you didn’t deserve to play? My comment was toward the latest update? Cool your jets? Thanks

Sometimes it’s better to hide behind the monolithic, faceless EA identity.
