Lots and lots of ebooks for my Nook. I'd rather spend my money on things I know I'll enjoy.
For all those who are buying the game and are excited about it, I hope it turns out to be everything you believe it will be. And I also hope you will give honest reviews of your gameplay.
I'm buying the game but Destiny comes out a week later so if I don't like it I already have Destiny paid for and I've already paid for the new WoW ep as well so I have that in November and Assassins Creed I've already pre-ordered for November so I have that and Dreamfall: Chapters as well. Even if TS4 is great I am still going to play other games, there's a lot of good ones coming out and I don't even know how I'll play them all with the amount of time I have for games these days. I'm hoping my little ones take naps every day and go to bed early in the evenings so I can get my game on.
Hopefully with all the game news coming out of PAX this weekend like water gushing from a broken dam, I'll decide which fall game or games are worthy of my money. Certainly not TS4. Maybe Destiny, the new Civ, the new Dragon Age.
I pre-ordered Civilization: Beyond Earth instead(got 25% off at GMG). It's still over a month away, but I have a pretty big Steam backlog to work through until then. Maybe after that they will have patched TS4 into something worth buying. It's kind of sad... This will be the first Sims game I didn't buy on launch day.

That does look super awesome doesn't it? I may ask for that for my b-day in October.
Sadly, I don't even have the $70 for Sims now anyway, so I'm spending that $70 on dog dental surgery. Furbabies, so expensive. I have no regrets though. She'll be happier and if Sims 4 is any good, I'll get it later. This forum will no doubt be FULL of reviews, fair and otherwise.
Taking out the Family tree is flat out mean and was the last straw. <br />
You dont want families in this game and that is evident. Babies that are stuck in one place discouraging players from building families....teens are the same heights as adults, and toddlers are simply Omitted. <br />

On Sept 2nd I'm taking myself out for dinner with the money i had set aside.
I'm going to buy Sim points & purchase some of the Worlds & venues I passed on previously for Sims 3.
My style of game play was completely eliminated by making babies mere objects & leaving out toddlers. I play families. Not singles, not YA's, not friends. Families.
Family life is impossible with babies that can't be moved from the bassinet and completely bypass being toddlers.
I'm sticking with Sims 3 & will enjoy the new content I buy.

I hope your dog's surgery goes well! Give her a pat on the head from me.
I'm not spending the money I allocated for TS4 just yet because I'd hoped so badly that EA/Maxis had something left up their sleeves, but that hope is rapidly wearing away so now I have my fingers crossed for a sale on TS3 expansions soon - I'd like to get Island Paradise, definitely, and maybe Seasons.

Bolding by me - I completely agree with you there. That's also my playing style and this is going to be really restrictive and just...weird. I can't get over baby-to-child. I just can't. It really needs to have toddlers to be anywhere near realistic. And the Sims 3 doesn't.
I'll probably get the Dungeons and Dragons 5th edition core books and some new dice. I wasn't going to because it was so horrible during the playtests, but Wizards really listened to their fans and made it better! Now if only other companies could do that too...
I suppose I'll get gas for my car... maybe fill the tank all the way up and stare off into the distance, not even looking back at how much it will be. That would be nice.
'Assassin's Creed: Unity' looks good to me - you get to play with a whole city, not under two dozen lots. Or 'Civilization: Beyond Earth'. You know, a game that's not actually unfinished and broken, that someone has actually playtested for more than a minute..
I got the Sims 4 for $35 cos my Aunt went to Mexico and bought it on their Origin for me.
I'm spending the other $35 on GTA V because I finally finished
I've finally played all the GTA games from GTA 3 upwards (except China Wars).
Hmm I might just go and buy more things from the Sims 3 store instead since thats the game I am sticking with...or save for my real trip to New Orleans

Thanks! I bet the expansions will go on a serious sale on Amazon for the holidays. (I know, that's a while off, but I bet TS4 will have a good sale by then as well). I'm hoping the TS3/Origin store does a sale before then. Seasons is totally worth it, BTW. Very fun.

Between this comment and your love of Geralt, you are absolutely my favorite person.

Saying "not to be rude", then blatently being rude does not excuse rude behavior.
