"The biggest feature cut was the toddler life stage [...]."
This is simply not true. Toddlers have never been a "big" feature. Not even close. I know They are important to many people but they are just a "small" part in a life sim game. That's all. Sorry for this criticism but it really bothers me.
Edit: I knew many people would disagree with me for pointing this out How rude...

I read it last night. It's a great article and I really think you captured the way a lot of us are feeling. I know that I felt like you were taking the words right out of my mouth. So glad Metro ran it.
