Are you waiting for a review to tell you if it's good or not? Or are you just going to be faithful to an iffy company and purchase it on day one?
Remember EA listens to our wallets.

Even when that said company is Blaming you for the game's downfall? Sorry but a company shouldn't put blame the consumer for it's game doing terrible or why they are mad.
Sorry but I'll be waiting. I'm not going to support this BS kind of practice.
The SimGurus are not blaming anyone what so ever.
Don't tell me how to spend my own money that is in my wallet.
You are in denial. In my opinion, Sims 4 is slowly becoming Sim City 2013. If things don't improve soon I feel this game is going to die in a year. And SimGuruDrake is constantly blaming us for being upset and why things are not changing. Just listen to Sims4News latest video. The comments she leaves are extraordinary in stupidity and not how a community board should treat their fans. EA needs to rethink how they talk to us if they want to see our trust return.
this person is annoying me he is all over the forums bashing ea/sim gurrus im sick of the whiners on this forum im sure you are too as i said earlier in a thread 1st world problems much??
Telling someone what they can like and what they can dislike is very disrespectful. Everyone is entitled to what they can like and dislike.
also slandering a sim gurus name isnt cool either imo
Sorry for trying to force you onto something, cause you are absolutely right that everyone is entitled to their own decisions.
And my decision is wait and see what the team brings to the table before shelling out my money.
If it is a theme that I've been wanting then I am going to get it before there will be any reviews. Specially popular themes like Pets, Generations, University, Seasons, Apartments etc.. With a popular theme even if the EP was not done well as a whole at least there will be few things good that will come out of it.
And before you state that I'm bashing EA/SimsTeam for no reason then you are mistaken my friend.
EA has taken advantage of the fans all the time. Simmers, Star Wars Fans, Battlefield fans and so on. Battlefront was a complete disgrace and insult while BF4 was a buggy crash prone mess. Sims 4 was empty and lifeless with what EA decided to force SimsTeam to cut out. EA knows these games just sell on their name alone which spells bad practices of taking advantages of the fans.
SimsTeam have been very lacking on telling us on what we truly want to know. Look I understand legal actions prevent them for saying everything, but staying silent and only saying "we are listening" Is not going to cut it anymore. Why has it been so long since the launch and we still have no word on toddlers that have been in the BASE game since Sims 2. Why are we mad? Cause we expect it from a Base game by now.
You may think I'm whining, but think about it. If EA can get away with charging you for 60 to 70 dollars for an unfinished game. What makes you think they wont continue this practice. What makes you think they will give us less for expansions or other packs. What makes you think EA will charge you even more for the future game. Bad practices need to be addressed if we want to see change.
This is quite concerning and makes me very sad. I'm not telling you what you can and can't spend your money on, it's your money and you can do what you want with it. However, by blindly supporting them you have become part of the problem. The only way they'll realise that this game is not up to par with the last three is by not buying everything they put out until they give us something that's actually worth it, or they at the very least cut the prices in half. I refuse to pay full price for anything they release for ts4 unless it is truly worth it...ie seasons, pets, and farming all in one ep, which I know will never happen. So, in answer to the op's question, I will wait until it goes on sale before I even bother to consider buying it. I refuse to support them fully until they give us something worth the money.
Or they just have their own opinion, preference, mind and all.
I know it sounds crazy, insane even but yeah..maybe that's it.
Lol you're claiming "first world problems ", but last I checked living Sims 4 isn't exactly an essential human need.
Also, calling other members names/insults is against forum rules.
As for me, I'm not paying EA/Maxis for subpar products ever again after Sims 4 and Get to Work.

for me the times of preordered TheSims things are past
would TS4 be a usual Sims game i would be absolutely excited about a City EP
but what is there to expect after DO delivered not only unplayable restaurant staff but not even the option to choose the sims the player prefers
& the patch accompanying it with aggressive relationships culling is just the complete OVERKILL
so surely not buying anything
& i am pretty sure, i won't even buy it at half the price
this gameplay & the game's options had first to change radically towards options for the player & actual simulation before i am willing to come back
& i don't think the devs are willing to change the path they are going, the path of refurbished apps with TheSims logo slapped on them
so
not even overwhelming reviews will bring me back
there are more hoops the devs have to jump before that happens
or the price has to be at around ... 3€ maybe
However, it may end up just being a decision to not buy the EP right away. I intend on buying Get Together eventually while it's on sale but at the same time I still haven't bought Supernatural, Showtime, or Into the Future for the Sims 3 and probably won't except for maybe Showtime. I don't want to buy into things blindly but I'm also content enough with the game where I'm not going to refuse to buy things as a form of protest.
Yes, that's exactly what it is.

Um no one is blaming anyone, because there is no downfall. EA are boasting about The Sims 4 in their financial reviews, and Devs are posting on Twitter how good the game is selling.
Are you trying to tell us EA are blaming us for making The Sims 4 the best selling PC game two years in a row?
And their best performing game in 2015, alongside Fifa?

Well it might be a bit like Sim City, if they release the rumoured City Life EP...
playable ZOMBIES
playable zombies eating away all those aimlessly grinning wanderers
mayhem !
& additionally rats, stray cats & cars
