What’s modern gaming convention that should no longer be practiced?

AAA companies releasing games that are basically early-access with zero thought or content.

AND just to put the salt on the wound, adding content that SHOULD have already been integrated with the core of the game, as purchasable DLC.

We, (speaking for just myself really), want a full complete game, that’s all we’re really asking for.

The Sims needs to fucking die. Several generations in and we still haven’t made “rain” or “toddlers” a standard in a fucking game that is literally a life simulation.

By all means though, EA keep milking the money teat for $20 a DLC pop to fill out that husk you’re whipping to death.

Any chance you can make a complete edition? No? Still need that money? What a shocker, you shills.

if you're smart and know where to look, you dont buy a sims game, or at least just the base version. i absolutely refuse to spend god knows how much money on the sims 4 just to get something close to a full release cause ea are greedy bastards and knowingly shipped a below bare bones game just to violently milk more money out of people.

hell with as popular as seasons was in 3 you'd think it would be made base game in 4. lol nope, why do that when you can make people pay for the same thing twice? and when i saw that toddlers werent base game, a feature in pretty much all sims games, i knew ea had dropped any pretense of subtlety
