I love when people in a fandom get mad and are like “we need to speak with our wallets. Boycott the next the release >:(“ and I’m sitting here with my terabytes of pirated software like “wait, y’all are still buying games in 2024?”

I was today years old when I learned that if you have rental car coverage in your car insurance plan, your car is more likely to be totaled after a minor accident. Apparently, if you have rental car coverage and there's a long wait for one of the damaged parts on your car, your insurance will simply total your completely repairable car so that they don't have to pay your rental car bill for the amount of time it takes a back-ordered part to show up.
Actually, now that I'm thinking about it, I wonder if these lackluster "packs" we've been getting for The Sims 4 are actually "refined" scraps that got scrapped. As in, we know Spa Day wasn't the only pack refresh EA was planning to do, but because of the under-performance of the pack, they most likely scrapped the other updates they had in the works. I wonder if they're now trying to sell those scrapped ideas back to us in order to make up on their lost time investment.
Growing Together = Parenthood Refresh
Horse Ranch = Cats & Dogs (Pets) Refresh
For Rent = City Living Refresh
Home Chef Hustle = Cool Kitchen Refresh
Crystal Creations = Realm of Magic Refresh
I'm not saying it's that likely, but it's certainly a conspiracy theory I don't think EA is above.
