What greedy dumbasses, can’t even check that their cash grab works first.

Why should ot work? Most people will buy it for nostalgia reasons and “to play it again once the time’s right” and never actually manage to do so… /A bit of sarcasm with realization of how the world is

It’s sad but it’s true. Had the bundle been announced before launch, people would have been lining up to preorder.

Personally I just love that they didn’t even do a remake. They didn’t even do a remaster. They just did a rerelease. The absolute bare minimum. And they even screwed that up.

This is hilarious, thanks for sharing.

We should also add, The Sims ran like ASS back in the day. Random crashes were constant, and they STILL ARE. Nothing has been fixed, and even if it launches, it’s still got every single bug it used to have.
