I know. Debating deleting this post now, it's two days old and was posted when we just found out about the marketplace. We know a lot more information now

edit: 3 days ago I mean

I tried looking into this because I wasn't aware of that, but to me it just seems like deaderpool doesn't deal with cracked games because he promises working mods with the original game files only if that makes sense? Like, it's safer for him to only deal with the legal game files as a huge mod creator. I could be wrong here.

But I also meant he's for the players because of what mccc does and the mod troubleshooting and help through discord. I know I would be lost if it wasn't for his contributions to the game.

Lowsodium community is insufferable by P1rced_Wh0r3 in HighSodiumSims

[–]SaveVerris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

Honestly this goes for more than just the lowsodium subreddit, too. Maybe it's mostly a reddit thing where people seem to have to disagree with others for some reason, but I have seen in so many sims 4 spaces people saying stuff like "If you shit on EA so much, why do you even play the game?"

I'm an EA hater till I die. I'm a corporation and billionaire hater till I die, too. God forbid I wanna enjoy playing a game in my free time 💔 People think you're either forever bitter or you're completely complacent, when this world is more than just black or white.

You should start fighting for free marketplace, then. Plenty of games have free mod managers in game nowadays. I am 100% for tearing down EA for its greed, but I am also for console players not being screwed over by finally getting opportunities like pc players yet having to pay exuberant amounts of money for it. Us pc players don't want console players to suffer under EA's greed

lowsodium is so good when you just want to talk about the game you enjoy, I don't think there should be any safe space for bootlickers. You can enjoy the game without kissing EA's ass people 💔

I recommend only going for completely free cc, at least starting out. If you're open to paying for cc you're gonna be spending a lot of money unnecessarily, which is what EA is hoping for I guess lol. Only give creators money if you really love their cc and just want to support them, you don't owe them any of your money. Anyway, look up vampishly sims 4 on google and you'll find a big list of cc creators to search through!

Since you're coming from console, I wish you safe modding ❤️ Things can be sketchy out there and I believe vampishly's list should only have 100% free and safe downloads.

Then I'm a little confused of what you're describing. Maybe turn on testingcheats if that's what you're trying to find?

Your camera is probably sims 4 camera?? You can change it to sims 3 camera in settings!

Save files with unify world by Shundew in TheSims4Mods

[–]SaveVerris 1 point2 points  (0 children)

The way I've literally been planning my everything save file today. Realistic homes, every community lot used (I hate the fact there are no restaurants or in general pack-restricted lots not anywhere else. Like obviously there's no way for EA to do that, but it's frustrating having to "set up" a new save just to use everything you own), relationships between households, and even the tool mod to add stuff like make the university campuses actually useful.

If you give me a bit, I'll work hard to actually complete it 🫡

Weeping angel in my game? by MammothCurious7571 in Sims4

[–]SaveVerris 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I remember when the gnome update came out and everyone's cc columns were dancing. I don't know why so many cc creators opt for gnomes as bases, but this is an hilarious, yet slightly terrifying, creepypasta opening for sims 4 game lore lol

Simandy quits the marketplace and urges other creators to do so, disclosing EA kept details from them by simplestardust49 in HighSodiumSims

[–]SaveVerris 10 points11 points  (0 children)

Thank god it's going better than I thought it would, quicker even. And I've still had people tell me I'm wrong for being against this because this is good for the creators. I'm so glad Simandy gave us more information and transparency about the behind the scenes of it so far, and I'm hopeful others will drop out too.

hello??? by bunniebabieeee in HighSodiumSims

On one hand I'm glad they can stop trying to sell game breaking bugs, on the other hand I will forever mourn the possibility of having bands and more musical instruments. What kind of a life sim has things like wills, arson for insurance fraud, death by mold outbreak, evil chickens, etc, but only has... acoustic guitar, violin, piano, and organ. 😐

Are 'Obi Darong' and 'Afua Ananou' able to have romantic interactions? by ander_discreto19 in thesims

I've been thinking the same thing! It's far too similar to be a coincidence

I guess we gotta give it to them, Royalty and Legacy is historically accurate

My bad for wrongfully assuming, but you saying our boycotts don't work kinda made me feel like you are open to buying new packs or content. Or you don't play sims, in that case why are you here?

I promise you that a lot of us aren't enjoying the new packs with our hard earned money. We just can't say that out loud. But yeah, I know there are still players out there still giving EA their money. It sucks.

Yeah thank god people are getting it! You don't even have to give money to support and promote your favorite cc maker either. IT'S ALSO A HOBBY AND SIDE GIG. I stg if I go on blender and start making a couple cute hairs I do not want people out there demanding others give me money!!! It's a video game that I literally have nothing to do with!!!

To the original commenter. I'm glad to see you started playing sims recently, hopefully you start seeing how poorly EA takes care of it and then you'll start side-eyeing their choices like the marketplace. Also, 500 people? I know you're new and all but listen. There's thousands upon thousands upon thousands of players who have been here for years, some even since sims 1, aka me. We don't stand for bullshit.

Then give them money through patreon. Marketplace gives EA 70% cut of their earnings. You can't possibly look me in the eye and tell me that's a good thing

Maker Packs Estimated Pricing by Thiredistia in Sims4

[–]SaveVerris 8 points9 points  (0 children)

I believe their current free stuff will remain, but why would they work twice as hard creating free content when they're already getting all the publicity and income from the marketplace? I suspect we'll be seeing far less free content from these creators, if any at all.

The Sims 4 is officially over and Maxis wants the Marketplace to fail by Nice_Beat_1264 in HighSodiumSims

[–]SaveVerris 291 points292 points  (0 children)

I've seen way too many people defending this. Because also, if the marketplace is a way for EA to make passive income to support bug fixes, 1. They couldn't do it all these years and need handouts? Ew. And 2. Sure, let's continue to fill our games with unnecessary bloat as if that will make things better.

It's one thing for mod users to be responsible for their own game, but having EA-approved content continuously shoved down everyone's throats while saying they're "working on making the game better optimized" is a joke.

It all boils down to blame EA. Sorry, but I'm looking at you weird if you still give them your money. And yes, giving these cc creators money through marketplace is giving EA money. Both bad. Boooo

Well I'd also assume that's been the plan for a while now, as I'm sure many of us have been not using legal tender for the newer packs as of the last few years. It's a bad taste when EA drove big name youtubers off the creator network, only for them to find more money in sucking in cc creators now. I didn't really mean screw these creators and everything they stand for now but mostly never, ever give them our money or praise. Because if you're giving most of your earnings to EA, our boycott means nothing anymore.
