- What’s that? A Spellcaster casted Dedeathify on me, just to talk about the state of The Sims 4. Lately it has experienced many game-breaking bugs with almost every DLC that’s been coming out, leaving many players unable to enjoy the game. What are Maxis/EA doing...?

reading the title I seriously thought Bugs Galore was a new pack
Lmao, seeing how recent packs have been maybe some of them should have been called Bugs Galore 😅
It’s a free game pack that infiltrates literally all aspects of gameplay.
@@thexshattered true 😂
@@teawitchedlucky we don't even need to buy this pack, just like celebration one, EA is so kind 😍😍😍
I did too...I would've bought it too.
I love having a game I can no longer play due to incompetence and laziness.
it’s so boring. i can’t even build anymore because of the glitches and lag.
The amount of bugs and having modders fix it is the exact reasons i crack all the dlcs, no use giving money to a company that would throw there problems on someone fixing it for them
Especially when the game costs over £1k!
So, steal a product that you just said isn't even worth paying for..that's how we settle things now?
You look really....'humble' at this moment...not.
@@SimlikeitHotyes fyck EA no one cares just shows how shit the sims 4 is if people still pirate its content so boohoo on EA’s part
@@SimlikeitHotyes… bc it’s not worth paying for it lol
@@jessicahatter6518 Then it shouldn't be worth stealing...
Your logic is flawed.
I wouldn’t be surprised if they (EA) are breaking the game themselves to sell more Rene games. Funny it seems TS3 got worse the closer Sims 4 got to release 😅
Yeah seems to be a trend 🤔
After crystal creations came out my sims keep doing the weeding plants animation in random places, and the game slows down tremendously whenever my sims cook something
Sims weeding in random places is not new, at least, not for me. I got Sims randomly weeding in the kitchen or living room, at times, even on the second floor, for at least a year before crystal creations.
When it came out, my Sims refused to take care of their children to the point where they got taken away. They would pick up the toddler/infant then put it back down 😭
Ngl the bugs is the reason why I could never justify getting truly into the game. Buying a $60 game pack that could mess up my game?
Plus I play on console (a PS5) and every patch they release changes the controls and there is NO WAY OF CHANGING CONTROLS (?) Like hello??? 😭
That sucks, I really feel for console players because they can't get any of the fixes modders have made for buggy DLCs...you kinda have to wait for EA/Maxis to fix them...if they ever do
Have the controls been fixed yet?
@@DiscoTimelordASD you still can't change them sadly any controls to your own personal preferences still :( you kinda just gotta get 'used to them'
There's so many glitches in the simplest things in the console version. At least there is for me. You can't change bindings because the controls change in-game depending on context. Sometimes it's one button to sell and sometimes the other. Makes playing feel like wranging!!!
Reasons I've been clinging to sims 2 and 3 so hard still. I'm waiting with baited breath for Life by You and Paralives. Life By You seems like it will give me sims 2 and 3 nostalgia but in an updated way.
That's if dude ever releases it....
It looks as if it'll have just as many, if not more problems at launch than Sims4 ever had in its 10 year span...
He's added so much content, frame rates looks ridic...
I play 1, 2, 3 & Medieval🙂
Also waiting for Life by You and Paralives.
@@SimlikeitHotwhy are you dick riding EA and the Sims so hard in the comments lol
@@SimlikeitHot ok EA sockpuppet
This is why I’m in my stardew valley/Minecraft era
Love Stardew!
The bug that still bugs me is when you want to add someone to the household or split it. When you press the tick to confirm, nothing happens and youre stuck on that screen. After all this time its still broke for me
I've had this issue, sometimes it makes my game crash :(
@@teawitched I thought something like this would’ve been fixed long ago but I’ve had it since I can remember which is a shame. Getting married and adding the spouse to the household never works via this method for me. I have to do it from the manager world screen
@@DigitallyRemasteredMusic hopefully it gets fixed soon...
Over the last 3 years, every pack introduced more bugs than feature, and, the bug to feature ratio is increasing.
Way ahead of you! Spent the last two days fixing and modding ts2, haven’t touched ts4 in a min
The Sims 2 is the best imo!
Same, the moment they started the spring discount, I bought two sims 3 eps and uninstalled the sims 4 completely. Now i have so much fun playing the sims 3 again, I finally see how boring the sims 4 was
My sims keep getting stuck on tables and it doesn’t even get fixed after reloading the game. You have to input a cheat to teleport them somewhere else. And I also have been having an infinite weeding loop for months now. Sims will weed and weed and weed. They never stop. And the weeds don’t even go away!
Yeah both of these have been an issue for a while...the weeding bug is very annoying
I know... Mostly happen when you tell your Sim to weed all or tend the garden. In some cases, the plain and slow weed will work. But, use the weeding machine, and welcome infinite weeding.
Get a spell caster learn the Floramodial spell go and tend your garden. In no time, he'll have gained all of the perks.
Then, there is the cheat.
I remember that growing together patch "bug" ( I think they modified the base mesh for sim heads) that messed up everyone's sims. It was horrible, all my precious babbys looking like they went through the sims 2 plastic surge machine with low aspiration.
i prefer the sims 3, even if it is a slow laggy mess ;(
The Sims 3 is a great game, but yes the lag is quite unbearable :(
i recommend turning off packs u are not currently using in launcher :)). makes the game muuuch more bearable
there is bunch of mods to enhance your sims 3 gameplay performance,
try acottonsock's tutorial on ts3! or any other videos about the optimization of ts3
@sympathetic_heart Not Malcolm also has a video about helping with the sims 3 lag. Once you install the important nraas mods, limit the fps etc the game works really well 😊
Classic “game failed to load.” We’re old friends. I just save and load another family.
The modders are literally better game developers than EA themselves, they should be getting paid for this stuff.
I used to buy every sims pack during the prerelease and looked forward to every new expansion coming out but like $700 into the franchise I realized that I wasn’t enjoying it as much as I did in the past. I have been playing the sims since 1999. When I got the sims 1 for Christmas and my older brother helped me install it on the family computer I was so excited. I played for hours, when the sims 2 came out and I was a bit older I was even more excited, even after the sims 3 came out for maybe a year I kept playing the sims 2 intermittently. I’m a die hard sims 3 fan though, that world is so expansive, even now, I play it all the time, 10 years into the next franchise. The sims 4 has come to this point where idk if it’s a bug or a feature. I wait months if not years to purchase new pack or expansions and this is after simmers I trust have assured me that most of the big bugs have been worked out. Even still my mods and CC folder is so large my game takes 20 mins to load. It’s not fun without that extra content though. Sure there were bugs in the past, pangu’s axe, for instance, but nothing this bad that the game is completely unplayable. Each new pack or expansion I just cross my fingers and hope my game won’t be completely effed up. It wouldn’t shock me if someone told me these games weren’t play tested at all. I blame the fact that’s it’s built on a broken system and now it’s just like applying lipstick to a pig. It’s still a pig! At this point it’s best to light a match an start over. I think it’s a testament to the franchise that they still have loyal players. Even after the incest bug, the sleep paralysis demon infant bug, and the my first pet stuff pack as a whole, people are still willing to play this game.
I haven't really gone back to Sims 4 since Eco Lifestyle made the game unplayable for me by stacking all those annoying neighbourhood action plans and not letting me disable them, so Sims were just in a nonstop rotation of stopping whatever they were doing to do press ups, play the violin and bake cakes while the neighbours looted all the items in their houses.
Also the whole Sims Gurus culture makes me itch, I think Cottage Living was the last straw for that.
You can use cheats to immediately revoke a Neighbourhood Action plan. But I noticed sims still bake cakes and do press ups constantly without even having the plans 🙃
@@teawitchedI once had my Sim go visit her parents' house and every available square inch of it was covered with rotting cakes lmao, surreal horror movie scenario, I'm not even sure how it was able to happen.
@@ifu138 wow, that's funny and terrifying at the same time!
I knew sims 4 was infamous for being bad, but i didnt realise the problem was this bad.
State of modern gaming ig 🫠
I think that even if they took a break from releasing new content for like a year the game still would be broken; the sims games are very feature heavy games which is a good and a bad thing.
The only problem is that in recent years they put these packs with completely game breaking bugs, like this save corruption, your sims messed up genetics and we need to wait for months to finally come back to our main save with less fear that we will lose our progress. For me the most disgusting thing is the anniversery "events". Like the most lazy "just play the game" checklist and the merch store restock, with assets from the newest broken pack. I really could understand the fixes for For Ren pack takes longer than expected, but this merch store is ughhh. Well, I really want the sims 4 era to end to finally play the game, with mods (with no need to update them every month). I think the sims 4 has a lot of potential, with mods.
This is so in depth and spot on. Well done
Thank you!
It amazes me how bad TS4 is after like a decade. They’ve done literally nothing to fix it in ten years, and have instead just kept piling more and more bugs on top. It’s bizarre. I know it’s EA but even for them, TS4 is impressively broken.
On the sims 2 expansion packs felt like it truly expanded the game so much. In the sims 4 I'm just trying to avoid buying packs. I don't like to have more bugs and glitches, because I already have seen some issues in my game. 😂😅
Sims 2 EPs were goated!
Its unplayable. The Sims "team" is incompetent and unqualified. I have spent well over 1,000 Canadian dollars for this POS joke and now I want my money back.
You have a new sub because you say the truth. This game is now a garbage cash grab that barely works. Don't buy it - not even for free.
I am so sorry :( I think the Sims team just don't get enough time/resources to work on each pack because they're constantly working on new content. They really need to slow down and fix some of these bugs
I know EA is pissed they are losing their monopoly on simulation games this year there are like 3 games that are coming out this year
Yeah I am excited to see these new life sim games, hopefully they are good. I hope they make EA reconsider what they're doing with The Sims, because it's a franchise I love dearly
UGH thank you!!! i have complained about this to disinterested friends for AGES and they literally don’t believe me, because “surely it can’t be that bad.” BUT IT IS!!! it’s shocking. i don’t play the game with any mods, and it’s honestly nearly unplayable. i’ve personally kind of given up on it, they clearly don’t care about the game, they just want to keep pumping out “stuff” packs to grab 5 bucks off the occasional newcomer who doesn’t know any better. it breaks my heart cause i doubt if we’ll ever get another truly good Sims game.
EA makes the same exact football game every year with a roster update and sell it for 70 dollars. It’s kind of a far cry to expect them to do anything that isn’t tied to them getting paid. You’re more likely to have to buy an expansion to fix the bugs vs them just fixing them for free.
Not me hearing ''Books'' the entire time until i was so confused that the title got me thinking ''Bugs''
My packs have to be "restarted"? No idea what this means.
It just loads as base game.
I have had a persistent bug in my Sims 4 game since 2019 that makes the game run at a constant 10fps with no fix except restarting the game, for obvious reasons this is game breaking. All the Childhood Christmas Money I spent on DLC's 2014 and onwards has gone to waste. Forums discuss this bug very often due to its severity and yet the Team at EA has yet to even address it to my knowledge. I feel sorry for those still passionate about the game in the development team but are forced to rush things due to poor management and EA breathing down their necks for profit. Very excited for Paralives and other indie projects to give this game competition.
So sorry to hear that, that sucks :/ I am excited for Paralives too! Competition is healthy
I liked your bug vid, and look forward to more of your vids. 👍👍👍
Thank you!
MY CZcamsR LETS GO
Oh it bugs me so much when I most of the time make my sims dislike mischief but as soon as they move in they go troll teh forums... If they don't have a career that needs a computer, I either don't get one, or keep it locked.
And PETS.............................. PETS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
And KIDS. Seeing babies starve because parents just keep placing them in high chairs and putting them down. And then the babies almost die from exhaustion because they do the same with beds. Actually smoothest way to keep kids is have them sleep on the floor, and feed them raw plants you just throw on the floor. :D
Don't get me started on toddlers and high chairs, drives me mad 😅 everytime my sim speaks to the toddler they put them in the high chair, then take them out, then put them back...the only time they don't keep the toddler in the high chair is when they're actually hungry and need to eat!
Good video stuffs
How did I get 7 minutes in before realising there was no bug pack being added ?!
Sorry to disappoint 😅
i love u for this amazing video
Thank you!
can’t believe sims 4 basegame was 40€ at release
Ikr, what a rip off! At least it's free-to-play now
@@teawitchedtrue. also kinda funny how sims 3 basegame still isn’t free cuz it’s actually worth playing if u optimize it
@@Jiminfy Yeah, The Sims 3 and its DLCs are still quite costly 🤔
I missed SIM and I well have to keep missing it old time play of ail sim can't have any of it 😕
I want to know how to uninstall an update.
How EA screw up the Marriage event? Every time i play The Sims 3 and marry to another Sim everyone stop what they are doing to see the couple...Even the party dancer from the bachelor part was there...
i love sims
My game work it updated now it juts not work
We should all go back and play the My Sims games.
They were iconic!
EA is just depending on modders at this point. Which is infuriating. Modders used to make the game more silly or whatever else. They are now working for free, so others can enjoy a game.
How about the bug where the base game and all of its expansions disappear from your EA library? :)
Is Bugs Galore a stuff pack or expansion?
Oh, wait...
bugs galore is actually free dlc that comes with the base game and every pack! you might not even notice you downloaded it until you boot up the game! how fun.
@@eggzuki That's not sarcastic at all. 😂
rollercoaster tycoon 2 playthrough when?
uhhh...is Planet Coaster suffice?
@@teawitched sure
What about Theme Hospital?
ah a fellow gamer of fine taste 🤝
Jim Pickens appearance 10/10
we love Jim Pickens!
Our Dear Leader
great video, sims 4 sux
not u commenting from 2 different accounts 😭
Don't expose me
They know they can get away with all this because Sims fans will still buy this shit.
I'm sorry to say, but the modders of The Sims 4 community have spoiled those who should seriously work on the game and fix the bugs they caused. (Things are simple if the modders manage to find the solution in 24 hours or less), when for example to fix the bug of the broken animation when you gave birth to a sim in the hospital, it took ages, (and quietly there was a mod that solved the problem). For we shouldn't have to resort to mods, especially if our PC isn't powerful enough to handle them, or if we really can't, because unfortunately they play on consoles... If the modders instead of solving the messes that EA creates, it's not their game . Those who create bug fix mods and are "big" on CZcams should get together and tell everyone not to buy the sims 4, until EA decides to fix every little bug in the game, even the most insignificant.
I thought this was a real pack 😂 I mean, it kind of is.
if you still buy the expansions and packs then you have no right to complain
The Shit 4 is an awful product and lawsuit worthy. People keep dissing the Sims 3. The Sims 3 had lag, yes that's true but at least it was ambitious back in 2007-2009 when it was developed. The Shit 4 not only isn't ambitious and took steps back but it's still 10 times buggier and laggier. The Shit 4 could somehow be excused if it followed the Sims 2 but its incompetence shines comparing to the massive Sims 3.
Boycott the sims 4 show EA we don't need more content we need a game that works properly
It’s sad how we have to play previous sims games to enjoy a life simulation….OPEN YOUR EYES PEOPLE…Stop supporting EA because they gave you some good memories in the past…I Love the Sims series but I will NEVER support EA again…Sims 5🤮😂it will be a PS3 game running on current gen…I can already see it😂😅
Promo sm
Why the constant complaints? It's not fixing the game for everyone, it's only complicating matters.
Just move on..for good.
My game plays just fine, and many others do as well. Not rubbing it in, I'm thankful I have no big issues.
This proves it's not just an EA issue. It's also how we're playing our individual games, the platform it's on, and what we're putting in and out our games that could be causing most of our problems.
You can yell all day, everyday for EA to fix 'your' issues...but it'll only cause new issues for someone else who didn't have any.. It's an endless cycle...
Instead of boycotting or wishing death to the game, consider hanging The Sims4 up for good and perhaps moving onto other gaming experiences...
Some people have put a lot of money into game, some people love the game/franchise and want to continue playing. But the recent releases have been awful in terms of bugs, it's not too much to ask for EA/Maxis to put a bit more time & effort into making sure their packs are working at launch.
You're a sim
@@teawitched I've put over $1600 hundred dollars into The Sims4....and I'll put more if I see something I like. I choose to buy what I buy. No, EA didn't trick me into buying it. No, the devs didn't hold me hostage until I bought it..and no, I'm not naive. I bought what it was I wanted to continue enjoying my game. I don't buy a gang of content, then complain about all the problems that content and Sims4 has, only to continue buying more content...only to complain again. No. That's insanity.
I know the game has issues. It's old, it has a TON of content on it, and the public demands more from it daily.
Not respecting it's struggle, just: 'FIX THE GAME!'
..and some of us expect it to run like it's brand new..just released yesterday.
Everyone who plays Sims4 (except for thieves) have invested money into this game. But to feel ripped off everytime you continue to buy another 'broken' pack is not just the copmpanie's responsibility. It is us as consumers to take care of our game as well....and I'm sure many do not, they just play and blame EA for everything.
Again, regardless if you 'love the game so much', doesn't give anyone right to bring the spirits down of other players who still enjoy playing, nor gives anyone right to bash the company and the staff relentlessly to make them 'do better'.
Again, if no longer satisfied with said product, one is always free to take their patronage and their displeasure elsewhere...
@@SimlikeitHot I never once bashed players of the game in my video or mention anything close to what you have suggested. I even talk about how the game is 10 years old and so is struggling to keep up with new content. My video simply highlights the multitude of bugs that have been cropping up in the game, and I just ask that EA/Maxis slow down a little to work on fixing some of these bugs.
@@teawitched I never accused you of doing anything. Just go to any Sims4-hating channel and read the plethora of comments bashing Sims4 daily. But yet they continue playing.
Main channels are:
'Pixelade'
'SatchonSims'
'SimYin'
'SuperiorSimmer'
..news channels arriving daily...they live to complain.
The shop button they added is dumb. They say that it's for convenience but don't you have to restart the game to get the content anyway? So what's the point 😭
Yeah it's so pointless
