Why are you showing Batuu is required to use other packs in Sims 4? [ Edited ]

[LuvMySimz]

This was a very lame move trying to trick people into buying the flopped pack that nobody wants.

Do you know what. I'm even in marketing and I fell for the "To access all content" scam when all I wanted was My First Pet Stuff (for the small pets). Apparently, you can use it even without having Cats & Dogs. I really had no idea, and now it's too late to return Cats & Dogs.

Anyone who purchased Batuu under the false pretense that you need it to play any of the other Sims 4 packs needs a refund.

Hey there everyone!

This should be resolved now.

But just to confirm - are you still getting this message or has it been fixed for you?

@EA_Leeloo I just tried it and the pop up didnt show. Thank you for fixing this!

[HiddenTidess]

@EA_Leeloo I still count this as half resolved, this needs to be publicly told to the community across platforms about this issue, people who had only bought the pack because of these false ads should have a chance to ask for a refund. Frost or another guru needs to publicly state it's not required so that way people do not still believe this to be the case.

@EA_Leeloo--it no longer shows as a requirement but as a suggestion. thank you for the update.

[EA_Leeloo]

Great to hear it's no longer showing up - thank you for confirming! 

Happy Simming!

I totally agree with you on this point! This was such a dodgy, dishonest move from Origin.
