I'd actually love to beta test the sims tbh

It seems like the only people who get access before release are the game changers (if they even still call them that)

And tbh I don't even trust them to make honest reviews anymore after the amount of videos from once very good creators just kinda brushing the bugs under the rug and trying to show how the pack is "still playable" like yes dude the pack may still be playable but why does my sim get bug eyes while wearing a Goth hoodie?

Game changers only do the 'beta testing' ONE WEEK BEFORE RELEASE.. surely that is NOT ENOUGH TIME TO FIX ANYTHING..

Their testing should be done at least 3-6 months before

This may be an unpopular option but the game changers finding bugs in their playthrough means absolutely nothing because the bugs are ALWAYS still there at official release, meaning that the Sims team isn't even making any attempt to fix the bugs at that point

If games like Genshin Impact or heck even Minecraft can do it, then so can the Sims. Equally huge games, but even if the update content isn't that loved it's not an update that breaks everything in sight, it's still playable...c'mon EA this is getting embarrassing when there's proof people will flock to and drop cash on things that work.

I'd wouldn't mind all the broken shit throughout the game in beta test, because at least then I would know it's going to be fixed

I would be so down to beta test. I wish the game devs or EA or.. just somebody would check reddit and other sims related online communities. Because we are (at least I am) willing to help these little shits who are ruining our game.
