The Sims 4 modding community is disappointed by new 'microtransaction' marketplace
The Sims 4 modding community is expressing disappointment with Electronic Arts' new official 'Marketplace' for custom content. Creators are unhappy with the introduction of a new currency, 'Moola,' and EA's 70 percent cut of all purchases, arguing it exploits their work. The marketplace also raises concerns due to Electronic Arts' funding sources, including Saudi Arabia's Public Investment Fund, which has led some creators to withdraw their support.
