Why the heck did nobody yet develop an alternative like we've seen with SimCity/City skylines?!
They would make so much money and fuck EA.

Yep. That's why I stopped distro hopping years ago.
Once set-up it just works™.
No die, is funni
Wait until you hear of a little state called Arkansas.
Whoosh?
The "this would never happen to me" mindset really is cancer to logical thought and reasoning.
I somewhere read (maybe it was thinking fast and slow by Kahneman?) that even psychology students learning about certain behaviors would later anonymously claim they would never fall into these patterns. But plot twist: they are also only human, so of course they also could fall into these patterns.
Another example: People that think they would never fall for a scam. If it is the right scam they will fall even more easily for it than people that know that it could happen.
"Of course it can't be a scam. Scams are obvious and only idiots fall for them."
What's confusing? I am confused by your confusion. This is all confusing.
I needed to scroll way too much to see people mention marketing and advertising. It's a huge deal.
The power of good advertising is not to be underestimated. There is a good statistically proven reason why so much money flows into it. And it's not only traditional advertising but viral and "astroturfed" advertising.
That's a strange hill to die on. I mean sure I will also never buy this game but with inflation it's just a matter of time.
I would much rather have a higher initial cost with no macro transactions in game.
Not surprising. The Netherlands has way more money per square meter.
