I haven't played TS1 since I was a teenager, but I still play 2, 3, and Medieval.
I own 4 and a couple EPS; I play for an hour or 2, maybe once or twice a year, but that's it. I can't get into it. It's shallow, it's boring; it's basically a mobile game that was ported to PC because money.
EA doesn't understand that their fanbase has evolved. The TS1 and 2 fans, who have supported the franchise since forever, are now adults, and I'm sure I'm not the only one who'd LOVE to see a mature, well-thought-out Sims game with more realistic approaches to relationships, death, etc. Sims 2 and 3 both came close, but missed the mark, and Medieval... It was, and is, my favourite installment, and I would KILL for it to have gotten the full Sims treatment.
I get that they're trying to attract new fans, but there has to be a way to do that without completely alienating the rest of us.
