@igazor I think as long as they make a genuine effort to make something good and not try what they did with Sims 4 making something cheap and lacking selling it full price, then at least most of us would be impressed.
@TroyTalks Haha it really seems like a real life Ed Edd n Eddy scam! I know they're EA but did they really think they'd pull the roll over our eyes??
There were some good lone features in Sims 4. The best thing about it imo was the parenting system, although the multi tasking system seems pretty great too. I wouldn't mind if SOME of Sims 4 features were implemented as long as the main track of Sims 5 was building on Sims 3.
@JoAnne65 Well, as a Zelda fan I can say not all hope is lost for us in the Sims 3 camp. Nintendo always made Zelda games that strived for non linear and challenging gameplay. But when Ocarina of Time came out in 1998, it began a new era of more linear, story driven games that came to a head with Twilight Princess. It split the fanbase up but recently we had a new game, Breath of the Wild, that was a deliberate attempt to bring back all the fans lost to the story driven style and give more of us what we wanted. Its almost a miracle because the loudest ones were the forum weaboos who loved the story driven style and wanted more of it, and they grew as time went on. And though BotW is the best selling Zelda game now all time, that group has become the minority again but you can still hear them loud and clear, yet the developer knows better this time and has expressed on more than one occaision that they intend to continue on the new path they embarked on Breath of the Wild.
I know with Sims the change was much more sudden and extreme, in Zelda it was very gradual and took place over the course of almost 15 yrs, but I think that is what gives the Sims fanbase so much more hope. I guess the hard part is whether or not EA is gonna see the outcry from many of us the way Nintendo saw the outcry over Twilight Princess & Skyward Sword. I think they can do it. The question is, do they wanna save the Sims franchise or do they want to lay it to rest at this point?
