Will Sims 3 be rendered unplayable in 2022 since the launcher depends on IE?

I would say yes? When TS5 releases it will only be a matter of time before TS3 gets the axe, it will go the way of TS2, it will become outdated and more buggy.

This isn't about will Sims 3 go if 5 comes along, it's about will it be unplayable when IE gets shut down. So this seems like rather bad info for this topic. As for TS5, no one knows if EA is even doing it and if they are, no one knows when it'll come out.
