This would actually be an idea for the Sims 5. Merge the Sims with the SimCity. You can imagine the joy it would bring. Create and manage cities, create and manage houses, create and manage characters, all in one. The size and computer requirements for such a game could be lowered by lowering the graphics. Lowered graphics could be made to look cute, and to leave more space for smooth gameplay.

you could call itsims city...i'll show myself out

Maybe as a spin-off game or something but not as a mainline Sims game.

That was just my assumption, that the first criticism of the idea would have been the graphics and overall computer requirements needed for such a fusion of two games, because there is already no open world in The Sims 4 because of the heavy graphics, and that The SimCity 2013 has very limited cities in size because of the heavy graphics.It is still a graphics vs. gameplay debate, where some people prefer better graphics, while some other prefer better gameplay, that is probably why some still prefer The Sims 3 over The Sims 4. I am not a hardcore gamer, and I don't have a powerful gaming computer, as probably the majority of the people who play The Sims. But if The SimCity and The Sims would be merged in one game, then I promise I would buy a new and powerful computer just to play it, lol.It would be awesome to have a possibility to create a city, with roads and streets, and different types of buildings - residential, commercial, and industrial - and then you place the Sims to live in residential areas, and to go to work in commercial and industrial areas, even if it is a very limited city like in The SimCity 2013.For the price of 2 EPs you can get a decent video card (on sale usually) from $300 down to $100. I would put my money into a better machine and play the better graphically intense games rather than a watered down version of The Sims and Sim City hybrid.

I would vote yes if this was an exclusive sim city project that also allowed connectivity to a sims game. i've actually wished for it over the years.
but for this to be functionality add to the sims, nope sorry, and i'm not willing to sacrifice my graphics. i will admit, the sims 4 is the best looking sims game thus far, but i dont think the graphics in this game are so amazing for current gen gaming. and definitely not willing to see them watered down any further.

I would definitely not want to see a sims / sim city crossover if it affected the sims timeline of releases whether that be DLC or a new addition to the series such as let's say a sims 5. so being that sim city is no longer a thing development wise, i have to say no.

I mean, I'd give it a go... but I feel like EA might be trying to forget about SimCity now...

I feel like EA might be buying the Cities: Skylines developer team in the near future, ha ha ha.

YES! For the love of all that is good ( including PROFIT$$$ )!
Bring back STREETS OF SIM CITY TOO! It's unfair to try to claim THE SIMS needs to be family friendly, contain no criminals and light violence, action, etc....when lately with all the WOOHOO and shenanigans ...it is far from it.
Go back the grand unified vision W.W. had for ALL the SIMSTITLEs to be used in conjunction with one another.
No title is ever DEAD and can come back and regain it's crown. LOOK AT MICROSOFT FLIGHT SIMULATOR 2020 and 2024. NOBODY thought MS would EVER produce another Flight Sim and now they have made HISTORY by delivering one of the most paradigm shifting experiences in history and continue to do so with FS2024.
ANYTHING can be done in 2025! It's just the WILL. imo the $$$$$$$$$$ will come.
