That's why it should be a option. Like Minecraft.
I actually could not disagree more. I don't want to play with friends. The best part of TS4, for me, is that it's self-contained. I can download mods and play it MY way - and there's no one to judge. I don't have to worry about scheduling to be online to play with a specific friend. I can play on my schedule. If I want interactive play, there are plenty of games for that. If I just want to be left alone and unwind away from other humans? TS4 is my go-to. I'm afraid that adding a multi-player component would ruin the sims. It has never been an interactive game. I'm not sure why they want to change that now. I'm envisioning a hellscape of bald, underwear-clad sims whose CC isn't loading. I feel like too much would have to change - and too little would be locally customizable. Mod compatibility, for instance, would be a huge barrier. And they already tried The Sims Online. It was a huge flop.
