@FallenRavenBlood, what few people realize is that having the Sims on consoles is a collaboration between 3 companies, EA, Sony, & Microsoft. TS4 was out for years before it was available for consoles. People who had the game on discs for the PC/Mac still wouldn't' be able to use those on consoles anyway! 😞 Only downloaded games would work. Also, since so many people already had the game on PC, it would have been disastrous for Sony PS4 and Microsoft Xbox if the PC/Mac games would be directly available on consoles. They would loose tons of money, and would never have agreed to such a collaboration in the first place. Therefore TS4 would never have been available on consoles. The best that could happen would have been a separate console game that would bear the same name, but not actually be the same game (as had been done in the past with TS2 and TS3). But the actual TS4 wouldn't be on consoles, as it wouldn't be fair to Sony and Microsoft .
Also, I think many people figured that if someone who owned an Xbox of PS4 wanted to paly on a computer, they would have done so already, when the game was only available on computer. Many assumed that console players just didn't want to play on a computer in the first place.🤨 The game was out for several years, so they had plenty of opportunity to do so. Many people thought that having TS4 on consoles was opening up the world of the Sims to people who would never want to play on a computer in the first place. So that console players now want to play on a PC after they can play on a console (and not before when they couldn't ) is puzzling to many people. 🤔
