Controversial news coming soon about TS4 (rumor)

Hopefully it's not about adding disabilities to the game.

I’m glad to hear that nothing is being delayed. This is why I generally dislike it when people tease inside information.

Nothing is being delayed.

I just wanna say thanks for always taking the time to talk to us and keep us updated on things. Even just a couple of posts in a thread means a lot.

While I love Disney movies, and products, I do not want Disney behind the sims. Journey to Batuu was like a bad mobile game, and I do not like how Disney Dreamlight Valley looks and is catering to a child like audience. Since Sims 1, they have always marketed mainly to young adults, with a little spill over to be family friendly. I see them moving in that direction more and more, especially with that last branding change image where, it looked cartoony and catered for children, not adults. Even images of Project Rene with the bubblehead sims makes me feel like I will never play that game. If its going all cartoony and catering to a extremely younger audience.

::Edit: no offense to anyone- I would like the Sims to stay consistent to it's brand and demographic age group, which is generally family friendly. If I want to Disney Dreamlight, I would play Disney Dreamlight. If I want to play minecraft, I would play minecraft. But I don't because I like the Sims and I don't want that to change.
::end of edit::

Some think the controversy might be subscription. I do not want to pay rent to play the Sims- sorry!

The say they are leaks. Anyone in their inner circle wouldn't leak unless they wanted them to. The leaks help them buy time to fix the loose ends, but not lose interest of the players.

I don't appreciate such vague leaks like this, that can means anything. Just a headache trying to guess and a waste of time. I would prefer transparency.

Now I feel bad I told the team to take out the dragons that were originally coming in the Simtimates Collection Kit :(

You sure it's wise to admit that? :p B)

If its going all cartoony and catering to a audience with little to now mental capacity, it's really insulting to their current audience. I wouldn't play anymore.

Uh- can we not equate liking/playing games with cartoony art style with lack of mental capacity or specific age group? :sweat_smile:

I don't think playing realistic R rated games instead would make person any less childish or somehow tell of their immense mental capacity

then again sure maybe don't use same marketing tactics as the toy companies
it would be nice to get actual information about the game and not just " look it changes color!" "have fun with friends!" "we are so cool!" *early 2000 toy advertisement flashbacks*

Okay here is my full speculation

The reason the news feed isn't back on the gallery yet is because they are prepping the gallery for the inclusion of worlds bc they are going to be dropping a create a world tool. The create a world tool is going to create a lot of discord because it's going to be part of the next Expansion pack. The neighborly Expansion is going to give you the ability to create neighborhoods.

Also there will be dragons because, why not.

It's okay, dragons can just get their own expansion pack. That way, they can have gameplay AND wear revealing underwear.
