Even if the game faced a big boom of extreme improvement (not gonna happen) what about this entire 5 years of meh??? Is it worth it? I think its too late now and as I probably said before theres literally no hope for players who expected a good improved modern and solid base who kept us interested. Since for many The Sims 4 doesn't deserve the 4 in the name, since for many both The Sims 2 and The Sims 3 are far superior, theres literally nothing on this planet that can change this situation now! Only a new game or a competitor.
5 years is too much! TOO MUCH! And if you are one of the players that don't feel like this game is so good but you somehow keep having hopes at this point for a kind of a miracle... I think you should reconsider if its worth it...
I disagree with you 100 percent. Thank goodness i am far from being alone. It is not the Sims 2 or Sims 3 - they are all different games and should remain different. I paid hundreds of dollars for Sims 2, 3600 dollars for Sims 3, and the full prices of Sims 1 and this game - for that kind of money I do not expect the same game with just a new coat of paint. I do not expect to compare it either - if they are comparable you just repaid for the same game all over again. Why would you want to do that anyway?
On top of it I am ecstatic this version still has many more years to go of new content I very much look forward to. As long as it is different than all the rest - well it is money well invested to me - but when they copy the past games - it is wasted money. How many times should you buy the same thing just repainted anyway. I mean comparing it to Sims 2 and 3 says that's exactly what you want. Well personally i am glad they are different and if I want to play those versions for what ever reason - well they are ready to play with a click on my pc already.
I play them now and then - but preferably I play the Sims 4.
Thats where we are different! In my vision The Sims 2 is a sequel of The Sims 1 with improvements. The Sims 3 is a sequel of The Sims 2 with improvements. And then The Sims 4 is a downgrade. I also paid every old series in this franchise but my vision is clearly another one. This game its called 4! By the logic I expected an improvement of The Sims 3. So its not the same game. The Sims 4 as we know today might be different also but for me its a big downgrade and I don't feel that I should pay for something worst. If they want to embrace that philosophy they better change the names tho. For me 4 is an indicator of successor not what we have right now. Having only the base game is something that I regret till today. No way I will pay a lot in thousands of dlc for an empty downgrade version of the franshise.
