As I'm checking the Get Together forums, I can definitely tell people love The Sims 4. But I have a question: HOW did it outsell Sims 2 and 3? I would've thought the negative reviews made people NOT buy it.
This is a lie, and if there were a disagree button, there would be 25+ disagrees to the couple likes. This is a copy/paste post of his, so you'll see it verbatim again. Just consider the source and keep in mind that this is misinformation. I've posted the stats for 1/2/3 before, and TS4 initial sales did not seem meet expectations if you go by what RF stated a while back in an interview, but sales seemed to pick up after GTW. However, it is not a record smashing game which is exactly what it would have to be in order to beat any of its predecessors.
Anyway, to me this game is a failure on most levels, and disclaimer: this is just my opinion based off of my own game experience.
I want a Sims game that outshines TS2 in AI/game logic, so any Sims game that doesn't is going to fail hard in my gradebook. Blame early gen Maxis for setting the bar so high.
