How do you feel about The Sims coming to Alexa? Was this an exciting announcement for you?

Indifferent. I don't have an Alexa, but I'm sure some players will find it fun, and making it was probably a good creativity & technical boost for some people in-house, which will be to my benefit eventually.

I really just don't care for it.

It has nothing to do with the game itself so.....whatever.

I still don’t completely understand the point of those devices in the first place!? I guess it’s a side effect of getting old.. anyway I’m sure someone will enjoy it.

I couldn't care less. I hope they gain more players but this leaves me cold.

I don't have an Alexa and don't really want one. Glad people with Alexa can do the sim thing though.

It's for lazy people who don't want to go through the work of unlocking their phone or turn on their computer and put some music on youtube, simple.

Someday we will all have an app that opens our eyelids for us.

I don't have an Alexa, because it does not make sense for me. And the Sims app or skill doesn't add anything exciting. I don't listen to TS music outside of the game, I am not interested in answering trivia questions about The Sims (and my friends even less so) and I don't need a robotic voice telling me about the history of The Sims by asking me every 20 seconds whether I wish to hear more. So yeah, I guess I don't get it. I am more confused than anything else.

I don't have an Alexa, but it sounds like it'll be interesting for the people that use one. :) It was a passion project that didn't take away anything from future content so I don't understand why people are so angry.

FYI and wonder if this will change people's answers:
