How many more years of TS4?
Does anybody know how many more years of TS4 we will have? By this, I simply mean when are developers going to stop working on it all together, and start working on a new project. It's been out for ...

@Erpe How can I completely ignore a question when nobody asked that question in the first place ;)? I have no idea about Sims 1 and 2, but I don’t see how they could have dragged on Sims 3 much longer. They added packs to that game like a machine gun at one point and it’s stuffed. Not much room for additions I’d say, if you don’t want your computer to explode. Besides, wasn’t Sims 3 built with an already old engine..? I can imagine that has been one reason for them to develop a new game. I think something similar went for developing Sims 3, the wish to create the game with an open world, which wasn’t possible with Sims 2.
I’m under the impression so far they’ve always wanted to expand the game, renew it, reinvent it. To me Sims 4 feels different. There is nothing actually totally new in there, it just seems to be more simple. And they are adding stuff to it much slower than they ever did before, which indicates they’re not in a hurry (like they clearly were with Sims 3). In fact they’ve stated that the development of Sims 4 is totally different compared to the predecessors, suggesting the game in fact would last much longer than those four/five years.
I think it’s much more effective for them now to really milk Sims 4. To be honest I even wonder if we’ll ever see a Sims 5.
