Is The Sims 4 Endgame?
Do you truly think that The Sims 4 is the end of the road for the PC franchise? THIS ISN'T WHAT YOU WISH, BUT RATHER PREDICT

To attempt to bring a modicum of reason to the frenzied discourse, it has yet to be seen what the layoffs will mean in this situation. What we are seeing here is the reality of AAA game development. These poor souls are milked for what they are worth and then cast off after spending countless nights sleeping under their desks during crunch time. That someone has been with a studio for 20 years is an outlier, and not representative of reality.
The Sims 4 is, by EA's own admission, making money hand-over-fist. But cutting staff has been the publisher's MO even in success. I do not see an end to The Sims 4 anytime soon, nor an end to The Sims series. While I do suspect that mobile will be the future, I do forsee a Seasons EP this year. Perhaps even a University pack on the horizon. How much else is dubious.
Regardless, the market will sort things in the end. It did with the case of city builders, and I suspect the same going forward.
