Sims 4 has many more years left confirmed as of yesterday

Oh dear..

This should not surprise anyone, considering they said the exact same thing last spring. 1 year later doesn't change "many more years" into "it's almost the end".

I feel it needs a large grain of salt considering it is hiring material, but who knows how it will shake out.

Are people's computers going to be able to handle it?

I just upgraded my desktop computer with an RTX3080OC, from an i7 4790k, with the Sims4 running on an SSD (560MB/s) with DDR4 RAM (32GB) to an i9 12900K, with the Sims4 running on an M.2 NVME (7000MB/s) with DDR5 RAM (64GB) and I cut my loading times by half on my old save and performance is what one would expect the game to perform normally. And this is on a computer that I invested for the future, this is supposed to last me for quite a long time and run many new games on Ultra.

So I have no idea how people are going to be able to run their old saves for several more years?

Sigh and being I had decided to stop supporting this travesty of a sims game this is indeed distressing news.

Great news for our TS4. Maybe we can get everything we wont out of TS4 now. I know they've been saying more years to come but this blog yesterday actually confirms it's still on for many more years. I just hope the game engine can handle it but I'm sure Maxis will find a way to make it.

This is disappointing and a bad idea.

Have no fears, we got ideas for years, like
Bella becomes a Servo?
Maybe Vlad gets a cellphone?
Has Bob ever owned a bear costume?
Or, how 'bout a crazy wedding pack?
Where nothing happens, and do do do do do.
Sorry for the kit show.

Well the new wedding pack seems to be probably the last pack i can load on mine without upgrading something and I'm not risking it by adding anything :sweat_smile:

so I will just not buy new packs and pray base updates don't bloat like mad

do think you need monster of computer by now to play all packs in the game so i wish they would at least be honest of that in their spec requirements/recommended specs for the game cause its still saying you can play on potato when really thats probably just for the base game alone

As we look towards our future, continuing to create entertaining and unexpected content for The Sims 4 for years to come while also building the future of The Sims franchise, we want to hear from all kinds of voices.

Yay! ?

Those hoping for Sims 5 or another Sims title shouldn't give up hope. The two titles could possibly run concurrently.
