Sims 5 should be it’s own “console”.....
It should be it’s own console.
Rather than relying on hardware from computers or game systems, wouldnt it be amazing if it was its own small console, with the hardware designed around one massive game, that can connect to computers or TVs? (Yes... connect to both... as in play connected to a PC, a Mac, or right to a tv depending on your preference. Plugin a mouse + keyboard to play just like you always would with sims games. Think of it like a very specific external hard drive... and no! Not a console like Xbox or PS... use some imagination here for plum sake!)
I’m picturing something small, almost portable, that can process a massive base game and can also download expansions as they come out.
Yes, if something like that is possible it would be expensive... but wouldn’t a high functioning, detailed, and complex game be worth it?
If the hardware is designed around the software I figure the game could be really intensely intricate: open worlds, advanced AI, powerful customization, almost limitless expansion, even optional VR and online aspects?
I’m just saying, I hope we see something like this. A huge new version of the game that would be expanded on for several years without being weighed down by any outdated engine.
The possibilities of it could potentially mean; gameplay that is very realistic but also larger than life, an entire simulated planet to explore with different environments and cultures, even time progression where the world changes and you could play in different time eras (pre-history, dark ages, renaissance, victorian era, the roaring 20s, the 60’s, modern day, futuristic time eras, etc.) Just think of the possible expansions, we could even see optional additions that would let you actively control sims as you would in other genre games like racing, first person shooters, EA sports games, etc. bringing it beyond a life simulator.
