https://realsport101.com/sims5/the-sims-5-this-is-what-the-community-wants-to-see-from-the-new-game/ I can't help thinking that this is a dumpster fire waiting to happen.

To be honest, Sims is the only game I play. I used to play SimCity, too, back when it was still a thing. I sadly didn't get a chance to play Sims 1 because I didn't have a computer back then, but I had all of the expansions for TS2 and TS3 (plus several TS3 store sets) and I have all of the packs for TS4 that have been released so far.
I LOVE every version of this game I've played...but for me, it's not about even about gaming, at least not gaming in the traditional sense. It's about creating. It's about stories and characters in environments that I can design...and it's always served as a refuge where I could completely escape from the real world every now and again. I want my sandbox. No guided gameplay; no other players.
To make it a multiplayer online game and add a social element takes the "happy hermit safe haven" away, at least for me. If I wanted to play multiplayer games, I would. If I wanted to interact with actual humans while I play, I would...but that's never been the purpose of gaming for me. (Again, not a traditional gamer in any way. I'm purely a Simmer) so if Sims 5 goes the multiplayer online route, I'm not at all likely to follow. I'll stay with the single player versions that let me have my much needed breaks from the real world and social interaction.
