I'm excited for Paralives and I'll never be hard on them. Frankly, everything that was confirmed and revealed to the public is already way better than anything that came out from The Sims franchise in the past 6 years..
I understand Paralives looks promising, but did you get to test play it yet?
The reason I'm asking is that with such high level of expectation there is no room for disappointment.
I do hope it's the game for you if and when it will be released.
No. Obviously I didn't play it and you know it!
I know where Paralives comes from and I will never put expectations so high for a completly new game. And I'm sure I'll be impressed because the team behind it is listening the fans and confirming what can be done or not.
The Sims 4 is just a sequel that failed to impress me! It comes from a place that has been doing this for two decades now. After playing more than one decade they came with a beta incomplete version that in my opinion still not worth it after 6 years!
Its a different story and being a game from a multymillionaire company like EA, they don't deserve my tolerance.
As a simmer and as a long time consumer until 2014, I feel that they don't care about me and people who think like me (and there are a lot!).
Maxis is not a newbie. The Sims used to be good until the latest installment!
Also, this is why the community is deeply divided!
If you like the game go play it!
I don't understand why people who like the game bother so much with the "negative" opinions. You are not the ones in this community who feel unhappy and have to rely on the old games that have literally no attention from the company anymore!
Are we a threat to The Sims? Why are some players so defensive? Maybe because we have a point and you are affraid of consequences. I can tell the SimCity disaster in 2013 caused some fear in the simming community.
And I have to make it clear that I'm talking about valid opinions! I'm not talk about hating! Hate we can all easly ignore!
I just wish I could feel integrated in this gaming community again like I was since The Sims 1 to The Sims 3 cycles. It is the franchise I love and still admire the most (of its past obviously) and it is very frustrating to not be able to enjoy being part of this sims experience even when I tried so hard during so many times. 6 years is a lot and as time passes I feel more and more disconnected and less engaged in this community.
