Thank goodness they never went through with making The Sims 4 an online only game! They can have fun online features like The Gallery and it works wonderfully but no need to take it all the way. Really makes you wonder how stupid they would be for even considering taking away the whole identity of a single-player creative experience that is the success of The Sims?! I am so happy it wasn't Sims that had the fiasco that was the latest SimCity. They had a successful series in Sims City games and destroyed it by changing its core identity as god single-player experience to constant online experience. Hope they really learned from that one! Leave my Simmy game alone! lol
!00 per cent agree with this.
Many of us told them this very thing when we first got word Sims 4 was going online - as was Sim City and we started protesting in large numbers. Then when Sims City came out - they saw we meant business and even though we were all also Sims City fans - we would not buy and didn't. I think it opened their eyes finally - even when the years of Sims Onlines failure to attract us didn't- EA finally got the message when Sim City failed too. I hope they keep those memories in mind for future Sims series games.
I do not put the mobile type Sims games in the same league with the Sims for pc/Macs. They are not my concern, nor my interest - and they sort of have to be online. That's fine. My only concern is the real Sims series.
EA surely haven’t given up on turning almost all their games into subscription based online live services! Just read the interview on http://www.gamesindustry.biz/articles/2017-11-14-ea-live-services-plus-subscriptions-equals-uncapped-monetisation ;)
