With the success of Sims 4, I honestly don't see EA attempting to cater to Sims 2 and 3 fan bases anymore.
I know it sounds harsh but it's just not feasible for many reasons. It's the natural process of a long running franchise.
Whether it’s Sims 2/3 fans or Sims 4 fans, there did seem to be a backlash on the lack of toddler thing...And the devs did end up including them, eventually. And the gurus did say they are listening to feedback, and I saw lots of feedback that was similar, whether a Sims 4 fan or whatever.
A life simulator / sandbox game would still have all sorts of fans demanding for the same kinds of stuff: toddlers, seasons, pools, retail, restaurants, pets, etc.
I really didn’t see a difference in the feedback. Many simmers, old and new, seem to want some similar things and want lots of content in a Sims game, regardless of whatever iteration it is.
If the next Sims game has an open world then we would know that they listened to feedback. At the moment I am not convinced
Well, I didn’t really care for open world in Sims 3, and I’m more of a Sims 2 fan, so I’m not bothered by a lack of a fully open world myself. Open world is not usually on my list of priorities for some types of games. Not every simmer is into full-open worlds.
I’m more concerned about toddlers and creative tools and options at base game. Those would show me more of the feedback.
If they don't include toddlers in the next game I would laugh. Not because I would find it funny, but simply because no one usually makes the same mistakes twice right? :no_mouth:
On a serious note though I would be surprised if they omit toddlers again, the feedback in the community was huge. It took too long to amend that but they did it in the end. There was community spirit behind it but more should be done and I feel that only in the next game would The Sims ever see a worthy successor to TS3
