The Sims 5 will be a Reboot
Just think about this when Maxis/EA put up a job posting to the Sims4 they say Sims 4 but there are the other job postings the just say The Sims. I have been wondering why the 2 job different job post...

The most of time they get rid of the number for marketing reasons.
macOS instead of macOS 11 or XI
Both SimCity’13 and NFS’15 are reboots. SimCity was literally a dead franchise until EA rebooted the franchise as an online multiplayer game. NFS reboot was an always online game unlike the ones before it. It’s more than marketing that classifies those games as reboots instead of sequels, or spin offs.
OSX -> macOS is just branding. It’s not like you’re getting a completely new operating system when you update from one to the next.
Sims 5 will totally be a reboot. Best way to curtail expectations is to make it clear the game won’t be bound to the way previous games did things. Sims 4 is a literal sequel that’s been treated like a reboot and that’s why so many people have issues with it.
