Probably why there is that saying divide and conquer too because of the Sims community being so divided now, any gaming company can swoop in and end the Sims community like what happened with SimCity. Sims was just a side game of SimCity and look what happened to them. Same could happen with the Sims too, our community could easily die and kind of has already. Honestly our community is kind of a joke to the rest of gaming communities now with frequent comments of "Do people still play that?" Then again the world is kind of falling apart anyways, so Sims probably will too. Might as well enjoy the ride while it lasts.
Wow this really shook me, you are right SimCity was the "major" game once and the Sims was the "minor" side project and SimCity did end up falling apart in 2013. Who would have thought a few years earlier. And this could totally happen with the Sims as well.
Yeah I only recently reflected on it. All the side game talk and then I'm looking back at my roots of the Sims was that I started playing it as the side game of the game I started on SimCity. I hope it doesn't, but yeah I do like having a backup plan and honestly just healthy killing monopolies anyways. I really do hope that Paralives and some of the other games come out do well. I think having more gaming options will help a lot if they are released before the Sims 5 comes out. Why I am kind of ok with the Sims 4 lasting longer too, gives more time for competition to release their games. :)
