What Rating Would You Give The Sims 4 at Launch?

Today I would give the game about an 8.5, but at launch I despised the game, hence why I voted for such a low score. I believe they really fixed the game through its updates but also through its packs. Packs like Parenthood, City Living, and Cats and Dogs I just can't play without at this point because it adds certain aspects to the game that I completely adore.

It has to be a low score, it was so, so terrible at launch. It was like they had released an unfinished game, I get chills whenever I see those white world maps.

Now I would vote around a 6 or 7, it’s certainly improved since then!

I stopped playing after a week, lol.

When it came out, I was sorely disappointed. So many things were just gone. It felt like we went back to 2000 with the number of features taken away (even though when the original sims debuted in 2000, it had pools).

Now I feel like it is around a 7 or an 8 out of 10. Hopefully, they keep improving it!

I think I should have voted for 4/10, because although it keeps the formula of what primary makes a life simulator a life simulator (hence why I rated half of the max scale), the -1 goes for the overwhelming amount of content that was omitted that existed within the sims franchise before TS4 appearance. So ignore the fact that I voted for "5", when I meant to click the choice "4".

Do you only want currently active sims 4 players to answer or anyone?

It was really a very disappointing and painfully limited, empty game in the beginning. It did improve, but at what cost? A lot of money and it clearly still isn't there, according to all the comments when someone dares to mention a Sims 5 ("They still have so much to add to Sims 4 for it to be complete!"). Comparing, a few months from now in 2013 they announced Sims 4. That made perfect sense back then, Sims 3 felt complete (even when 2 more EP's would follow after the announcement).

(not voting obviously)

I remember opening it and being shocked at how much it looked like SimCity 2013 crossed with a Facebook game

Even though I was a big fan of the sims it took me months before I buy it because it seemed to weird and empty, and lacking of so many important features. I started to play when get together came out.
So before I would have give it 1/10 but today with all the updates and packs I find it much better even though still not perfect. (7/10)

Wow I didn't realise a few others had the same rating in mind of 4
