I'm confused.. everybody seems to be turned off by the potential of TS5 being multiplayer, and I'm not really sure why. Think of how fun it would be to visit your friends towns/worlds, interact with their sims, and go on dates/adventures/etc.
For those that only play singleplayer, then EA should introduce the multiplayer style in a way that won't impact the individuals who prefer to play on their own. EA should look at games like Minecraft, Animal Crossing, and Stardew Valley. All of these games allow you to get the full experience in singleplayer, but also allow for multiplayer experiences as well. How awesome would it be if TS5 was like this?
Personally? I've no faith in their ability to create a fun, fleshed out experience in single and multiplayer. They can't even do it for this game and many games have at least one experience suffer. Between EA's track record and
all of the numerous criticisms of TS4 with the Sims series noticable dip in quality and content with every passing game... multiplayer is an awful idea.
