I hope we get open worlds in this game.

I want open worlds to return in some capacity in the TS5, but I do believe it should not use TS3 as its template.

I think that with the advances computers have had since 2009, it would be very cheap to go with a Sims 3 template for anything. I certainly hope they are starting from scratch creating the program.

I agree with a lot you said. Rabbitholes were a cheap solution to their inability to program an active community lot. I definitely hope sims 5 does away with them. That being said, I wouldn't mind if initially there are rabbitholes, or places where your Sims disappear off the map for, as long as they are eventually opened up and become an active lot.

I still would be enjoying TS3, except that it takes nearly 30 minutes to open up a saved game. I know custom content played into that, but TS3 did have its technical flaws. It's one of the reasons I'm so eager for a new open world Simulation game to come out. The question is which company will that one be?
