Count me out if Project Rene spends so much time trying to be viable on a flippin' mobile phone that the PC portion has to suffer. I've had enough of that lowest common denominator stuff with TS4.
This. What is the point of buying a gaming PC and then getting a mobile game for your one game of choice? There is already a Sims Mobile for mobile players. Sims 1 was a PC game... and those of us who have purchased and played all of the iterations, we're PC players. The greediness of trying to make a product appeal to all platforms is going to result in a product that gets discarded by the longtime loyal fans immediately and then shortly after by the new mobile"fans" when the next mobile bling game app becomes downloadable.

I will not purchase Sims 5 if:
1) The game is not open-world. I'm not settling for open-neighbourhoods (that's a cop-out).
2) If there isn't a way of locking people out of my game. I don't want multiplayer, I don't want someone roaming around in MY house, in MY world...in my game...trying to ruin my sim's spousal relationship. I don't play this game to socialize, I play it to get lost in my own little world.
3) If the game looks anything and plays anything like Sims 4. I'll stick with Sims 3 if that's the case and say goodbye to Sims when I can't play the game any more.
For your #2, I'm more worried about my game being hacked or corrupted by an attacker leveraging exploitable bugs in the multiplayer game. I don't play multiplayer games at all, but I've heard stories about players ruining other players experiences just for the lulz :neutral: And based on EAs history of buggy Sims updates and releases... I don't trust them to have a shift-left mindset during development. I want an option to play entirely offline as a single game solo worlds player. I don't want anyone in my game for any reason, and with these kind of "options" what security risks is EA opening up my game to?
