It's abundantly clear that the only correct way to pronounce it is live rhyming with give.
Since Sims 1, the developers meant the three modes as to build, to buy, and to live. The parallelism makes this obvious. Moreover, live pronounced like alive doesn't make sense as it's NOT a live TV broadcast...you can pause and fast forward...definitely not live like alive!
Live like alive isn't an alternative, it's just incorrect. :smile:
... uh, what? Live like give only makes sense if you have a simself. So you're basically telling us that there's only one right way to play, and all of us who choose live like five/hive are playing the wrong way? Even though we're by far the majority??
1) I was being tongue-in-cheek. It's a silly, low-stakes debate.
2) The majority of people pronounce it the correct, official way as in "give." I notice that this small thread has an unusual amount of people who say it like "alive"
3) "there's only one right way to play" No, this is a silly ongoing debate on pronunciation, not about telling people how to play the game.
