I think they should. I don't think Will Wright's original intention was to target children. I am actually happy that they made Sim spin-offs for younger ones, such as My Sims. I think they should continue to keep games like that and develop them so that the original franchise doesn't lose the original touch.
Bachelor parties? The Sims 4 could never!
Look at those facial expressions. The emotions... the happiness of each Sim. None of this emotions system was ever needed. In my opinion... these Sims were a lot smarter back then.
I don't want an "adult-rated" game like The Witcher. If I want to play that fantastic game, I'll open it up. I just want the original feel of The Sims back in the franchise again.
@Hestia I agree. The Sims 4 has become watered down, perhaps as an effort to appeal to more people, but they are losing touch with what made the game great in the first place. I don't believe The Sims targets young children either. I started playing when I was 14. By that age, I had more of an appreciation for the tools and gameplay and an understanding on why things are the way they are. For example, imagine an 8 year old trying to build a house. Not going to end well. The building tools are also watered down. Now I acknowledge that they did introduce some good things, such as wall heights but there are missing features from the sims 2 and 3; TS4 focuses too much on prefabricated content and causes havoc on builders like myself. The spinoff, My Sims is an appropriate game for young children and I would encourage EA to continue with both series.
