If only we had Get Dragons future would not be so Grim 💀
Mixed potatosalad of thoughts
the last event left me bit salty so uh, yeah I'll just see how this one goes
Creator kits I'm kind of interested to see how it goes too but so far the collab kits we have are rather nice so could be good news
and ofcourse terribly curious about the update 👀
as for Rene and the future uh... *escapes into my coffin* too much future
I suppose I might watch that movie in my coffin if I'm brave enough but I'll need some popcorn
I do have one more minor complaint: that logo. I'm so sick of this minimalist logo stuff. For a franchise whose identity is built on chaos, uniqueness and going against the grain of everything else, I hate seeing the logos become increasingly more uniform and bland. Minimalism was a design trend 10 years ago, surely we can move past it?
Sooo the Creator Network kinda makes me feel weird about them trying to get free labor. EA won't have to pay for kit creations anymore, they can just trade "perks" and have community members, who were getting their own monetary funding for their work from community support, do it for EA for nothing. Oh, except for the game code that their followers can put into their purchases, I guess, which isn't likely to amount to much. Essentially, EA gets free game developers who can work on the little things, the tidbits that keep the players happy while waiting for the "bigger" content, which will probably be utilizing AI more and more with every project. And requiring more fixes.
* Side-eye to EA*
I will say, though, that the collabs are always well-done. I just don't want to see creators taken advantage of and get a bum deal.
And, using the community to playtest, which could be a good thing, but is that so they can keep a tiny QA team and let players do the work? I hope not. Yeah, I have trust issues with EA, lol.
Updates would normally sound good, except for the overuse of the term "modernize" that makes me clench in trepidation. If they're messing around too much with cross-game compatibility and fiddling with the game engine and making big changes to the foundation, will it create more permanent issues? 😬
Also, can this game handle the weight of many more years of packs and updates to come? Even with a new fix-it team, it's a LOT to keep up on, and the game is sputtering a lot in various ways, still. This team will constantly be trying to play catch-up, as they still are right now.
Movie, meh. They chose Amazon. After Rings of Power, which is the absolute worst writing I've ever seen in a series, I'm not jumping for joy. Not really sure how the concept will play out, but...we'll see.
As for multi-player, that's a general no. Although, I'm not against giving it a try, but not if it looks like those pics. I'm hoping those are from the mobile, which I just won't play anyway. If Rene is a further dumbed down Sims 4, it won't interest me. But they are just early designs, so I won't say anything more until it's closer to completion.
Now. Tell me there are more fantasy themes to come; sci-fi, pirates, dragons, Egyptian mummies, Genies, Plantsim overhaul, apocalyptic challenges, adventures, superheroes, Alien planets to visit, cyborgs, and of course, Fae in both dark and light... and you'll have my full attention. 😉 Until then, I'm just hoping my game stabilizes with the next patch so I can enjoy the Grim event. (Please don't break my anti-phone mod again!) And I do really look forward to the Death pack. 🤘💀👻⚰️🖤
One last thing...remaster/remake Sims 2! Pleeeaaase! 💗Oh, and I hope there's a neighborhood editing tool on the horizon with these big plans! Come on, already. It's a staple of the previous games.
Sims 4 might be morphing into 5 if it keeps going.
Are we already playing sims 5? Just Kidding!😜
Exactly. 6 months ago or so this was in the gaming news.
All I can say is Bots and AI. It's good to have humans running this game right now. The future is coming for us.👁️
Why do so many of these things strike me as actually realistic for EA? This one in particular sent me:
>NPC Sims will appear in game with content you don't own, including clothes, traits and life states. They lose this content if you add them to your household. This is to motivate you into buying content and complete your game
Diabolical! 😅 Don't give them any ideas!
Aw yeah, time to start the Get to Buying My Pet Second Stuff Positive Thoughts thread.
