From what I've seen from Paralives and what I know about the current state of The Sims 4, Sims 5 better improve in just about every way and above all...give us, the player much more freedom to play, create and build the way we want to. Bring back the color wheel. Patterns were nice too. Open World, cars, a little less humor and a few more realistic elements would help. The humor of the Sims is part of its charm. Not asking to remove all of it, just tone it down some. Height customization, (if indie Paralives can do it, so can EA). That's just to name a few.
Bottomline, if Paralives turns out to be as good as it looks this early on and is also mod friendly (if mods are even needed)...there better be a really good, significant reason for me to pick up Sims 5. Paralives, so far has everything I've wanted in a "Sims Game" especially in the "build and buy" department and also what I've heard about their amazing personality system that that Alex and his team are implementing.
I am not a Sims hater, I've loved the Sims for nearly two decades. But I think the competition from a new life sim like Paralives is needed and long overdue. Sims 4 is not a bad game in my opinion, but I see opportunities everywhere for improvement and features still missing that should have been there from the start.
Oh yeah and an offline mode is absolutely required. Most of us go to the Sims to more or less escape the "real world"... Severing that connection to that real world is a must have for those who don't want to be connected.
