would you play rene as a subscribtion ?

I’m old fashioned and I like to own what I paid for. I much prefer to spent money and just own the thing even if I’m not online. This is actually the only thing that worries me about new Sims game.

Yeah, I have to vote no :( The idea of having to pay a monthly subscription to play a sims game for the rest of my life sounds costly and stressful lol.

same here

I put "no" but I guess realistically if the cost ended up being cheaper long term than buying a bunch of DLCs over the life of the game, I might. But it would not only require it to be very low cost, but content would have to be released very frequently for me to justify paying.

But probably not, really.

I feel so burned by sims 4 lack of in-depth game play, simple little details from previous iteration that are not included, the lack of everything on s4 release date... my list can go on and on but I'll stop there... Too late for long story short, but no... i absolutely will not pay a subscription for sims 5/project Rene. As a matter of fact, at this moment, I have absolutely no desire to invest in the next generation of the sims. I'm turned off just at the thought of it...

Hubby is planning on retiring in the next few years. He's our only income currently. So that once we're strictly on Social Security, if I get into paying monthly just to pursue my currently hobby, that will be difficult. I need to have access to my main genealogical site, which will be hard enough. I will be sticking to Sims4, so that I can play whenever I wish.

I would never pay for a subscription game. There are plenty of games I own that I bought and they can entertain me till the end of time even if all future video games became subscription based.

I also won't buy TS5 if it does the same DLC model as TS4, ie having a very barebones base game with overpriced DLCs for basic game features like seasons and pets. A few reasonably priced DLCs is fine as long as the base game stands on its own without any DLCs attached. I assume EA will want to do this DLC model, and that's their choice, but I won't be buying it in that case.

? Maybe

It's a no for me, I have to pay for so many subscriptions already. I'd like to be able to play the game without worrying if I'd be able to play it next month because of lack of funds.

This game is expensive enough as it is. I can't see paying monthly or yearly fees just to access the game after I've shelled out for the initial purchase. Having to pay to add DLC later is one thing, and I maybe if they made DLC free I would consider it. But I don't see DLC ever being free even with subscriptions.
