    i said yes because i played sims online loved it


    I played TSO also, and later EAland. I had lots of fun there, and was sorry it all crashed and burned. I don't know, I might be looking at that time with rose tinted glasses, because I don't think that time will ever come back. It was all about the people, just wouldn't be the same. Besides, I found making money was difficult, unless you were hosting a really popular house, and not much else to do but keep skills up.

    I doubt they're going that way again.
  • I distinctly remember when TS4 was advertised and I, naïvely, advocated to trust that it would fulfill our expectations and not to judge it before it was released. After all, TS3 was amazing, despite crashing every hour and not being able to play with all the EPs purchased if you wanted a smooth game, and the constant cash grabs...

    I'm not doing it again. My eyes are open and TS5 is going to be horrible. Free to play? OK. Suuuurrreeee. You want that top for your sim? $5. Hairstyle? Another $5. By the end of one CAS session you'll have handed EA $100. Or yeah, a monthly sub for everything, except the *special loot boxes* or some bull. You think spending over $1k is bad on TS4? Wait until a sub based sims game comes out and watch your paycheck disappear.
  • I would play Sims 5 with an EA subscription if needed, yes. Or, with a Sims 5 specific subscription. But, only if it's a cheap subscription. I would be willing to pay from $2 to $10 per month to play.

    They already lost me by chopping up expansion packs into smaller money grabs with TS4. The series seems to have gone full on corporate without giving the charm the series used to have with TS1 and TS2
