The Sims 4 disscusion thread

Sure I can test it for you, no problem, but why do you want to know at sims 4 have harem rute?

[Beato]

That sounds like a good idea if you're more focused on getting content worth what you're paying for.  I'm sorry, but from what I've heard, the base Sims 4 game is a joke.  Like, really, EA and Maxis must be smoking ridiculous amounts of crack if they think they can pull this off without any serious ramifications.  This goes far above their standard level of earmarking content for future DLC.

I'm going to play sims 4 soon and when I play it, I'm going to test it have harem rute

[SilverLi]

but then again, apparently Sim City can't be played offline.

[Beato]

I wish there were some other good life simulator so that EA/Maxis would have some sort of competition.

I don't prefer or ignore some publishers / developers ... So i own The Sims 4.

 

But I just played a few minutes yesterday due the lack of time. The new Create a sim tool looks good and comfortable. The general handling feels like Sims 3... The new emotion/feelings part i couldn't really test so far. Maybe after the weekend I know more about that and will it report to you...

I dont understand what is wrong with sims 4, sure the game miss more open worlds but beside Of that, I think is very good game.

I dont see anything wrong with sims 4 so far

[Kendjin]

I think stand alone is not all bad. But it's less than it should be. Expensive and lacking functions from earlier games is a turn off. I find building harder in this than before and can taste the dlc already. That's why.

[Narcosis]

I don't even think that Sims 4 can be called a finished game at the moment; it suffers from the exact same problems most modern games do. Creators release a massively cut-down version of the game, and save the implementation of the said elements for future DLC's. In the end, it will result in people paying few times as much to get something they should get on the game's release, whilst it will still leave a big thirst for more content afterwards.

 

I remember TERA being like that as well and it was an awful experience; I don't even think it changed at all, judging from the current content updates it's receiving.

Sims was like this since the second game in my opinion. Still a great game and I enjoy playing it sometimes. But the dlc mentality The Sims got is annoying. You need at least the original game and 3 - 5 DLCs and it may be complete and fun to play if you look at the whole picture.

I loved everything about sims 4, it was much better than sims 3

I wish Sims 4 had some Animals like dog, cat osv, I miss that in sims 4 very much

[Kendjin]

They were a pre order bonus I'm told

[Mevvrynne]

So I haven't played a sims game ever since the second one.  When I saw a video for sims 4 and saw that I can put an insanity trait on my character, I was almost sold.  But I came to my senses and remembered that buying a sims game at launch is essentially doing it wrong.  That and paying $60 for Sims is on the grounds of ACTUAL insanity.

I yielded to my poor impulse control yesterday and purchased the Sims 4. I haven't played it yet, but I spent a couple of hours tinkering with CAS. The CAS is quite excellent. You've got such a nice degree over the proportions of everything that I've managed to replicate some people I know rather well. I'm sure the mod community will start getting all the obligatory mods from the older games rolled out for this one rather soon. I'll be patiently waiting for that. I could never stand the mosaic.

[Satsuki]

Rage quitted. Keep crashing whenever I use map mode.

No those were animal hats. Not actual animals.

[nohman]

Oh yeah?  Check out this bonus pack.  Wallmart sure knows how to sell games.

[Ezeefreak]

So after a few hours of playing time I can say I regret buying it... It isn't bad but for me as not "Hardcore-Sims 4-Gamer" it's not much different to Sims 3. The emotions stuff may be nice but thats all. Whats the most annoying is the loading screens between the parts of the city... 

 

In the end i've deinstalled it and suffer in silence ... But like I said is not that bad but it's also no masterpiece. It's a slightly developement of Sims 3 for me.

Did you enjoy the different waking styles?  I kid you not, they focused on different styles of walking over content that was standard in the previous base games.

 

It was nice, but thats all... Like you said they focused on the wrong things. Or like they said in a review here, It doesn't fail as game but it fails as continuation of Sims 3 . I think the same ways. It isn't really bad but it is simply to bad for the people who have sims 2 or 3.

As a Sim Fanatic since the first Sims game.

I just have to say...

The sims 4 seems really great

but I feel a bit empty and dead inside with it.

The Sims 3 on its base game has more content than the sims 4

Sims 4 dont even have ghosts!

 

and.. well...

emotional tools are a bit kerfuffled.

i mean in The Sims 3 when u make a woman cheat with your sims or convince her to leave her husband. her husband despises you

in the sims 4. none. of. that. exist. my sim was literally woohooing a woman in her house on her bed at the same time her husband walked in the room. nothing happened for my sim.

i told her to leave him

he still sees me as a friend.

:/

I lol'd.
