I mean I could sit all day/night and play but have gained enough from Covid house arrest so try to keep active away (as far as possible) from my computer. I finally removed the Sims & Sims2 and stay with 3 & 4. Even with being retired I don't really have enough time to play everything as it is. I have it on my wishlist, but have not been watching the development, hearing this gives me hope. So many little things I have thought about that some of their developers are thinking about, too.

One interesting thing was about gradual aging that you don't actually have to be older (mentally? and physically?) to start looking older.or getting taller etc. Hopefully they won't be the forgotten population this time. One of their devs was very interested in what type of gameplay could be extended to the elderly. They have been very interested in hearing ideas about elderly Parafolk ideas. I wonder if anyone has ever done the math for this, it would be interesting to know how much each gender/age group gets as opposed to the overwhelming number of female sim items. Especially with the talk of an online component, which is an auto fail in my opinion.Īdditionally, I need a game that gives equal love to all ages & genders, as opposed to the majority of the CAS focusing on female adult sims, while a tiny amount gets split between other genders and ages. Of course, they could surprise me and release a proper Sims sequel, but currently I feel the odds of that happening are not looking so good.

I have zero desire to start this all over again with Sims 5. When I look at how little time I spend playing Sims 4, versus the time I spend in playing Sims 3 and other games, I simply cannot justify how much money I have invested in Sims 4. If Paralives ends up disappointing at launch, I will skip that too. However, I do like this type of game a lot, and I have no problem spending money on a good game, so it will likely be Paralives for me as long as Paralives does the Sims better than the Sims. It is extremely unlikely that I will buy Sims 5, because I very much dislike the direction they are taking the series.

When will paralives come out
