not that i had any expectations as a sims fan, but saying what amounts to "we're just gonna keep releasing paid content for the sims 4 forever" is pretty low even for EA

Can't wait to rent my own virtual home in the Sims with real money.

china is the real disruptor. after the collapse the sims will exist in an open-source eden because we won't have to deal with this copyWRONG mess anymore

Sorry, we're doing inzoi now.

inzoi

Yeah as long as they nail it there's going to be a huge reality check for EA.

The issue however is that Korean gamedev culture is MUCH WORSE than western gamedev culture and I am not convinced that their monetisation model will be something the audience will be pleased about.

Only problem there is the sims is pretty entrenched in it's genre.

[–] Awoo@hexbear.net 5 points 1 week ago

Is it really though? Or has it just literally not had a competitor?

Inzoi is the first real example of a competitor that people are actually waiting for.

a game described as a platform. that's gonna go well for sure.
