They could do a lot better I think.
Probably just lazy or not having the right mindset
bad art design
who is they? EA closed down maxis
roasties.... roasties never change
Too much money and EA. Began treating it like shit and didn't care about good programming or game design. Simple tricks and railroaded gameplay worked on the masses of idiots(females) that became the fanbase.
Instead of fun dynamic AI they focused on my little pet shop expansions and milking it with no passion.
The Sims team
Didn't a fire destroy pretty much all of Sims 3 and the developers had to practically remake the entire game again in half the time since the deadline was coming up?
>that became the fanbase.
Females have always been the bulk of the fanbase since 1
>what went wrong with Bella Goth
Well, I fucked the shit out of her everyday in front of Mortimer and her kids, and made her bear my children for 10 years while staying in their house.
>Females have always been the bulk of the fanbase since 1
t. not alive back then
I just installed the first game for nostalgia but everything feels so bloated with all expansions.
Went from making an efffort to realising they could just make money. Sims 1 was designed as a serious social engineering sort of game instead of MAKE PRETTY HOUSE AND PRETTY LADY. Even Sims 3 had decent work put into it. 4 is just a mobile game.
nah that was a sims 2 rumor and i can't remember but i'm pretty sure it was proven false
Is this loss? I think the order should changed.
I've no idea but that would go a long way to explain why it is the most unoptimised piece of shit ever made
Kek sure, just look at the majority of Sims 1 fansites and communities
they realized they could make same game multiple times with minor graphics and content tweaks. Same reason the entire industry is dogshit that should be ignored.
>bottom right with the girl peeing herself
Legit the best picture of the bunch.
that's a funny costume
>just look at the majority of Sims 1 fansites and communities
Yeah now you child, that isn't any indication of what it was like back when sims 1 was new. Sure there were probably more females playing than other games but they didn't become the majority until midway through Sims 2 and weren't pandered to until late Sims 2. Also they were always over represented in the custom content scene because most guys could care less about making shitty recolor 200 of shitty jacket 45 or making fuccboi celebrity based sims to act out gay roleplay fantasies.
Sims 1, 2 and 3 are not small content tweaks wtf
Nothing went wrong. It was a mediocre mobile game before mobile games existed.
It hasn't strayed from its original goal. S3 was still the best but S4 isn't bad for what it is.
add all the sims1 expansions and tell that bullshit was worth starting over for outside graphics/system performance.
>fat chick is the only one wearing leggings
lol
Loved 1 & 2, even bought the expansions.
Bought the base gae of 3, but I wont ever buy another one until they include base stuff lke Pets and toddlers etc in the standard game.
Though more of the Stories standalone games please, they were neat.
> Sims5
>in 3 elvira was a little girl
why?
Anyone here ever played Singles?
I "played" it enough to see skin without mosaics and uninstalled.
Wasn't it a sexy knock off of Sims 2?
>t. not alive back then
I was alive back then. Every single time in school, whenever a girl got an 8 pack of CDs from a guy, it was Sims + all the expansions. It was the only game that girls played.
gotta get the cunny crowd when you can
Doesn't mean it was the majority or the bulk of the community.
did you just call me a liar?
Yes it does. Guys played FPS and RTS games on computers, or emulators. Only girls played Sims. For more than a few day, anyway.
EA
No. Just that what you said doesn't change what I said.
No it doesn't. All it was, was evidence that girls played it not that they were the majority of the players. The guys statement even says that the girls were getting it from the guys which means that even at his school girls were at most half of the sims playerbase (assuming there were no boys who owned the sims and didn't give CDs to girls).
>the girls were getting it from the guys which means that even at his school girls were at most half of the sims playerbase
No, girls got the games from the guys because we knew how to download and burn a game cd, they at best could run solitaire or drink coca cola with wine.
guys were playing CS, AoE, Quake 1/3, etc.
?
>guys were playing CS, AoE, Quake 1/3, etc.
You keep repeating this as if it means guys couldn't possibly play these games and the sims at the same time. Like you are so offended at the notion that anyone with a cock and balls would play this game that you believe is only played by girls that it fucks with your perception of reality or some shit. Even if we go outside of your shitty adolescence the majority of computer owners back then were men. Men were the ones mostly interested in computers, most women could care less about them. By your own admission women were technically retarded. If you follow this logic it is unlikely that women would be the majority of the playerbase, which you would know as fact if you were in fucking middle school when the game was new god damn.
>Sims + all the expansions
How the fuck were you still in school by the end of the sims 1 lifetime and act like you know what shit was like.
USE YOUR INTELLECT, EVADE MY BLOWS.
I'd say simes to sims 2 to sims 3 was a worthy upgrade, although they should have included more content in the base versions, I agree. Sims 2 over 1 introduced everything to a 3D environment, so starting over was a necessity. Sims 3 introduced the open world, go anywhere at any time which was noteworthy, even if in the end it ended up being an absolute clusterfuck of bloat. Sims 4 on the other hand... nothing so far has made it worth needing it's own new game, unless you consider rumors that it was originally supposed to have online play but they canned after the sim city always online backlash.
*weren't in middle school
I dunno about other girls but to my sister sims was like beta girl crack.
TS3 > rest
Look at this place, fifty-thousand sperm used to live in this vagina, now it's a ghost town.
As if boys didnt just put in the Sims 1 base game and played le burning house/drowning in the pool game the. Uninstalled
No? You played with the magic expansion and uncensor cheat
>. Sims 1 was designed as a serious social engineering sort of game
what?
Did Will Wright said that? He pretty much thought he perfected The Sims after the base game, man had he had it his way the series would be dead right at year 2000
The proper manul in the big box of the original game was full of all sorts of stuff about how society works and how people work with eachother etc.
it was EA's idea to say "Cool, but what about FUCKING MAGIC!"
> "Cool, but what about FUCKING MAGIC!"
As if the base game didn't already have fantasy elements or was already unrealistic.
Why do girls like The Sims so much? Do they play it to pretend they're married to Chad?
It's like playing God, but on a more personal level.
That and the fashion "mods". Sims is a virtual dollhouse.
it ticks boxes. It's creative, they are in charge, and they can download character models of My chemical Romance or the Winchesters and make them all fuck eachother to death.
Sims 1 came out when I was in middle school, and it was around when I was in highschool. Yes, guys played it too - for a few weeks or so, after that the novelty wore off. The only ones still playing it for more than a few weeks were girls. It was my friggin childhood, man.
its non-violent and not competitive. A great deal of it is spent designing and organizing your home
>bottom right with the girl peeing herself
no that's just her shadow
but it would be hot if she did, she's a qt
Is TS4 as popular among girls these days?
My nieces don't seem to care for it, more into Minecraft and FNAF etc.
Then why is she holding her crotch with a red plumbob above her head?
Point was, more effort put into that than the others at least
No Will Wright.
I'm still salty about Spore. And you can fucking bet Will too.
...
i've never really played the sims, i guess you're right
but that's definitely not piss on the floor, least of all her piss
I hate this image because it gives 3 more credit than it deserves, Bella didn't look anything like that in the game, she was a fucking monstrosity like every other pre-made child. Even that man-faced tranny was better than the real Bella
reminds me of that icarly chick
