even if the sims 5 come before paralives, the love and passion this company put into their game will prevail, the difference between the two approaches (passion (paralives) vs money (sims)) will be massive.
I really don't see how this mindset is helpful. The sims community is setting itself up for failure by trashing a game that isn't even released yet. How would you feel if you were on the sims 5 design team and all you saw was predictions of your failure? Instead of discouraging the designers, we should encourage them to make a better game. Giv ether motivation, and an expectation to measure up to.
@@kingexplosionmurderfuckoff9376 ikr its annoying
@@kingexplosionmurderfuckoff9376 We do not want to encourage a publisher and developer who has made a mockery of his customers
@@kingexplosionmurderfuckoff9376 you’re confused. i’m not bashing the people making the sims 5, i’m just aware people making the decisions (the higher ups) are in it for the money. they were in charge for the sims 4 and look how it turned out. they have no reason to suddenly become overly passionate about the franchise. that’s why they want multiplayers, that’s why they consider a subscription-fee for the sims 5, that’s why they will put out tons of micro transactions
@@kingexplosionmurderfuckoff9376 it’s not like encouraging was working in the past
Just a note... Paralives people did state Occults were a consideration for expansions. They just don't want to include things like that in the base game. My guess is things that add unnecessary things become DLC and things that do not become patches and updates. Which... Is not a bad model. Then they have a highly moddable game to cover the rest. I personally like that.
They're focusing on a lot of solid framework first.
Tbf I do prefer it being a DLC. Not everyone likes having occults in their game, so it's a great idea to make it an option. They could also make A LOT of content from it (the potential is nearly endless), and it would be a great way for people to support the game further
@@987liss I prefer occults being an add on too. I mean I like ghosts in sims 4 but so many youtubers looking to play a realistic game complain about that aspect. And some of the occults one would think to add definitely are so pop culture they require more thought and development, like vampires and werewolves.
@@987liss I think they have to make an option to disable some things.
I hope so I love playing as one of the Occults, I like playing a Fantasy style family.😊❤
Ooh like Nymphs (Plant people) or Vampire something?
Paralives is starting to feel more of a spiritual sequel to The Sims 1 than a competitor to the late entries of the series, it's downright using the gameplay as a base but developed into an idea and mood so far away into the relaxed and isolated form, focused on building too, that seems more of a tribute to a legacy product than a modern rival. Can't wait to check it out.
Agreed.
I agree and that's why I liked it. For some reason I do not like modern projects anymore they do not give me the nostalgia I seek but paralives is def close to it
Thank you so much
I been a Sims player since 2006 but I'm tired of EA and their expensive DLCs. Always making sims more basic to sell you a new pack.
So I'm going to purchase Paralives the day of release because the small indie team is putting a big effort to make something enjoyable.
Just adding weather effects and seasons in the base game is enough for me. Good job Paralives!
If EA can’t get Sims 4 right in the presence, what make you think they’ll get Sims 5 right in the future?
Sims 5 will be in a new engine and it wouldn’t be rushed. Personally I’ll wait and see before judging sims 5
@@moondivine2288 sure
@@moondivine2288 there just gonna make the game to sell more packs LMAO
@@oomshaka6683 I’m not ignoring that? I know EA is a company. Sims 1-3 also had packs. All I’m saying is sims 5 can finally have a strong base game which is what matters if EA is planning on selling other packs
hope they made sims 5 vr, would be nice to enjoy sims world in vr 😊
but i agree EA game suck since 2017
I think if paralives release earlier than the sims 5, its going to be a sweet timing for them to grab a good chunk of sims player, and hopefully they will successfully hook a lot of player and made them loyal player, just like Cities Skyline successfully did. And then we can witness one more exciting-yet historical moment of the sims 5 release. Wonder what happen if EA gonna run for their money for once, GOD DID NOT LET ME BORN TO MISS THIS HISTORICAL MOMENT. Idc EA can cry in the corner with angry investors and stakeholders 😊 idc
@@jaybee4288 i think no matter what, paralives payment model will always a win for a good amount of people, i think the sims 5 business model will incorporate less desirable approach for a lot of people, especially the fact that should keep the game running in both pc and android and ios. I wonder if EA will screw this one up, as we know, ea mobile games are doing micro transactions here and there, imagine how much it will cost to keep this thing running? That’s just my opinion. Thanks for yours too, appreciate yout perspective 😯
@@jaybee4288 There is a TON of people who like the Sims and still want to play Paralives. They will get both games. Plus if they actually release prior to TS5 then they will probably keep their players because the Sims 5, with the current state of EA, will be another broken cashgrab. By then Paralives will have received lots of updates and additions. Should TS5 come out before Paralives it’ll be a rushed release and feel lackluster just like the Sims 4 did on release. Either way Paralives will prevail as an alternative life sim that’ll lure players in with a refreshing feel and exclusive features. They didn’t even have walls at angles in the Sims 5 alpha showcase. Paralives is still miles ahead
Paralives doesn't appeal ro me at all. It just seems to bland. I wish them the best though, and hope to be proved wrong.
@@kingexplosionmurderfuckoff9376 Yeah I like Ea have a competition but I am not a fan of Paralives aesthethic. If it prove it have a great gameplay I would try it for sure.
@@kingexplosionmurderfuckoff9376the game looks very promising.
For me it wasn't the mechanics that made me think of paralives, it's how it looks, how it is drawn...the aesthetic? Not so much placements of objects or anything. It's a style much different from the sims, more cartooney...more pastel colored and stuff. That is was made me think of paralives.
As for 'project renee'...I think it's worrisome that building seems to be the focus. It's like that now, building and objects over gameplay..It's just odd to me that the first thing we see for a SIMS game is not a sim but building. The way they are talking now, it's like they are focusing on marketing to new players over the existing base. In terms of aesthetic and objects to multiplayer and crosscompatibility....it's looking right now they are changing a core dynamic of the game, being a sandbox in favor of gimmics to look like a facebook game. I don't care much for that and I am not a fan of subscriptions for gaming. If I buy a game I want to own it, not rent it. IDK, as it is now, I won't be playing after Sims 4. The direction is just not for me...shame. It's the one game I enjoy playing, all 4 of them. Oh, well..
Oh well bye bye
I agree with everything you said
Agreed! I'm not paying every month for a sims game wth 😭
I'm definitely pre-ordering Paralives, the sims 4 broke my lifelong trust in the series and I'll wait until after the sims 5 releases with reviews to decide
who on their right mind is going to play monthly subscription game? I want it, I buy it that's it. If I'm tight a very specific month because of bills, or health issues, or whatever, I don't get to play?
The Paralives team said themselves that they were not interested in competition but I hope it will still manage to beat sims.
What exactly is “beating” the sims?
Interest
Personally, I’m glad they’re not interested in competition, and I hope they manage to keep themselves from caring about that aspect;piling on that kind of stress could destroy their joy in what they’re creating. What I want is for them to keep focusing their passion on making their game something they are very happy with, and then release it to the wilds and let it fly! If they do that, I believe that even if it doesn’t “beat the Sims” (some people will always buy brand name, regardless of quality), eventually it will gain a loyal and passionate following to rival or even outclass the Sims franchise.
@@unknown4957 I guess sales numbers over the lifespan of the game vs the sims 5. 🤷🏾♀️
It’s naïve to think the Sims 5 isn’t at LEAST taking some cues from Paralives. Even if Paralives ends up not being enough to compete, the threat of *some* competition where it did not exist before, exists now. And that’s got to at least have some kind of power and EA are gonna do at least the barest minimum of trying to keep up. So I do think Paralives’ existence is very relevant in the world of life simulation games. And I do think the Sims team are aware of it and that is relevant to their own process of making Sims 5.
TBH I also kind of have the idea that Project René is sort of copying Paralives, but in the sense of it's marketing: It's showing the development from a very early stage, which made me think of Paralives when I saw the announcement for Project René.
Yeah it's not really so much the graphics, but it's the UI and some subtle features I saw in Project Rene that really made me suspicious. And I don't think freebuilding is a market thing, in every sims game we've had to turn on a cheat for it and even then sometimes the items won't work
The sims was the original life simulation so any game that does it is going to be considered copying to some extent. But that is good because EA needs to be motivated to make better games and the only thing that’s going to motivate them is fear of losing players (money).
I’m rooting for paralives
I used to do subscription, online, games, and I have to admit to not missing that money drain at all. Nothing like playing because of that feeling of needing to get one's money's worth, cause that's what it started to come down to since the added value certainly did come from monthly content. Not sure how EA will make such a model successful for the Sims franchise.
EA making it subscription will make the game garbage
Paralives has taken all their ques from The Sims4 and has clearly pitched itself as rival life simulator. We really have no idea what Sims5 will become or what it will have. Even the bit of build mode we got lead to more questions than answers.
In my opinion, paralives should really come out before ts5. I know that they shouldn't rush things but they literally are competing (indirectly) against a billionaire company and given how the community is, i seriously doubt the hype will still be there when a bigger game has already been released. Just in case, i know both are years away
It would hurt my soul if Paralives fails, they are putting a lot of love into it and they deserve to receive even more love in return.
I hope that paralives will beat the sims too.
@@jaybee4288 exactly
@@jaybee4288 Well, it also depends upon the quality of the game that EA makes. If it's Sims 4 quality, ie, ridiculously and continually full of bugs that are not ever fixed and often render the game totally unplayable, than Paralives is going to pick up a much higher chunk of the market than they would have otherwise. Sims players are likely to jump across in frustration, even if the jump is temporary until EA fix their game AGAIN. The more buggy The Sims 5 ends up, the more people are likely to jump ship to a game that is not as buggy (that would be almost any other game, lol!).
It also depends upon modding, I feel. And what the modders do. If lots of modders jump ship to Paralives, than many players will follow them. Modders are a pretty essential part of The Sims games now - the game is virtually unplayable without mods to have any kind of decent gameplay. If the modders jump ship, so will the players.
It depends upon whether EA actually DO step up their 'game' and make a decent QUALITY game. The Sims 5 obviously won't have as deep gameplay as Paralives probably will - that costs money and EA are more keen to spend less money - that's why they concentrate on the cheaper option of graphics rather than depth of gameplay. You can see that in all the cuts that have been made, even in the number of animations made and the rather obvious disappearance of items that required many animation variations like the small telescope and the pool table and the complete lack of variation in the cooking depending upon what is being made (The Sims 1 & 2 & 3 all had cooking variation). EA are now aiming their game at a much younger audience, who use their imaginations more to replace the details that are missing from the graphics, don't need depth in gameplay, and who mostly care about what the game looks like. Not to mention that younger players are highly likely to convince parents to buy 'babysitting' for their children, and games are excellent babysitters. Parents will often buy stuff for their kids that they wouldn't buy for themselves.
It feels like Paralives might aim at a much older audience. The two games might end up with completely different audiences in the long term: The Sims aimed at kids and Paralives aimed at older teens and adults. And THAT is where my comment on modders comes in. Mods are made by older people, not kids. If The Sims ends up selling basically to kids, which is what it looks like is going to happen, modders who make mods for fun may very well jump ship to a game aimed at adults rather than kids. And are modders, as adults, going to be happy making mods for a child's game that they don't necessarily play? I don't think so. Modders generally make mods for games they like to play themselves. THIS, I think, might be the defining factor on the popularity of both games. Do notice that EA has recently reached out to modders - this is likely the very reason why, and I suspect that they will continually do more in that direction for this very reason. And, with the new mod platform, they have stated that a system for buying mods within that new system might very well be introduced. That is a huge step towards enticing modders to stay with The Sims. What might happen in the long term is that those who mod to make money may stay with The Sims ('cause they make money), and those who make mods for fun may very well jump ship to a game aimed more at their age group. If that does end up being the case, than mods for The Sims might end up being mostly paid mods, because the modders who make mods for pleasure and not profit have moved on to more satisfying games that they play themselves. And if they're selling mods to kids, they need them CENTRALISED, so that kids can go mad with their parents' money in one place, lol. Kids can't necessarily control masses of mods and update them from all over the place like adults can. How would all this affect the player base? Well, only time will tell...
It will indeed be very interesting how it plays out over time...
Paralives already has a characters creator and some actual gameplay, it seems that this ”sims 5” is only really a build tool for now. I don’t think it’s unrealistic for Paralives to come out ahead of it, and if it doesn’t then TS5 will be rushed and lackluster anyway. Paralives is in its own realm
Sadly, even if Sims 5 ends up being amazing and everything the community has been asking for, I doubt I’ll be able to play it: “cloud-based” and “cross-device” suggest that one will have to have a steady internet connection, so those of us without access to high speed internet or good cellular will be left out. I live in an old stone house in a valley, so even with WiFi extenders there’s really only one room with reliable internet (and I can’t use it during business hours). And don’t bother telling me to just play on my phone, because to get a cell signal I have to leave my house and run a half mile up a hill to a parking lot. I really don’t fancy playing a game on my phone in a parking lot in the middle of winter (and I’m pretty sure the security guards who watch it wouldn’t be too happy with that either). Their new EA app already kicks me off of both Sims 4 and Sims 3 when I lose connection; I had to go back to Origin just to be able to play those games in offline mode. Sigh . . .
Yup, it looks like I’m still gonna be playing sims 4…
I think they're taking ideas but that isn't a problem it's a good thing. I'm also hopeful that the sims 5 will have some completely new features that make it special, but also that they just bring back basics that they left out from past games like cars, world edit, semi-open world maybe to avoid lag,
and please include basic weather at least
I think even if there is a "subscription" there will still be an option to simply buy the DLC. Because EA technically already implemented a subscription thing, its called EA Play. They'll probably integrate TS5 or whatever it ends up being called with that, and we can still use the EA App or whatever to buy it as normal. They'll probably use the new game to try and encourage more people to sign up for EA Play more than they currently do though, because they want to compete with Xbox and Gamepass and other similar options.
Personally I hope they do a "season pass" thing like Cities:Skylines did, where you get all the DLC within a certain time period but you get to keep it when the time is over, unlike most subscriptions. I'd even pay more for a deluxe edition of base game that would guarantee me a certain number of packs released afterward.
Subscription is a no buy for me.
Satch the phrase is 'in tandem' not 'in tangent'. I heard you say it in one of your other videos but thought you might have just fumbled on the word, but when you said it again in this video I thought I need to tell you!! 😂😂
when will the shell challenge tours be out
Because EA is cash grabby I think a subscription would be garbage is because they will try to make it as expensive as possible
Completely agree
I'm definitely a minority here but the multilayer multidevice aspect of The Sims 4 got me really really hyped. If done right it could be a huge, awesome revolution on The Sims franchise!
Read up on The Sims Online and why it failed so hard.
The sims 5 is being built on the unreal engine system which specifically enhances graphics to make it more realistic so I don't see why the devs should take a cartoonish approach other than trying to compete with paralives as so many people took an interest in the game but only because the sims 4 was virtually broken and simmers weren't getting what they were promised. There should be absolutely no reason that they decide to take a cartoony approach esp when we've all been so vocal about how much we want realism
It’s beginning to look a lot like Christmas 👹
i'm so excited for paralives as i know passion projects are always charming and way more immersive. honestly, fk EA. corporations will be the death of our creativity.
hey bud l do not know but the Sims 5 as been hacked and is out now?
I feel like i wouldnt mind a subscription model for the sims 5, so long as it isnt too expensive and theres still a way to buy DLC permanently on its own. Theres a lot of packs in the sims 4 that id love to try before buying.
Paralives makes me feel alive, there's passion behind it, care and heart. They are listening to us.
Here's proof that y'all need to stop comapring
Ong shi mad annoying like 🙃 separate games for likely separate audiences as well. ppl gonna like what they like and shouldn’t expect paralives to give them everything the sims DOESN’T like they’re making a simulation game not a dam copy. (Inspired is one thing)
Whichever focuses less on being greedy via a ton of underwhelming DLC will win in the end. :) Cough, cough..
Well said, Satch! This is exactly how I feel
Sims 5 really needs to step it up and include things in BG that weren't in other Sims games.1. Basic weather: rain, rainstorms, snow 2. Apartments 3. Small selection of cars & bikes. There is SO much other content that they can profit off of in the form of DLC. Not including these basic things in BG is just super greed. IMO, People should not have to pay to have basic weather/interactions in a life sim game. They could create DLC that ADDS ON to these features, such as hobby and/or festival/holiday packs.
Also, I have a gaming PC too and when I open TS4 my PC also struggles to run it LOL.
Did you know that Sims 5 (Project Rene) got hacked on by the stingy "Pirate Sims"?
I totally agree with you on what you have said in all videos about EA and the sims 4. The sims 4 is just boring (in my opinion),unfortunately :( . Im really looking forward to see what paralives will bring to the table. But I have been wondering since the paralives team is small and we have to manage our expectation, if they could do what the sims 4 didnt- make it fun to play. what would you like to see in paralives that would give it that extra flair that would make it fun to play for hours on end ?
The major difference will be that EA will try to milk to death gamers for every small thing, while Paralives developers will not.
cought cought xmas
I have been playing the sims 4 since 2019 and I have had to give it up because it was allways the same bugs, no progress and a lot of packs to buy every time. I loved sims 4 but I am tired to get bored with everything on the game, there is no packs that reach the hype , the base game isn't worth it in 2023... There is a lot to fix and actually,I don't know if i would buy the sims 5 to have the same expience, I need a refresh so I am looking forward to paralives ❤, I am following the development of the game since the first time and it seema amazing. I expect better contend talking about the clothes and aesthetic, in sims 4 I used to download a lot of CC to play because the rest was not cool
We should be @ Sims 7 already lol
I love when companies copy each other to make the end product better for the consumer. The same thing happens with iPhones & Android phones. Copying is good when done right.
At this point - I want paralives, because the game looks super fancy, not because the sims 4 is unfixable.
Paralives: any person who loves architecture's dream
unmm subscription is a no for me, I want to buy the whole thing, and play when I want, for example I can take a break for months and play again, with no rush.
Valorant has no dlcs, you only pay for gun skins, they're just cosmetics. Game is 100% free tho
I hope Sims 5 doesn't end up as a mobile game 😦
Lol, they could never! since their games are broken and lagged. There is no way they release it on mobile.
paying monthly for a game?? 💀💀💀 **plays rochelle's "you're joking" clip**
Paralives..I bet they could release a beta ^^ that would really help them find all the bugs and release a proper and stable base game.
I don't care about sims 5. They showed they only care about money and will keep pushing new content even with flaws and issues and then not even fix them... how can I believe them when they want money for their next game? Now they'll make sure they do it right? They've started the sims soooo many years ago. I bought sims 1 when I was a kid. Was the first game that I bought. They had the time and the funds to fix their mistakes by now and didn't.
I got my money on Paralives. Too many people are excited for this and are too upset with EA's sh1t.
Sims 3 was left a mess and still being sold for full price..
Sims 4 is a mess and they'll leave it like that also.. they didn't care to fix it properly in all these years... they have nothing to promise. They want money and sims 5 will be a mess too.
And if it is not, too bad, they've lost me.
The Sims has made so much money from Sims 4 that if Sims 5 isn’t GREATLY more advanced than S4 I’m not buying it. I’ll cut my losses and stick with playing shitty sims 4
Pra alguém que joga Genshin Impact (aka microtransaction hellhole) He cries a lot about Seasons as DLC.
Oh please no.
IF EA decides to make Sims 5 a Sub game, Then I won't be play it.
I love the zaniness, lore, and supernatural elements of The Sims, but if they're gonna have TS5 be as toned down as 4, then I will have an easy time switching over to Paralives.
The fact that some people will keep defending TS4 and EA makes me sick. Like an ex friend of mine who defended her abusive boyfriend. Ugh.
Some people like TS4. Deal with it.
@@ProLifeAtheistXX there’s a huge difference between liking the game and liking the EA treatment, the broken packs, updates and promises. 🤷🏼♀️
@@regeneratedwitch I understand that. However, you wrote that it made you sick when people "defend" TS4. That doesn't sound like you like the game.
(Which is fine, btw. No one is obliged to like a computer game. I just wish people who don't like TS4 stopped acting like only their opinion mattered.)
@@ProLifeAtheistXX I never liked TS4 although I tried really hard but at this point no you can’t defend it. It’s a game that’a either tolerable or completely unplayable. And by the end of the day you were served this thing by a company who’s gathered your money and pretend everything’s right. That’s my issue and my concern is if people keep supporting this mindset, the more packs are going to be released semi working.
Thank you lots of love ❤️
Hoping that the sims 5 wont be too harsh on pc spec requirements. But on the other side i want it to look good, kinda dilema.
I don't care if the Sims 5 copies Paralives if that means we get a game that actually exists
First
Sorry, Paralives did better. Sims 4 got boring and too buggy, it triggers me out! I hope the Sims 5 goes flop, I can't wait for the Paralive's release.
Sims 5 looks really good so far but is it gonna be another sandbox game?
Не обкакайся
To be honest, I would prefer pay 40 bucks per year and have the dlc for “free”, than pay 40, 20 or 10 for each DLC
It depends on if there's always DLC or not as to whether it's better. Honestly I think EA just prices things too high. The model itself with the DLC is fine.
Sims5 already RIP. 🤢
comparing tech demo to sims 5.
The only thing that would win if they had online mode.
