    OMG! I'm IN LOVE with the graphics and characters already! On their facebook page they have a pic of the inside of a farmhouse dining room and bedroom, sooooo cute and realistic! It's my type of game.

    I am kinda sad that there won't be modding ability tho.

    The facebook did say you could play online with your up to 5 friends.


    Yeah, I like the building style a lot! I'm not going to use the multiplayer mode though for the town, but I might for visiting all those other places. I wonder how all that will work?


    If it works something like the multiplayer in Animal Crossing I'm okay with it. You can have friends you approve visit only when you open your town gates and they can't actually do anything, like they can't move stuff around or place new stuff etc.

    Honestly at this point, I'm probably not going to be getting this game, simply because of expenses and not enough time to play, but I'm def. gonna keep an eye on it because maybe one day in the future I might. It looks interesting anyways. I'll give it time and see what people say after it's been out for awhile


    So that means it's not.always online, right? I hope so.

    I like how it's set up so far. Also estimated to be released in Q3 of 2021, so this could be the first of the next gen life simulation games.coming out!

    Ugh God, that hyper-realism look. Pass, pass, pass.

    And multiplayer? Nope, I'm out.

    I like the way it looks and will be interested in seeing more about the game. I think it looks promising.

    So no modding and no CC? I'll pass,since mods and CC make sims games more enjoyable for me. I'll wait for Sims 5 and the game from Paradox Games.
    Why do you hide inside these walls?

    Whats wrong with multiplayer? I dont mind it if it's optional. And it is friends multiplayer so you probably can only play with people you have added as friend on whatever platform it will release, or you need to make a server with a code.

    The minute mutliplayer is added, single player gets left behind. That's what ended up happening with TS4 and why we're working with what we have.

    It looks stunning. I have been happy with Epic games so far except Fortnite.

    Looks a bit too realistic for my tastes but I’ll wait to see the final product.

    It lost me when I saw a US Mailbox. I'm getting a bit fed up with the emphasis on US culture at the moment.

    Maybe the dev is from the US. It does have a global map that allows you to visit other countries as tourists.

    I think more game studios from other countries should try to create a life simulation game that reflects their country and culture. I'd be interested in that.

    I still don't think it's right to mention Sims 4 competitors on the official Sims 4 forum.

    It seems... distasteful.

    This subject matter feels like it belongs in Off Topic at best.

    Love the way the characters look! Love the way the animals look! And that front yard! With the grass. Wonder if there'll be lawnmowers. 😀

    The future for simulation games is looking good.

    It looks like the developer runs the Discord in both English and Russian, and the FB page is in Russian as well. Not sure of their nationality tho.

    If they're Russian, it would be nice if they set up another town that reflects that culture. I hope the Russian places on their global map is accurate. It would be nice to visit Moscow or St. Petersburg in the game!

    It's being made with the Unreal Engine 4. I've been speculating about The Sims 5 being made with this same game engine, so I want to see how this particular game turns out and maybe gauge how it might be like or unlike TS5 and vice versa.

    Another competitor... GTA V :p


    Lol, it's not quite the same! More like an M-rated version!

    M-Rated... weapons ? blood ? violence ? Like the real life ?

    We can't assume right away that it will follow the path of Vie. Besides, it's not like we've already put money into this. In the meantime, I think it would be good to encourage the dev to make it the very best it can be.

    I'm saying that GTA V is M-rated, not this game, so not quite the same!

    I mean personally I'm not a huge fan of realism but this looks promising and I'm an open minded person so I will keep an eye on this.
    Where's my Sims 5 squad at?
