Will you pre-order The Sims Medieval?

I'm thinking about it. It appears as though the system requirements will be similar from what I've seen on various websites. I loved Oblivion for the PS3 and the new one won't come out until November...so perhaps this will help give a mixture of Sims/Role-Play for a bit :)

    I won't be pre-ordering it. It's really not my thing. I'll wait until it's released and I can hear what others have to say about it.. and then I might buy it.. when it goes on sale :lol:

    I'm not preordering either but I'm sure I'll buy it. I loved Oblivion too.

    Who doesn't love oblivion? (rhetorical question first to answer will get an evil stare) I wouldn't pre-order. I know it's gona be there when I go to buy it. I'm not in a hurry :P

    I definitely will NOT be pre-ordering. But I will be open to hearing what other people have to say about it. If it looks like it's going to be good, I will be all over it when it goes half price at Christmas. :thumbup:

    I won't be pre-ordering it either but will probably end up buying when it comes out. I'm just curious to see if it has any bugs and also to see if they put more effort in this one than the sims 3.

    I wont be preordering it nor buying it...

    Maybe along down the line when the game is at a Walmart for 10 dollars because it didnt do as great as EA thought it will...then I may consider lol...sorry I just see this game failing so bad...but I could be wrong...

    I am not.
    At first it looked really neat, but after learning more, I don't think it will be fun after the first 10 minutes >.<
    I like Medieval things but I don't like the gameplay, or at least what I've seen of it.
    If it ends up being better than I'm expecting, maybe I'll get it for Christmas or something :p

    I can't decide. I LOVE the medieval theme and I've been begging for a medieval Sims game on the forums for years. But that's just it--I wanted a SIMS GAME, and that doesn't seem to be what Sims Medieval is at all.

    It's kind of ironic. Whenever I play a medieval RPG or strategy game, I just end up frustrated after I'm done with adventures and battles and wishing I could just play it like the Sims (getting my characters married, building them a house, and raising a family, etc.). Now they've finally made a medieval Sims game and I STILL won't be able to play it like the Sims. :roll:

    The quests look like fun, but what I really want is a medieval sandbox/doll house.

    I won't be pre-ordering....or buying it at all.

    I used to be big into RPGs, but I think that the thrill has passed on them, for me. Maybe a few years down the road, the idea will be more appealing.

    I will be buying it, but not pre-ordering. I won't be able to help myself if I don't at least give it a small chance.

    I've already pre-ordered. I'm devoted to my Sims in The Sims 3, but I also like to try new things from time to time. Years ago I did enjoy questing kinds of games but ever since The Sims came into my life, I prefer sandbox-style for gameplay. Still, I do want to try this one out - I like that they've kept some important elements of The Sims 3 like Create-A-Style. I think it will help change the pace in the game whenever I want a time out from pursuing the quests. :D

    ....yeah I kinda want Medieval to fail (sorry if I offend anyone) so they can focus back on the sims 3.


    I guess we'll have to wait for the reviews to see if this game is worth buying.

    Yes. I already have preordered it. Unlike most people...I really like the idea of Medieval! And even if I didn't I would still get it because I'm getting ALL Sims games. To complete the collection! :D

    I did pre-order it. :mrgreen: I wasn't going to at first. The idea of it even annoyed me since it's not an expansion. But after checking out the site for it a couple of times and watching the Town Hall videos about it on YouTube I definitely wanted it. I bought the castle stuff for Sims 3 and it's a pain building castles (though not totally un-fun. just.. a pain) and there's not a lot of medieval stuff available in the Sims store. It'll be fun to have a Sims game that's completely dedicated to medieval.

    Does anyone actually know if the Sims Medieval is about the same as Sims 3 system spec wise? Sims 3 runs perfectly lag free on high settings.

    No

    My money is going towards Battlefield 3 instead.

    (I don't like Call of Duty games)

    Nope. The game doesn't appeal to me, at all.

    I dont pre order but I'll probably get it. I just have to keep the dollars in reserve until then (fingers crossed!). :)

    I'm not getting it. I can wait for The Elder Scrolls V: Skyrim. :)

    Even after watching the 3 medieval videos today, which were very informative about the game, I am still on the fence about it.

    It looks really interesting and the style looks so pretty. But I'm going to hold off a while. The Nintendo 3DS comes out 5 days after Medieval does, and I'd rather not get a game while already busy with college, play it for a couple days only for it to collect dust for several weeks. The princess throne room is pretty though, and was my only hold back on not preordering. But I might as well wait until a good sale comes along for it.

    And besides, I've been really legacy focused lately in the Sims, so I think if I played Medieval right away I'll be disappointed that there is no generation family aging going on, than if i waited longer.
