Sims 3 - REMASTERED
Old beloved games such as Crash Bandicoot and several others have been remastered and brought back for newer generations and the old. What if rather than Sims 5, they remaster sims 3? Updated graphics and a few changes here and there but the same features.

Race Against the Clock: Can your elder sim turn back the clock before their time runs out?
Except for some people the old look and feel of sims 3 is not worth going back to. Im huge on graphics. And I also dislike the sliders/create a sim mechanic in sims 3, I think it could use some revapming. It would be fun I think to update that game.

No I'd rather get a new sims game however I'm in no hurry to see Sims 4 End. Now what I'd love to see is Origin make Sims 3 64 bit compatible in an Update. It would run so much better.
Im not in a hurry either. I will be playing Sims 4 , for at least another 10 years. I own and will continue to buy all the Sims 4 games.

Yeah they are the worst
Nothing could compare with the excitement of playing "The Sims" for the first time when it first came out because I had nothing to complain about and only lurked in the news forums at the time and didn't get my enthusiasm dashed. I downloaded CC galore at great expense as my monthly internet charges were £30 in 2001...a lot of money then.
If a combination of all three could repeat these first sensations for me I would be delighted. Every iteration after added some new delights and removed others but I agree that Sims 2 was the one I most enjoyed before 4. Sims 3 with World Adventures I enjoyed but it went downhill from there, (except for the building objects).

I wouldn’t pay for the very same game, not a chance. I’m more than fine with how Sims 3 looks so for me that’s just not an argument to do so. I’m only interested if they make a brand new game worth investing in. Looks wise Sims 3 wins over Sims 4 already for me (Sims 4 doesn’t make me shudder but I’m never amazed either, in 3 I often am). But looks aren’t what makes me putting down Sims 4 over and over again after a few sessions. And looks aren’t the reason I keep opening Sims 3.
64-bit game engine with sims that look like like TS4 sims in a TS3 open world would actually be pretty awesome. TS3 has SO much content in it that a remaster of the engine so it performs better would be wonderful especially if it included making things also look better.
Not going to happen, but it's nice to dream.

TS3 does not need a 64-bit scaffolding slapped around it because that would just stop some of the resource overload crashes (and Error 12s). It won't help the overworked and over-extended game engine perform any better, things worldwide (townwide) will still fall apart if the original 32-bit designed engine is not redone from scratch to take into account the expanded features that greater, and I mean much greater, resource allocation would allow for. If TS3 were really ever to be improved upon by EA, it would need to be reprogrammed entirely as a proper 64-bit program, one that could potentially use more than 800 MB of video memory (vram) because that particular limit is very 2009, and potentially more than two processor cores. Although such is not out of the realm of possibility in an otherwise infinite universe, not sure I am seeing EA spending all of that time, attention, and development effort on the game in the future. But of course no one else can do this but EA because the game is theirs and it's not open sourced, it is a proprietary still being sold program.
In the realm of fantasy though, I wouldn't mind seeing a split in the product line. TS5 could be whatever else it is EA thinks we need to have next, TS3.5 could be this 64-bit redo of the game we here on this section of the forum love so much, and the customer could choose one or hopefully both as they would in the end still be completely different games. They could even be part of the same product so as not to further divide the customer base. When we start a new game, we could be asked if we want to use the 3.5 or the 5.0 game engine. Yeah, I'm a real dreamer when I put my mind to it.

I hope that EA takes a good hard look at Steam's Sims 3 sales numbers and deduces why the Sims 4 is taking such a hard hit while Sims 3 sales are surging again and really understand what it was that made Sims 3 good and take that knowledge into the designing of Sims 5. NO MORE SHORTCUTS.
Always "River McIrish" ...and maybe some Bebe Hart. ~innocent expression~
Is there any evidence that sims 4 sales are taking a hit? Because the last news I heard it was going great. I did create this thread for just the sake of conversation, but Im actually a sims 4 fan anyday over sims 3
On your topic of a remaster, what I want mostly is an Ultimate version and for them to let GoG take over and sell it through their market place because they take care of old games. It's part of their guarantee that it will run or you get your money back. EA has done it before. Examples would be Dragon Age: Origins, Dead Space, Sim City 3000.
