Since there was no available USgamer Sims expert, I thought I’d volunteer to head down to EA’s Redwood Shores offices and give an “everyman” take on the game. I thought it might be fun to see what happens when someone with only the most cursory understanding of the Sims series is dropped right into the very deep end of the game, with no guidance or instruction.
The depth of my Sims ignorance was immediately hammered home during the pre-playtest brief. My lack of context and reference meant that a lot of its detail was lost on me. However, I did get the gist of it, and the long and the short of it is that smarter Sims are what fans can look forward to in this fourth outing of the series. Smarter Sims that now feel, and express emotions that are influenced by interactions with other Sims, objects, and events. These, apparently, will help you bring your stories to life?
