EA has released their official prepared remarks from their Q2 2021 Fiscal Year report where they talked about all of their games, current profits and plans for the future.
EA’s CEO Andrew Wilson also talked about The Sims 4 and the growth of the game and its community. He shared two interesting facts: the first one being that The Sims 4’s player base is now the biggest in the history of The Sims Franchise. The other interesting information is that they expect the next year to be another strong year for The Sims 4 – presumably in new content and releases.
Check out what they’ve said:
- Around the world, our multi-platform Sims community continues to grow, and our Sims 4 player base on PC and console is now the largest in franchise history.
- The Sims 4 and Apex Legends show how we build great live services into strong ongoing businesses. This quarter we’ll launch our 10th expansion pack for The Sims 4, along with some important game updates that add even more cultural customization options for players.
- We also expect another very strong year for The Sims 4, a testament to the strength of that community as it enters the seventh year of live service.
Nooo. Time to get the next base game for TS5 ready
gosh no
I hope not!
YES! 4 was never made to be a main game like this, it was supposed to be online mmo. That’s why it’s so awful in how limited it is especially compared to the choices available in 3. Like just give me create a style back, more personality choices than 3 traits. The game was broken from the minute it launched, and no matter how many half finished packs they put out they can’t fix the base coding involved to make it a good game. They need to stop rely on the modders to fix their mess and make the game worth playing and actually put effort and content into their own packs. And that’s just not going to happen till 5.
No
4 has its flaws, but I’d prefer them to fix and if necessary even rewrite the game (or make it open-source, duh). Don’t want to spend $200 again for some proper gameplay, and $450 with all my packs
God help us I’ve been so done with this game for years now. Every time I go backto ts4 I just get more disappointed In where the franchise is at right now.
