I really had to give it some proper thought! I’ve seen quite a bit of Paramaker and Build Mode over the last few years, so I already know I won’t be disappointed – which is why right now, I’m definitely most excited for Live Mode. I watched the latest gameplay livestream and I can’t wait to get the chance to discover and test out all the game’s features myself!
Build mode!
Paramaker for sure. I like to write so it would be fun to make my characters and then play as them.
Paramaker! I love creating characters and the customization for body size and color is so detailed. I’m also excited for Live Mode as that’s where the real gameplay happens. I’m so excited for all of it!
Live mode for sure! I’m SO excited to start playing, I’ve been following you guys for a while now
Live mode! Been waiting for this game to come out for a while now!
Well ofcourse buildmode is up there! But I’m really excited to see the in depth personalities of the Paras, and see how the grow. 🙂
Live mode!
Live mode..i love creating new characters and telling there stories.
Build mode hypes me SO MUCH
Being able to resize and place items accurately without using any cheat codes or hard-to-remember key combinations will be much more fun to build with!!
I’d like to try Paramaker the mosy, to check how can I express myself there
I would like to try build mode as it looks different from the sims, I really like the way the objects change due to size and the colour wheel is amazing 🙂
Build mode! I’ve been so excited since they started sharing the videos in early development!!
I can’t wait to try the paramaker! But I won’t lie I’m excited to try everything!!
I can’t wait to try all the aspects!!! Watching as the game has come together has truly been such an amazing journey and I am so glad we will soon have our hands on it.
I think the first aspect I will eagerly try is the Paramaker as I love the creativity and individualisation that it gives. I cannot wait to play the game for myself!
I want to see how the game runs and how characters from different ages interact. I want to see how adults and teens are different!
I would love to try the live mode, is something different a new experience, build mode also looks interesting, but the first thing a would do is try the live mode.
Live mode. I want to see how different it could be from the Sims, if there are any unique aspects. Good luck everyone!
Paramaker to see all of the options and ways I’ll be able to personalize my Parafolk and how their traits and other things either effect or are passed down to their children.
I’m mostly excited about the building aspect of the game! The gridless building really intrigues me and I’m sure will tickle my creativity. Thanks for the opportunity ❤️
Love building things so build mode
A mix of live mode and build mode for decorating!
Live mode I’m excited to see what family stories I can come up with. I love making families with several children.
I’m so excited to try paramaker first! Although I am just excited all around to try all of it. It’s finally only just 4 days away!!!!!!
