Thanks for sharing. For what its worth, what I’ve seen of the world looks beautiful. The sims I might need to get used to, but another game is another game right… its going to be different! It must be crazy in that studio at the moment. Do you know if we will be seeing more from the game soon?
But I wouldn’t want it any other way! I am unfortunately not privy to upcoming press releases, those things are way above my head.
