…Aren’t they a bit late?
I mean, better late than never.
about a decade too late
They didn’t need to announce this. They could just fix the bugs and players would start noticing that a bunch of bugs were getting fixed.
They could have done nothing and been okay because Paradox apparently put their competitor Sims game on indefinite hold so we’re still stuck with just EA’s bullshit instead of having a choice of which life sim with an outrageous amount of paid for DLC we want to play.
I had not heard about Life By You being on hold. That’s frustrating. Paradox games go nuts with DLC too, but some competition is better than none.
Personally I don’t really mind the DLCs in paradox games.
The DLCs fund the smaller free updates and they are optional. If you want to regularly get more content for the games you love it might be worth the 20 euro (or whatever) and you absolutely don’t need to buy every single one just the ones with features and content you like.
Basically the options are: more new paid features and some new free features or no new features.
Paradox seems to be having some problems at the moment. No idea what is going on.
I think it is just an issue that management is greenlit to many projects simultaneously and now there aren’t enough resources to go around (shockingly), so they have to suspend some stuff so they can focus on other stuff.
I tried playing Sims 3 again recently and holy hell is the performance bad. Like the FPS is running at whatever I cap it at but there are constant freezes and stuttering with no FPS drops even with all the recommended performance mods. I then remembered I stopped playing for that very reason ages ago and now my desktop is like 100x more powerful.
Sims 3 was best, no? I feel like it was the full package and mostly complete right out of the box. Didn’t have the same feeling in 4 at all. Been some years since I tried 4, but when it launched I remember going back to 3 almost immediately after a couple weeks.
All I want is someone to make an open world Sims 3 like game with 64-bit support and better multicore support. Can’t wait to see if Paralives and Life by You will deliver
A bit too late honestly…
