Life sim games in 2024 have come a long way since The Sims defined the dollhouse simulation game. They often have farming crops, building houses, decorating homes, and sometimes even survival elements as you control your characters and help them flourish in life. The Sims 4 is reaching its 10th anniversary in 2024 and that might herald the arrival of The Sims 5, but we can only guess the date and what new features a new Sims game would bring.

My Time at Sandrock has taken over all my gaming time recently. The setting is slightly unusual and charming which sets it apart from most farming sims, there's focus on more than farming (or rather eveb getting to farming takes work), there's an amazing amount of story content loooooong down the line and I just like the place and characters. Definitely my comfy game of the year.

I bought I am Future and I’ve already nearly completed what’s available as I’ve been addicted to it. I’m looking forward to what they’ll do as it hints to being rather expansive and having other survivors to meet. I loved Portia and still haven’t been able to complete it, but I love the look of Sandrock. I’ve held off getting it but I might get it as an Xmas treat for myself. Not sure but I think Everholm has a demo on Steam, so I might be giving that a try. I also tried the demo of Havendock and enjoyed it even though it was gindy and seems to need some balancing.

I flicked through the time stamps. Thanks for those. With these games I like to know if they’re single player or not. But that requires watching more of each section. With these really helpful compilations I like to flick through what may interest me. And some I may have seen already. Not great for your viewing statistics maybe, but great for me. Rather than marking every game as multiplayer or not, would it be possible to add (SP or Singleplayer) at the start next to the game name? I mainly play these games with friends and knowing if it’s SP means I can ‘write it off’

Here's the thing about most of these 'Sims killers' - they're all realistic simulation games that while interesting, they are missing some of the charm the sims franchise has. That's fine if you're a simmer who's disappointed with the lack of realistic gameplay as you can now finally jump ship, but the reason I myself & friends of mine like the sims (and are a bit sad about 4 for) are the random sillyness that can & will happen. We love the occults, the slight dribblings of fantasy and non realisium in the game. We play it yo escape, not to replicate our lives. In one way 4 is the way it is because of players who demand more & more realistic gameplay when that stuff is actually VERY BORING to play. So when they've jumped ship hopefully we get some of the old classic wacky & fun stuff back into the main sims games again. I don't mind some realistic gameplay, but not when it is at the expense of actual fun which has unfortunately happened to the sims 4, the community has nurtured it and has had the series in a stranglehold since sims 3 (which hilariously isn't hated anymore but was vomplaned about as much when it was the current game pretty much telling anyone watching that the community is never happy and overall sucks.😅) Also they aren't calling it sims 5! Also they said they're keeping 4 alive along side it so it will be interesting to see how they go having both running side by side.

I just wish The Sims 4 had something for if you wanted to have a rap career. Just not something stereotypical (money, women, etc.). The music stuff is geared more towards genre specific stuff. Like the main music career is more of a classical music thing. (Idk why they won't bring back the rockstar stuff. That was fun). Then the singer skill is more focused on stuff you would only do if you were singing as a hobby, but not really trying to make a career and the limitations on it make it not worth making it your main source of income.

I'd love the occults to have full potentate back and special NPCs too. Werewolves was decent (they're my faves) but i feel we need to fix spell casters, aliens, plant sims & mermaids really REALLY badly. In 3 they fixed vampires (they were in two expansions!) So they can certainly fix the occults in 4 if those of us who are left really want them And please give me zombies back.

There's just a lot of risk using AI right now, especially because laws are only just being formed. The US is implementing AI laws, the EU are legislating, and unions are getting AI limitations in their agreements.

@@GamerZakh Hey Zakh, hope you don't think that was directed at you. It was more a gripe about the industry and genre. For the longest time I have been searching for a sim-based game that is balanced more on the premise of requiring optimal strategy to get the most out of it. At the moment these games don't put any pressure at all on the players ability to govern or manage sims and properties with any degree of finesse which feels very unrewarding to me. I like games like sims 3 and This war of Mine, but they are completely devoid of any meaningful learning curves. Essentially you prosper no matter what your approach is. I kind of understand how that might be inclusive and accommodating for the average player, but there are really no exceptions to that rule. Even combat orientated sim games are incredibly vapid with braindead AI and superficial difficulty/adversity. I'm just looking for something of substance in the genre- A game that demands effort and incentivizes optimal gameplay strategies, where the rewards are proportionate to what you put into it. I understand my chances of seeing something like that are pretty slim being that I seem to have a rather unpopular opinion regarding what qualifies as a fulfilling experience. Just venting I guess. Appreciate your videos man. Very articulate and poetic commentary.

LIFESIM with STATIC npcs... are you laughing or mocking? I really hope that this is a local misunderstanding, and not a global trend.

Sims is not a game anymore. It`s just a tool for mode makers and architectural studies.

holy heck, stardew valley should sue farlands, what a rip off of the game, even the same sprites!

Is it the same sprites? If it's not actually stolen, you can't sue. And it's better to let games copy each other as long as it's not copyright infringement. Some game publishers have copyrighted styles or gameplay mechanics, and it only stifles the industry.

@@GamerZakh Yes, for example big gaming companies getting away with copyrighting the 'idea" of push and pull character creation, so that nobody else can develop any type of push 'n pull directly on a character creator. I wonder if a small developer could have gotten away with copyrighting something so ridiculously generic. Wallets and ears in the right places never hurts, does it? Next someone will copyright the fill-the-bar concept...

@@fransmith3255 Yeah, famous example is the 'Nemesis system' in Shadow of War. They successfully copyrighted that and now no other game can have a 'Nemesis system', meaning only 2 games in all of existence have that system and we're not gonna see it again until the copyright expires.
