>Most famous Sims-killer released yesterday>Already forgottenWhat went wrong?
Remember when video games used to be marketed to heterosexual males, even the life sim ones?
It looks gay, even to life sim standards
>>739662654Nice thumbnail, retard.
>EVERY single character has e-girl blush>Grandpa is a thot
>>739662654Early access jank. Will have to see how often the devs push out updates. Steam Workshop integration is cool though.
>sold 250k copies less than 8 hours>providing mod tools to the comminity in launch dayI'm sure they're doing just fine lil bro
>>739662654Is there a way to kill off your characters in hilariously awful ways? The Sims 1 was great in ways you could torment them like building a pool and then taking away the ladder, or removing every toilet in the house, or just letting them use the stove to make a homemade meal and burn to death.That last one was frustrating when you actually wanted them to fend for themselves and get a job but it was an expedited trip to the afterlife if you didn't.
>>739663918No pools yet lol. You can start a fire if you suck at cooking. Pretty sure you can burn to the death.
>>739663845I hope the mod tools is actually worth a fuck compared to the shit the gooks released for Inzoi(still no script editor)https://forum.thebrokenchatbox.com/d/16-naughtyzoi-early-developments-thread-erotic-animation-framework-for-inzoi
>>739664078>No pools yet lolWelcome back Sims 4 1.0.At least Paralives has a better pseudo open world from what little I have seen.
Holy shit it looks so ugly.
>>739662654>7 years of wait for an early access to a game that's just a knock-off of over 10 years old gameGood grief.
People with no taste wanted Sims 3 with Sims 4 visuals.Well, you got it. "open world"(50+ lots available with no loading screens) and fucking ugly sims 4 visuals.
>>739662654>What went wrong?
https://youtu.be/3jB6o38xT1I?si=1vyYJxEOUmljSicpOur guy played it. Near the end of the video."I'd still take Sims 4 over this.""Glad they tried"It is just like Inzoi. It is impossible to beat Sims 2.
>>739665673Seemed more like he thought it was a good base, but needs more development as it is. Different from Inzoi where the most fun he had was hitting people with the buggy ass car and thought the rest of it was shallow.
>>739662654It looks ugly as fuck
This game costs almost as much as InZoi for some reason. Both games are too expensive for what they are.
>>739666000Checked
>>739662654>sims killer>no mods on ATFIt's dead on arrival
>>739666251I thought ATF was closing down?
>>739662654I just wanted the Korean one to have sext mods but looks like it was such colossal shit that it was forgotten entirely
>>739666324Inzoi is fucking dead, not sure what went wrong other than the souless artstyle
>>739666000Plus a 50k a month patreon tip
>>739662654Famous? Inzoi was famous and its early access is way better.
>>739666749It has 1K concurrent players...
>>739664690I'm honestly surprised we even got an early access release. When I first saw the reveal way back (like 6 years ago?), I was almost certain this would be vaporware and fizzle out to nothing.
Guys it's an indie early access that's only been in development for seven years, just buy it and be patient.
>>739666782Because it's early access.
>>739666630>not sure what went wrong other than the souless artstyleIt's a shallow, lackluster and boring game with lackluster modding tools that requires mid tier rig to actually play. Half of the target audience gets filtered on specs alone. Full mod tools could give second life to Inzoi, but for some incomprehensible reason gooks seem incapable to doing that and the curse forge mod interation feels like they did it just to spite everyone who actually cares about mods. At least paradevs released full mod tools day one. Modding this game on EA will be pain in the ass but I as a modder feel much more confident in wasting time on this game than on Inzoi. I was sceptical to Inzoi from the very beginning and as it turns out I was right.
>>739662654> sims clone with more bugs and less variety in items and actionseven fans of these kinds of games would probably only play it for a couple of days before going back to their pirated sims 4 game with 5 million mods in it.
>>739666282nah that was obviously a ploy to squeeze out donations or some shit
Can anyone tell me why these "sims killers" get jerked off pre-release but then don't even fucking try to be a good sims alternative and instead drop as barebones Early Access turds inferior to the old games? No, I'm not buying any "saar in 3 years surely it will be close to Sims 2 saar" bullshit.
>>739662913no, since the sims has been marketed with its gay stuff since literally the very beginning.
>>739664190Yeah it does, looks like fun otherwiseIm hoping their are some mods that change the tumblr artstyle
>>739667193No, not really. Official Sims marketing material and households are all heterosexual. Sims took baby steps with faggotry and kept it subtle in game, you had to actually be a fag in game to see it.
>>739667349yes really.>subtleoh you're the stupid faggot who tried this thread yesterday and got annihilated by 50 peopleembarrassing
>>739662913But Sims2 never had threesomes...
>>739667501I don't care about your discord raiding. Yes, the promotional material for sims 1 and 2 along with official households are all heterosexual. You have to actually attempt being gay to see it and even then there's no gay marriage. Sims 3 added gay marriage but I never saw any homo households in the game. Meanwhile Paralives has old gay carpet munchers as an official household lamao.
>tfw your "sims killer" formula never caught onI guess people prefer playing a literal dollhouse
>>739666849>only been in development for seven yearsthis is what got me the most. I mean, it's kinda okay if it's just been around for several months, with the possibility of getting much better over the years. but it's already seven fucking years holy shit.
>>739662913No. The Sims was always a virtual dollhouse for women and homos.
>>739667913The sims games were fun for people of all ages and genders. The life sim aspect was always genuinely cool and nobody managed to really do it like sims. Be it building your dream house, living out the fantasy of being a rich chad/married man with a big family, screwing around and causing drama or seeing all the weird things that could happen there was a lot you could do with Sims.
The criticism of "nothing to do" never made sense whether it is Inzoi, Paralives, or even launch period Sims 4.You're a fucking idiot if you think a new base that just released will have more than what had 5(sims2, 3), fucking 12+(sims4) years worth of DLC. The only exception I could think of is Sims 2 at launch but that's just because of how simple Sims 1 is even with every dlc.If what you people meant by "nothing to do" was "nothing interesting but to click on avatars and live out mundanity", congrats you absolute woman, welcome to the sims. You may as well complain that 4X is nothing but waiting for your turn.>shillOnly life sim games I shill and encourage to pirate is Sims 3 and 2. In fact, I encourage everybody to do that right now and try them out without DLC first to gain some fucking perspective. I am sick of seeing these absolute cretins complaining that new thing does not fit their incomprehensibly incorrect idea of what this genre is because they are better off playing fucking second life or equivalent mmos than the sims.
>>739668596Fuck off nigger. The bare minimum I expect is to have the soul and fun of Sims 2. Meanwhile these clueless niggers just jerk themselves off then shit out barebones EA turds that maaaaaaybe will become good in 5 years. Lol.Even vanilla Sims 1 was tons of fun. These turds are lame and gay.
Why do games take so fucking long to make now. I kinda get it for AAA, you have insanely bloated teams, 50 managers per developer, clueless upper management, lack of direction, but this game is indie, it's like 12 dudes, what gives? It's not even as feature rich as the older Sims, save for the character editor
>>739662654>already forgotten >entire YouTube feed is only paralives content>tons of very positive reviews>first mod was a dildo set
>>739668106You're a homosexual, anon. Embrace it.
>>739668998>like 12 dudesthere is your answer.It took Hello Games starting from about 12 devs 3 years to release the banal alpha form of No Man's Sky and 13 years and expanding the company to about 50 people to reach where it is now.So see you in 2040. Maybe Paralives will be worth getting by then.
>>739668106These all seem to be things that drive watching reality TV shows/networks and the online content that are their successors.Point stands.
>2026>I am forgotten
>>739671097https://store.steampowered.com/news/app/2456740/view/702143076369433123?l=englishThey are adding schools.Just one gun mod needed.
>>739669026FOID ALERT
>>739662654Just like all sims-like games that have released thus far, there is literally nothing to do, so far paralives gameplay wise has what? Some collecting stuff, and a community centre like StardewValley, but the actual simulation aspect of the game, the whole life-sim thing just isn't there. And it baffles me that these indie studios continue to just go lmao on making the gameplay fun first, before going insane on the Building aspect of the game and Character Creation, because Paralives is in the same position the Sims 4 was at launch, good Character creator, Improved and better build mode, but fuck all to do, except this time it gets a pass, and slap on the butt, when this game has been in development for 10+ years, and you'd should be able to expect more out of it. They wanted to release this game last December, I can't imagine what the state of it was back then, sure creating a life sim is complex and difficult, but there could have been more to the life-sim had they not focused all those years on the creating a character aspect and the build mode, that shit doesn't keep you long term invested. The whole reason why Sims 4 players jumped and latched onto Paralives is because they wanted something else besides just a Character Creator and Buildmode, yet here we are, another life sim that is just Character Creator and Buildmode, it's just sims 4, once again, but now indie, with the promise of it one day being something more"TM. Instead of it being a good simulation game first, and then a good Character Creator and Buildmode game.
>>739662913This has the same vibe as those mobile game ads for cheating games made for women
>updates during early access are free!Is that supposed to be a major selling point? That's literally what's expected of early access games, you know, since they're not even fucking done. If someone tried to charge for updates to an early access game they'd probably have to cancel the game, shutter their studio, start a new one with no ties to their previous studio, and have to use fake names for the credits purely due to the sheer amount of backlash they'd receive.
>>739673163Does this imply theyre going to fucking charge for updates after release?
>>739673249The inzois at gooks implied that they will charge money for present and future free dlcs when they exit early access
>>739673391>inzois at gooks impliedImagine being dyslectic.
>>739673391Inzoi is trash but they literally also said all updates are free and they are only doing paid content when the game exists earlyaccess, which is kinda onpoint given their first like tropical bullshit whatever expansion was indeed free.
>>739666282>I thought ATF was closing down?Nah, the owner changed his mind. Something about a bunch of other sites shutting down so now he feels obligated to carry the torch or some shit (which is obviously a load of bullshit but who cares, it's still up)Pretty sure the reasons he said he was initially planning on shutting it down though, mainly the issue of server costs is legit though. Really it's a simple fix though, just ban and delete AI generated shit. Shit's probably a massive source of bloat. Just look at the ATF booru. There's well over 200k AI-generated images, most of which are just slight variants of other AI-generated images or even just the same fucking images.
>>739673484>ExistsExitsHoly fuck kill me.
>>739673508>honeypot site not shutting downwell yeah duh.
>>739666324>InzoiSpirit Shard is working on a sex mod for inzoi actually.
>>739673437what's wrong my /v/ from brother
>>739669035The only thing I ever did in sims was fuck hot bitches and living our the fantasy of being a married man with a baby fever wife popping out like 8 kids.
>>739668106Anon, it's a literal dollhouse game. Will Wright originally named it Dollhouse. Females have always been the overwhelming majority of the fanbase.
>>739662654I wish there was a Sims successor that didn't trying to be some gay and mundane real life life sim and instead went all in on the fantastical and whimsical elements that made Sims fun.
>>739666926>Half of the target audience gets filtered on specs aloneLikely more than half. The target audience is roasties who game on non-gaming laptops.
Call me when I can make a teen whore fuck old men for drugs in this game.
>>739673957An explicit adult rated life sim game with uncensored coomer shit and adult concepts like murder and war would certainly be interesting.
>>739662654Meh, I ain't buying that shit until it's a full relase and on sale, and only if they add some serious ways to influence the other characters lives/relationships. All my Sims playthroughs always devolve into me being an immortal mad scientist who does fucked up experiments on the locals with science, magic, or whatever. If I can't do that, there's really no point. Rimworld and Sims w/ mods will still remain the superior simulators.
>>739674253Any game that explicitly includes those elements won't sell well, even with the audience that wants it. It has to have an innocent coat of paint like the sims and this game. The corruption is the real appeal. Yes I'm a game design genius.
>>739662913>punch>divorceI don't remember having those options
>>739662913Fpbp. All the trannies trying to do their revisionist shit can fuck off
>>739662654>Start the game.>Non binary option in character creation.>Mixed copules.>LGBTI flag.>Retarded graphics.>Lag like shit when run from place to place.>B-b-but anon you can't turn this off>Nobody gives a shit.I gee another game killed by LGBTI shit.
Why are westerners so fucking incompetent at hiring good artists to make attractive characters? You have the whole internet at your fingertips to find a really talented artist who makes beautiful stuff and THIS is what you choose? Why are they like this? Like pic rel took me 3 minutes to find. Surely they can do better?
>>739674920They can make good looking characters but they won't all they care about is muh leftist propaganda and how many genders you can put into game.
>>739667142It's like cozy farm sims. They all are inspired by Rune Factory and Harvest Moon, but it's made usually by a bunch of pussys and queers who hate any sort of conflict and work so they focus purely on the creative side rather than the gameplay part, so everyone gets bored and goes back to The Sims.
>>739675075I'll just stick to my Japanese/chinese/Korean games then. The rot is starting to reach there too but it's not nearly as bad as the west.
>>739675167Good. Don't play western shit because western game devs are mostly homosexuals or rabbi enjoyers.
>>739662654gay tranny game
>>739673163>>739673249per the steam page:>Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?>“The game will be sold at a discount throughout Early Access, with the price increasing gradually as we add more content until full release. However, we have pledged to never release paid DLCs: there will only ever be free updates!”seems like tha plan is no mans sky it and do free updates although who knows how long they'll be able to keep that up.
>>739674920>>739675075They intentionally make ugly characters because feminists infiltrated the industry after gamergate gave them a platform. Notice that it's only ever conventionally attractive female characters that get shit on, never conventionally attractive males. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Male_gaze
>>739672395No porn mods will end up killing this game, seems like every Sims creator uses WW.
>>739672826The build mode is pretty gud though
