This looks like a really shiny successor to sims 3, specifically. I hope its both good and does well.

Seems like they're missing the absolutely very important point that the target audience for The Sims doesn't have NASA quantum computers to play their games. Sure it looks beautiful, but 99% of your audience won't be able to play it unless you have Carmack himself doing arcane computer wizardry to make it run on a toaster.

Looks cool! I'd play

Looks promising, but if it's going to have any hope of unseating The Sims, it's going to need strong modding support.

One thing I always liked about The Sims was it being a satire on life. Especially the first one. I don't think this game is interested in going that direction... Everything is very Korean. Spotless and clean and sterile.

The design is very human
