Looks like the next Sims game will be a medieval kingdom simulator:
The Sims Medieval
This might be the first Sims game that catches my interest. A medieval setting could offer lots of interesting gameplay.
Is this going to increase or decrease female interest in the title?
Like you say, straigh away it actualy sounds - if they do it right - like I might be interested. Maybe.
Aslong as I can cross out the "The Sims" title and write "Im gonna go" and then underneath the title write "on your ass!".
Well, it's a step in the right direction for sure. Now if they include a good editor and such, this could really take off.
The normal Sims I played once in the first version for a few evenings. I borrowed it while a friend was away. Mostly I really didn't get it. I tried my best to make George happy. He hit on every woman he met. All hated him. George got more and more depressed. I decided I was not good at this sort of game. Then too, the weapons sucked. All I could find was some kind of bug spray.
Worth keeping an eye on.

Same here. I never understood that craze with that game. Then again, I never understood the Starcraft craze either.
Can't speak for other females, but I enjoy the Sims series in general, and this idea is rich in detail and options, sounds great to me.
They could make a vampire porn sim and I still wouldnt buy. Make a real game instead
That's the kind of Sims I was hoping for. Well, the style at least. Implementation would determine how "cool" it actually is.
And for the "wisemen", any game you don't like is a waste of time and the ones you like are "da best".
Now I'm waiting for the "EA is the devil blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah blah" people.
Wow heh! Sims Medieval....sounds weird & interesting as well!
I thought this was a post about a mod for Elemental.
Moving on.
Retro-futuristic sims, now that I would buy.
My wife already wants it...so, I'll be picking it up either way. If it's any good maybe I'll play it too, still too early to tell at this point.
your wife is a gamer? ...turning green with envy now
I will only endorse this game if it is historically accurate.
I demand witch burnings and rape.
If it has Sim Catholicism you'll be guaranteed both!!! LoL
Ahh, yeap. She's a gamer. She plays the Sims and Dragon Age and she likes Borderlands and a couple of other games. She likes console games too. The nicest part is having a wife that understands my need to game. Just don't ever let gaming come in between quality time.
Sims 3 has an interesting neighborhood (PC and NPC) progression system that I'd love to see in other types of games. I'll be there if it's what I'm expecting it to be.
Hehe, that's good stuff. I never met with a girl, who liked computer games.
Closest thing I've heard to a Sims game being of interest to me, but I'd still have to give it a good test drive before any cash goes out. Even though the games theme might be better, EA's give you a few things with the game and sell you everything that should of come with it policy will still tarnish the experience.
Really? You need more friends.
I joined a local board gamer group a while back, don't care about board games that much but I enjoy the company.
Sheesh, doesnt she get it, games ARE quality time. Duh.
My sister and her boyfriend (long-term bf) play games all the time, and with me even, but that is not all they do. It sure helps that they both love it though.
I demand that this game have scantily clad wenches.
Yeah, this will be a really good "miserable life simulator".
Females will be treated like comoditys. 'Peseant' wont just be an insult to the working class anymore. Lords will have gout, poor them.
Sheep will be the primary entertaiment for the welsh (no wait, thats still true). Boys will be trained in the art of war (hitting things with sticks) from birth.
Girls will be lamented because they arn't useful tools like boys.
Half the 'sims' will die from the plague, the other half will have various illnesses, mostly sexualy transmited ones, and between people dieing of 'bad blood' (siph) or old age (25ish) the game HAS to be about a kindgom or it would be very short.
Not to mention the fact Ill just want to invade france all the time but the game wont let me... agh.
OH WHAT GLORIOUS FUN IT WILL BE!
You forgot that most the children won't make it past the first few years of life if that. Oh and most the mothers won't survive childbirth. Sign me up for this depressing game! heh
Seriously though I am all for some realism, but I still insist on fun in my games.
Sometimes I think talking on forums qualifies under that.
Oh well, I do it anyway.
