What I noticed.... - serp3821 - 27-03-2009 12:17 AM

In TheSims2, EA only focused on creating families; like genes, and traits.
Also in the age groups.
They barely focused on architecture, personality, and creativeness.
Yes, I noticed that...

But in TheSims3, they are focusing on everything and making the game look awesome.
I totally agree in EA taking more time,  well actually they finished, in polishing the game, fixing errors
and putting the best things.

Shouldn't his go in the delay topic since you are discussing the delay?

Yeah they don't focus on those things as much as they do with other things.

I'm still not a 100% sure I believe them when they say they are 'polishing the game' because that could easily just be something they're saying after the uproar it caused the community about them delaying it to the Summer to obtain more money. I still think that's the main reason, but of course the polishing is good and I'm glad it's being tweaked to 'perfection' or as close as it can get, anyway.

Anyhoo, they focused more so on genes in TS2 because really, that was the games most explosive feature that the game was about. It was about having the ability to create generations and share genes and to age. It was very family focused.
Now while The Sims 3 is also family focused and contains all those features, it also contains the seamless neighbourhood and the traits, which I think TS3 is more about, and those are the biggest new features brought to us in this game.

And if there's a TS4, it'll being something even bigger to the game, so we're always getting more stuff to focus on and it's only getting better. =]

Like gradual aging, hair growth, heights, body conformation, lifepaths, etc?

I'm still happy with TS3 as is for now.
