More hyped for Paralives to be honest, but glad there are two in the making.

fishonredchair,

I saw Paralives some time ago and put it on my wishlist. But there are no updates on when it will launch (ready or early access)?

Ready when its ready sort of thing. Right now it looks like everything build, buy, and character design related are mostly finished.

So now they are working on gameplay and simulation which wont be easy for an indie team considering how much developing power it always took to develop the sims. As it stands there are basic things like sitting and hugging but with clipping and weird animation glitches. Not to mention they promised an open world yet to be seen in a functional state besides lots.

I wouldnt expect Paralives to be ready until mid 2024 at the earliest. Join their discord cause they post monthly updates on what they are developing with gifs and screenshots.

Paralives looks more polished but competition is always a good thing. maybe one day one of these games will replace my sims 2 addiction lol

Good. I wish more games went back into the oven for more time instead of being forced out.

HeyLow,

That’s alright it’s an epic exclusive, they can have it while it’s shit lmao

Yes. We’ve had so many examples of rushed games with great potential that never hit it. It’s actually refreshing to see a delay. It suggests that the dev team is still getting a say and that the game itself and its quality are still primary concerns.

Hathaway,

While I agree, most games are delayed and still garbage, buggy messes. Looking at you cyberpunk, halo, etc.

I just hate the current state of the industry as a whole.
