It sounds like they've got a pretty small dev team, so I'm sure it's going to take a while. Hopefully the wait will be worth it!
I'm somewhat torn on what I would prefer these games to do. On one hand I would like it to be like the Sims, but better. On the other I would like them to carve out their own niche and go from there. Either way they go there will be people that are disappointed. I'm personally not a huge fan of the artstyle of Paralives, but good gameplay is almost always the deciding factor for me. I'm certainly willing to give it a try, if for no other reason than supporting alternatives.
