I'm pretty hyped for some of the spiritual successors, like the one PDX is working on and Paralives. Hard to get excited about anything EA makes nowadays though

The Paradox one looks garbage though, and given their history with DLC I don't have much hope for it. Paralives looks interesting but the development is glacial to the point where by the time it's out I'll be in a retirement home if not seven feet under.

On the other hand, I also have no hope Sims 5 won't be insanely predatory and anti-consumer. Sigh.

It's a shame cities skylines 2 doesn't run on many PCs, or even that the first one became so DLC heavy because watching SimCity implode under EA's bullshit just for an amazing successor to take to the field was amazing.

I'm very excited for the successor to the Sims but I've been waiting for it a scarily long time without any major promising news.
