The Sims 5 Will Seemingly Adopt a Fortnite Monetization Model (www.ign.com)

The candidate will "own pricing of all content in this free-to-enter game, ensuring we have an optimal pricing and content architecture [and] provide guidance to content teams on in-game content needs to meet player demand.

Not much different than Sims 4's abundance of DLCs, then.

I, kinda hate this. Guess I'll stick to 4

Yet another series that I've lost interest in due to shitty monetization...

The only thing I like doing in these games is designing houses, not interested in the whole "Sims" part of it. So it would really suck if all the community made assets are stuck behind a pay wall to the point of not even being able to mod stuff in.
