Sad state of affairs when a game takes the biggest innovation from its predecessor (TS3′s CASt), and throws it out the effing window in TS4. Not even the patterns, just the ability to freely change the daggone COLORS, and not having to be stuck relying on EA’s fugly, inconsistent presets. But already it’s done the one biggest thing TS4 has NEVER done, and what EA alleges is IMPOSSIBLE to do with their busted engine: include in-game customization via a COLOR WHEEL.
Yeah, okay, Maggie’s graphics are flat, and the animations are kinda jittery. So just imagine what she’ll look like in another year, with even more feedback, funding, resources & development. Huge milestone in seeing how far Paralives & its Parafolk have come in LESS THAN A YEAR of development. But for those of us who were expecting nothing insane, Maggie’s reveal was a So expectations for Maggie’s reveal were effing low from jumpstreet. Patreons and donators started pouring in, because everything else Alex was creating – by himself, mind you – was effing spectacular. It got to the point that he had to find someone to redo the models for him. We knew from the very beginning that Alex Masse was having a hard time making the Parafolk – his first Facebook sneak peak of ParaFolk & ParaPets back in August 2019 was cringe AF:
Someone in the Youtube comments had even pointed out that lighting/shadows don’t look the same on Maggie as they do on her surroundings she looks far flatter in comparison. This is a fair criticism, and the one I’m seeing the most often from people. Until you show something worthy of the name rival to The Sims series, we’ll stick to Sims 3 - because buying new for the sake of buying new when you know deep down it is inferior is bloody stupid - especially at a time when times are hard and money is tight. If you can’t even manage Parafolk with graphics crisper than a vicar’s laundry, are we supposed to trust you with the rest of it? Either up your game and come back, or don’t waste your time and the gaming world’s. Read our lips, we are not paying up for a Glitterturd with sprinkles and sauce. So nope, sorry, this looks like another load of Tablet/PhoneSmarterThanOwner fodder spouting much the same ‘tactile’ bullshit Nardone did to cover up the Glitterturd’s fatal flaws way back in 2014 before launch. Or those whose interests are more easily met … It may impress those Dumblrs whose in-game pictures look like their computers run on f**king Skittles but we want more than swapping Sims 4 ’s bland Pastalism for every colour of the Acid Rainbow. Well, sorry to be the killjoys yet again, but this ain’t it - something that looks even more cartoon-like than the Glitterturd. Hey kids, please chip in to help us produce a slightly sharper looking version of Sims Freeplay!Īnd once again, everyone’s falling for it, because they want it to be better, they want EA to get a bloody nose. Honestly, just when the Simgurus were on their knees with the perfect storm of the Eco-Glitterturd fiasco, and what do the Paralives proposers do?
