Moreover, the Create-a-Style tool is absent, so players no longer have access to the same depth of customization that made the third game a hit. With that being said, the game still comes out with regular updates or "patches" which can be automatically downloaded. These updates add in cool new features pools and Christmas items were added recently that enhance the gameplay experience.
The Sims 4, like all the games in the life-simulation franchise, is very easy to pick up and play. Therefore, it is a great experience for younger gamers and more casual gamers as well. Basically, The Sims 4 is a point-and-click experience. It is an extremely engaging one, though. Now that an emotions system has been implemented, the Sims are more lively and responsive than ever before.
The Sims are now able to multitask, and cause and effect relationships are stronger than they were in previous games. Because the game seeks to mimic real life, players will unavoidably come in contact with themes such as death, the supernatural, love affairs, child birth, and so on. Parents should not be worried, as the content remains light-hearted and has a comical feel to it. The graphics in the game are also more cartoony this time around, appealing to the younger ones.
The female clothing options are surprisingly racier in this game, and there is an option to enhance breast and buttocks size using the new grab and pull feature.
It came as quite a shock to me to see that there are several more "Romantic" interactions in this game, including a wider variety of kissing styles and suggestive interactions. It might come as a relief to some knowing that the hot tub has been removed in the game, but it will likely be included in a future expansion pack. However, woohoo sexual intercourse is still present. In the end, it is up to the player to decide what activities they want their Sim characters to partake in.
The game intentionally does not take itself very seriously; it is a wacky experience where players can take control of life in hundreds of ways. If you believe that your younger teenager is mature enough to handle the game, then it shouldn't be a problem.
Players will have a good time keeping their Sim families happy and healthy. If you already own The Sims 3, it is not worth investing in The Sims 4. Otherwise, it can make for a solid purchase. Just be aware of the fact that you are required to sign up for Origin and download the client in order to play the game. Also, there are many in-game prompts asking you to share your creations online with the rest of the world via The Sims 4's "Gallery.
Helped me decide 1. Read my mind. Adult Written by angellikes July 12, One of the most popular games in the early 's; gameplay has changed. Sims4 is a great game, I have been playing this game since I was Although they took away the cars where you can go everywhere, the game is still quite good. However, I have viewed most reviews of this game and they keeping mentioning the sex in the game Aka WooHoo Listen, to anyone who is looking at this review, the sex is not really a problem in the game.
It's just them moving around in the covers, I've seen under them, they're actually just laying down and the moving are the effects. Plus, there is a option IN the game to turn off also pregnancy. I don't get why the WooHoo is such a nuisance to the game.
Otherwise than the sex, there is only something in the game to enhance your gameplay; the 25 or 26 packs for Sims4 I currently have Get Famous and Seasons which why I mentioned the consumerism in the game.
Who the hell would buy all those packs for the game? Anyway, from the bad stuff on the game, Sims4 is a great educational game for the coming to adult people of how to use your money ex, have 48 hours to pay they're bills or else they're lights will be shut down, getting money from a job to use it on other stuff Also responsibilities, such as Pregnancy for a sim there is a option to turn it off like I said above After trying for baby also known as WooHoo your sim will use the toilet to see if they're pregnant.
It depends, sometimes it will fail unless you have the trait Fertile, where you can find in the Rewards store and sometimes it will be successful.
There is also real life themes, such as 2nd trimester and that other crap, but then if you don't feed the baby after it's born, it will get taken away It happened to my sister once by forgetting to feed HER baby.
They also added something to the game; emotions. Mentioning about deaths in the game, there is 11 different types of default deaths more deaths may come soon such as drowning or being electrocuted. As to close this review, Sims4 is recommended for the preteens.

Adult Written by KarenS89 April 15, Wonderful My kids have loved playing this game!
My youngest is 9 and has been playing since she was 8 and my oldest is 13 and has been playing since he was I was very hesitant to let him play at first but I check it out and it is completely appropriate.
My only concern was that when I clicked on the bed, I saw that they can have sex so I was about to go crazy. It is a good game for learning how to spend your money.
Water and electricity is turned off one by one. Another thing that is great about the game is you can play practice at thing and get really good. For example, if you cook in the game often, your character gets really good at cooking and you can make more and more. You can make as many friends as you like. It is a great way to make better choices in life.
