The next Sims game currently goes under the name Project Rene rather than The Sims 5, but that aside, we know a growing amount about EA Maxis’ next social simulation.

    Free To Play means gameplay value has been deliberately sabotaged to create paywalls.

    Instead of paying once and enjoying, you get nickled and dimed which sucks all the joy out of a game.

      Nah, Sims just makes 90% of it’s money off the DLC. Making the base game free means nothing for their earnings and they know it.
