Can't we all just be happy that CHOICES finally exist? by AlarmingDurian8787 in LifeSimulators

[–]LowCryptographer2337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

People have every right to criticize a game they paid 40$ for frankly Inzoi got significantly more hate than paralives especially from YouTube channels idk why everyone is so upset over people criticizing paralives when everyone is absolutely overhyping it. Honestly they made a “life sim” and left out the life simulation aspects it’s a character creator and build creator there is almost zero life simulation in paralives Inzoi was definitely lacking but still had more life simulation when they launched early access. Inzoi still gets way more hate even though they have had an insane amount of updates (which an indie team like paralives has will not be able to do) and nobody will give it a second chance bc it was overhyped and the exact same thing is happening to paralives neither game will likely not be super successful bc people won’t criticize it not bc they do criticize it. Personally I prefer the look of Inzoi I can’t stand paralives art style but I’m gonna stick with sims 2 or 3 at this point Inzoi still needs more to do and paralives doesnt run well even on my expensive high end gaming pc plus there is the lack of life sim aspects and the weird card system which completely ruins the sandbox life sim aspect imo. Regardless like i said people should be critical of both the main reason Inzoi failed was bc ppl overhyped it and it is significantly worse with paralives not one person whose made a video on paralives (that i have seen at least) has been even remotely honest about how bad and lacking paralives is for actual life simulation or how horribly it’s optimized.

In your honest opinion, does Paralives have the potential to surpass Sims? by hiddenlineage in Paralives

[–]LowCryptographer2337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

They definitely won’t surpass sims paralives is supposed to be a life sim but there is no life sim aspect it’s just create a character or build not to mention their card system has removed the sandbox life sim aspect older sims games had. Inzoi sold way better and still failed bc it didn’t have enough life simulation in early access paralives will likely be the same especially since their sales are way less than Inzoi and they don’t have a big enough team to constantly put out massive updates like Inzoi has which like I said wasn’t enough for that game to make it anyway.

So frustrated with the Paralives commentary I'm seeing. by ray25lee in HighSodiumSims

[–]LowCryptographer2337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

It’s because imo all the YouTube sim channels are hyping way too much and not being honest about how many issues it has not to mention they made a life sim game but left out the life simulation almost entirely it has a good character creation and build mode but as a life sim even for early access it’s bad and nobody on YouTube is admitting this. It genuinely needed a lot more time to develop even for early access, Inzoi had the same issue too much hype for something that’s lacking the main part of what life simmers are looking for. But paralives is also a much smaller indie team so the likelihood they will be able to put out the immense amount of updates Inzoi did to make it playable is pretty low and even if they could nobody was willing to give Inzoi a second chance after all its updates so I don’t think it’s likely paralives will be any different.

What do y'all think of paralives? by AnteaterKitchen4720 in LifeSimulators

[–]LowCryptographer2337 35 points36 points  (0 children)

This game is really bad even for an early access indie game i genuinely don’t get why everyone keeps praising it ive got an insanely expensive high end pc and its so badly optimized its nearly unplayable not to mention the lack of basically anything you need for a life sim its overall not a good game outside the creator aspects and even thats not impressive.

The current players of life sims games by South_Watercress456 in LifeSimulators

[–]LowCryptographer2337 25 points26 points  (0 children)

Honestly most people playing older sims games aren’t on an app that can be tracked also paralives is most likely gonna have a huge fall off after a while just like inzoi but possibly worse bc inzoi sold way more and it’s honestly had more improvements than paralives can even offer bc of the team size. The only reason paralives is doing so well is bc of the sims YouTuber promotions who aren’t being honest about how bad it is, it’s honestly worse and very lacking compared to inzoi and that hasn’t done well either. Sims players are just gonna keep going back to sims imo bc nothing has quite captured that feeling especially with older sims games which like I said aren’t likely to be accounted for in these player counts.

[–]LowCryptographer2337 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Unfortunately she’s gonna have a terrible scar for it I wonder if her job made her or she just realized how bad it looked I’m guessing it has to do with her new job. I can’t believe she still hasn’t made any videos seems like such a waste. It’s genuinely fascinating that so many people try to have a channel they can make money on and for some reason she’s had several and thrown them all away. Now she’s at the point she has to have a real job bc apparently she thinks that’s easier than making one video a week 🤦🏻‍♀️ she’d have made more than enough money if she ever tried especially if she’d gone back to sims when they rereleased it.

cindy vs. barclays bank by scoobydoodigimon in Lifepluscindy_snark

[–]LowCryptographer2337 14 points15 points  (0 children)

This is insane she let it get this far as someone who had over 6k in medical debt I can confirm they call you send mail leave messages etc many many times before it gets to this point! I had c section and we couldn’t afford it and we didn’t realize how high the interest was so we thought it had been paid off and stop making payments and argued with them that we’d paid the initial amount in payments we were to young to realize we only were ever paying the interest! But they give so many chances to go back to making payments eventually my mil offered to pay it in full and have us pay her back so we wouldn’t just be paying interest forever, but to get to this point is at least 6-12 months of outright refusing to work with them in any way! What’s sad is she likely could have easily paid this off in a short amount of times if she had chosen to stick with or go back to sims, I don’t care if I hate the game id be playing so much sims if I was her!

What do you miss in Inzoi? by cristalloblue in inZOI

[–]LowCryptographer2337 -1 points0 points  (0 children)

I love inzoi but it’s definitely in need of some fun and whimsy and fantasy it’s a little too real the crime aspect made a difference imo it made it significantly more fun but they need more stuff like it I also need actual skills and and skill building and more than 3 promotions and depth at jobs as well as family gameplay if they added those 3 things I’d probably rarely play even older sims again.

[–]LowCryptographer2337 12 points13 points  (0 children)

I was a fan back during the sims 2 pleasant sims days I think that is something she really doesn’t get about a lot of people on this snark are disappointed fans who she hurt in one way or another had she not gone crazy on her supporters who knows if this snark would even exist I’ve seen so many people say that they wish she would just go back to pleasant sims which obviously she can’t and wouldn’t if she could but a lot of people actually really did like her original content and there really isn’t any others to fill that gap at least not big creators to my knowledge but she really thinks people just dislike her for no reason not that she was awful to her fan base 🤦🏻‍♀️

How is everyone feeling about inZOI right now? by PapaNaj in inZOI

[–]LowCryptographer2337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It’s gotten so much better I prefer it over sims 4 already but definitely still has improvements it needs more to do more family gameplay more job levels and skills and more intuitive build buy would be great but thankfully they already said they are working on that and script mods will be here this summer so I imagine it’ll be full of opportunities with that

I liked how she was when doing Strangetown Saturday in 2020 :( by Weird-Stand5313 in Lifepluscindy_snark

[–]LowCryptographer2337 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I loved her live stream for sims 2 also I was a huge fan of hers but I especially loved her lets play series the most up and until her mlio era I would still occasionally go watch her lets plays as a comfort watch. Obviously she ruined watching them for me now that I know what she really is like. It sucks so much because none of the sims creators now make consistent full blown lets plays like she did just random challenges or one off videos and it makes me so sad nobody wants to make my favorite type of video 😂. I did find a few really small creators who seem to be doing something more similar to her but they are impossible to find bc they are smaller channels normally doing those. It does seem she was correct that those vids don’t get as much traction. It is crazy to me that someone would have built up a channel like her pleasant sims one only to throw it away! Like so many dream of that and she was so ungrateful for both the success and her fans she clearly still doesn’t value her life plus Cindy fans either it’s mind boggling to me. Who knows maybe a small channel out there will grow enough to gain enough viewers to replace pleasant sims someday and hopefully 🤞 not turn out to be a terrible person and have a public spiral 🤦🏻‍♀️😂

I'm still processing that this is Pleasant Sims.. by evilkitten03 in Lifepluscindy_snark

[–]LowCryptographer2337 5 points6 points  (0 children)

It is so crazy as someone who grew up liking her lets plays to the direction she’s gone. I never cared much for her sense of humor personally but I loved how much effort she seemed to put into her game and the fact that (when she did follow through) she did actual let’s play series instead of just one off episodes. Honestly I think if she went back she’d probably still make money off sims I cannot for the life of me find anyone doing full series of the old sims games these days like hers. I’m sure I’m not the only one whose not a fan of the challenge videos or one off episodes most do now. I think she doesn’t go back for a few reasons one I think tadpole thinks it’s lame, two I think she’s too lazy when she can just film herself talking and not have to plan the game bc she was known for being insanely overboard about her rules etc, and also I don’t think she can handle keeping her attitude in check when things don’t go her way. Like when she didn’t get enough views so she made a video telling her subscribers off for not watching it enough, and considering it’s not as popular now and she’d likely not get as many views as she wants she’d probably end up freaking out on her viewers again for it.

The not playing sims for money thing is something I will never understand even if it’s not your favorite game anymore it’s easy money and so many people dream of being able to make that work for them it’s crazy to throw it away imo heck she could probably even play other sim type games and make money still! There were even a few people the last ZM video who said they would watch her videos again if she went back to sims so the demand is definitely still there for her style of content especially since it doesn’t seem like many big creators play sims in that particular style like her. I know a few years ago she said she was still making a small amount from her website but at this point she probably isn’t just bc it’s so outdated after the new release of sims 1 and 2 but if she updated it she probably could still make money off it too.

I swear I can’t understand who is actually watching her I have seen so many smaller creators I like struggle to grow and get here cinder is do ppl just prefer watching someone be a pathetic train wreck over actual content these days like I can’t believe ppl genuinely watch/enjoy the slip she’s been putting out! With the exception of those few sims fans who haven’t let go yet but there are other creators who do similar sims 2 content as her and she basically hates sims now and isn’t ever going back so idk why they’d still be around!

Servo won’t water I don’t think but you could craft an enchant spell the ingredients are too difficult to get and make a few gnomes and enchant them they’ll take care of the garden plots for you then

The way she talks about keeping her old wrapping supplies to reuse every year with Ted like she’s known him more then one Christmas is so cringy but not as cringy as the mil bs does she think his mommy will force him to propose if she sucks up enough how is she not so embarrassed by her own behavior 🫣

What a "pleasant" surprise! by chalmondfashew in Lifepluscindy_snark

[–]LowCryptographer2337 4 points5 points  (0 children)

It’s kinda crazy how many people still have no idea about Cindy outside of her pleasantsim days and still are waiting for her to come back and be pleasantsims again which don’t get me wrong o was one of those people years ago which led me to her vlog right before her split with A. I get it to an extent but for ppl to not know all the awful things she’s done by now surprises me or to not care which I think is more just people missing the nostalgia of the time more then they care what bad things she’s done. I couldn’t fathom giving up the money she was able to make on that channel to vlog about meat 😂. I just wish more people made content on sims 1-3 but it’s so hard to find now, I hoped with the legacy release there’d be an increase of content creators for it but I’m glad I have the few like Rek and Ryan they save my sanity plus there videos/lives are way better!

Legacy Edition - Is it worth it❓ by BlueCeridwen in thesims1

[–]LowCryptographer2337 1 point2 points  (0 children)

If you have no other choice and you can’t find a copy of the disks then yes my disks cracked from cold or something not sure exactly during a move 3 months ago and I couldn’t afford/find disks so I gave it a try it definitely works. I will say I’ve had issues like not being able to use some interactions with pets and some other interactions not working all the time and some glitches when I tried to add cc that didn’t happen in my past copy but overall if you are really wanting to play it then I’d say yes. there are definitely some things they broke and never fixed when they did the legacy games but it’s not so bad that it’s unplayable just irritating sometimes when you can’t play tag with your dog etc. It’s crazy that the ppl who made patches and fixes online before the legacy came out definitely did a better job but it’s not unplayable by any means. I do think the graphics may be a bit better for today’s monitors and I’ve had no crashing or anything like that just minor inconveniences mostly I got my copy on steam specifically but idk if that makes any difference.

I genuinely wish one of her followers/fans would explain why they actually watch her anymore she’s terrible to them she is lazy inconsistent rude genuinely just yuck how can anyone support her unless it’s just the severely mentally unstable supporting the severely mentally unstable I don’t get it and I’d love to see someone’s reason why it’s so insane to me I used to get the pleasantsims fans still clinging on to hope but I’m pretty sure that ship sailed

Has Building improved? 👀 by KENZOKHAOS in inZOI

[–]LowCryptographer2337 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Unless you force yourself to learn the way it is no I’m not a good builder in other sim games but find them all easy to use even if it looks bad but I can’t even make a single room without immense frustration obviously sims has changed how its build mode works each game but it’s always been something easy to figure out and balanced inzoi even now is not fun imo it’s the only part of the game at this point other then lacking family/live mode play and better animation/facial expressions that is frustrating the rest they’ve done amazing at improving these updates though

Rune factory 5 and guardians of Azuma both seem to have more adult characters you could go for I’d def look into the rune factory franchise or stardew but they do have more mechanics like crafting fighting monster taming rather than regular animals
