Depending on how you feel about sailing, there's some decent "third party acquisition options" for the sims 4 that work with the official stores. I have the complete collection on steam, didn't pay a dime.
How do you mean? I know it's pretty standard to pirate the Sims games because of their dlc costs, but I don't know any way to get it legally and on steam.
It looks very promising for sure. I'm more excited for Paralives personally, but either way I'm glad to finally see some actual competition for The Sims.
Sadly, I don't see InZoi being a competitor for Sims for as long as the hardware requirements are so high. I'm still holding out hope that Paralives will be the saviour we need.
