Have been watching a lot of videos and reading some articles for the next installment. It looks incredible but them leaving out toddlers and pools in the base game is the main gripe. All of the create a sim stuff I have seen looks great but I wish they would release a gameplay video.

Release date is September 4th for PC only. I've been needing a new computer for a little over 6 months now and this game will probably be the thing that pushes me to buy one.

Really? This is the game that motivates you to get a new computer?

This, Steam and a lot of other games. This was the straw that broke the camels back I guess you could say. I have a few laptops in mind but I think I would rather have a desktop. Haven't had one since I was a 13

I'm not so much as mad that pools and the toddler cycle will be left out as much as I am at the way they feel they'll make it up to us

While we recognize that some of you will be disappointed that pools and toddlers won't be available when The Sims 4 Base Game launches in September, you should know that we're building an incredibly strong foundation that is capable of fulfilling every one of your desires in the years to come.


So thanks for the 20+ packs of expansions that I'll have to buy. I'm looking forward to The Sims 4: Water Sports and The Sims 4: KIDZ!

How are pools not available? That makes zero sense.

And you are right, it's just so they can charge you more later on.

The graphics don't look any better than 3.

They're not supposed to. They made it more cartoonish in order for it to be able to run on lower end PCs. I think the new look looks great but I can see why some don't like it.
