I read very little about families and since its a simulator will it also focus around that or is it more you pick a job and you just start getting active? There is no active NPC and everything is done by players so i don't think its possible to have a family in the game. So it is hard to play the game when all you see is adults running around?
I would love to see that there are smart NPC being family members so the city comes alive! Do you know there are lots of fans who are dying to see this from the sims series? So if no smart NPC then its a big lost because this game is rare simulator!
And also i don't see alot of ideas being talk about how families can be run and what they do? Will they be schools to go too for instant?
All the search i have done shows that families are more about gangs and crime. So if no emphasis is brought to make families like in real life then it would only be like game such as GTV 5 so the game will be all about fighting and bringing in the criminals.
I like to also add that there is Chronicles of elyria and they have built into their game families but its more low fantasy. So why should they be getting all the fans who love to play as families? Identity should also be about families too and making it so it just as important as crime.
Very worried that this game will become just a job simulator with hardly any believable virtual world, just a playground of crime. So please tell me this is not going to happen! Because there do not seem to be any interest in the community about wanting this? So what is the point to have a home? Customize character if it is all going to be alone? You can have players but its better with NPC because they will stay in role play and they can always be there when you want them to and follow orders and even sometimes disobey because of personality.
