These requirements were normal in…2006? How about making something not identical to Sims 3 that was graphically really unimpressive even then. Yes 12 year-old girls may not have GTX 770’s or care about any changes but still.
Its marketed for GIRLS only. No sane adult would play these trash games. Very simple: EA is out to corrupt again, giving girls unrealistic ideas and so on.
isn’t Johanna a girl’s name ? 😀
At least in Finland it clearly is
Johanna is a feminine name, a variant form of Joanna that originated in Latin in the Middle Ages, including an -h- by analogy with the Latin masculine name Johannes. The original Greek form I?anna lacks a medial /h/ because in Greek /h/ could only occur initially. The meaning of Johanna is “God is gracious”.
that was nice and complete.
exactly, I hate when people/media try to turn the blame away from parenting. Like at least see what your damn kid is watching jesus.
Of course in real life. Dont see how male adults would like to mess around with toddlers in a game.
Lets not be fooled here: These “The Sims” games are made for GIRLS ONLY. EA have no mercy they even target young girls to live “perfect Hollywood lives”. A big clue is that perhaps TODDLERS are DLC whoring. This fu cking company EA, just blow it up.
Sims 4 System requirements: Do not purchase.
Same can be said for you. Fcuking staggering sh!tp!le of an idiot, go back to your peasant laptop or PS360.
Lol make me, bitch. If you manage to crawl out of your mama’s basement, that is. If not, try changing your name to FuckedBYCoolingGibbon.
still supporting windows XP and directx 9 their just milking this series to death, graphics arnt all that impressive im dissappointed i’ll keep playing sims3 and 2 not worth purchasing. Very little has changed imo
they want everyone to buy it, sims players are usually people with low end pcs ,
