To prepare you for what awaits you, here are 5 reasons to start playing The Sims 4
1: It is amazing for character creation
Some games allow you to customize a character. The Sims 4 you can create as many as you like.
Make yourself, your friends, characters from your favorite shows or your own original characters. Each time you create a Sim, you customize every aspect, from their personality traits to their life goals to their favorite colors. It’s all up to you.
You can also customize your Sims’ appearance. There is a wide range of customizable facial features, numerous hair options and clothes to suit every fashion sense.
Create Sims you will love, Sims that have depth, goals and their own personality traits. Or make Sims you don’t like and take away the ladder to their pool. Whatever suits your taste.
2: It’s like DIY series are playable
Build your dream house or a house that you think your Sim would like. You plan the layout, choose the furniture and can even design the landscape. Would you like to gift your flower child Sim a sprawling garden? Or your cranky loner Sim a basement to chill out in? Do it.
Build from scratch or renovate existing lots – you have control over how detailed (or not) you want your design experience to be. Hate what you did to the place? Scrap and rebuild.
Or let them sit in an empty lot for a while.
3: You will experience more life
The Sims 4 it’s all about playing with life. Your choices shape your Sims’ lives, and those choices go far beyond what they wear or what couch they have.
In your game, Sims are born and die. They will have childhoods that prepared them for success (or not) because you guide them and their parents. They will pursue careers where they can rise to the top or get fired depending on how they behave on a day-to-day basis. They will even fall in love and start their families if you guide them to it.
To play The Sims 4 means experiencing the key moments in your Sims’ lives directly with them – the ups and downs.
4: You can show off
If you have great ideas for characters or rooms, not only can you create them, but you can also share them with the community in the gallery (EA account required).
Share your creations and get comments or look for inspiration and content you might want to download into your game. There are a lot of amazing creations to discover.
5: We mentioned the “free” thing, right?
From October 18th you can get started right away and let your creativity run free The Sims 4 after you download it for free. If you’ve ever thought about playing, now is the time.
