Perhaps EA saw that Sims can't compete with Crusader Kings 2 in quantity of DC. The battle was lost before it begun.

I would definitely if Rob and Troy just don't like fantasy games. Age of Wonders 3 add on and Endless Legend went gold. Time to talk about Sims!

Very good episode! While I haven´t played the The Sims 4, at least playing the previous titles (which I did all of them), I do felt the same about how after a while I does feel that overcome the initial issue of limited resources don´t take much time. Still I can understand that on ground of avoiding excessive micromanagement, that would limit the player on what could be created or expressed. Other thing I did found is how at least on The Sims 3 (at least I could remember, could be wrong) the world, since you could not visit the neighbors and public shared spaces, felt more alive and natural. Before that wasn´t hard to just create a empty box filled with sims to interact with your main sims (since you wouldn´t see the inside anyway).

I'm afraid I'm one of those people who likes many strategy games but just can't pull together any enthusiasm for The Sims.  It made a fine podcast topic, though; just because I'm not into playing the game doesn't mean it isn't interesting to listen to people who are discussing it.
