    You know what… if it turned out that they just sent it back to the lab because someone had the idea to try and get all the Sims to run on AI or something I honestly wouldn’t be surprised. It is EA after all.

      EA: “We’ve added AI to allow your Sim to take care of themselves entirely without your help! Pay $14.99 a month to watch you Sim feed itself, apply for jobs, build and furnish their own home! You don’t have to do anything, except purchase additional packs your Sim requests to live it’s best life. Sims AI, Because We Deserve This”

      Edit: wait, crap, I just described an idle clicker.

        Honestly, a rich simulation human ant farm game could be pretty cool to chill out and watch. That’s sort of what The Sims is, except they’ll die if you don’t provide some input.

        (Also, why have we never gotten a SimAnt 2?)

          Sim Ant 2 would have been too good for EA after they got the rights. Can’t monetize ants? (But look, this ant has a rare gacha Hawaiian shirt! So cool)
