Life By You - New Simulation Game

By

I am really excited about this game. It is open world and fully customizable. With customizable conversations! That will make creating stories for YouTube a blast!

Life by You Announcement Event

The announcement event just gave us a bit of a taste. Not too long. Right now the humans look rather crude and their movements are stilted, so I am hoping they will get more polish before the game is fully released, but I am gang ho to do some early testing as I am ready for a new life simulation game and am bored with The Sims 4.

Right now the look and feel of the game is giving me Sims 3 vibe and that is not a good thing. I really do like the look and feel of the Sims 4 and am expecting a new life simulation game to wow us with the graphics and look really slick and smooth. Not a throwback to graphics from 2009, when it is 2023. So I am hoping that those graphics are just for playtesting, and that the real great looking graphics will be in the pack release. I just prefer vibrant lush looking worlds.

I'm hoping with the fully customizable way the world and humans are that I will be able to add faith to the game. From the beginning they are sharing that queer lives will be featured. So will people truly be able to have Life by US and include what makes life meaningful by adding our faith or a made up faith to the game?

Pre-order

If you pre-order you get the Life Begins Pack includes:
  • Jumpstart Fashion Pack
  • Vehicle: Vintage Scooter
  • Walls to Floors Decor Pack
It's ok I guess. But I wonder if that means microtransactions and that my friend is not a fun prospect! It also shows a taste issue again. I don't know how diverse their team is, but they really need to add some black Africans and people from the African diaspora to their team, at least to up their taste game.

Early Access

You can pre-order now, but won't get access to the game until September 12, 2023. So that's a full six months in the future. I'll treat it as an early birthday gift.

Show Us Your Builds - Willow Creek

 World Map While playing the Sims 4, undoubtedly the world map has changed from the first time you played. That is true for me in many of my builds. I am a hybrid player. I love to build in the game, but I also enjoy playing. So my builds are typically for sims to live in or enjoy as a community lot. #SimTested Updated Willow Creek The map above is Willow Creek in my latest save BlueBoi Family.  I created the BlueBoi Family to play test my builds in my build world save. I just started a series of building homes from this Home Builder book I purchased over a decade ago. When I play tested the residential lots I built, I fell in love with the family and decided to play them. I saved the family to the gallery and then opened my Base Game save file which has my customized lots, families and clubs in it and plopped them into it, and then resaved it as a new save. This will be my new generations save.  Generations My first generations save, the Landgraabs, was lost June 2019 when a bumbleh

New Life Simulation Games on the Horizon and I'm Here for It

I am pretty stoked about the life simulation genre. It is a game genre I enjoy playing but it has been dominated by one developer, EA, for a long time. It seriously lacks diversity and is heavily skewed toward the queer community. Lastly, the Sims 4 is riddled with bugs and the developers ignore them and just churn out more packs because people are willing to pay more money hoping the game will be fixed and work as they envision. It won't, but they continue to live in their delusion. Wanting to get away from the toxicity of the Sims community and play a life sim game that actually works I was very excited when Life by You was announced earlier this year.  However, following the development of the game over the last few months and the promises by Rod Humble, I don't know if Paradox has given the game developer, General Manager Rod Humble , an ex Sims EVP and ex CEO of Second Life , the budget to hire people to really build a high-end life sim game. Life by You (LbY) is b

Sims 4 Infants - Good Idea, Horrible Implementation

By

The addition of infants in the Sims 4 is a great idea. You can tell tons of planning went into the infants mannerisms, interactions, and level of awareness. Unfortunately, just like the recent implementations of packs in the past three years, the addition of infants in the base game is riddled with bugs. The most annoying is that when you go to manage world and return the game places the infant out in the world far away from the home. Every SINGLE time. And secondly, if you leave the infant on the home lot with another parent the infants needs aren't met. So, clearly two very basic things the Sims team did not ensure was done wasn't. They did not include staging for the infant, so the infant loops the world when you are not actively controlling her/him. And when you leave the infant home the sims team did not ensure the infant's needs were met. I would give the sims team grace if this was the first time they implemented a little life state, but they did the SAME EXACT thi
