What you think will project Rene will be upgrade for Sims 4 or new Sims game? If it be upgrade to Sims 4 I hope that it will bring open World like ones in Sims 3.

That would be impossible. If it's a completely new stand-alone game, then it would certainly be possible. But open world for Sims 4 would require the game to be rewritten from scratch.

Oh, really? I had stopped following its progress when it had appeared to have dissolved into vapour ware. So it's now going to be a mobile game? Pity.

Agree..no way it can go open world from its current version without a total rewrite. It is not as simple as combing them and making them open world. Current format is not created for open world. Total rewrite would have to be done.

I am betting that Project Rene is probably going to be downgrade for The Sims 4 and not an upgrade in addition to being a new game. Of course EA would probably never openly admit this, because they still want multiplayer for The Sims franchise and mistakenly think that including Project Rene on mobile and not only just multiplayer is a good idea. At least in part because I think that more people could potenentially be playing this game on mobile than PC despite the fact that a lot of mobile games suck overall and probably most mobile games (but not all) are more of a "cash grab" than anything else.

They won't include everything sims 4 has now with dlc. They want to make money by selling dlc again but infants and toddlers and maybe seasons be in the base game.

At least seasons, toddlers (because they have been around much longer in The Sims franchise than infants), preteens, color wheel, apartments, and even height sliders are apparently supposed to be basegame in addition to maybe (but not officially confirmed or at least not that I am aware of) infants, swimming pools, ghosts, basements, pets (or at least cats, dogs, and horses), and something similar to Get to Work and Dine Out being basegame as well when Project Rene first comes out, but for better experiences with that kind of stuff (except for color wheel) there unfortunately might be micro transactions involved as well. It is just that none of us know the full extent of this yet, but overall I am not excited about Project Rene and even less people are going to be excited about this game after finding out it is not going to be The SIms 5 that was officially confirmed by EA.

I would not play this or any game like it on mobile. I tried Rival Star Racing and others on mobile they suck and are a bigger money sink than this game is without mobile. I am guessing better have deep pockets to play this on a mobile.

I think that for us will be great if Life by You isn't aborted then project Rene will be Sims 5, there isn't real competition to Sims

If you play Avakin (horrible mobile "game") for an hour, you will see EVERYTHING about what PR will be, but with worst graphics. Utter crap.

It could be a potential red flag if the graphics of Project Rene including even on PC look similar to previews of this game while it is still in Alpha. If the graphics alone are not enough to turn people away from this game it could be the micro transactions instead. Especially if the micro transactions are worse than The SIms 4 because of Project Rene being included on mobile and being free to play to begin with. I would also be surprised if Project Rene is going to be open world, because I am not expecting it to be similar to The SIms 4 not being open world. If I am not mistaken the last SIms mobile game to be open world was The SIms Freeplay which has some similarities to The SIms 3 but based on mobile, but the problem is that The Sims 3 was abandoned once The SIms 4 came out officially.

Surprise me if it is not big money sink most mobiles are

Oh yeah, surely what we saw isn't final, but are we expecting anything too different? We kinda know Maxis style, so we know more or less what to expect.

What I mean was about the gameplay, everything we saw in the alpha reveals is the same game frame as Avakin. You will have one character, and possibly start with 1 free home location. Then, you can visit places (hubs) where you may or may not have activities, where other people may or may not be, and doing those activities will score you 1 freebie item or game credits. Jobs are just in-loco activities, nothing as "fancy" as in TS4. You will be able to purchase additional homes, at a premium cost. Your avatar? 10 per cent of store items will be available for standard game currency, the rest is locked behind real life bucks and running on a very limited time. Dances are locked, emotes are locked, clothing is locked, tattoos are locked, everything will be locked behind a paywall. It will be a game exclusively for the whales.

I might be wrong... But sadly, I am probably right.

No, there are plenty of leaks on the net for Project Rene and it is exactly this:

The only thing which is missing here is that it will have a multiplayer. Companies love multiplayer because then your ingame store is much more profitable. People want to show off their shiny objects which they purchased. It is stupid but it works.
