Current state of the game

[Bay Area Hu$$ler]

I'm amazed by the amount of details they pulled. I was waiting for the release since the first day it was introduced. But from what I'm seeing in YouTube, the game and its path sounds pretty linear. I'm fully aware of the fact that we're still at the beginning and inZOI is still on early access, but at its current state, do you see yourself bored and run out of things to do besides furnishing or creating a character? Or it keeps you entertained.

I'm planning to buy the game sooner or later but I want to understand at least at its current state, how much entertainment does it offer?

Yea I have been asking what actual gameplay is in the game, and have not got an answer yet, It looks interesting but what can we do? is there progression? is there an economy? collections? is it all coming soon? I really cant find anything.

If it's a life sim in the same essence of Sims 4 (but with different graphical style) I'll assume there is not any real "progression." It's basically a doll house to make stories with the characters you make. Make a family and have them interact. Do a "rags to riches story" starting with basically nothing and then "progress" your Zoi through life until they're rich and have a big house. I suppose you can progress through a career but games of this nature are usually about making your own stories with characters you make with no real end goal aside from what the player decides. I doubt there will be any kind of real simulated economy.

I reckon this type of game works best if you have more of a role players mind. Can't speak for everyone but for me the gameplay loop of managing my brainlets meters and effectively living their life is the gameplay for me. The progression so to speak would be job promotions or getting a new home etc.

I think I said this in another thread, but I suspect the reason they start us with so much money is so we can test out functions more easily, instead of having to grind money to get a home etc. I'm sure down the line progression will be a bit more challenging and we won't get such a strong start.

It has mini quests like achieving small goals but no like you have a series of quests to do to complete your embition or career progression.

And don't forget it's still early access, but if you definitely need a sense of typical game logic then don't buy it.
