Any male gamers enjoying this game and if so what is the appeal? I'm still on the fence so trying to get some reviews from other men

If you want to support the devs now and show them a Sims competitor is appreciated, sure, go for the buy. If you're looking for something comparable to Sims 4 content-wise, in terms of complete gameplay loops and features, this isn't it yet. It's very barebones.

I mean, yeah. I've always enjoyed life sims. Idk why they're seen as feminine. It's stupid.

For example reading the reviews from female gamers they are already talking about wanting to take their Zoi's shopping, clubbing etc which again isn't really an appealing game loop to most male gamers so that's why I differentiate and ask for a male review i can relate to

i didn't think this was a thing. wow

Just doing my thing; sleep untill eight. have a bite and go out then do some work before enjoying company in the park. things I can't get in real life since I'm some kind of a loner who can't share his intersts with others down here.

Dollhouse games are feminine because they attract the female demographic the most so most of it's player base ends up being female. Games like Call of Duty, Battlefield, RDR2, KCD2 etc are games that are aimed toward typically what most Men like to play therefore are seen as masculine

I'm not trying to be controversial. 90% of content creators for the Sims 4 are female for a reason. Dressing their Sims up, playing house, throwing parties isn't a game loop appealing for most men which is why I'm asking if men like this game and why to see if the gameloop in Inzoi is different to the Sims and more than just playing house?

If someone out there likes playing house, throwing parties, dressing up their Zoi's etc then me asking them for their thoughts Is going to be pointless because their reasons for liking the game will be very different to my reasons as I'm not interested in that gameloop. That's why the Sims 4 is boring to me

This is an interesting take. Personally, I’ve never been able to get into the FPS genre — I get motion sickness almost immediately. I don't think my motion sickness makes me less manly though? For me, a game like this is about living vicariously through an avatar you create, and designing the home you’ve always dreamed of. If someone finds satisfaction in building a life and a space they love in a virtual setting, then anyone regardless of gender should be able to find some form of enjoyment with this genre.

Sometimes I just like a cozy game between all the other RPGs I play. :)

[Plutoski]

this game is catered for gossip loving extroverted girls who have dated 50 or more men and are into fashion makeup beauty and probably got a youtube makeup/hairstyle channel with 600 subscribers.

I'm enjoying it. I think they are fun and I've been playing since the first Sims which I got into because of playing back to the first Sim City. I think they are on the way to producing a like product over time that will challenge the Sims if not to replace them, perhaps to drive them to stop gouging the consumer in the sheer amount of DLC.

What about the story telling aspect and that would take up most of the gameloop. How are you finding it?

Also I agree with you anyone SHOULD be able to enjoy what they enjoy. I'm simply explaining why certain forms of entertainment appeal to male gamers and female gamers. We are different. Most I'd say appeal to both genders. The Witcher series for example but you aren't going to find many women playing Total War compared to men. Again for obvious reasons. The Sims 4 is similar with it being appealing to females more. When you are getting DLC's about dressing up your Sims in "cute" outfits and new party events then are you surprised when most of the content coming out for this is from females. As I said this gameloop doesn't appeal to me and most male gamers so that's why I'm seeking the reviews from male gamers
