I’m so happy to see paralives developing. You guys put your heart and soul to create this beautiful game.
I like this ❤️
I love that element of this. I fear for them regarding the hype though. I've never seen anything hyped end up meeting the high expectations. They're also leaving things up to our imaginations
@@shield_maiden_ definitely not leaving the customization vague, but things like school and work seem to be up to our imaginations. Aside from that, it seems like a fully fledged life sim game!
sims 4 could fcking never
@@shield_maiden_ I honestly don’t have high expectations. I’d take the build tools as they are right now because they already allow for so much cool stuff. I don’t need my paras to live the most exciting lives either, I will enjoy the cozy mood of the game as is. As for the character creator, I don’t really mind if it’s not as good as the Sims, I rarely do create new characters and they don’t have to wear the best outfits or have the most unique face as long as the game allows me to give them personality, which I think Paralives will definitely focus the most on
Words cannot DESCRIBE how excited I am for this game to come out
Lol me too
@@skyegroome223 lol, give them time, it'll come out as long the simmers stay interested in a game that doesn't sound like it'll rob them
I’m not sure it’s a real game, I heard was patreon/donation scam. 5 years and still no real gamer play. I hope is real though.
@@jaybee4288 I agree, I'm at a wait and see stance, it's better not to get your hopes up too much, not with an indie game, a lot of the ones on Steam are scams, they do make them, but put out a bit of a game, but NEVER add to it, so you get stuck not being able to move passed a certain point, I have a few like that, they're really nice games, but it's set up to eventually add more to it, but they don't, and so you can't get passed a certain area of the game, because it's not finished! And they never do finish it either! I have one that is like that, and instead of finishing it, they put out a new version of it, the very next year!
But I bought both at the same time, not knowing they neither one had been finished, and they never were either! Since when I bought them it had already been 2 years since the 2nd one came out! And I really loved those games, they're a demolition and building games, like House Flipper, but you actually play in the world, driving to places and working on different projects, the last one even made it where you can play as a woman, not just a man!
So because them and others who were a lot worse, I'm not going to let myself get anymore excited about this game! I mean when I saw this, with it just having the house, for 46 seconds, I thought this is just to get more people to join their Patreon, and then it ends with them asking for us to join their Patreon! So yeah I'm kind of over it now!
@@jaybee4288 yeah me too, and I don't think we should get our hopes up too much.... it's a game with a small development team and a lot of high expectations, it does look nice, and I don't think they would put this much work into a scam, but we've yet to see much real gameplay, as in how paras interact with eachother, and what they can do around the house and around town. We also don't know what the price will be when it's released. But the dev team has confirmed things like weather and pets, and that it won't be DLC. Which gives me a lot of hope. But idk, we'll wait til it's released, and we'll see what gets done.
The art of this game is so calming I don’t know how to explain it
Like a Studio Ghibli movie?
Both have a watercolor art style.
coming away from what other games are doing trending into a more "realistic" vs stylistic art style for a simulation game; paralives folds away from the uncanny valley. On it's own it might seem underdeveloped but when you compare it to other games it makes way more sense for this genre and fits much better.
I think it has cozy game vibes, no hard contours etc. For me it's also calming😊
I just love the calming graphics, it's so wholesome to see that after a stressful day..❤
I'm not a fan of the artstyle, but what I'm a BIG fan of is how properly-sized everything is. In The Sims 4 you have a bunch of stuff that's the wrong size or it looks like it's from a mobile game. Here, objects actually look like they were made to be used by a person. Still, if I had to pick between the two artstyles I'd definitely pick Paralives' over TS4's artstyle. Paralives seems like it has some neat PBR on top of the cartoony stuff, which is miles better than how everything looks matte and flat in TS4.
I love the graphics too. People hate on Sims 4 graphics for being too cartoonish but let's be real- ts4 i cartoonish but Paralives' graphics are even more cartoonish but gets praised lol Love both though
I love the "square-ish" texture of flowers: it may be not very realistic, but the "old game" vibe it gives is totally a plus for me! ❤️
I agree, it honestly fits the style of the game really well
I think that's actually intentional.
I'm not a fan, but also not _not_ a fan, although I can see how lower poly(?), simpler flowers and stuff would really help the game's performance, and at this point I will definitely take this if I can play without game-breaking lags
Well it also looks like that because the game isn't finished yet ! However even with these graphics it already looks wonderful
I think it clashes too much with the rest of the game, usually you want all models to have a similar amount of detail so everything fits together nicely and here the roses look very low-poly compared to everything else... But that's a tiny detail :-) I only hope the gameplay is being worked on just as much as the visuals so we don't end up with another building sim like TS4.
How is no one talking about the lovely music?!?! 😂 I just love the piano, it's got such a chill, yet happy vibe. I'm thinking a day early in the summer, in the morning 🥰
Yesss!! 😍 I’m super excited to make memories in this game 😅
That music just makes me wanna cry out of happiness.❤
@@jomontanee same. Especially the building video.
I need to see the parafolks interacting with de objects! 🥰 Because all the rest it is just amazing!!
This really will be the Sims biggest competition well done guys it so beautiful
Not to be petty, but I hope they become a real threat to EA's sales.
@@societycrumbles ft, EA deserves it at this point
With reshades and CC on Sims 4, Paralives still looks bad and dated.
@@mela6885 I disagree, TS4 looked atrocious from the start with the mobile game look. Plus if we're going by that logic, can't paralives have custom content and reshade too? lol
@@mela6885 what? It doesn't, it just doesn't have realistic graphics
they put more effort in one garden, than EA in a whole world in their game
i love that we're getting so many reviews this year hopefully a release date reveal will be soon 👀👀👀
I believe there is still a lot of work to do, better if they dont compromise a release date so they take all the time needed without that unwanted preassure of a release date. Lets let them be and do their best
@@youtubewontletme ofc nobody is rushing them they'll release it when they're ready
@@babyg3441 i believe they still need a couple of years at least, there is a lot of coding for what they want to do, but i also believe that its pretty obvious that, so far, the wait will be worth it
@@youtubewontletme i agree👍🏾❤️
@@youtubewontletme it does seems like they are halfway done tho
My goodness! Everything here just gives me HAPPINESS. The house style, the trees moving in the wind, that green retro bicycle, the garden chairs etc! AND THE MUSIC!!!
I almost cry out of joy.❤❤
The artstyle is so simple, yet intricate and delicately made. I love it.
I’m so glad we will be able to build older houses!
It's so cute! Looks very peaceful. And I love the lil balcony!
I was looking for a comment like this, that balcony is amazing! I saw a house like that today and was like damn I wish I could do that in sims
It's been 2 years since I've learned about the amazing things you all are doing, and I'm STILL excited.
LIVING for this tranquil art style, such gorgeous colour shades. Would LOVE if the picnic basket was functional !
Is it weird I'm so excited to see a recycling bin? Looking great!!!
The visual is so clear and beautiful!! Not blurred and one dimensional like you know who.
i get so excited every time i get previews for this game
The music sounds so lovely. It's such a soothing lullaby.
This is soothing. I can't wait to feel the nostalgia this game will give.
The progress since 'House Building Gameplay' a year ago. Where that video was a proof of concept, with a house that didn't really look like a house. Here it's showing off all the accomplishments made during development so far, an actual house with lots of character!
This is a game I am really excited to play on release
there are so many little details i'm obsessed with. the fact that there's a recycling bin alone, the little electric box outside?? there's a break in the foliage that even makes me wonder if they set it up to be able to pathfind to because it might be functional? the little UNDER ROOF metal detail piece?? a RAIN BARREL?? im losing it
I always say that but here we go again: I can't wait to play this game.
I love the style and clutter and all the possibilities!!!
Absolute perfection. The detail and care put into this game so far is EVERYTHING a simulation player would want and dream about. Can't wait for Paralives to be available.
This is so beautiful, I can't wait to play it! You can really tell how much passion is put into every single detail.
I really love what the Paralives devs are doing. This home is so beautiful!
I'm OBSESSED with the art style of this game. It looks so good!!!
This looks so beautiful, I can't wait to start building in Paralives!
The Sims 5 will see the light of day sooner than Paralives
I wish the best for every last one of artists behind this
It's a beautiful song, well done Andrei!
it’s so amazing that we get to watch the progression of this game in real time. you can really tell the dedication and hard work that you’ve all put in to this masterpiece, and i honestly get that same warm feeling that sims 2 brought when i see how this game is coming along. you guys are making history, and there’s no doubt this game will reach a legendary status of its own. spectacular work you guys 👏🏼
Yes! I remember how Maxis was quite open with Sims 2 development and this gives that same feel of being on their forum and talking to the devs about the game and what was coming and all that. I miss that, but Paralives is really bringing that feeling back. I'm actually excited about the game! And that's the biggest thing.
Everything about this is so lovely. From the music, to the small details of the environment. Absolutely beautiful
This is so pretty. The change in artstyle is refreshing even if it’s not my cup of tea. It’s like drinking a nice cold juice when craving a cold drink instead. I really can’t complain because it’s gets the job done and very well! The building and lifestyle in this game is something I really want at the end of the day and I’m just glad it’s coming soon!!
Same
The art style isn’t my preference buuuuuut it’s not a deal breaker at all because the art is still well done and hopefully, easier for them to work with. There can always be skins and mods that can be added later but nothing can replace good game design and game play!
Omg, I saw the thumbnail thinking it was some sort of sims 4 speed build with reshade, then I looked at the title... Guys, this is just amazing! Keep it up! Love from Italy ❤️😭
this is the most aesthetic and calming simulation game teaser has ever made
This house is so cute, and the cruiser bike?? Love it
I honestly can't wait to play this. Thank you so much for the efforts of creating this. For some reason the whole aesthetic of this environment is so relaxing and warm.
This is BEAUTIFUL!!!! 😍
Cher 🤗💕💕
@@norijean3279 💕💕
I agree! I especially love how there are dandelions in the garden! 🌻🌼🌷🌹
AHHHH STILL SO HYPED AND EXCITED TO SUPPORT PARALIVES, THANK YOUUU DEVELOPERS FOR THIS
If this game doesn't go completely viral then I don't believe in the world anymore-
I can definitely see the ghibli inspiration. Just look at that roof shot with those clouds!
Honestly felt like I was watching one of those architecture videos instead of a gaming video - it looks truly lovely! I especially appreciated the smoke coming from the chimney - that was well done!
Love this! 🥰 It reminds me so much of The Sims 2 - amazing!
Im so excited to play this game. I've been following you for 2 years and the progress you've made is incredible.
We brazilians are looking forward to the launch
This is so adorable! I hope we get a lot of different architectural styles. I love quaint and industrial and everything in between.
Seeing the progress of this game inspired me to get off my ass and pursue a career in game development, and now I'm a year into getting a degree 💪🏻 I seriously can't wait until this game comes out!! I get excited with every update!
Good luck with your degree
The music is just so chilling and relaxing. I cannot wait to get my hands on the soundtrack.
So many favourite things but those lights.... the fact that we get table ones and matching swinging ones in the garden is just wow. chefs kiss.
The over-expecting part of me would love to be able to use the waterbutt.... not for anything too crazy, maybe just for like kids to splash people with or something.
Thanks for a great video. :)
❤
Words cannot describe how much I want to climb those vines and break in
The graphics, the style, everything is just so pretty from Paras to backgrounds, gahhh, it's amazing, can't wait to play...
i've been going through so much pressure right now, watching this at this hour, feels great, thank you so much, this was calming.
The furniture reminds me of stuff I’d see in animal crossing (with the new update anyways) and I’m so here for it. I always feel like games lack decor and furniture that I’d actually use as opposed to CC but I’m loving everything I see with Paralives!!
i've been waiting for this game for almost 4 years now, i can't wait
Wishlisted on Steam :) take your time and take care of yourselves!
My heart is melting, it looks so welcoming and cozy. I absolutely adore the art style!
Omg, the graphics and music in this game! I hope that this track will be in game. I'm in love! 😊
The art style of this is STUNNING 😍
Andrei's music is so beautiful, I love it!! 😭❤❤❤ Love the direction you guys picked, with the classic/accoustic instruments... Cannot wait for the release of the game's OST (and of course, the game itself! All of it is looking amazing!! 🥰😍🤩)
The music is so beautiful. I can already imagine playing and just listening to the calm vibes of the music.
Reminds me of Studio Ghibli.
Probably because Paralives is going for a bright, watercolor style.
It looks amazing so far! When it finally comes out, it will probably definitely be me go-to just to unwind at the end of a stressful day ☺️
This is going to be every thing we’ve needed PLUS.
OMG THIS HOUSE LOOKS SO CUTE AND WHOLESOME! I want one of those too!
Maaaaaan this really has come a long way 🎉
Cheers to you guys! 🍻
Love seeing the progress on the building tools!
the colors are all so smooth and blend so beautifully I love it
I literally CANNOT wait to play paralives 😭💛 you guys are doing such an amazing job
It's on my wishlist for ages now, I can't wait to play this game!
Everytime I see a new video of Paralives, I get a bit more excited for when the game releases.
Can't wait to create my own Para and live with these
IT LOOKS SO CLEAN WOW
it looks so beautiful so far! excited for the future of this game. wish i could play it now, the built mode so far looks like what i want in a game 😄
I love it, so cute and cozy ! I’d be curious to see if in the future you will think about more diversity with international architectural styles and international urbanisms styles and something less usa centered like the sims (apart specific packs or add-on). Just saying, we are many players from all around the world playing and liking the sims but sometimes, it will be good to have opportunities to build a neighbourhood not so typical american (stereotypical ?)with those suburban green gardens on the front and the white square sidewalks. This would be a major asset to your game for the future and something that would differentiate Paralives from The Sims. 😉
A estética do jogo está tão linda 😭 eu espero que se mantenha nesse estilo até o projeto final, tô muito ansiosa pra poder jogar.
This house look so beautiful! I love the cozy cottage feel!
One thing I would love to see later on, maybe as an expansion pack is like a historical pack where you can choose from maybe 3 different eras (Tudor, Victorian, etc) and be transported to a separate world where everything is aesthetically in that style ( build mode, items and clothes, the jobs and the skills)
that's the sims
Each update makes me more and more excited. You guys are doing an amazing job!
This house looks very cute, i love the bike leaning in the garden frame! and the recycle bins are a good feature! 😄
Looks amazing! I can't wait to see an entire town in this style.
Please! Release the gameee, we need this in our lives!
Ilike how the bushes are moving, such a cute detail.
looks so amazing.
I hope there'll be more/ better shadows.. a few things (such as the basket on the table) seems to be floating.
But its a nice art style overall. things fit together!
It's beautiful, I nearly teared up! Development looks promising, I'm proud of you guys. I CAN wait for this to be nice and polished for the big day!
I had a rough day today, and this is exactly what I needed to buck up, much love from England :)
Espero con ansias a Paralives. Me encanta, y me gustó el detalle de la vereda, es muy diferente. Y el hecho de que está al lado de otra casa que se vió ahí, el muro que los separa, se ve tan real. Todo el terreno se ve tan realista, los detalles que se vieron me encantaron. Solo voy a rogar que mi computadora pueda hacer correr el juego, porque sino me muero de la tristeza jjajajaja Paralives, I love yoouuuuuu
Pd: la música es tan relajante!
seeing pretty much the full process of paralives’ development since that first video with the windows is honestly insane
I love the detail of the chimney expelling smoke💘
This looks great! I love the little details like the plants moving slightly with the wind, it makes it look so lively!
I've already seen this on patreon but I nearly cried AGAIN at how beautiful this is. I'm so freaking excited. Highly recommend supporting them on patreon if you have the spare cash, they are super good at listening to what we want with polls and such, and it's so interesting to see the behind-the-scenes of making a game. Also for those who are asking for gameplay details... let me just say that all the public information is a few months behind the patreon 🤐
Love that creeping plant on the walls!
I've been waiting for years! So excited! 🤩
The game is not even finished and I already love it
This is Stunning 🥰🥰 Im so ready for this game. Love this cozy little house, the design, the graphics, the look of realism is just perfect.
So excited omg you guys are artists and craftsmen. It's so refreshing to see games being made with love and passion. No matter how long it takes, we'll be there for the release. The greatests works of arts take time 💖✨
This is so beautiful - it is evident in every part of this game that the people who create it genuinely love it and put so much work into it. Thank you :)
Aww this is so cute! I love all the plants and especially the ivy crawling up the house! I'm also really happy to see a recycling bin in addition to a regular garbage one! Recycling is super important.
I'm also noticing the spandril? Whatever the decorate ornament thingy is called that is in the peak of the roof! And the latticed wall at the side of the porch! Definitely gives the house an older feel.
Can we please see how personality and relationships work? More important to me than visuals. Sims 4 is basically only a dollhouse now id like to see deep gameplay
I hope you will take your time and not rush! Your work is amazing!
👏👏👏 Attention to detail, aesthetic warm atmosphere, beautiful! absolutely magnificent progress team!!! keep it up!
this looks amazing! i love how the plants and flowers move with the breeze
