    I’m nervous about early access launch. While transparency has been great these comments show a tonne of people have not been following too closely and expectations may be misaligned. I suggest LBY should go out of its way to be really clear on what is in the game, what is definitely coming and what things are focuses for improvement. Best to launch the game in early access with fewer sales, a committed community and win over the casuals across the early access period rather than letting marketing over promise and sour the potential of a full release version. I’ve seen too many early access games mess this messaging up, get terrible reviews, have a panicked response and lose confidence of the publisher and community alike. Fingers crossed!

      Hopefully they make more diverse gameplay like a gamepack that adds alot to the game, world like expansion packs its needed I know they want modders to run it like sims 4 but I think some expansion of the world and everything else will be needed although they have been smart in giving modders the tools to do it themselves
      I still feel like they should create more to add to its base in the future of course such as new maps and maybe airport or other various ways to travel to new worlds, but game is looking great so far just hope it continues to amaze us the way it already has

With Sims 3, I only got some of the expansions, EA having messed everything up. I have dabbled in Sims 4 too, but EA, once again, made everything even worse. This, however looks nice and refreshing. Will be looking forward to see the early reviews.

      I'm in the same boat as you. I stopped playing during TS3 because they broke it so badly it was unplayable without mods. I haven't put a dime into TS4. I refused to after how badly they messed up 3. I had an absolute blast with those games and they ruined it for me. I still own all my games, but without a desktop at present, I can't play them. My laptop doesn't have a disc drive. I'm really hoping LBY can give EA a run for their money for once.

    I hope there are food shortcuts where I don’t have to worry about ingredient micromanaging. I like going to the grocery store, like that you had to in Sims 2. But I also like that there was a generic food volume added to the fridge. My sims quick meal MOST of the time. As I just don’t need to do every detail of cooking. I know some folks enjoy that, but I also just like clicking on a fridge and having my sim grab a quick sandwich or bowl of cereal without micromanaging ingredients for absolutely everything.

      @@JustVizzingMundane is such a generic word, one person can like one mundane thing and another can like another mundane thing. For example, there are people perfectly fine with not going to the grocery store in Sims 4 and who would be frustrated by going to the store for clothes and not just having them all accessible at game start, I like both clothing and food driving me to going to stores and clothes costing money. Its one of those little expenses in life that’s when its lost makes the game too easy to just stack wealth.
      But I don’t like, for example, laundry day. I also know some people want mowable lawns, not interested. Some people like the mechanics of weight gain loss systems (me) some people want their characters forever frozen in the way they came out the character creator.
      I do like collectables (which some completely ignore) so no I don’t want to waste time micromanaging ingredients for every dish when Simulated days are (by necessity) shorter than real life days and I’d rather spend my short simulated days on things other than micromanaging ingredients in a recipe. I just want to get rid of my simulated persons hunger and go ride a bike or skateboard around the world and get up to some drama and adventures. And I want it to be as easy as possible to have a generic thing like a bowl of cereal and not take more than two clicks in the kitchen. I could honestly care less what gets hunger out the way so I can do that.
      Almost everyone who is into simulation games likes some form of micromanagement and things other people would find mundane. They just don’t like them all, we like different things.

      They'll fix them. The game was forcefully released very early by Paradox being stupidly greedy for having good looking spreadsheets for their shareholders. These models are likely placeholders and never intended in the release version for the public. Just give them time. These things take time and sometimes that time also has a working order that things have to be done in. They may have other things they need to do before they fix the models.

We all know how it went and we still watching cranes creeping the skylines LOL.
      What I want to say is: what's the point of making a promo video showing off the worst version of what you got?

      @fransmith3255 2 месяца назад

      @@diegomazzoni5322 Yes, well pre-ordering ANY game is never smart. Hopefully, Paradox has learned it's lesson with City Skylines II. Paradox used to be a good gaming publisher - now they're not. And City Skylines is only ONE of the MANY games Paradox has screwed up recently. There's a long list of recent games they've forced out early recently. City Skylines II is just the most well known one.
      I didn't say the characters would end up perfect, but they'll fix them better than the state they're in now - they're obviously not the state the devs intended to release for the public. For those not trusting that, best to wait until you see the game in a state you're prepared to buy it before buying it. Either way, it can't be worse than EA's shallow buggy garbage. At least Life By You has a lot more gameplay potential than The Sims 4 ever did. Let's hope Paradox aren't even more irretrievably stupid than they've already been in forcing the Life By You to release waaaaay before the game was ready.
      DON'T pre-order Paradox games - they're basically ALL coming out really bad these days - and City Skylines wasn't the first. If you want a good publisher, Hooded Horse is amazing! They're releasing really great games that are actually FINISHED and POLISHED and contain heaps of gameplay. Hooded Horse all the way!! 😀

    Comparing these animations from other life sims including ones with smaller teams... its just so bad. These characters walk with bent knees and head bent towards the ground. The hands are constantly held like a claw, and the anatomy is completely off. I dont see how this can be fixed in early access unless they completely redo the character models - which would take years (edit: apparently this wouldnt take years from comments below). Could someone who knows about game development weigh-in on whether its possible to completely redo game characters during early access?

    • @canariawing

      i've played games in the past where they've completely redone characters (as well as animations) during early access. it's possible and has been done before. i really do think that they need to hire on more modelers and animators regardless tho, particularly ones that have experience in working on human characters

      @evanboeckler9610 2 месяца назад +17

      I agree, the character models and animations look bad. But, don’t worry, it’s actually one of the last parts of the game to be finalized. Hopefully, what we are seeing here are placeholder animations, as I have noticed that the fingers don’t tend to move at all. It’s actually relatively easy to change or add animations in unity, and character proportions can be changed anytime. After all the settings are already in game, but hopefully they will adjust the default values to look better.

    Also its not balanced some of the textures have better geaphics and some have worse so it is kot very coherent. And the lighting/shaders is very gray/dim/dull at times. Makes the humans in game look. Sbit sickly. And the ui looks very outdated too I dont think airbrushed is the right way to. Go maby a bit shiner would help? Also the human models faces are sometimes scary with their eyes and mouth moving.
    Also the animations/humans interacting with stuff or walking seem very slow and tedious.

    To me it looks like its half way between alpha snd beta somewhere and not release ready. I just wnana help make this game be the best that it can be. Because we do need more goos simulstion games and yours have some niche nifty festures I hate to see the potention go to waste because of other things.
    I hope this helped.

      I'm sure the devs are well aware of the problems you mention. Sadly, the game was stupidly forcefully released by the Publisher, Paradox. You are correct - the game is at Alpha standard, but I suspect that all this stuff will be fixed over time. The devs are pretty enthusiastic. They just had bad luck with Paradox, their publisher. If you read about Paradox recently, you'll find that they forcefully released quite a few games FAAAAAR too early - see City Skylines II as an obvious example. Paradox has taken a backflip the last month, and pushed back a lot of games now, because of massive player backlash. Paradox are most likely currently licking their wounds...

    I think I figured out why the shoulders and arms bother me. I feel like women tend pull/tuck their elbows into their waists, whereas on the characters they hang more loosely, more commonly seen in men. It's only a small tuck, but it makes a massive difference in posture/how we hold ourselves. This tucked in position makes upper arms hug the torso, then forearms flare out a little at the hips. It also turns out/opens the shoulders a little as our inner arms face forwards more.
