Has InZoi been better than the Sims in your opinion?

  I’ll just keep playing sims 2, the greatest sims. And all the old mod sites are still up and I can hoard thousands of clothes mods. There was a free installer that came with all the dlc that got taken down, but I still have it and it works.

  I’m looking forward to the release of paralives (this year hopefully). Been watching the development for a few years, seems like the devs care about the project.

  From the dev videos, the main difference between Inzoi and Paralives is the personality and art design of both the world and the sims. Inzoi tries too hard to be realistic and loses all quirkiness and fun that came with the Sims. The animations and interactions are very well designed.

    Good to have competition. I’ve never noticed this one. I’ll look more into it

    Would have loved for them to release a demo for the steam next fest

  Tried it when it was initially released and it was crap. Did it get any better since?

    Well it doesn’t play like a complete potato anymore at least in the character creator on low settings 😮‍💨 but I will say their low settings like like high setting on most games. Turn off ray tracing for some ungodly reason it’s in by default

  I was hyped for it’s release earlier, but now that it’s not out of early access yet and they’re already releasing DLC, I think I’ll give it a pass.

    I put on my pirate hat for this one to be honest

  I heard even the dev didn’t think it was as good, so I didn’t even bother trying it, tbh.

  Is it a way for people to created their perfect inhuman girlfriend?

  I played one zoi through most of the idol career track. The career gameplay is very similar to Sims 4, in that you go to your work lot and try to perform all your work tasks before the end of the day. Similarly to Sims 4, I didn’t feel like there was a meaningful sense of progression in my skills and career. I went from having 0 in the career relevant skills like singing and dancing to having them maxed out in, IIRC, a little over an in-game week, in which time I didn’t perform in any idol shows because that didn’t seem to be implemented: work was always training, never performing. Like Sims, you never struggle to advance a skill or have any kind of challenge to overcome, you can improve at anything indefinitely by practicing alone. I started a romance with a coworker, but it wasn’t very interesting: it didn’t cause drama at work, it didn’t affect how my other coworkers thought of me (which was mostly “not at all”), and it wasn’t clear to me if the other zoi had any skills, interests or hobbies outside of work. Similarly to the Sims, I think we were at the point where I could have proposed after only one date, which mostly consisted of hanging out at the park. It seems like, similarly to Sims, the actual game mechanics are fairly basic and you need to invent a good deal of your own fun.

  I liked being able to customize items by importing textures. The AI texture generator isn’t any good, but the option to noodle around in GIMP and then put my texture on something in the game is neat. I also imported images to make custom posters for my zoi’s room. There is also an option to turn a photo of an object into a 3D model of a decoration to place in your house or wear as an accessory, which I had mixed results with but was at least novel.

  Can I do awful things to the inzoi people?

  Half the fun of the Sims is the fucked up sandbox you get.

  So far, the critical component that the Sims clones lack is character. Sims understands that Sims are a bit different than real people and they go out of their way to make them quirky and a bit hyperbolic. The clones seem to try and be real life simulators which I would argue is difficult to actually make enjoyable. Real life is boring.

    Boring for whom? Life is not boring at all. But I think I know what you mean

  last time i looked at inzoi it sucked ass and was filled with ai and poor performance.

  • nfreak@lemmy.ml ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Yeah the entire game is basically AI slop. Hard pass.

  • frongt@lemmy.zip ⁨5⁩ ⁨months⁩ ago

    Isn’t it supposed to be filled with AI? Like isn’t that the entire point?
