Time to put the speculation to rest. The Sims 5 isn't going to be an MMO.
It's not an unwarranted clarification, given that we'd been told the next Sims game would include some kind of multiplayer but no details beyond that. Whether you considered the possibility of a Sims Online revival a threat or a wish, you can put it to bed. Maxis brought out game director Grant Rodiek to talk a bit about the next game, including the scope of multiplayer.
Rodiek explains that Project Rene is trying to achieve both a traditional Sims singleplayer experience and online creation too."We know that our players want to have that intimate, personal experience where they're exploring stories and ideas in singleplayer but there are also really cool things you can do with others where you share and create with your friends."
Rodiek was big on explaining that the transition from singleplayer to multiplayer is always going to be on your terms, whether you're in the mood to play alone or invite your friends in for a bit of co-op decorating. As for whether this co-op control will extend to Live Mode at all, Maxis hasn't explicitly said.
