Years went by, and rumors of “the next Sim City” came and went. EA tried to play off of the name with Sim City Societies, but everyone knows that Societies was never a true Sim City successor.
It’s odd because usually a franchise dies after a horrible game, not after an amazing one. Unfortunately, Sim City 4 is effectively where the franchise died. The Sim City franchise has been great – I could go into details about the joys of everything from Sim City for SNES all the way up to Sim City 4, but I’ll spare the details.
By that I mean I’ll play it for a few days at a time, then take a break for a few months, then come back to it.
