The Sims Generations: Interview with Ryan Vaughan

Gameplanet: Why have you chosen Generations as your next expansion to the Sims? What flaw do you hope it will address from Sims 3?

Ryan Vaughan: In The Sims 3 and previous expansion packs, we found that players really found a “sweet spot” in the game once they progressed their Sims to the Young Adult and Adult life phases.

With The Sims 3 Generations, we wanted to go back to the core of The Sims 3 and give our players the ability to tell deeper, richer, and more complete life stories through tons of new age-specific content and features.

GP: Many Sims 3 fans are concerned there isn’t enough to do around the home and Generations would imply family interactions – do you believe the expansion will address their concerns?

Vaughan: I think our players are going to be blown away, not only by how much new content and features we’ve crammed into this Expansion, but by how much fun it is to play! While players will have the ability to tell the “Family Story” with their Sims, this pack is really more about what makes each stage of life unique and interesting.

EA's Ryan Vaughan, Producer for The Sims Generations.

Plus with Pranks, Booby Traps, and out of control Bachelor Parties (where you never know who will show up...), Generations has way more going on than just family interactions!

GP: How many generations are there and how will traits affect different generations? Will there be traits specific to generations?

Vaughan: Players can create as many generations of Sims as they can handle! We’ve also added two new Traits; Nurturing and Rebellious. While they’re not specific to any one life phase in the game, they’ll provide different benefits to Sims throughout their lifespan!

GP: Many fans have been hoping for seasonal/weather effects and pets for the next Sims expansion. Will these be included in Generations? If not, why not?

Vaughan: The Sims 3 Generations focuses on the Sims themselves; who they are and how they interact with each other at different ages. For example, we really wanted the Child age of Sims to be about imagination and make believe; the things that are going on inside their mind, and not necessarily the outside world. Each life phase is defined by how Sims are feeling internally.


GP: Can you describe the celebrations and their function, are they more than “something to do”? Will there be any seasonal celebrations such as Halloween?

Vaughan: There are four new celebration types: Graduation Parties, Teen Parties, Bachelor/Bachelorette Parties, and new Wedding Ceremonies. Each new party type has tons of fun new interactions as well as some hilarious new functionality. You never know what might happen at a Teen or Bachelorette party!

GP: Could you talk us through the memories system, its genesis and implementation?

Vaughan: In The Sıms 3 Generations, Sims can now track Memories of significant life moments in their Scrapbook, and for the first time ever in The Sims, players can upload and share their Sims’ memories on Facebook and TheSims3.com. Your Sim’s first kiss? First WooHoo? It can all be uploaded and shared online with a screenshot and custom description of your Sim’s memory. You can even create you own memories in the game and share them as well!


GP: What would you say to those Sims fans who say that Generations sounds like it should be a content update rather than a stand-alone expansion?

Vaughan: I’d say that with the brand new Teen Pranks and Booby Traps alone, The Sims 3 Generations is so much more than a content update. With Imaginary Friends, Bachelor Parties, Romantic Reputations, Memories, and the Day Care profession (just to name a few), our players are going to be blown away with how many new game changing features we’ve added!

GP: Will there be any new user-generated content features in Generations? If so, how will it be implemented; if not, why not?

Vaughan: I’m really excited about the brand new Video Cameras in The Sims 3 Generations! Not only can your Sims record home videos of their children growing up, but they can take the Data Discs out of the camera and replay their home movies on most of the in-game TV screens! Players can create tons of new movies with these objects that their Sims will enjoy throughout their lifetimes... We can’t wait to see what great new content our players will create with them!

基本答非所问的采访，出这个资料片是为了再次拉拢系列玩家。问及天气和宠物系统，给的回答是我们的重点是模拟市民，让玩家更多的关注自己的模拟市民，发挥想像创造乐趣。
提到了共有四个新的派对聚会：毕业典礼、青少年派对、单身派对、新的结婚仪式。
记忆系统：可以回顾小人的第一个吻，第一嘿咻什么的。上传分享这些截图到官方个人页面或Facebook。
模拟市民可以用摄像机记录成光盘用电视播放，玩家也可以编辑这些影片。
记者直接说这更象个内容补充，不象个资料片；回答确是有青少年恶作剧、有幻想的对象，添加了很多新的内容和功能。

囧rz=3

“模拟市民可以用摄像机记录成光盘用电视播放，玩家也可以编辑这些影片”——这个功能最无趣。
Sims3的这个资料片完全可以做成物品包，物品包完全可以做成package文件（算他8个物品包1000个东西，其实也不算多，电脑应该不卡吧）
总结：EA想钱想疯了！

世界末日啦，都在存钱买船票啦~

EA的老板也疯狂啦~

等翻译，我很期待这个纪录片

希望不大 只是4个party...“上当”太多次，总感觉EA“挂羊头卖狗肉”

看来是“大学”先出现再到“宠物”了，希望到时候别像宣传给力游戏反而不给力就好

"the things that are going on inside their mind, and not necessarily the outside world."这话其实就明说了,天气不会加在generations里面.
总之我很期待ep4了,正准备买正版呢

我买正版。模拟人生我从1代玩到现在，但是正版还是3代才开始买。
目前我在国外，所以买起来方便些，所以更要买正版了。
但是3代的物品包，我没有买过正版，中世纪也没有买正版。

我2代买的正版
3代无力支付。。。
我只是想说啊。这个世代，MS并没有很多亮点，买正版有些亏啦

个人觉得这次的资料片比野心好得多.........至少从一开始的预告片就比较朴实,也更贴近我们的生活,而这正是我(至少我是这个感觉)玩sims的最大动力,不一定要多么奢华的视觉冲击,平淡中见真情吧..........
个人见解,不喜勿喷...........

nana0504

看到主楼的翻译后好激动啊~~~很期待的几个功能都成真了~~~~存钱存钱~~~只等着6月来了~~

作为资料片发行的话绝对是鸡肋！
