Ugh......The Sims are a blight on gaming.  Nothing but shallow shovel ware.  There is no depth to any of the ppl, items, or jobs that you do.  Nothing you do matters. "

Wow. Ryan is playing a game I actually give a couple shits about!

Which came first.... 
The Sim Parent Eating Whale, or 
The Orphans who's Tears created the Ocean (that the Whale's Live in)... 
 
think about it.

Why are so many people complaining about too much text? They must be too young to remember video games used to involve text a lot more. Reading doesn't mean it can't be fun.

This is just wacky enough to intrigue me. Though I think they should have resurrected the original Sim brand and just called it SimKingdom... Or Simdom... or Simedieval.

Terrible Quick Look. 
 
Might have been a good idea to work out the basics (like how to move the camera) before starting the recording.

This was pretty funny. I might buy this game later when it goes down in price.

I kind of think this looks fun.

I think I want this.

I laughed so hard when Plebus showed up at the dice.

More interested in this than regular-ass Sims 3.

Very enjoyable game.  More quest oriented compared to other Sims titles but still quite enjoyable.

The sound of Simlish makes me want to punch someone.

text adventure/sims. Too much text for a modern videogame.

This actually looks kinda fun. I often prefer reading to listening to terrible voice acting. It's much faster and I remember what I read much better when I'm not distracted by someone's awful performance. Or Simlish.

Ive been playing through this for a few days now, its pretty awesome.
 
My only real gripe is that I want to focus on my main character and level him up and be awesome, but the quests force me to play as other people too, which isn't really my sims playstyle.
 
Also, sometimes you can't complete an objective because of random reasons. There was a few times I found my female sim unable to go do some objective for a really long time (and thus lose a bunch of score) because she got pregnant and was forced to stay at home.  Her fatal flaw demanded she fuck a lot =/

I want you to SLEEEEEEEEEEEEEP! 
 
Always fun with MST3K references.

There are many words that are used this way. It means something specific, but is used as a generalization of traits of the true definition. 
 

ante-

1. Prior to in time.
2.   In front of in space.   

diluvian- 

1.      Of, relating to, or produced by a flood

 
Just because a word is USED in a particular way, that does not mean it is a strict definition.

Actually, considering that, in our modern times, we use the phrase "get medieval", the phrase "get antediluvian" would be an appropriate play-on-words, considering they are in Medieval times. What is the "medieval times" of Medieval times? Antedivulian. "

in which  period in history before the biblical flood did Noah build an arch,and what did it lead to? "

I gotta admit, when the fat, blonde king with a perm somehow was lost and they had to go with the default guy I completely lost interest.

When you play a game first and then watch the guys play it, it's horribly painful waiting for them to figure out stuff.  Forget the fact I was in the same boat, it's just brutal to see it when you know the answer and the video doesn't understand English.

That ain't a fatal flaw bud...Unless she ain't on the pill.

 @outerabiz:  The medieval period is from 400 to 1400 AD                          The  antediluvian is before 5000 BC.                           Better stick to shooting guys in the head on your XBOX and leave the thinking to other people. "

" @outerabiz: Noah never built an "arch", I think you're confusing him with the romans, they certainly popularized the arch in their architecture. He did build an ark though. In the story, at least. ;) "

that was definitely a disappointing moment in the quick look, the other problem i had was how freaking boring this is to watch, the sims suffers the same problem its definitely a playing game.   "

I was curious about this game, wanted to get my medieval city building on 
 
This QL has shown me that i do not want this game

hmmm looks kind of intriguing..

I have a hard time figuring out why people like The Sims proper, but this thing just seems ass.

they should put the original king of comedy on the cover for this, now that would be some serious marketing.

this is like a feaver dream
