4Players.de interviews Lyndsay Pearson about The Sims 3 World Adventures Another interview (and this time it’s in English) with Lyndsay Pearson about the latest expansion, World Adventures for The Sims 3.* Special thanks to SimWay for pointing it out! 4Players: Will the players finally be able to watch their Sims at work*- maybe even incorporated with some mini-games like in the console versions of The Sims 2? We’ve been asked a lot about watching Sims go to work and there’s certainly something interesting in there. The first expansion pack focuses on expanding the new gameplay experiences introduced in The Sims 3 such as opportunities, collecting, discovery, and exploration. We think letting your Sims do something really daring and exotic is a natural complement to their more normal lives back home. 4Players: Will there be a point where we can expect a storyline in The Sims that you can (respectively have to) follow? The late Sims Stories seemed to be on a good way*- with all their limitations. But now with the enhanced world of The Sims 3 it seems to be worth thinking about getting some of those elements of “pre-scripted drama” as an additional tool into The Sims 3. Lyndsay Pearson: World Adventures adds an element to our fiction that is very close to following a storyline. Your Sim could be part of an adventure that may require him to help thwart an evil mega-corporation that is stealing priceless treasures or to help revive a famous historic landmark. The Sims 3 is still focused on giving players tools to tell their own stories and we will continue to offer help and nudges along the way. 4Players.de – interview with Sims 3 World Adventures producer Lyndsay Pearson
