Designer of The Sims Will Wright appeared on Twitch today to talk about his next life sim, Proxi, and share a few memories about The Sims. During the stream on BreakthroughT1D's channel, Wright explained why he was building his next life sim using the real memories of the people playing it, and shared some of his memories about the iconic simulation games he made at Maxis.
One topic that came up is an element of The Sims that is still a bit perplexing, even for those who have been playing for years: how is it that everyday activities like washing dishes and using the bathroom—typically boring affairs in real life—are somehow fun when you do them inside The Sims?
