Yes, some of you may have long since consigned The Sims to gaming history but the franchise is still going strong. One of the latest iterations sees the life-simulation gameplay transported to a fantasy style medieval realm. Apparently there will be questing and other RPG-lite elements. Yes, it's a long way from the parties and pets of 2003 (ish). Has The Sims gone hardcore? Can we expect - say - Sims Space Marine in the future? Probably not, but personally I think Medieval looks like an interesting evolutionary step for the series. What do you think?
