InZOIis considered to be one of the only games that’s come along in recent times that might be able to challengeThe Sims 4for its life simulation game throne. While there are certainlydifferences betweenThe Sims 4andInZOIin terms of gameplay and content, long-time fans ofThe Simsseem to be eager to see a competitor.
Now, a Reddit user going by whyareyougee has shared their attempt at creating the same character in bothInZOIandThe Sims 4. Whyareyougee split the images in half, so that others can see exactly how they measure up. While the attempt to create the same person is obvious, the differences are tremendous, and they’re not because of a shortcoming on the OP’s part. While theSim and the Zoifeature the same general facial structure, there are massive differences between the two. The Sim has less detailed textures overall, with an especially fuzzy-looking tattoo on his neck standing out. The Sim has considerably less detailed hair, especially noticeable around the hairline and the eyebrows, and the Sim’s eyes look far more cartoony than the Zoi’s. Overall, the difference in lighting is dramatic, with natural shadows being cast on the Zoi, while they’re largely absent on the Sim.
Life Simulation Game Fans React To Comparison Images
Players of both games have quickly shared their opinions, with many expressing how impressed they are withInZOI’s graphicsin general. Some have pointed out that a graphical disparity is to be expected considering thatThe Sims 4originally launched over a decade prior toInZOI. Others have also noted thatThe Sims 4is intended to have a stylized, cartoonish appearance, and that there’s room for both types of esthetics.
While manySimsfans are already checking outInZOI, one fan pointed out a potential hiccup that could keep players inThe Sims 4: insufficient hardware specs. A player lamented that their older computer simply can’t handleInZOI, but thatThe Sims 4still plays well on their system. SinceInZOIwas designed to take full advantage of the power of modern GPUs, this makes a lot of sense, and may mean that the game sees a gradual uptick in players as hardware continues to improve over the years. However, withThe Sims 4still going strong with new DLCdropping regularly, it remains to be seen if the king of life sims can truly be toppled.
