I am very sad that he left maxis. I love sims for their inspiration. hopefully one day everything will come back to life
I appreciate the hopefulness but the gold days are over 😞
He is so smart. I wish i had a fraction of his intelligence. Truly an idol of mine.
SeadraSauce you have intelligence in you, just work on yourself to open and manifest that in you.. ✨
WILL
Omg yes !!
Need to meet Will Wright. The creator of the Sims has got to be the richest man alive. Thank you for making my life more exciting. Idk what id do without the Sims! ""Ribson newby!"
Surprisingly enough, his net worth is only $20m. Not sure why, but thats what google says :/
Maybe because he set out to make games, and not to be rich. Also, game development is pretty uncertain.
@@kerezymaii Probably because EA bought out Maxis studio, so EA makes the majority of the money.
@@NXu-tv7gl Probably. It's not a bad thing, I was just correcting the OP. It's still a lot of money and his accomplishments are impressive. He made one of my favourite games ;)
@@NXu-tv7gl by bought out you mean basically stole
I wish I could meet with Will to discuss computer sciences and simulation design.
Right
It would be neat if he started making games again.
Will still has a small presence in the world of games. He's been a chairman for Linden Lab (Second Life) since 2011. For the most part, he pursues whatever interests him at any given time. He's not strictly a game developer. At the moment, he's working on an augmented reality app called Proxi. It's an artificial intelligence built off of the user's memories and life experiences.
He's working on a mobile game called Proxi rn :)
i wish he would make games again he was talented
GET IN THE BOX, WILL
the sims1: the best soundtrack of my fucking life
13:11 there you go
So this is where the rabbit hole ends...all praise the creator🤲
I still want an Answer from him why they did that incredible scary Warning Theme in The Sims haha
14:58 That's something I will quote in the future: The Sims failed an internal focus group test. Amazing. :)
I wish he would revive the simcity game man. they fucked up on the last one and he's the one who can do it again I believe!
17:30 take that no mans sky
Step into the car of me mind Justin
danitiwa take a look at my beautiful sporeeees
My freaking idol
How do I write to the company and ask them to make more games
yeeeeeeeeeeeeeeessssssssssssssssss
6:51 Is it just me or is that footage of SimCity 4 different from the final product? Different logo, different graphics, etc.
And on 7:50 -- Different UI. This is definitely some form of beta for SC4.
ToonElectrocrash yeah, when it was still tentatively called "SimCity 4000"
mah mahrvelos spooooooorssss
NOTHING BUT LOVE AND RESPECT FOR MY PRESIDENT
Cam he make sims 4 for free in mobile?
Sims 4 won’t run on mobile and he’s not part of it anyways. The last Sims game he did was The Sims 2.
tldr; no he can’t
I need to ask them some questions, why did they name it The Sims though?
Who came here from Monster Factory?
GET IN YOUR BOX, WILL!
me beuatiful spoooohs
I want to belive.
This is the man
This is our God. He created the Paradox.
@@_PLANK_ What do you mean?
@@guilhermekfwst This man is not a man. This man is God. Humanity has the common knowledge the first human simulation worldwide spread was The Sims. Once humanity developed this knowledge we cannot return back to the past and make everyone forget The Sims. By knowing how The Sims worked as a simulation, humanity developed this common knowledge that WE, as humans, could be living on a simulation. This created a paradox. Basically, Will Wright is a God because he created The Sims, and by creating The Sims, he put into everyone's mind the thought of humans living on an already created simulation. Thus, Will Wright started the Paradox. Will Wright created everything.
Make it free on apple phones and iPads
Dude on the right is nervous AF.
GET BACK IN THE BOX WILL
What is ole Will up too these days? is he retired?
Sorry for the extremely late response, but Will is currently working on an augmented reality app called Proxi. He's also a chairman for Linden Lab, the creators of Second Life. As for traditional game development, he's not currently working on anything.
Doctor Evilface I appreciate the late response
@@itheckinwindy what about now?
@@watermyplants6089 Still working on Proxi. It's in closed beta right now.
@@itheckinwindy thanks for a response earlier than 2 years. Glad he's still at it
He ticked so many traits of neurodivergent, endless obsession with things, highly observant, like patterns, using hands and mental image(he looked away from interviewer and making hand signs to himself to keep track of what he was talking). Speak too fast without realizing, going off in tangents often. Oh well, lol. No wonder he made games that almost all neurodivergent people love.
He did a horrible job this game is so stupid
Fuck You, you’re an idiot.
Shut up u little fucked up twat he did amazing look at the game now bitch suck yourself
Niya Diamond omg what
You wish you were as talented and rich as him
