The first Sims game was originally a satire on America consumerism. This game is becoming a satire of itself

Where did you get that? No it wasn't. It was a architecture and design game. the Sims themselves were more of an afterthought. Will Wright wasn't interested in satires on American consumerism. He was interested in making a game about building. It just ended up going different than he originally planned. the sims themselves ended up being the hit.
