Is Sims Medieval an RPG or Simulation?

Answer 1

I'll say its both since it is a simulation game, yet you can play a role so its a role playing game

Answer 2

Simulation?

It's an RPG with all that quests and stuffs. Most of the traditional Sims formula isn't even present so it isn't a simulation anymore.

Answer 3

It's both, the sims has always been simulation, but now with Medieval they introduced RPG features such as quests and different interactions between your sims, however it can get a little repetitive over the time, as with any Sims game.

Answer 4

I'd say simulation since the character you play is essentially yourself projected into the Sim-verse. There's no character history beyond what you create, so it's safe to say that your character didn't exist until you created it.

The new features are very RPG-esque, but the game itself is not an RPG by definition since you're not assuming an identity when you play it.

Answer 5

 I'd say it's still simulation, but you can obviously see the RPG elements in this part.

Answer 6

A bit of both. Mostly Sim, with alot of RPG elements in it.

Answer 7

It seems a lot more simulation than RPG. The basic mechanics of every other "The Sims" game are there, moving, talking etc, while I feel like it misses the RPG "feeling" of freedom.
