MP: exactly
MP: but it seems like Sims due to the fact that you're able to..um..manipulate the enviroment?
MP: like how you're able to move furniture or buy new ones to place it in the house
MP: i heard that you're able to expand the area of living too
MP: that's about all there is to how Sim-like it is
MP: perhaps it involves puzzles
MP: where you have to manipulate the environment to ensure the next move of your character

AC: That sounds like a very bold, and potentially dangerous, mechanic!
AC: But surely you are, what is the expression, 'pulling on my foot?'
AC: Pardon my skepticism, but it sounds a little far-fetched!

MP: it would seem so
MP: and i too, am not entire sure about the mechanics of this game as of yet
MP: but rest assured that i am most definitely not pulling your leg.
MP: but i suppose skeptism is to be expected
MP: perhaps it's all just a way to attract more people into purchasing the game?
MP: ...
MP: still
MP: doesn't it sound interesting?
MP: it definitely doesn't sound like any ordinary game

AC: And I must admit that video games have not been a passion of mine: I certainly should not question such possibilities without a little more research.
AC: For all I know, there is an entire genre of reality games out there!
AC: Though it does sound rather expensive, all things considered.

MP: oddly enough
MP: it's actually not all that expensive
MP: though you'd think it might cost a bomb
MP: considering how the game allows us to practically bend laws of reality itself
MP: but it seems like it costs almost as much as any other ordinary game
MP: of course, it's not as if the company producing this game needs anymore money to begin with

But I was under the impression that operating at a loss was an act that few companies, no matter how ritzy and glamorous, were willing to put up with.
AC: Especially not for the sake of 'art' or other such tenuous philosophical designations.
AC: What company, exactly, is bankrolling all of this?

AC: And, red as a background color?
AC: I was not aware that they had shuffled their way into the video game market, it seems like a bold step.

MP: the one with the red spoon as a background
MP: and it sure seems like it
MP: i have never heard of a company whose only business is to sell baking goods suddenly turn to producing games.
MP: i would not hope that this game ends up to be about running a bakery
MP: or something silly like that

AC: And if the game does as much as you have advertised, then it would be quite a formidable game indeed! Capable of creating appetizing pastries and the like out of thin air!
AC: I would certainly consider it as well worth the price if such were the case.

MP: that we create out of thin air

AC: Perhaps the narrative of the game is all one big cosmic joke.
AC: Like at the circus, where there are pies being thrown into faces for the sake of entertainment.

MP: perhaps.
MP: i highly doubt this has anything with throwing pies though
MP: at least i hope not
MP: anyway
MP: might this just interest you into getting the game?

AC: Such experiences tend to be my favorite part of life!
AC: I suspect I shall make the purchase, yes.
AC: Maybe even recommend it to some of our mutual friends. ;3

MP: that sounds like a splendid idea! : )
MP: perhaps we could split into groups
MP: a little friendly competition, if you will
MP: to see who can win the game first?
MP: just a little suggestion, i guess
MP: to spice the game up ;>
MP: what do you think?
