i am not much into sims, my wife is on the other hand, so i am keeping an eye out on this game, so i ma not sure if my opinion warrants any credit.

i am not sure about difficulty settings, but i think i remember something from the videos about the gameplay being adjusted to the creatures and worlds you create. take humans, for example, who have to wear suits in outer spac--otherwise we die. i am not sure how indepth the game will be, but i can imagine that you will decide what sort of organs your creature will have, and even characteristics such as herbivore, carnivore or omnivore. this all determines what sort of life your creaure will have and even how it will evolve. this includes lifespan, ability to reproduce, enemies, social structure, habitat, etc, etc.

to me, this only makes sense if the game is as big as mr. wright says it is...and i hope it proves to be a success, for my wife's sake. :)
