inZOI's Director Wants to Talk Crime & Punishment! 💥

[@princessisabelcastilloflor8912]

I think crime should be a part of Inzoi because crime is a part of real life, so players should have the options to steal cars, rob banks or join the mafia or a criminal gang if they choose a criminal lifestyle, however, instead of being able to do whatever you want like in GTA, there should be like consequences for choosing which life you want. For example, if you get caught and end up in jail, your zoi gets a record, and you lose your chance at getting certain jobs, and other zois are afraid of your character.

[@SugarZoi]

Good ideas for consequences!

[@iAvrilFan1]

A crime for not paying bills, for violence in public (like if you slap another Zoi), a crime for parents if their Zoi children are walking outside during night time

[@zollsa1]

If you go to jail, there should be a room you sit in like a jail and there could be simple interactions like sleep, sing, find a harmonica. Chat to another person in the jail.

[@SugarZoi]

Watching them play a harmonica in a jail cell while lookin really sad would be hilarious. 😂

[@emreunalir]

I don't want to be perceived as a marginal character, but why can't we be a thief or a murderer when we can be a police officer or a detective? Finding out that a zoi you don't know well enough is actually a kleptomaniac after getting married, and being disappointed. Sending a zoi who goes crazy to the clinic, and more. I support the idea that it should be added as a dlc, even if it's not in the main game.

[@SugarZoi]

I get what you mean but I honestly don’t think they will add murder since they are trying to keep the game rating friendly enough but I’m sure someone will create a mod for it. The idea of a zoi losing their mind and having to go to a clinic is interesting! I hope they do allow us to use the hospital in the future for illnesses or check-ups.

[@libera7161]

​@@SugarZoi I think such a dlc that is for adults could be a good idea. Personally I don't want violence. 😅 but if people want that it should come in an dlc not in the game itself not everyone wants it but some people do.

[@Naos333]

Don't forget mods will be huge for this game

[@mbishop2050]

Those could be for either current or future career paths, from criminal to medical to private investigator, vehicle mechanic/garage owner. The garage owner and private investigator could be in a future DLC for owning your own business.

[@GlitchDaddy]

Yes this give us full autonomy for good and evil.

[@emreunalir]

I think a small bar added to the control city status panel would solve the whole problem. One end of the bar could be a rosy life where everyone is happy and no crime is committed, the middle of the bar could be a crime rate balanced by Inzoi, and the other end of the bar could be the addition of extreme crimes such as murder. Sometimes in a story, a zoi dying of illness or murder/or committing murder adds depth to the story. I am a supporter of the fact that this game, which is so philosophical, should also include the bad sides of life. I can't wait to see a game where every zoi we don't raise correctly has realistic illnesses and personalities such as obsessive compulsive, prone to theft, and temper tantrums.

[@SugarZoi]

It definitely adds depth to storylines.

[@cryingwatercolours]

it would be nice if you could see it to randomly adjust over the years i believe they have that for individual things though

[@TrickLabStudio]

I feel like if "crime" and such were to come maybe make an expansion explicitly or Option before the game starts for like 17+yrs or something where its more Optional for those who are Adults and want the game to Deeper into Dark IRL things

[@SugarZoi]

I’m not sure if they would have different ratings for different expansion packs. I think typically games start with a certain rating and stick to it. They will probably keep the crime light and if we want heavier topics, we could rely on mods. You can completely eliminate crime from your game by setting the crime rate in city controls all the way down.

[@zachbohemian]

as long as its more mature than the sims, sims is childs play

[@alescia7806]

they should add npc shoplifters that you can catch/chase at work

[@SugarZoi]

Maybe with CPC’s, they will steal if it’s in their character to do so. It’s going to be interesting!

[@redacted2458]

As a fan of Law Enforcement roleplay it would be brilliant if becoming a cop was a career option, starting as a beat cop and working your way up the ranks by investigating crimes that happen throughout the world in real time, basically everything a police officer can do in real life, but of course for all of that to happen this needs to be set in a world where anything can indeed happen, including crimes such as: burglary, Robbery, shoplifting, assault, aggravated assault, drunken disorderly, murder, attempted murder, possessing narcotics, drunk driving, speeding, dangerous driving, disturbing the peace, Much more but i don't want to make the list and this comment too long

[@redacted2458]

Bear in mind that i typed the comment above before getting into the video so i may have already mentioned things that have already been addressed in the video

[@SugarZoi]

I think we can still have a LE career path with crimes that don’t include murder or narcotics. I don’t think they will devs are going to put that in the game as it would drastically change the rating but also not fit the direction the creator wanted for this game. Although I wouldn’t mind the implied murder scene like how the detective career path in the Sims currently is (with the chalk outline).

[@redacted2458]

@@SugarZoi i do agree, the possible murder crime scene scenario for a detective career would be very good, either way it's going to be a great game no matter what even if many of the features i mentioned don't make the cut, i just hope that (for people who would like to play this game with those added features if and when they ever become available) there'll be mods or maybe even a mod browser for console users Edit: thanks for the like and for commenting btw, how rude of me

[@sotosj9]

Can you ask the developers to include being able to throw parties at your home. Thanks

[@ItalyLC]

And events..weddings, baby showers, bachelor/ bachelorette parties..bridal showers, actual real life stuff that we have in our sims game (though modders made those events) but sims made it possible for them to do so.

[@Rain0and0Thunder]

I can't go onto discord but I had what I think is a good crime and punishment idea. Like, let us actually play our Zoi's in prison, maybe have a few tasks we have to complete or a new skill we have to learn in prison, and have it where we have a cell mate we can interact with and maybe become pen pals with later on. Maybe to get out of prison we have so many tasks we have to complete first XD

[@DailyEdits-Love]

Worst crime in InZoi: mistreating a cat 🐈

[@SugarZoi]

Now that’s definitely a possibility! Also a crime in my book. 😸

[@lyricusx2900]

We need a realistic game.

[@sumireravenclaw8034]

A detective type job like how the sims 4 expansion did it would be amazing.

[@Nite0wlz]

Jail system. Yes! doesn't need to be crazy, but there needs to be consequences in the game.

[@nsbm159]

More like a prison system but I think that should come with an DLC so that we can be lawyers and prosecutors and defend or send people to jail.. even a judge that would bring so much more realism to the game

[@Cibbic]

​@@nsbm159doubt they would ever go that deep

[@theoriginalanimeker]

Arson would be great in this game, also I agree that the crime slider that is already included is a great addition. Me as a player I am just chaotic and would love a GTA style mod with violence, murder & hit & runs to this game. Lot's of people play GTA like it's a life sim already, honestly with what Inzoi promises already if it can be modded as vastly and well as Skyrim, it would be the perfect game for ,e/.

[@Ir_Senn]

Oh my goodness, i suggested putting caught zois in jail and making them unplayable for a few days in discord, i feel giddy that my comment was read and considered, the level of interaction between developers and players is unheard of ❤. I do think murder would be a bit much for my taste, but if they add it, id be ok with it too as long as it can be toggled on and off or controlled with slider. I've also thought it would be awesome (maybe at so.e point down the road) to add more of a medical element element to the game : have zois who are terminally ill for example, or zois whove been in a car accident and didnt die but lost an arm or a leg and have to wear a prosthetic arm or be in a wheel chair. I understand it can be triggering to some so im totally ok if it never comes to fruition, but would be kinda cool and can also be controlled with a slider or a toggle. Honestly, id be ok with anything they release at this point, im a very easy to please type of player.😂 Oh and for the number 1 crime, given a fire fighter career, my guess is arson 🙃. I just wish we could fadt forward to march 28 already 😅

[@KarinaCermakova-c7n]

I also said this to to put then in jail for like 3 inzoi days but... i was hoping it wouldnt be a rabbit hole and wile you are in there you have to do like chores cleaning cooking gardering etc.. soo cool how the team is listening to us 🎉❤

isn't that considered murder?

[@keithconlon4374]

It would be interesting to have bit of NCIS franchise tv shows, Criminal Minds, Bones, Hawaii Five-0 reboot, FBI tv shows and CSI: Crime Scene Investigation tv shows with the chases involving combination of foot chases, car chases, gun fights, and Absolver: An open-world game that blends single-player, co-op, and competitive multiplayer. It also allows players to customize their movesets. Sifu: A game with linear levels that focuses on hand-to-hand combat. Street Fighter II: A fighting game that popularized combos and other genre conventions. Sonic Battle: A game that allows players to customize their movesets. Nioh 2: A game with melee combat. Metal Gear Rising: Revengeance: A game with melee combat. Bayonetta 2: A game with melee combat. Dragon's Dogma II: A game with melee combat. Batman: Arkham Knight: A game with melee combat. Yakuza 0: A game with melee combat. Darksiders: A game with melee combat sort of hand to hand combat

[@SugarZoi]

I don’t think they’ll add that level of fight mechanics/skills but love the crime fighting shows and would love elements like that in the game!

[@TrickLabStudio]

in terms of "helicopter" chase though it would be cool if they added it but like you come across it or shows on the breaking news channel but it would be amazing to be driving and see a police chase to by.

[@rozz_ie]

I was looking for an inzoi video to watch before bed and disappointed cause I already knew everything! just to see u posted this 🎉

[@SugarZoi]

Good one!

[@LordZokuxDraco]

Is there gonna be a mode where we can play online with other ppl or play with friends?

[@SugarZoi]

So far it’s a single player game but they said they are considering multiplayer features such as inviting a friend to your city or house.

[@100madmic]

hacking, probably not paying bills, stealing mail or boxes at neighbors houses I know some people doin't want rabbit hole jail But yea think some things should be tickets first but if they keep doing it then jail time.

[@fake_kpop_lyrics3439]

I rarely commited crime in the sims so I wouldn't care if it wasn't included at all. But with mods in mind it may be nice if the basic functionality of policing is there so there won't be to many conflicts in how multiple mods handle crime. Aside from that I do think the game would be a great base for a noir detective mod or a vampire the masquerade mod. Settings where risk is high, the world is bleak and personal relationships matter a lot. In such an overhaul either with DLC or mods crimes may not just fit the vibes but may also be a necessary choice to succeed. (Think breaking in to find evidence, or blackmailing for information, or even stealing food while you are on the run and starving)

[@SugarZoi]

Cool ideas!

[@anomalytenacious]

I get where he is coming from, one issue is if he puts too much crime into the game, influencers will only highlight only the crime parts and that will be what the game gets popular for and that will attract a certain type of player base which could cause Inzoi to lose its original vision. I think consequences in the game are important and I don't think crime has to be so realistic. Take a page from sims 4 criminal career and be a bit playful about the crime. What if I could steal white business shirts, my employees start coming into work with crazy colored shirts complaining that someone has been stealing all the white business shirts. Its a crime, but ridiculous at the same time.

[@SugarZoi]

I love that example of a crime! For a game like this, I do prefer a little bit of whimsy and comedy to lighten the dark themes. 😊

[@themeekkat]

Maybe scamming would be worse? I think if you manage to get away, there should be a response to it. Maybe more police officers in certain areas or more cameras. Maybe traps of some kind like a man trap that keeps you in place if you don't pass a check. Maybe certain stores close down if it happens too often.

[@ElisielAskailDark]

I think silly whimsical crimes like slap silly from sims, or using magic (in the future) or abilities that do negative effects should result in going to jail, but jail and police work shouldn't be rabbit holed.

[@rhfcxv]

Hi, I would like to ask about the ai responses in zoi chats. Is it gonna be affecting the game and yk act accordingly to it?

[@KazoiStudio]

It'll be hilarious if they use Australian law like bail. 😅

[@ItalyLC]

I mean I don’t really care for crime, but for the police/detective career, I’m pretty sure stuff has to happen or they can do like sims and have it where we are updated on crime while at work, but it’s not actually happening in our game. As far as punishments..I liked it when a teenager was out pass curfew time and the police had to bring them home ( sims 3), burglary, tagging property, or fighting in public could be a few..not too extreme, but something.

[@brianasylve6507]

I know I hate the idea of murder in Inzoi when they do have plenty of games that that explore. And I agree. We already have all that in real life. Maybe I’m still shaken by the New Orleans news but it would be sad. But if they do put crimes in, maybe they could be non graphic about it. Some criminal things: arson- if you set a house on fire, you can go to jail for a limited time. Stealing food, shoplifting. It would be something to just steal other things other than money. You can pay a fine or go to jail for a limited time if you get caught. Burglary- creeping into zois houses and stealing a tv or what ever they have in there. (Maybe stealing the gifts on other peoples porches. The ones that your friends gift to you. And that can open a new chat box. Your friend would say something like did you like the gift- You say what gift- they say they sent it to you- you assume that someone stole the gift and your both upset about it. It would be cool to have the option to call the police about a stolen package. Maybe, also if your a part of a mad gang (almost like the mafia) that can ruin your reputation. All these ideas can have a certain amount of days in jail depending on the level of the crime. And I would love a detective job. Where you can find missing items. Discover illegal gatherings. Finding missing people. They would put up papers on what’s missing. And you can customize what’s on the paper if like your pet went somewhere and you didn’t know where they went. )Asking a round finding information on where they were last seen and gather clues to find them.

[@donnabates-holmes8120]

I feel you there I think if they want right out super crimes that they should make a mod for it there's some of us we don't mind the stealing part and being put in jail for stealing or maybe even a little fist fight out side where people see another zoid hurting another zoid be put into pain in jail for a while but other than that no I don't want a lot of bloody violence if I do I can go get a game that has that but I don't want that type of game so I hope that they just wait for somebody to make a mod for that type of action if somebody else wants it

Add a cop career and autonomy to be good cop or bad cop and ripple that through the game forget ratings kids parents buy 18+ games have been for years. In general the gamin scene needs a good cop game you could ad that undertone.

I've been waiting to see sims4 get there and let us meet strangers and make friends and have fun for real! But never happened... so I'm so hopeful inzoi is going to be online game! People always say i should try second life or imvu if i like such a game! but they aren't life simulation game ! They are just like date app to meet others and talk! That's all!

l want a cop car to come and arrest people and l don’t think zols should have and option for being sentenced

[@mbishop2050]

I am guessing of course, but I will say cat theft or abuse is the highest crime in inZOI. Just an opinion, but Blackmail is not a nonviolent crime as the blackmailer is normally done away with by their victims and in other cases which fortunately are rarer, even if they do not seem to be, the victim does away with themselves sadly. If violence is out then most crimes will become theft only, even though that is a wide category. Your last video had embezzlement due to the bug turned perk of stealing "Mew" currency. Outside of embezzlement most corporations tend to deal with matters internally or even hire outsiders to deal with the problem so law enforcement would not normally become involved. Shoplifting, pickpocket, or even vehicle theft be it bicycles, scooters or full-sized vehicles would be a good option for the Detective career since the player could look at video footage, either read statements officers have taken or interview witnesses and then gather whatever evidence it needed to arrest the ZOI in question. There is also drink and driving, or public disturbances such at festivals or evening attractions. Counterfeit items or "Mew" could also be a good path for a Detective. Since there is a Game Programmer then hacking would be both for criminals and law enforcement paths. That is all I can think of offhand and your burglary with the alarm and option to try and capture the criminal is a great option for the game.
