I have seen lots of 'it's a scam' posts and vids around about this, but I don't know, what do you think?
Many complain about the creators using unedited unreal engine store content, but meh, that's not really evidence as such.
There's a crypto connection which is more of a concern.

The demo video is hilarious, to me anyway.

Why would I hope it could be real? I like the look of the characters, they seem like everyday people rather than cartoons or air-brushed models.
I like the AI generated dialogue.
It looks good.

I also hatez the gunz.

As I said on Reddit, this is more of a GTA clone than a life sim. Sure, GTA can be a form of a life sim but not really.

To my knowledge, they weren't just using uncredited unreal engine content, some of the assets looked identical to GTA5 assets which would be a nono.

Imo, it's best to stay away from crypto related projects. Who knows what kind of software they're sneaking into their software. You could be downloading crypto miners for all you know. Let someone else be a guinea pig before spending your money on projects like these.

If anybody wants a realistic life simulator, try InZoi. So many people fall for online scams these days. I see that because Avast warns me about ongoing threats in the world.

I haven't played GTA so wouldn't have spotted copied content.

I am surprised steam don't have more security checks.

Hi, my name is Pico and I am superexcited to be in Paradise. I can buy businesses, cars and stylish clothes. I can also buy guns to kill the people who don't want to sell me their businesses, cars and stylish clothes. And I can play any influencer I want. And I want so much. So much.
