    Anyone else loading 5-6 planet systems and not able to even play due to killer lag?

    Or am I just not running a good enough toaster?

    probably you, i can get away with 5-6 medium sized planets or 2, sometimes 3 super planets (1000+ radius) but in the end it almost always crashes in 1-2 hours =P but i can maintain a good speed unless the stress gets over like 20,000 units

    Wouldn't a playing simulator be, like, the actual game?

    hmm no, it would be a game that simulates you playing the game.
    I don't think that is a fun genre.

    But you're still controlling a goat, not a player controlling a goat.

    They need to make a hardcore mode for GTA V in which you need to get food and water, sleep, gas for your car, and you get in trouble if a cop catches you not following driving laws, or you get speeding tickets, parking tickets, etc...

    Life Simulator, with some crime thrown in. :)
