Clock that moves and grandfather's clock that swings

Sims 4 looks so unfinished with all the clocks frozen in time. Clocks aren't supposed to stop, they are supposed to move with time!
Like this Fan made mod for the existing grandfather's clock that actually moves!
Maxis, please work your lazy 🐸🐸🐸🐸 like now! now Maxis work!!!! fix all your laziness bit by bit.

too difficult and expensive.
and was the best decision.
and things like that just choose the best excuse for you.
I wouldn't say that making clocks move is one of their biggest priorities now...
Of course it isn't and it shouldn't be. But it is an example of corners that were cut that weren't cut in previous games.
Sims 2 blows me away with the animations. Given that that was supposed to be one of Sims 4 selling points, I'm not sure why they lowered the bar as much as they did and then expected people to not notice.
It's was little things that the developer's did to the games back then that made it feel more real.
Sims 2 , blinking Christmas lights, wow
OP thank you SOOoooo Much for the link, this will make the Sims for me a little more alive.
no love for Sims4. Thankfully they gave us free updates online. Hopefully they'll fix this also. (I still have hope Maxis, so do something!)
In Sims2, there's even alarm clock where you can set timer on it. 🐸🐸🐸🐸 why there's no these anymore!? In a Maxis-style excuse: "we want to introduce a more modern electronics, Sims would use buzzer so you can't hear the alarm, and Sims would also use their mobile phone to wake them up", what da fook!?
Clocks need to work - no question. Further, Sims need to interact with them - such as glancing at it and getting a worried look when late for school/work/etc. And, lots of other stuff as well.
I stand ready with a torch, pitchfork and snarling dog to make this happen

I think that's a nice detail. Say you can view at clocks, and sims would react differently.
Oh @SimGuruRachel please command your legions to enable clock movement, chimes, alarm, and all the details needed to make Sims4 looks more and more like a game made with love
You could even bolt more traits into that as well - maybe something like 'Punctual'. This could cause a sim to get a negative moodlet and could add some interactions like 'Get moving', etc. that, in turn, could give negative moodlets to other sims. Time would make traits like patient/impatient viable.
Indeed, working clocks would add a whole level of gameplay as it would no longer be just the lower level needs that make use of the time mechanic. Time mechanics would then be part of the motivation of the sims- Ambitious sims getting positive moodlets for being early to work etc (to detriment of family), for example.
