Sims 3 worlds are much better than in Sims 4. Sims 3 offer exciting worlds where one can walk freely in, do stuff , meet other Sims and explore and Sims 4 doesn't have much of that. I much prefer Sims 3 layout of world than Sims 4. Sims 3, I like the open world concept and also the beauty of the worlds, especially Island Paradise - the worlds come alive and it's easier to interact with all that's going on around you. The worlds in Sims 3 offer lots of possibility to grow and beauty....

1- Sims 3 worlds needed more time for the objects to render even though the game was fully loaded.
2- The worlds had mostly rabbit holes
3- Most venues in Sims 3 were empty
although TS4 worlds are smaller but does not have any of the above problems of TS3 worlds
1- Yes. I just wait a few seconds and start playing but fair enough, this is opinion: you mind, I don't, like you don't mind waiting for loading screens all the time, which is way more than a bit of rendering.
2- No, the worlds have far from 'mostly' rabbitholes (wild guess, 3%?), a lot is open. And most of the rabbitholes are non existent in Sims 2 and 4 (so far): school, city hall, buildings related to careers.
3- That's your computer, not the game.
1- I don't recall having a delay in object rendering in TS3. I also don't have that issue in TS4. So, for me, that point is a wash.
2- Many of TS3's public spaces were rabbit holes but some were not, especially as expansions were released. Personally, I don't mind rabbit holes and felt there was a good balance between rabbit holes and enter-able buildings.
3- In my experience, venues in TS3 were always bustling, as were the public parks. I've found most of the TS4 venues to be pretty much empty. At most, there will be 2-3 Sims, and that's if I'm lucky. The Art Museum is generally the worst. Many many times, my Sim is the only person there, regardless of time of day.

My Mood:
Okay, I'm going to be completley honest here.
1-I am willing to pay that price for the removal of blurry backgrounds and freedom.
2-Yes, but in return I get beaches.
3-Fair enough-night clubs were bad but parks were always full of families on days out as well as the beach.
And in Sims 3 if you had a problem with the original worlds, you can download others of the internet thanks to CAW. In Sims 4, you get what you're given and have to like it or lump it.
Yes.
But yes, Sims 3's worlds are unbeatable due to the high amounts of creativity put into every single one of them.
1. It took me almost 2 hours to figure out the hot key controls and the most frustrating part of that was trying to figure out how to tilt up and down so I could at least look at the sky.
2. I feel like I'm in a goldfish bowl. Even when my view is zoomed out, there is far less to see then there was in TS3. It feels claustrophobic.
3. I got so frustrated trying to figure out how to find and visit the grocery store or other community lots that I just gave up.
4. No patterns or color customizations?? Seriously??
5. Only a few open lots to choose to live on? again SERIOUSLY??
I thought this game was going to be an advancement in the series however it's by far the most boring, frustrating and cartoonishly fake version that I ever had the misfortune to play. I know you might not agree with me and you may love TS4 and thats awesome. I'm just bummed that I can't feel the same love and enthusiasm for it, so I will be back in lonely TS3 where there will never be new content and Maxis has clearly left far behind. (Drama for emphasis)
Not sure if you are just exaggerating or not, but thought I'd throw that out there just in case.
To the OP: Yes. I agree. The neighborhoods in TS4 are ridiculous. I think my sims must all starring in a new version of the Truman Show.
Where are we going, and why am I in this hand basket?!
that link don't work for me >.<
I just tried it and it works for me. So I'm not sure what to tell you. It's a VERY long post so I can't quote it here, besides it would be very off topic. You could try searching the forum using this: "How to fool your game into giving you full clubs" (without the quotes).

Okay if you think the Sims 3 worlds are better that is a good thing for you. I happen to like TS4 better. I enjoy the smaller more populated hoods in TS4. I like the teleporting better than cars because it's actually quicker to teleport and have a loading screen instead of driving or taking a boat to the other side of the world.
Go ahead and keep broadcasting good things about TS3. I enjoyed TS3 before TS4 but I enjoy TS4 more. This subject has been discussed several times already. It's a repeat from last week.
Some people like one version better than others. It's already been debated over and over. There were both good and bad points in all the Sims games. I made up my mind though. I am sticking with TS4.
Looking back, the Open World in 3 was just a lot of barren wide open land, not much ever went on and there wasn't really much to look at the further out you ventured. It was just a lot of emptiness.
But then you look at Sims 4 and the Open World, as small as it is- mainly because it's all sectioned into neighborhoods, is FULL of collectibles and beautiful landscape as well as a few public spots to hang out that don't require a loading screen all over the place.
So, in my opinion, the Open World in 4 is a lot more appealing than 3. Granted you have to sit through a minute or two of loading screen to visit your neighbor but honestly that's a small price to pay for incredibly smooth gameplay and graphics. Just something to ponder.
Like Michelle says, "Duh!"
Sometimes your creativity is limited where you use it most, but you can use those limitations to inspire new forms of creativity you may never have thought of beforehand.
