The game got too childish, safe, Reliant on mods, and limited for my taste. I like games like Animal Crossing from time to time. But I expected more from this title after playing for so many years. It lost me. It's like an old friend I think of from time to time. I wonder what's new and how things are going, but I have no…

Hehe. I see nothing's changed. The sims 4 is still playing the player.
-
^^This. Think you said it all. Was just thinking that while playing S3 earlier. For example, sims 4 has no tedious features like ‘make bed.’ In theory, leaving out an option so simple would leave more time for other things to do with sims. In practice, there are not enough things for sims to do. This makes a feature deemed…

I personally like having a zodiac simply because one exists in RL. Though, to me, it doesn't mean anything. Not even in RL. What I don't like about Sims 1 or 2 was already mentioned. It was difficult to make a sim that was a Virgo without having all Virgos seem alike. In RL, two people of the same sign can be very…

Ambitions. Self-employed options allowed me to create my own active careers. I select the self-employed option I want for my sim and send them to a building or office I designed for them to actively work at. I decide their days and hours of work. I decide what they do/don’t do at work. I decide where they work. I can…

I agree wholeheartedly. You left out one other aspect of cutting corners though. Being one who’s worked for many publicly owned companies: There is another danger. Companies promise high numbers within an agreed upon time. They can’t always live up to their promises. They lose shares due to their inability to meet the…

This gave me another idea. Just thought of it now. Would it be difficult to separate doors and frames? It would cut down on re-creating separate arches and doors that match, as well as cut down on duplicate items. We could place the frame (arch) of our choosing and add a door or leave it open. I wonder if this is also a…

Lol. Yeah. I remember the ET fiasco. I do feel it’s happening again. Just another one of life’s cycles, I suppose. Thanks for your time. I forgot you mentioned you were tired. Hope you feel better soon.
-
I feel after all this time (since sims 1), separate shutters and windows (that all match with each other) should be a basic staple. It would offer so much more diversity and creativity from the player. It would also cut down on having to reinvent the wheel each time they come out with build items. They could focus on…

Im curious about the pros. You gave it a 3/4 and only mentioned the cons. Your sentiment mirrors my own so I’m intrigued. What do you like about Sims 4 to give it that score? Regarding the bolded area: I don’t understand the mentality of decreasing quality to maximize profits. I feel you’re correct, but this is the pattern…
-
I gave it a 1. I was thinking of giving it a higher score until I weighed the pros and cons. Apartments can’t be saved. Con Timing issues. Con Dropped queues. Con Sims ignoring commands. Con Still broken active careers. Con Broken multitasking (not real multitasking). Con Excessive need to socialize. Con AI still unabe to…

Has anyone confirmed if secuROM is in the Origin installs? I would go that route if I knew for sure. I’m lucky I can still use my discs and use the third party patch to stop the version of SecuROM that came with BV from installing. I would happily use the Origin option if I knew it wouldn’t install. I was one of those…

I’ve never been a fan of jumping back in time in S2 even though it’s my favourite game. I feel Uni was a great fix to that issue. Unfortunately, it only exists in ‘uni’ worlds. It was one of many things I wanted to see improvements on. BUT, at least in sims 2 and 3, children could meet other CHILDREN at school and by…

Cars: life simulation. So yes. Colour wheel: customization. Doesn’t take 10 minutes to load for me. Takes seconds. So yes. Supernatural: only want witches and aliens. Don’t care about the rest Preteens: God. No. We have enough. Just flesh out the teens and make them unique for Pete’s sake. We don’t need another redundant…

LOl. All this ridiculous talk about imagination reminds me why a cardboard box is worth more than this game.

Not all Sims players are in the US. Out where I am. I was enjoying -40 Celsius weather with windchills to make you wear at least three layers. Thank god it warmed up! No one wears short pants here. Not even in the summer. We wear shorts, long pants, or capris. Anything in between capris and pants is called flood pants.…

Not for Sims 4. No. For a good game though? Yes.
-
I see it as a case of being careful what you wish for. I've seen many posts in the past asking for sims to have more AI and more autonomous actions. I never agreed back then, and I still don't. I felt having too much would cause the exact problems it causes. It takes the game out of the player's hands and causes…

In sims 1, there is a sign you can put in the lots that says ‘no pets allowed.’ It was a great solution for those who didn’t want pets on their lots. Something as simple as that should be a fair workaround for everyone.
-
*sigh* This isn't even about open world. I loved S2 for the ability to create worlds and build too. No open world there. Glad to see your still around though. I should really post some pics of my new world in S3. I have so much fun playing in it and find it so smooth compared to anything Maxis ever made. :/ Then again, my…
-
Cars and bycicles worked in S2 and 3 because there was a true road system. S4 doesn’t have one. I do love your ideas though. I hope this team can prove me wrong. Maybe they can build one world solely for the use of cars and bycicles.
-
I’m surprised there aren’t more responses to this. It was one of the many things that annoyed me last time I played. That and them not cancelling the actions I cancelled.

My sims have never automatically awakened when the baby cries unless they’re in the same room as the sleeping sim. Never once in all my simming through the iterations has it been a problem. Also never had an issue with babies on floors. Click on the crib. The option to put them back is there. I lock the doors until the…

So it almost seems like saying ‘simmers’ are casual gamers is also an unpopular opinion. I used to play all sorts of games. Mostly FPS and RPG. Never enjoyed online games though. After I found the sims, I hardly play any other games because The Sims series replaces all I wanted out of gaming. It took my imagination to a…
-
I thought they also said they can’t make changes to existing worlds without breaking saves. I wonder which it is. Can they add weather to all worlds without damaging the existing structure? Or is it merely theoretical? From what I understand: 1. They can make changes to all worlds And 2. They can’t make changes to all…

Weird. I played S2 on a laptop through its entire lifespan. S3 can also be played on a laptop if you lower the settings. Kind of like laptop mode. Guess someone shoulda told me I couldn’t play the games on laptops. Otherwise, I never woulda known. Poor excuse is poor.
-
1. They said they can 2. It will break the saves Think about that for a good, hard, second. What does that mean? Really mean? To me, that means a poorly designed and poorly thought out engine that can’t properly handle future content. Just my 2 cents. :/ They say hind-sight is 20-20. Shoulda, coulda, woulda. At least that…
