My baby nephew is only a few months old and he already enjoys to dance. It was funny he was moving his legs and dancing to Springtime for 🐸🐸🐸🐸 from the Producers the other day. So even babies enjoy to dance. My other nephew is 8 now and he enjoys to dance as well especially shaking his 🐸🐸🐸🐸. XD
OMG those videos wow just wow awesome thanks for sharing that first one was the best I had the same thought as one of those judges that asked was he a robot. lol toooooooooo cute OMG it would be sooooooo cute if sims had dancing toddlers.
They listened and gave us toddlers! Thanks Devs your work is appreciated.
@blewis823 I love all those builds. I've always loved your lots, as well as the lots of @petalbot. So much talent! I completely agree that TS4 made building easier, but most of the really talented builders I know never asked for 'easy'. They've asked for content or ways of creating certain things. And they loved using their imagination to create unique looks.
I have thoroughly enjoyed reading this thread. Can't say I agree with everything everyone asked for, but what I think most of us agree on is that we want more interactions and animations for our sim families and friends as well as more group activities for them. I think in general most of us want our sims to imitate everyday life but we want these everyday activities and events to reveal charming and witty surprises.
I also want creative tools back, that allow me to design sims and neighborhoods myself. If possible I'd like the team to stop using cell phones to accomplish basic game mechanics (such as traveling) so that themed neighborhoods would be possible again. You can't recreate a historic period if sims are going to whip out cell phones and taxis are going to automagically zip around the 'hood.
I want control of my game again. I'm ok with optional 'mini games' but I don't want specific lists of (mostly boring) things my sims have to do to accomplish some goal. When there are some objectives, I want options so they can be accomplished in a variety of ways.
I love the Sims and I wish I could love TS4, but it just misses the mark on all of these things in my opinion. I'm not giving up hope quite yet, but if there is a TS5 I hope the vision for it more closely matches the vision articulated in this thread.
The Sims
Where are we going, and why am I in this hand basket?!

Your welcome and yes it would be so adorable to get dancing toddlers in the Sims again.

This article I think explains it the best by Mike Sego.
I like having control of my Sims. I like having it just as fun to control 1 Sim as it is to control 8 Sims. There should be just as many options for a Sim that wants to woohoo around town as there should be for a family of Sims that want to grow up and share memories together. There just needs to be an illusion of the game not having limits and scripted gameplay should not determine the success or failure of a game. I want to be able to see my Sims lives first hand and watching their life events happen rather than text telling me things happen. I want to see the emotions instead of having a game tell me what emotions my Sims are going through. Sims should be a sandbox of endless possibilities and when it doesn't Simmers get bored and run out of things to do in the Sims 4.

I expected something at least like this? I mean the CC is incredible and even though it is Sims 3... music video it is 100 times better than the Yogi Bear and Booboo we got now.

Loved it!! It was weird for me to hear sims actually singing words (not that I didn't like that is was just different especially being used to Simlish) other than that I loved it, wish sims could really dance and move like that.

@Starglitters9909 Thanks! The lack of detail and customization is one of the biggest disappointments about The Sims 4 for me, right along with no open world and toddlers.
Everything in the sims 4 looks so smooth to me. There's no intricate details in the objects or the sims themselves. I think the sims 3 was made to look more realistic. The sims 4 has a more cartoony look to it. You can see this in the trees, rocks and even the grass in the sims 4. The grass to me looks like a sheet of green paper with a few marks that are suppose to look like grass.
Me personally, I wouldn't want Sims 3 CC looks for the game. Most of the time it's aiming for highly realistic and that for me is the other end of the spectrum as the cartoony look we have now. I'd like something in the middle. Sims 3 vanilla style but with better CAS, more opportunities. And I'd love real toddler like animations for the toddlers. Things toddlers do in daily life (like on a lot of pictures in this thread).
CC is a hit or miss type thing for me. I have to see how it looks in game before I keep it. Some things don't work with Sims 4 and I promptly remove anything I don't like in the game.
It was the same for Sims 2 and 3. Some creators I trust will stay true to a game's style, others I stay away from because it's photoskinned (which I hate above all) or have terrible edges, photoshop skills are dismal.
Nothing to see. I don't even care about the forums.

So what I love about the Sims is the balance of success and failure. I played the Sims 4 at night and came out with this problem. I realized a fire was occurring when one of my Sim's boyfriend caught on fire. So the smoke monitor and sprinkler system only works inside the house, what do I do for outside fires without having fire fighters around? Thankfully I have a mod to increase death reactions in my game, so 3 out of the 6 Sims in the house reacted to the fire. Not enough Sims reacting to life events like this, but moving on. I instructed the girlfriend and her mom put the fire out. I like when accidents like this happen and I can figure out solutions when those accidents occur. The Sims shouldn't just be about success and goals, but about figuring out solutions when accidents present themselves. I am forever nick naming her boyfriend a "smoking hot boyfriend."

@blewis823 - Eaten by cowplants is the best thing I can think of for creepy Bonehilda! Do they eat zombies too? The only thing in Sims 3 that creeped me out worse than Bonehilda was the zombies.
Love the variety that's turning up in this thread

@blewis823 thank you! OMG yours are so cool, I love Bonehilda too and she made me laugh with the silly things she did.
Your pics reminded me of the time Bondehilda watched my sims woohoo, apparently she wanted to read a book on their bed and very willing to wait it out. lol
What an amazing idea for an topic!
#thismysimsvision
I'm thinking Sims5 for this
I want the life stages to be like in both TS2 and TS3, especialy the former. I want relationships be closer and more focus on families and friends.
And to be honest I would love see a new life stage between the child and teen; the preteen (12-14 years). The preteen will experience his/her first kiss, while the teen can whoohoo for the first time and attend secret parties. Getting arrested and expelled from school. But also can get good grades and go off to college. I would love to see that you can choose a parenting style and it will affect the children in later life. Like if you neglect them as toddlers, they will become bullies as children or become lonely as teenagers. While it's also possible for them to become spoiled, because you have been to affectionate.
I like you points
A few people would like to see children bullying in The Sims but it adds to realism and I have mean spirited kids and teens who are the local gang.
A lot of these ideas are long over due in The Sims

I really wanted a Bonehilda tombstone, but my cowplant kept spitting her out. Others had been successful getting Bones eaten.
I've never seen the cowplant eat the zombies, don't think so because they are low in hygiene and the Sims 3 ones won't eat smelly sims. That cowplant ate the mailman once. LOL

OK, that was irritable. She did do things like that which annoyed me. LOL
I have lots more pictures of Bonehilda and her antics. Need to gather for future postings.

Don't forget lady's and Gent's, if you'd like to Tweet the #Thisismysimsvision on twitter, it is also another way of getting voices heard. Let the gaming world know how we feel and what we want from the game we all love so much!

Woot!!!! Plus don't forget the Dev's too. We want to know what they hoped for at one time too. Remember when Lyndsay said she's always dreamed of Zoo's. Lol I have too! It's a great way for us to bond with them and open a positive way to communicate!!!!!
Im having a lot of fun watching all the pictures in the thread and i really really hope people will post a whole lot more!
Especially the builders man did some people post some beautiful work!
@JGuy92 Don't worry. Just keep posting. You're classified as a "new member" right now, but the more you post and the more you have people liking and LOL'ing to what you say, the faster you can become a "member." Once you're a member then you can post pictures. So please do come back and post them once you are! I'm sure we'd all love to see them!
Both of them are on the exchange and contain no CC.
Absolutely gorgeous! You mean those blinds in the sleeping room are EA..!? Are they in the Store?
I'm sorry I'm really tired right now, so I'm being a most dense. You mean the blinds in the kids room in Illuminate-- those are from the base game. In the other bedrooms from that house I used Windows from island paradise with lights from the base game applied to them. In Modernity, it's Windows from Into the future with the holographic projectors from Into the future applied to them.
