[Live mode] More interactions for each Trait and Emotion

LeGardePourpre

Hi,

The traits and the emotions are limited to 1 or 2 exclusive interactions, it's extremely poor.

Several of them are disable on NPC townies, it causes these sims got no personality and almost no emotion (only sad, angry & flirty are really expressed).

For example, your sim got a "Bro" NPC friend but "Bro" trait means nothing in their relationship, it's very strange for a "Social Trait".
It's the same problem with "Family-Oriented" NPC townies even if your sim is member of the family.

The fact the NPC townies can feel Confident, Inspired, Energized, Focused or Bored is just decorative, we can't take advantage of the situation to do something specific to these emotional states.

In The Sims 3, there were a ton of useless traits which were never improved/extended/upgraded by the game update or the packs.

In The Sims 4, instead of getting more traits, I would like the ones of the basegame mean something in the everyday life of my sims.

Yeah I would love if traits were more fleshed out in the game. They feel kind of useless in the game now, so more interactions and ties into the game would be nice to have. I've actually tried the five trait system with mods before and preferred that over the three trait system. Zerbu actually has quite a few traits that can bring in more interesting flavors into the game. I really want more negative traits in the game like bad cook and insomnia and black widow.

Traits are so useless anyways. All they do is give you specific moodlets and some social interactions that are no different from any other. The only good trait ever was kleptomaniac because you could steal stuff with it.

In sims 3 i felt they added some to the wishes an actions of sims, some traits more than others.... it gave the sims personality
