The big thing that got me about the recent patch was the age specific traits.
They are amazing, and directly affect how the toddler acts, reacts and learns!
I think it would be amazing to add age specific traits that can be added as a sims age up (having the previous one removed) that has more of an effect on the way a sim acts.
I specifically thought about the idea when thinking about teens and the mood swings from sims 3.
(preface i'm not that creative so some of my ideas for sure need a tweaking but its just rough examples to get a point across)
I was thinking stuff like:
Anti social where teen sims build relationships slower but build skills like gaming, logic etc faster.
Moody teens will randomly swing into a bad mood for no reason! Maybe its their hormones kicking in?
A* student, Teens complete homework faster
Popular, Teens gain relationships faster with other teens
Brat: Kids who don't get enough attention/ new toys become angry easily
Golden child: Kid sims gain family relationships faster and have a boots to skill gain
Golden Age: Elders fun decreases slower as they enjoy their golden year
OAG (Old age grump): elders become irratible easier, find it hard to gai realationship with younger sims.
I hope thats some good examples and people understand what i'm on about. I'd love for something like this to come in a generations style EP. I feel it would help differentiate between the diffrent ages.
