What new hobbies or skills would you like to see. «12...Next Go

CorkysPetals

In the past Sims games we've seen lots of skills and hobbies. What would you like to see in the games?

We've had a makeover station, tattoo station, sculpture, car repair, nectar making, dancing, clothing design, we even had acting and runway modelling in the Sims 1. What else do you want to see?

I want ballet to come back! for adults and kids! I also really want to see ice and roller skating, and being able to do it outside the rinks as well, like up and down the street or even within the house as a phase for kids. Sewing might be another good one, with clothes you MUST make, you can't just have in CAS to provide incentive, and maybe even martial arts come back.

Yes to everything here. I would also love:
- a flower arrangement skill. To give some use to the flowers already in game and have different new bouquets and stuff to decorate with.
- candle and soap making (again, the flowers could be use)
- scuba diving (altought for that we would need to be able to swim in bodies of water to start with)
- old furniture restoration/stained glass
- nectar/ olive oil making (would be perfect for a new Mediterranean world)
- Robotics

I'd love more hobbies! I started a thread detailing a hobby-oriented game pack recently and commenters added several excellent ideas here.

JackieAdams

Interior decorating
Acting
Alchemy
Bot Making
Inventing
Martial Arts
Scuba
Social Networking
Pottery
Sewing
Technology
Archery
Farming
Foraging
I miss the ones from 2 & 3.

Dannydanbo

I left out anything that might be considered a farm chore, like candle making, butter churning, etc, just in case it comes in a farm pack. Plus, I tend to think of farm related stuff as chores more than hobbies, but I do want those things too.

luthienrising

I'd like to see fabric crafts like knitting, genealogy, and role-play gaming.

ChadSims2

The main things I want to see

Car Repair
Skateboarding
Karate
Surfing (in ocean not a wave machine)
Soccer (actual games not standing around waiting for a turn)
Ballet

def Pop-A-Shot, for sure! :p

I want to see ALL of this asap!!! Plus ALL the old hobbies and skills!!! A thorough Active Fashion Designer Career!!!!!! Sims Mobile's fashion designer career is too much of a dead wrong teaser!!!

MasonGamer

Archery - tied to wood working so you can create your own bows and arrows.
Soccer (Ball Not bound to Goal)
Volley Ball
Hockey
Fencing + other types of Sword Fighting - create wood swords... maybe even metal working create swords.
Dancing (Foxtrot, Waltz)

Drums
Saxophone
Trumpet

I would mind clothiers skill

Wine & Beer Making storing it letting it age, naming it and selling/serving in our own restaurants.

Jaysims

They better be working on a Hobbies Pack an they better bring back most of the hobbies that were in the Sims 2: FreeTime INCLUDING ballet because I used to love when my child sims would practice their plies lol

Also gymnastics would be nice to have.

GamingTweety

Martial arts, balllet or tango like dances, more sports like tennis, volleyball. More instruments(cello flute etc.) Music groups, orchestras, fashion, modeling...

GamingTweety

Additionally, I would like to see swimming skill. Ability to teach how to swim from toddler to elder. Helper tools or safety aids for sims who don't know how to swim. Different styles of swimming and courses...

A simmer after my own heart. Love the idea of adding olive oil making with the nectar making to make a more Mediterranean feel. Plus the idea of the old furniture restoration sounds beautiful and I can see a grandpa sim making some furniture for their grandkids weddings as a gift. Absolutely lovely suggestions.

Aisurando

Cleaning skill?

AHolyToilet

Honestly, I'd support anything, but here are some I'd really like to see:

• Sketching
• Vehicle repair and customization
• Martial Arts/Swordplay/Proper Boxing
• Building supercomputers
• Dancing, especially slow dances and couple dances
• Electric guitar
• Inventing

penny whistle playing

Micdali

I really hope they improve the sims 4 dancing, specifically slow dancing and actually have them dance together facing each other connected. The way it is now, it sucks, they can't even have a proper first dance at their wedding. Also, I'd love to see them bring back the drums and add some more cool instruments to play, but allow the kids to play as well.

xXholicxX360

Scuba diving, more instruments. Maybe even sewing, crocheting for the older sims. And if they ever include cars driving. Oh and riding skills for horses

Laura_Jones

I liked it before when you could play in a "band". It would be nice if there were several instruments in the same area and people could collaborate and play one song together and make use of the microphone for singing.
Also I agree with the dancing that needs to be more connected, i.e. slow dancing, facing one another.

Simtarris22

Bumping for the sake OF IT NEEDS TO BE BUMPED!!!! This is needed!!!! Sims need a plethora of things to do and places to go for "FUN"!!!
