I have to throw in the towel on Sims 4 and just let the fact that I simply do not like it take hold. I have tried so hard to give it more and more time to grow on me. But it just isn't. Why do you think that is? I fell into the Sims trap with part 2 and almost became obsessed with it(not literally, exaggerating there). Then EA released part 3 and I was so partial to 2 that it took me quite a while to get accustomed to 3 and the changes there.
Now we have 4 and I am back to round one again. This game just seems to get more and more difficult with each new addition. I don't want to be a cry baby about it, but I am just a bit disappointed and regret purchasing this game before I read any reviews, or at least waited until all of the bugs were ironed out, or at least until I found it on sale at a great price.
It simply isn't related to any kind of Sims life that I am used to. IDK, it just does NOT have that Sims feel to it at all, I can't quite put my finger on what the problem is (except for the FACT that they changed EVERYTHING). Even the NPC sims just seem melodic, monotonous and boring. Wish I could put it in the right words. It just isn't the Sims to me. Maybe I'm just not accustomed to change lol. Who knows? Bottom line is...
Sorry EA, but I think 4 is the worst most anticipated game in a long time.

I do like the Sims 4 though, very much.
I just don't understand why creators can't seem to understand that it's a very simple formula. If it works, and people loved it, KEEP IT. Get rid of what the people hated. Don't re-wire the whole game for a new installment. Re-learning camera moves etc just stinks.
I discover new bugs and glitches every time I get on the game, I can't go to community lots without the game crashing after about 10 minutes, the design aspects are deplorable at best, and it has taken away the option for me to play the game how I want to. I haven't touched the game in over a month, which is sad considering the Sims has been my go to game for over a decade. It's just not my game anymore. I keep hoping it will get better, but it only seems to get worse as I play. It's the biggest disappointment of my year.
So I was lost and Simless, then TS4 came along and it has filled the void quite nicely, luckily.
In the Sims 4 the sims just don't really seem to care about anything. Their life just seems to be boring.

Yes!
I agree, i gave chance too, but but my disappointment is so deep...
I agree. I, too, tried to get into The Sims 4. I just couldn't. So many things was and still is wrong with the game that I don't even bother playing it anymore. It actually killed my interest in the prequels, which makes my disappointment for it even worse than it was before I'd started playing it.
I did not anticipate much as Maxis just didn't reveal anything in the advertisement. They seemed a bit confused as to what would be in the game. I was worried with all the hinting and not screen shots or valid data before it was released. If it were to be a great game, Maxis would have been showing and telling everyone, everywhere.
> The sims 4 had me worried from the very beginning. When they refused to answer our questions and wouldn't ever show us any live game play. I said to myself UH OH. Something is not right. Then they started saying they had to take out this and they had to take out that and oh by the way it won't have CASt and there's no open world. That right there was the straw that broke the camels back for me. I refused to spend $70.00 for for a rushed mess and now I am glad I did.
You were so wise...so wise.
> I remember before the sims 4 was released everyone was, Oh the sims 4 I want it I want it, it's the best game ever, it's got to be better than the sims 3. Oh well, people tried to tell you but you just wouldn't listen. Maybe you are a bunch of sheep after all.
Actually I never read any of the reviews or what people tried to tell me about any of the sequels. My disappointment in part 4 has somehow given me a voice to actually come to the forums and complain LOL. I wish I had read up before hand, but I just played my games and carried on like always. Then, part 4 happened...
