Sims 3 is still better than Sims 4?

But Sims 1 launched with pools
The only things they improved upon was the look of the sims themselves and some aspects of build mode. In my opinion
I keep playing TS4 now and again, and sometimes I do enjoy it a bit. But I can't play it for long. Today, I lasted 15 minutes and I was fed up with the bugginess of it in that short space of time. Eliza and Bob kept getting the 'go home' action pop up even though they were at home. Eliza left her dinner to go and stand by the front door for no apparent reason. Bob felt the need to return to the table and sit down before washing his plate. They had a random stranger walk into their house and sit at the table chatting with them while another went upstairs to play on their computer.
In comparison - for me - TS3 is far less buggy, annoying and restrictive.
True, but CAW takes a lot of time to truly master and create a decent looking world. Nobody should have to spend hours or days with it to get a change in scenery for one group of Sims for a Sim-day.
Luckily, people have made worlds that include a city, a suburb, and tropical beaches, but I'd still like something way more expansive than that in TS5, if there will be one.
I don't use CAW but I am able to edit all my EA worlds and be happy with the results without using it. Right now I am making a Roaring Heights type town out of Sunset Valley, which is my favorite world to play in because of the way it's laid out. I've also made it into a Future town using all the buildings and stuff from ITF EP.
Take Demyan.
Demyan meets Éowyn, my heir, in Sunlit Tides.
Demyan in Lunar Lakes, where he ended up in an attempt to save Éowyn, who got abducted by aliens.
Demyan reunited with Éowyn, collecting his son who stayed with his father in law in Hidden Springs.
Demyan and his family arriving in Monte Vista to visit his own father.
They decide to leave Sunlit Tides and permanently settle in Italy.
Demyan visiting his pregnant granddaughter Raven in Isla Paradiso.
Demyan arriving in Midnight Hollow, to save some poor souls who are trapped in a haunted world, among whom the father of Raven's child.
Demyan in Dragon Valley, gifting his greatgrandson his first wand.
This is the life of one sim in Sims 3, the way I play the game. I just take them anywhere when I feel like it. And yes, I have to save families into the bin to do it and start a new game, but that's very easily done. The only thing I had to remember was to put in a 🐸🐸🐸🐸 wagon in there before putting him in. Sims 3 only is a prison when you want it to be. And I don't. One sim, one story, seven different worlds.

Per example
Brucey and Family go to Egypt (with said mod you can take the entire family)
Back home on Lunar Lakes
Prev. trip to Dystopian Future, where Bruce got pregnant with Alien baby. They brought her back to LL with them.
Before babies, their first vacation to Sunlit Tides.... Bruce was not happy with all the sunshine. (I had better pictures but they're on Photobucket)
Getting into fights in Dragon Valley (granted, this one wasn't my favorite.. only because of the lack of venues which I WOULD have to build given time) Brought the toddlers here.
Discovering Relics in China, you can see how thrilled Emma is. Kids were left at home this time.
They've also been to Regular Future, and Utopian future. The family just left for another trip to Utopian future so that Galilea can meet her... ah... Pollinator? (genetic Mother). I still need to take them to Champs les Sims, maybe as a couples trip though.
So I definitely don't feel like they are stuck in one place. Not to mention I have the whole world around them, when they are in whatever location they are in at the moment. I can deal with the loading screens for these places because they bring me to an entirely new world. I can't deal with them when its just going to the neighbors, or downtown, or across the street, or etc. etc.

I missed Sims 2, however Sims 3? the sims design are just .... ewww
You can have Hours and Hours of game play with the Sims 3 and still haven't done everything that the game offers, Sims 4 you can play not even a hour and you done everything.
So I have to disagree with you there.
Must depend on how you play. I've played hundreds of hours and there are still base game things I haven't done.
> Sims 3 is by far my favourite, with Sims 2 not far behind but Sims 4 is like a badly made meal, one taste and you wanna throw it in the bin.
This!
I love TS2, but IMO TS3 sims´design is quite good unless your design with TS3 tools is that bad...
And ther´s no CC in those sims, but some hairstyles
I can play at last TS2 TS3 and TS4 So great that toddlers are here!!!
You are not alone. Truly. The Sims was a great part of my childhood. From 1 to 3. I still play The Sims 3 because 4 has fallen back. Honestly, it almost seems like a failed attempt to make the old new again. Sorry to read about your $70.00 though. Good to know I'm cautious, fortunate, and broke. As for the Expansion Packs, Updates, and so on, you might want to try reading and watching some reviews before coming to the conclusion of is it worth it or not. I'm still on the edge of should I get it or not. Even though it is missing a lot of things, it is still under development. Maybe it will get better. Who knows? Even though I'm still unsure, I'm still disappointed...
This
Look at that people. A real city in the background!
Not just a pick like the sims 4 lol!
This statement is just and plainly untrue, this city in the background is absolutely playable, your sims can go into it, live in those skycrapers walk among those streets, drive its cars visit its theatres, parks, restaurants, bars, museums etc
Edited to say I had missunderstood your post, I just wanted to express how wonderfull it is TS3 open world! (lol)
And in this one too
and this one too
and this one too
AND... OMG I could go on almost "ad infinitum"...
I can play at last TS2 TS3 and TS4 So great that toddlers are here!!!
