Sims 4 Emotions/Interactions Expansion Pack

I'm really disappointed that the Sims have emotions in sims 4, but they don't have much depth. They can be changed so quickly by just looking at a picture, or object, or whatever.
I wish the devs would really expand on emotions, even make an expansion pack exclusive to emotions and emotion interactions. Even new emotions. Possibly add turn offs, and traits that would play on other sims emotions. Like a 'creepy' trait, and whenever they're around other sims, they could give them a 'cringe' emotion. Or an 'attractive' sim could give another sim an 'attracted' emotion.
On top of that, a sim who meets another sims' turn on requirements could feel an 'attracted' emotion.
There are so many more emotions than 'fine', 'dazed', 'embarassed', etc. and it would add such a new layer to the game.
My favorite part of sims has always been exploring the different interactions and making sims have different personalities. It's a lot harder in the sims 4, a lot of the sims seem so cookie cutter to me.

Me either.
Personally, I would rather they add other things than focus so much on emotions. I read somewhere that when one of the creators was asked why toddlers and pools were left out of the base game they said it was so that they could focus on deeper emotions. I would have rather had toddlers and pools than a deeper emotional system. I was perfectly fine with emotions the way that they were in Sims 3 and Sims 2. But that's just me, other people may feel differently.
They focused too much on emotions and CAS instead of actual gameplay in my opinion. I don't think emotions are a big deal but I guess many fans do
I agree there is too much focus on emotions and I prefer more focus on finer details and gameplay.
I do like the amount of effort they put into CAS though. It's my favorite part of the game.
Me too and CAS is my favorite part too
About emotions, could be more complete, yes, but these are basic and are good as well.
Emotions exclusive to age groups would be cool, too. Like in the sims 3 when they had teens that were 'rebellious'. Or emotions exclusive to traits. A hopeless romantic could be 'heartbroken'.
