Now that my settings are all the way turned up...Wow!!! I didn't know water could be so pretty! It looks like real water. And the shadowing and richness of the color. It's so beautiful. Does anyone else find them selves really just admiring the beauty of the visuals?
Oh and now the flowers are gorgeous. I zoom in and see so much detail on plants. I feel like I'm playing this game for the first time, because before my game looked okayish and now its amazing
I especially love now , that my sims look like they do when I created them in cas

The lighting is breathtaking. I never realized how important lighting was. Sims 4 lighting is prettier than real life
I think beautiful visuals enhance gameplay.
That's awesome.I HATE waiting on shipments. I cant stand it.I just have to go in the store and pick it up When I really want something, I want it now lol
Yes, I love the lighting update. It's gorgeous. The only complain I have is that they still haven't fixed the jumping shadows issue which could be kinda annoying to me when I'm busy admiring the lighting and then the shadow just jumps. XD
The outdoor lighting is also fantastic. I love how bright and glowy everything is between 11am-3pm.
That's about like me. My old one was even worse though. I went from a 640 to a 1080. Hopefully there will be some games coming out that are worth playing.
The Sims Game
I also downloaded a lighting mod from brntwaffles which removes blue shadows/tints and that also helps.
Another thing I love is the way Sims look. There's something about TS3 Sims that I absolutely can't stand and I actually skipped playing that game entirely because of it lol. TS4 is a huge improvement in that department.
I've noticed that a lot of people don't like post processing effects, but I think it really enhances the graphics. My outdoor screenshots look a lout better with it on.
I used to be obsessed with skin mods and hyper realistic cc, but I've recently come to the conclusion it doesn't suit the style of the game. It works for some and that's fine, but I've really be enjoying using maxis match cc.
I find myself spending a lot of time choosing lights in this game to get just the right coverage and effect.
Very impressive.
They have different styles though. If you've seen it in game and turned the gamma settings perfectly, it looks even more amazing than this.
And I disagree, graphics don't enhance gameplay. I'd rather have a game that's super fun to play than one that looks amazing.

Don't forget the forum rules are on the forum- go find 'em!
One of my favorite games of all time is still Final Fantasy Tactics a game that was graphically challenged even for it's time.
In fact TS1 didn't really measure up to games being released at the same time..so I get where you're coming from.
Can't say I agree with your statement the way it was worded though.
I'm not a huge fan of the blur but it definitely enhances the graphics in general - makes it brighter and more 'glowy' which I really like.
And I agree with your other post. The Sim in my avatar has CC skin but it's a 'matte'/Maxis Match-y skin that just smooths things out a bit. All of my CC is Maxis Mach.
Saying "not to be rude", then blatently being rude does not excuse rude behavior.
