    in The Sims 4 Ideas Corner
    If you had to pick one hobby (or category of hobby) you really want in the Sims 4 game right now, what would it be? If you want more than one (and to be honest who dosen't) please feel free to list the ones you'd like to see down below.

    I had to use categories as there are too many to list individually. And yes I realize some hobbies could easily fall into multiple categories. Pick the one that you think best describes the hobby and then you can go into more detail down below.

      I would love bands and more instruments, but gambling and body related hobbies aswell.

      I would love to see a pool table (skill like bowling/dancing) and more bar games, like a pinball machine and a countertop gaming touch screen. I also would love to see the martial arts skill, nectar making, and bands as well, so this was a hard decision!

      I would love to create a band with my club! (Are you suggesting a Hobby Pack or base game feature?)

      Could be either, but I would love to see a hobby pack someday.

      I'd say both body and gaming related, but both also focused on team activities.

      I'd like a sports focus like being able to play football, baseball, or box/spar with other sims. This fits University EP pretty well.

      Gaming related I want tabletop, once again to get sims together and play games.

      I would love all craft hobbies... glassbowing, pottery, sewing, sketchpads!

      I want my sims to collect driftwood and use the woodworking table to create awesome things with it.

      I want a metal detector for combing the beach for treasures.

      I want billiards and a casino.

      I want nectar making.

      I want bands with a front lead singer.

      .....I'll wait.

      Honestly it never really crossed my mind until I saw this poll, but the idea of having a sewing/knitting hobby is really neat. It would be interesting if you could unlock different wardrobe items in CAS as you level up the skill.

      This was hard, as I want so many. I definitely want knitting and sewing, but also crochet and origami. Nectar making and music related hobbies would be great too.

      I like crafting objects because think of it. You would be able to have your sim make objects that reflect their personality and use them as clutters all around the house. and who doesn't like more clutters?

      All of these sound really good. Fitness and exercise has always seemed to get the minimum every Sims game. I would love to deck my gyms out with more variety, so I chose the body related. Crafting objects, Food related, music related, and Gaming related would also be high on my list though. The rest sound interesting but I'm not actively wishing for them at this time.
      It's kind of sad that I have to point out that anything I say is only just my opinion and may be a different one from someone else.

      If I had to pick 1, crafting. I love new craftables of all types, as they are both hobby and business opportunity.

      But honestly?

      I want them all tbh Imagine all the potential Sims 4 would have if we could have them all. But If I wanna pick one it would be body related especially swimming! I'm fed up watching my sim swim awkwardly like they always do. I want to see them swimming underwater and as a specific skill. Each level would allow them to swim another style and would improve their breath holding capacity. As we go on this, please bring back scuba diving again and surf but this time in the ocean!

      I guess you and I are not the only ones who want more hobbies for our sims :)

      Sports: Soccer, Archery, Wrestling, Volleyball, Ice Hockey,
      Music: Trumpet, Sax, Bass, Harp Drums to essentially Create a Band, Orchestra.
      Crafting: Sculpting, chiseling blocks of Marble, or other types of rock material, of specific Sims.
      Wine Making & Beer Brewing
      Linked with Archery, I'd Like to see woodworking get an update, based on your Handiness Skill and Archery, the more types of Bows and Crossbows, you can make. from beginner to Professional, Ornate, craftsmanship. plus wall decorations like Arrow wall hangings. oooh when not in use you can place your Bow and Quiver to hang as wall decor!

      I would take any these, I really hope we will see more hobbies introduced to the game this year
    • RedSunBluesRedSunBlues Posts: 143 Member
      as a glassblower myself I'd love to see glassblowing as a skill. both scientific with torch or lathe work as well as glass art with cold working, torch, and regular glassblowing. maybe sims could use the crystals and minerals to change the glasses color. the other I want the most is bands and concerts/band practice/jam sessions/shows/open mic nights. Bands could also take album cover photos, have after parties, give away instruments, bring a fan up to sing, jam with other musicians or bands... so many ideas. Would really love if it was 90s rocker themed with more low tech gadgets for sims and maybe a typewriter, that's probably the single item I want most in the game.

      Body related (Soccer/Football, Ballet, Martial Arts)
      I chose Body related, because I'd love Martial Arts, Ballet, Ballroom Dancing, Tennis, and Volleyball.

      But I'd also love having a pool table, poker, RC Model cars & boats, canning, sewing (clothes & quilts), jewelry making, metal detecting, vehicle restoration and bands too. It would be cool if bands came with more instruments other than just the standard drum kit and REAL electric guitars we don't have. I'd love a saxophone (alto or tenor) especially, but a trumpet, trombone and an upright bass for swing bands would be fantastic!

      What I actually need is a category for 'all of the above.' :) I guess I'm #TeamAllTheThings as well! lol

      Oh! Archery would be fabulous too! <3

      I'd love to see my sim participate in sports tournaments and practicing with teammates! Also martial arts would be cool to see.

      Crafting an Object (Jewelry, Glassblowing, Candle Making, Pottery)
      I chose crafting, but I'd also like to see ballet return, as well as the sewing machine. I also like the idea of knitting. And maybe embroidery, that Sims could hang on the wall for decoration? It was always fun to see the failures, too, when a Sim was just learning a skill - I remember some lopsided pottery from the Free Time pack.
      I just want things to match. :'(

      In my current save, I've been using the woodworking table extensively to craft objects for my Sims, as opposed to buying them from the catalogue. Once you reach a higher level, you can craft violins and guitars for your Sims - I never realised that was possible! It would be great to see this expanded on in a later pack/update.
