Does anyone else feel the way I do, that the sensuality and courtship techniques experienced in past series are missing in Sims 4?
Do you remember the dates in past iterations, with slow dancing, caressing, make outs on the couch and in the bed? Where did it all go? Why am I not feeling the romance in Sims 4. I also remember the rose giving and the bouquet that was awarded when a date went well. Do you also remember the date at a restaurant with playing footsies under the table and holding hands and cooing at each other over the meal and then having the option to invite the date over your house for a stay over. Do you remember the honeymoon after the wedding? Do you remember the little film clip that played when first making love and film clip that played when making love in the hot tub. There has got to be more to love than what we are currently getting in Sims 4. I know that I am a hopeless romantic and that I love to create romantic scenarios but in the years since Sims 4, I am becoming a bitter, love-starved, pathetic gamer. My focus is all about money lately, running businesses that lately have been failing miserably due to, well, eco impacts. Customers are focused on brawling in my restaurants and never pay for meals. I want something else to focus on and that is namely, the romantic relationship. Let me know how you feel because I feel all alone right now and need some validation.

But on the other hand there are also "normal romantic" animations missing.
For example, I don't understand why sims don't even cuddle in bed.
I also wish we would have an underwear category like in Sims 2.
there is so little to do with your boo in sims4
been hoping for couple dance to make comeback since release TT
people keep saying its cause "its hard to animate" or whatever "clipping issues" but i mean if you can add sparring I am sure you can add couple dancing just that easily
+ I'd just love for my sims to be able to do more activities together instead of separately cause I mean being couple isn't just woohoo in several locations u kno
and there is tons of cutesy stuff, intimate stuff that would not go over any rating at all

Indeed! God forbid EA give the developers any money. Instead, lets give all our profits to Marketing to make terrible tv shows
It makes me wonder what they have planned for the long term future if they are spending their marketing money on TV shows. Maybe TS5 will indeed be online multiplayer and the gameplay will consist of challenges.
Yikes, that would be awful!
Personality,depth,humor,consequences,lore,customization.
Dumpster Woohoo is also a great way to contract as many diseases as possible Very romantic
I do actually kind of like the animations for Dumpster Woohoo, but I want more romance options in general. Like cuddling in bed and slow dancing.
Lately I’ve gotten back into the game (took several months off) and I’m noticing more autonomous romance in my game. One couple even woohood on their own. I thought we needed a mod for that.
And there are some uni students I’m playing where Matt was flirting with Harmonie while they were studying. But I planned for Harmonie to get together with Jordan. And as much as I tried, Jordan would reject her. Then I realized Jordan was pining for someone else. So I let them couple off how they wanted and I just think that’s cute how they chose on their own. I’ve heard there is an underlying mechanism for attraction and it seems stronger now. Or maybe it’s in my head, lol.

I was thinking the same thing, cuddling in bed is a big hole in the love making ritual and I also miss the underwear category.
You said it very well. There is nothing going on, where did it all go wrong?
Android Wilson (beep boop), EA's CEO did recently mention future Sims titles having a focus on competitive play:
https://simscommunity.info/2020/01/31/eas-ceo-confirms-a-next-generation-sims-game-might-have-both-single-player-and-multiplayer/
So honestly I think this Sims Sparkd thing is probably a hint of what's to come.
Gone will be the community challenges like 100 baby, rags to riches, or one of Lilsimsie's shell challenges, soon it'll be Maxis deciding what the players compete for.
LOL, I was flabbergasted over the latest news about a tv challenge show, what the? I am clueless.
Well there are definitely some slam bam thankya mam kind of guys out there or even girls, maybe, lol but still romance cannot be undersold for the majority,.
All that seems pretty awesome, I didn't notice it yet but I hope you are right because romance definitely needs some ramping up. Then again, it could all be in your head, lol, no, just kidding.
