Whether it is PC games, mobile or console.
Correct me if these are in a Sims 2 Expansion I do not have yet!
If you know of a good mod that may support these ideas or someone elses' comment, feel free to share them.
☆ Breastfeeding!! I love that you can do that in TS4. It is so touching. Also taking a pregnancy test and becoming sad if it is negative. I think this would work well for a family sim, but can be a bad memory for a romance sim.
☆ Moodlets from TS3. I think it would make sims more dynamic! The personalities are already great, but I like how moodlets describe EXACTLY how your specific sim feels about something. You can assume why your sim is doing something in TS2, for example shy sims will dance much more discreetly. This is of course because they are shy. Moodlets with descriptions can explain why. While I do like exploring actions and seeing why one sim does something one way and another does it differently without it being spelled out to me, there are other benefits to moodlets too.
For example, in TS2 i dont bother brushing my sims teeth or grooming in the mirror. I dont know if it adds a hygiene boosts or not, but if it does its a negligible amount. With a moodlet, it tells me that my sims feel fresh from doing so and adds a boost to their happiness in TS3. The offside to this though is if I add too many "happy boosting" actions it can end up like TS4, where if you drink enough juice or something you will stop being sad when your dad dies. But I think if the boost is small enough it will not change. But I dont want the emotion system from TS4, and in TS2 when a mate cheats or dies they will randomly cry anyway with a thought bubble showing the deceased or cheating, so we do not need an emotion system anyways.
Even moodlets that do nothing, like the "its dark" moodlet when you have no lights does no positive or negative to needs, but I like seeing how my sims feel about it.
☆ Id like to see some traits reworked as quirks or characteristics. I don't think traits should replace the personality system. They are not deep/dynamic enough. But I think they should be added. For example, being a vegetarian is NOT a personality. But I think it should work as a quirk/trait, still allowing your sim to have a specific diet. You could have 2 or 3 options like that to add to your sim that doesnt affect their personality per say but specific to a sim. "Traits" like being a vegetarian, technophobe, never nude, loves the heat, likes dogs, hates art etc. They alone are not enough for a personality but are good for adding details to a sim.
What are your ideas?

ew, it was censored.

Would be great to see it again. Would be great in The Sims 2...
But I have mods for almost anything I felt was ignored. Like sit anywhere while drinking from a bar or watch TV from any seat in the room instead of directly facing a TV etc. Those are great mods. ETA: So is sleep on any lot and skill on any lot, townies will also gain skills if they use something that offers a skill. So is the mod to add more walkbys and cars passing the lot. It's almost as immersive as open world. The cars are the best since it makes it feel like a busy city at your Sim house.
I wanted the ablity to visit neighbors in TS2 but with a mod to control the other Sim visiting and then switch and play that Sim while on my lot it's no longer that important to me. lol Just have to remember they will age on my lot if still there at 6 and will run off to work if I'm controlling them on my lot (or even a community lot) if I don't stop right before due to go to work and there is a risk I break relationship memory system if I do this too often. lol
And with another one:
With Sim Blender (a plant) on any lot I can fix just about anything or do anything.
Yes, brushing teeth and washing face add about 3 points to fix hygiene. Also so do better sinks. Why have a cheap sink that only has 2 points if you wash your Sim's hands if you can have a 6 point sink. And the AL mirror is very handy when you don't have room to add another full bath. So, if the other one is occupied you can revert to the mirror and fix a dirty Sim and not have to wait on the shower. Base game 'gussy up' also adds hygiene points if no sink.
There are mp3 players in TS2:University but you cannot listen to them and do actions at the same time
Personality,depth,humor,consequences,lore,customization.
I know which is why I kind of want it as a feature. It just sucks that they aren't able to multitask with it. Oh well at least the sims animations when using them is pretty funny
See my Sims 3 studio for latest progress.

Sit anywhere while having a drink. If I remove the stools at a bar and add tables to a bar then it looks much better for Sims to be seated while at tables having a drink. This in turn allows for more conversation while they are seated having a drink, near each other instead of at the bar.
Something that annoys me about TS2 is when seated at a bar my Sims will get up and switch stools if there is another one. That had to be stopped by getting the mod to allow to sit anywhere (usually they pick the best, most comfy chair at a table). And of course if not enough stools at bar they chose to stand so I had to get the mod to sit anywhere while having a drink.
Another mod that allows me to call over any Sim in game is good to have when you just can't find the Sim you need your Sim to interact with at any given point in time. Like filling a want to talk see someone. lol But I normally don't have that problem as I play on rotation and I send most of Sims to community lots and those will be the Sims that show up the next time usually so not too hard to find someone when playing on rotations.
There is a want in the game that doesn't get filled sometimes, and that is talk. Well, many interactions is talking but unless you pick chat it may not count. I'm like good grief you just told a joke to them, that is talking.... That gets annoying, so yeah, another mod for that. lol
But on point, I was building a train the other day in TS2. But I couldn't shape the roof of the engine the way it needs to be rounded. So, I was sitting there wishing a modder had created a way for me to manipulate the curve of a roof like the sliders we have in Ts4. I really like those features to pull a roof. I really need that for TS2. The point places so I can round it more etc. That is something I do like about TS4. Really, really wish a modder would do that for us in TS2. ETA: Because after all these years, I can't remember CokeBuilder's instructions of how to curve a very narrow roof.
Story progression/household aging. If TS2 had this, I’d never touch another Sims game tbh lol.
Attraction system. Such an amazing addition to the game that adds more uniqueness and individuality to sims.
This one may be weird, but I really miss the story option from TS2. You could just put some pix together, add some words and directly upload it to TS2 website. Those were the days.

Follow me on tumblr (sims only)
simsophonique.tumblr.com (please no triggers I am autistic asperger)
Travel to friends' homes
Disable aging checkbox (I am always leery of the cheat)
Enter CAS after creation of sim through cheat
Some multi tasking
Remove the point-quota from the personality system
Oh, also a less bespoke graphics system so the game doesn't constantly revert to 'no graphics card' settings, forcing me to apply the graphics patch again. Could even improve performance or add interesting shaders easier with that.

Romance aspiration was done better in S3/S4 (I don't want every romance sims to be cheaters). S2 aspirations are too broad (I think S3/S4 aspirations went in the right direction even if it's still imperfect). Same thing for traits and skill system (too little to choose from in S2). Choosing a sim's favorite color, music, zodiac sign etc.

2) Calendar. As annoying as it is to constantly have to remake my calendar on every new save, I still really like the fact that it exists. I also like the random little events it pops up, like the lotto or tv premier, ect. It really does add a more realistic aspect to the game, also great ways to get the family together for important events.
3) More outfit slots in CAF. I like having the option of making multiple outfits off the start like in Sims 4. I just don't like seeing my Sims wear the same outfits every single day, because it makes me believe that they literally never wash their clothes which is pretty disgusting.
4) Neighborhood zone to roam. Sims 3's worst thing was the open world because that caused the majority of the problems in game. Sims 4's neighborhood zone gives a little freedom by allowing you to roam outside your home lot, but doesn't render in other homes or lots to cause major lag issues. Sims 2 feels super alone and empty because you can't really see any of the neighborhood existing. You'll have a few Sims pass down your street sometimes, but it doesn't really feel as realistic as it could.
5) And lastly, Sims 3 traits. The Sims 4 traits are useless. Sims are all the same in it. But in Sims 3, there were a lot more traits to make a more unique Sim. It also added in a great roleplay aspect by helping you properly define your Sim with traits, and building your story around that.
