We want: Faeries, with a good ability tree, hopefully before summer 2024.
What do we want to get rid of: The holiday bug, the constant showering and the weed glitch.
I've left my feedback. No to time limited Scenarios. And more scenarios that aren't just "challenges" but actual storytelling ideas. I may be alone on that one, but I don't do most existing fan challenges for a reason. There's rarely any story seed to it, so it's just as much of a checklist as any Aspiration in game.
I'm really happy they are collecting feedback. I hope this brings about a bunch of new scenarios that are much improved because I have not enjoyed them as much as I hoped. Mostly I really felt the reward was too small and needed to be doubled, have simoleons added, or present a special reward item. And I'd like more gameplay challenge variety like: Become a Vampire/ Mermaid. Rescue a stray cat/dog. Adopt an Orphan. Become a Grandparent. Open a bakery. Resurrect a ghost. Build a robot. Become a doctor and delivery a baby. Not all of them need to take a long time, can be simple, fun and easy, like I don't know, get blue milk from a cow, discover all the recipes from food festival stalls. Grow a perfect rose bush.
The toddler one was my favourite of the bunch.
I just hope those that dislike the idea don't say they play them at the beginning of the survey then proceed to tear them apart. Wouldn't be fair to those who do enjoy. Just be honest in the survey.

The Sims 4 hasn't introduced a new musical instrument since 2017
If the scenarios had more rules that affected how to play the game and were more challenging, then I might have been interested.
Awesome thats the way it should be.

I also mentioned not liking scenarios offered for a limited time only.
I'm interested in the scenarios, I like the structured goal oriented play, some challenges type play and some idea prompting play that they offer as a change up. I also like good old sandbox play which is probably my more typical play style. I'm definitely interested in seeing more scenarios added to the game so there are more to choose from/something for everyone (and please don't forget to add some occult related scenarios as well).
"Have you played scenarios?"
No.
"Why haven't you played scenarios?"
I'm not interested in scenarios.
"Thanks, bye."
I don't need scenarios, I need new gameplay.
Also for them to add a way for existing households to join a scenario.
For instance, 3 toddlers was too easy. We could have had an option for easy (with a lesser reward), moderate with 4 toddlers and a better reward or hard with 5 toddlers and an even better reward.
I'll probably continue playing that save because it's like a bunch of old friends so that might influence my interest in playing any scenarios. I might try them out but I wouldn't abandon my main save. I get that some players need direction and want a beginning, middle and end to a situation. That isn't me but I might try playing scenarios for a change sometime. I can see the appeal to people with limited time. The rewards are silly though.
They seem like they’re designed for people getting bored with the current gameplay rather than people content with the game but who are always interested in new content and ways to play.
Another thing that would make them more attractive to play would be if the reward was a unique trait. We already get trait rewards from completing aspirations, so why not from completing scenarios too? It would be nice if my Sim who completed the toddler challenge had a special parenting trait as a reward with social interactions, moodlets etc..
I definitely want to see them continue I just think they can be improved. I hope the feedback wasn't so negative that they cancel it because I like getting new gameplay content to try. I personally want Maxis to provide my game with everything I don't really want to have to look to influencers or modders for ideas because a lot of them use cheats and mods, for example, I've always wanted to do the rags to riches one but I never did it until the money scenario because I never knew how to make their income level zero. So I really appreciate they added a very popular challenge to the game.
Same for me.
Oh that was a short survey 😂😂😂.
I said no I’m not interested in scenarios but there wasn’t any space or next question to say why.
I would be interested if they were more diverse and effected the neighbourhood more. The current ones, particularly the ones not time sensitive are doable yourself.
Perhaps even some new scenarios changing the visuals in the world but maybe that’s too big.
