This is what I want to see in Sims 5, and if they don't have this in Sims 5, I won't buy it. I'll stick to Sims 4:
1. Open world and the ability to change the furniture using CAS edit mode like in Sims 3.
2. The way they had different worlds separate from each other with their own stories in Sims 2. I loved Veronaville. I wish they would create a new Veronaville but limit the naming to Shakespearean names and the clothing styles to fit the characters.
3. I loved that you could move lots around on the streets freely and plop them down anywhere in Sims 2. I hate that you can't do that now. What sucks about Sims 4 is the lack of lots and the inability to put new ones in. I feel like with Sims 3 and 4, all these new worlds are just clutter. Most of the lots remain empty because I tend to stick to the two original neighborhoods. I play the new neighborhoods for a while but always go back to the original ones. Most houses stay empty because it's harder to play multiple families in Sims 4 with the free world living.
4. I also want the fears, aspirations, desires, etc. back from Sims 2.
5. Automatic roofs. I suck at putting roofs on houses. Bring back auto roofing but maybe with a person's choice. "No, I want a modern roof," or "I want round roofs on this house." That would make it so much better for those of us who like to build but can't do great with roofs.
6. I want to see these life stages from the beginning and not have to wait for some expansion pack: newborn, infant, toddler, kid, TWEEN, teen, college adult, young adult, mid life crisis adult, elder. And please please please give them all their own clothing styles. Go ahead and put tweens in kids and teen clothes, or teens in tweens and college adult clothes, etc. but don't put adults in teen clothing. And yes, bring on the TWEENS. Do you know how hard it is to play The Brady Bunch when you can't have an accurate Peter and Jan Brady??
7. Give us the option to turn off calendar events but still have weather. I am so sick and tired of celebrating the holidays over and over and over again with the same families. While you're at it, update the high school expansion so that prom isn't every other weekend or every weekend. Give our sims summer vacations from school, and maybe have term limits like the teen goes from freshman year to senior year before going to college. Maybe even do it where teens pick between college and technical school or going straight to work, too. In fact, do this for Sims 4! Don't wait until Sims 5 to do half of these suggestions.
8. Give us the ability to choose where the names come from. While I don't mind some of my sims having foreign based names, I hate having all game made sims with the same name but different tacky clothing. In fact, give us the option to create our own towns without having premade sims. Let us choose who we want to be the cook in the restaurants from the gallery or make our own... etc. etc. etc. There's nothing I want more than to delete all the sims that come in the game and create my own like in sims 2. Although, I do love the families like the Goths. This goes along with... I buy the expansions like the werewolf one and magic and vampires for the build mode stuff but I don't want to play with vampires, mermaids and werewolves. Give us the ability to turn that stuff off if we don't want them. I delete the vampires but the game keeps creating more who knock on my door even when I have the door saying no vampires allowed. With that being said, and please update this for sims 4!!!! but I really dislike having the game make NPC females with chest hair. Turn that crap off!!! Or give us the ability to turn it off.
and last but not least,
9. Open world mode, or whatever you call it, makes the University expansion no fun. If I want to play with one character in Foxbury, I can't play with another one elsewhere because when I go back to my Foxbury character, he or she is failing college. I loved University in Sims 3. Make it more like that please.
I'm sure there is more I could go on about, but I'll leave it here. One last thing, it would also be fun to have the ability to choose random pregnancy so you never know when your sim will get pregnant. I know there are mods that can handle all this stuff I've suggested, but I don't like to play with mods, and I think these should be options in the game instead of forced on us because we bought the expansion. Like the calendars... I like doing that every now and then, but I don't want prank day or rebate day all the time. So please... take these into suggestion and improve our game play.
