These console lag spikes are getting ridiculous now, I play on a series x so I dont understand why the game lags and stutters like this. I'm not even saying this to be dramatic, it's making the game unplayable!! The lag spikes are getting worse and worse, you used to be able to do things like being up the options menu to get the lag to go away but even that doesn't work anymore. It's so bad. Is this being fixed any time soon? I don't understand why this game isn't optimised for next gen consoles. If they are going to keep adding packs to console then they need to do something about this lag.

Yeah that's really bad, I noticed that too! I switched to pc recently and the lag isn't console specific, its the actual game itself. So I don't think that it will ever get fixed. I'm starting to think that its just an unfortunate side effect of the game being so old and there being so much DLC
I think the culprit here is the memory handling and usage in the sims 4,
since the XBox Series S has a SSD drive.
But I have read, that the lag spikes is the "sims culling process":

of the sims and general cleanup of the game, but I still wonder if that is the cause?
It works in both live and building modes, too.
