Hi
I am pretty sure many people will discuss the emotions, the buffs, the whims and the aspiration . I will limit myself to discuss 3 ideas or topics I want the sims team to mention or discuss in the future maxis streams either they decide to include them or not:
1. The work on updating older packs
We have few packs that are in need of necessary updates. I have many examples of things to improve on but this list can go long so I will only mention one: Retail system in the sims 4 is not real. Items are not really bought and there is no grocery store, pharmacy, bookstore ..etc. I also want the sims to have the items they buy as a part of their inventory system. I truly think the retail system, the apartments, the dining system needs lots of updates or to be not limited to one pack or one world. One missed opportunity was adding a sushi bar or Ramen booth restaurant in SnowyEscape. I do hope we see such updates coming and changing our sims' lives.
2. Ownership - items and money
I love how the sims 4 improved the billing system with the Eco Lifestyle . We truly need a separate wallet or a peggy bank system for the children, teen in the house and ways for them to earn money besides asking for a loan
About items, things like books, food, games, computers need to be owned and locked from other sims. Teens should react to their parents in their room and have their own door that doesn't allow everyone just to go inside. Other sims shouldn't walk around your house as if they are owners; have access to everywhere.
3. Relationships dynamics.
Family members relationships are very important to me and I would love if we can extend the circle of the family to include uncles, aunts, grandparents as well. I want more interactions among these people and more options and layers of relationships. This goes in other sims relationships .. the available options now are straight forward and boring. Unless we input imagination - nothing is there beyond what meets the eyes.
