sims 3 or sims 4

Ultimately, the differences between the two games aren't actually very big. There's very large differences in the underlying technology, but the game built on top of it was basically the same, so we, the end users, don't have much reason to care. The main reason why you'll get people giving such die-hard defenses of the Sims 3 is partly because the Sims 4 had a very rocky launch (critical elements of the game like the ability to build pools were missing at release, but it's been fixed), and partly because people who *already* own the Sims 3 and all its expansions have *still* not been given much of a reason to look at the Sims 4, even years after release.

Sorry - going to have to take issue with this last bit. That's a very simplistic explanation as to why dedicated Sims 3 players don't like Sims 4. I could go on and on and on - but pick any thread about the differences between the two and you can read all about it ad infinitum. This explanation makes us sound like 1) we're holding a grudge and 2) that we're too emotionally undeveloped to realize content will eventually be released. Not even close to the actuality.
