The dead-end job fear is really starting to annoy me. I started a new save for the High School patch, even waited over a week because of people saying there was a bug with aging. So far the two households I've played both have this fear. They are in a job that fits their aspiration and their likes. One is athletic, loves being active, has the bodybuilder aspiration and is in the athletic career. He gets promoted and this fear pops up. It makes no sense to me. The other loves music, is in the entertainer career, gets promoted and the dead end job fear pops up again. I'm wondering if this will be the case for every household. I prefer to play want/whim based and, while the whims were pretty lacking and I ended up getting mods to add to them, that was much better than the wants/fears system that doesn't seem to be based on anything. Or at least it doesn't seem to be based on sim personality/traits or experiences. I think I'll have to turn it off, which really sucks.
One of my sims also keeps getting the fear of being cheated on and it doesn't seem to be based on anything either. I wish he had been cheated on first and then developed the fear, it feels out of nowhere.
I wish I could find a way to get whims back. Lately I haven't been feeling like playing the Sims 4. I wish I had avoided updating my game, though that would mean playing offline indefinitely. I've been a simmer since the original sims game that started it all. Normally I'd have to force myself not to play, now I struggle to convince myself to play.
