Do you want story progression?
It's a topic people talk about a lot so a poll would be a good way to see the general thoughts about it.

I feel about no SP like others feel about yes SP. It’s spoiling the experience, I don’t feel like my sims are living in an actual world (that includes Sims 3 after they got rid of it and before I discovered mastercontroller). This game is only good with no SP when you like playing rotational. Not everyone does. If you’d be angry when they’d implement SP, maybe you can understand a little how those who do want SP feel without it.
...But it would change the game I have invested in the beginning. It brought me back into the Sims after the Sims 3 where I felt left out. One of the reasons I got into Sims 4 was because it did NOT have SP.
If you’re upset by lack of SP, then you would need to consider those of us who do not always want forced SP, too. It’s a never ending circle.
It goes both ways, and the best way to appease both sides is to provide options and toggles.
ETA: We can only hope the devs can do better job with SP than they did with Sim 3 and even better than the sims’ emotions and whims AI in Sims 4....
I consider those (which is why a toggle is best), but I have a feeling people consider no SP the way it should be because ‘you rule’. That I fail to see, because for me it’s so far off reality that I’d even go as far as calling it a flaw in the life simulation concept. Again, when you like to play rotational, you can make sure the whole neighborhood develops. But when you don’t (like me), there’s no real society.
I don’t really understand what people mean when they say they were left out in Sims 3. The game has a toggle. Apparently it didn’t work in the beginning of the game but they fixed that at one point. Plus in 2012 they removed every autonomous marrying and getting babies all together. Without NRaas SP towns die out in Sims 3 as well.
