How would you add gameplay depth?
A common complaint that I see on the boards is that the game lacks depth. I see many complaints but few ideas for how to correct this. This is just for fun so don't send me looking for other thread...

Yes to story progression. I'm currently playing with simlicy's save file and it feels very alive because it is filled with young families which is what I am playing with. However as my family grows eventually the world will begin to feel empty because the kids from these other families won't get married and get careers and have more kids. Story progression would add so much. I know I can do this with a nod but I currently don't play with mods.
I think the reason we don't have open worlds may have to do with sim population. One of the complaints with the sims 3 was that you would go places and they would be empty. With the sims 4 when we go to a new place a bunch of sims load in with us. If I have to choose I would rather have the populated lots. More stuff in the open parts of the world would be nice. Again I know I can achieve this with a mod.
All the ideas for little interactions and family things to do together would be great additions. Being able to cook together or playing a sport. Having more things to do in big empty spaces like flying kites of having a picnic...
100% agree on some sort of chemistry system. Love the idea on better trait integration. I wish we could assign more traits...
I appreciate the responses. My intention was not to complain but to just come up with ways to improve a game I love playing and have played half my life(sims 1-4). I appreciate that we have kept it positive and constructive.
