I’m not too bothered by only having three “choosable” traits (and there’s also the bonus trait that you get when you choose an aspiration). If you raise a Sim from birth, they get the opportunity to earn far more than just three, particularly if you play on the long lifespan or with aging off which I know is popular with Simmers. For example, with one of my Sims who is now a YA and was born in-game, she earned Top Notch Toddler, all four child aspiration traits and all five character value traits, in addition to her three “chosen” traits. So that’s 13 traits in total, plus she also has Stoves and Grills Master from the rewards store making 14 traits. That’s double the maximum you can earn in Sims 3 (with the five traits you get as an adult, plus the two potential extra from university). This was in a save where I have everyone on the long lifespan, but even with the normal setting you can earn a fair number.
Of course, this is just what *I* think, and I know others are frustrated by only being allowed to pick three traits in CAS. I do find it odd that “vegetarian” is a personality trait, but I never play with it.
My sims usually have tons of those traits, but I feel like they are more like perks than actual traits. They add almost nothing to personalities, except for Parenthood ones, these are fun.
So yes, I would love more trait slots. I think 5 would be enough, but we also need more traits! Sims 4 is lacking here.
