I don't think they will redo the characters that much, I think the sims4 will still be an alternate universe.

Here is what I'm hoping for though.

• Updated Hot and Cold weather outfits.
  
• Updated Likes/Dislikes. Make it so Tina Tinker likes handiness for example.
  
• Added Sentiments for their backstories. Maybe they should add more backstories so they are a bit more interesting.
  
• Correct relationships. Johny Zest should be related to the Landgraabs for example and he should probably not be on good terms with them.
  

I disagree about having added sentiments to sims backstories. That’s like the Memory system in “The Sims 2”, which I hated because it made me feel like I have no control over my sims and their lives. But I agree about having the relationships be correct when it comes to how the premade sims love, like or dislike each other. But I like how “The Sims 4” lets me play the way I want, without the annoying Memories system.

I see, I don't know how memories worked in the sims 2, but I think sentiments go away over time in the sims 4 for both played and unplayed sims.

Memories are events that happen in a sim’s life, good or bad. The Memories system is a system where you can see all the events that happened in that sim’s life when you play him or her. The memories system applies to all sims. I founded it annoying because I wanted to play “The Sims 2” game without all the events that my sims experience being listed in the game whenever I play with my sims.

TS2 memories recorded everything that happenend. Maybe for TS4 they could record just milestones like got married, got divorced, had baby, first kiss, first date with partner, death of relatives and friends, graduation, first job, etc. They could also make them like sentiments, and make some of them fade over time and in old age.

just make it like ts2 memories = records certain events by default with cute icons

skip the cockroach though :sweat_smile:

and let players delete memories they don't want to keep and also let us add custom memories of our own

and add back the assign emotion thing it was nice until they for some reason removed it

and add option to assign screenshot to a particular memory if player wishes to

+ it would be nice if you could set sentiments as memory so they wouldn't fade over time like they normally do
