The open world and create a style is part of the reason why sims 3 lagged so much.

Just read the OP so I'm sure I repeat many, but how come then my S3 game isn't lagging on my three years old computer?

I would like some tips then :)

Out of the box, it's laggy.
Open world obviously take more process power (that's a fact).
But some stuff in TS3 lacks optimization as well.

I hardly started ts3 since i have ts4. Can't stand the long loading times :(

Ever heard of NRaas mods? They saved my game's plum.

A company shouldn't rely on mods. They should fix it themselves.

I completely agree, but what are you gonna do. It's the same case with TS4, too.

TS4 is rather new. And was rushed.
And hopefully, the code is less messy (and more easily fixable), than the TS3 code. Future will tell I guess.

One of the problem there, the sims is a rather complex games, and will hardly have a way to tell the dev "if i do this and that, i get that unexpected thing to happen". Thus, some stuff don't get fixed because the devs don't know about it.
