I don't think traits do anything to the personality of the sims. They all act the same. The only thing traits do is affect the whims and moods....like creative sims get inspired more easily.

There needs to be something much deeper that affects them more. They need an attraction system. A zodiac system. As @LosaruTaiyo said, likes and dislikes. They need to react better to the world around them. They need a LOT to give them "personality" of their own.

ETA: Basically, I want Sims 2 sims in the Sims 4 world. Is that too much to ask for?

This right here!!! I miss the whole zodiac sign aspect of the game. Not to mention the ability to put two sims together with completely non-compatible traits and just watch the cookie really crumble.

I want that too. But unfortunately, in the sims 4, nothing means anything. Except for pretty backdrops. Sims don't act the way you want them to based on the traits that are available. Mean, hot-headed sims want to share in the hug-fest party just like loners do.

I don't agree with this either. I'm a loner but I'll participate in a hug fest with people I know.. and sometimes in the spirit of things people I don't. I've had mean-spirited relatives and they would also participate in a hug fest during a family outing or other social gathering. They'd still be mean though about all sorts of things... it just gets accepted and sometimes their good side evens things out. I mean if you had a parent that's mean now and then, you don't discount everything else about them. As for Hot-headed.. I kind of think of these as some passionate types I've known, they would participate in a hug fest, but if you say something to set them off ... bammo!
