Sims 4 List of Features the Game needs
This is just a list of features that I want to see implemented in the game before the Sims 4 ends. I made a similar list a couple years ago and surprisingly not a lot was actually included in the past...
Forum Discussion
Layered clothing - I went into detail on the packs thread
Underwater basements - I'd really like to be able to have a basement bar where you can watch fish swim by. It'd also be nice to be able to make a home where you can have a watery passage through and connect to another side further out through a basement would be nice
Estates - Even if you only allow a 64x64 grid for a home, perhaps allow some attached lots to all be owned and traveled between. Build a big mansion and have a large garden out back - or perhaps a waterfront lot with a non-waterfront lot.
Split level homes - I've been wanting to do this for awhile. The best I've seen is a celebrity home in Sims 3 with a walkout basement that I could not replicate.
Custom apartment lots - (let me design my own apartment highrise, building from some high level. It should also allow for more than 4 levels as it can treat lower floors as basement levels.
Vampiric Feeding - you should be able to force feed on unwilling sims when powers fail using strength as a measure and even drain sims outright, killing them.
Shop homes - run a storefront out of your home rather than coming and going.
Martial arts - bring this back from Sims 3.
World Designer Tool - While the Sims 3 one was never great and needed a physical game copy to work - for unknown reasons - being able to create your own worlds would be extremely useful.
Elevators - we had both standard and futuristic elevators in Sims 3 with expansions, but all we have in 4 is one usable in apartments that can only access one floor.
Custom textures - I'm not sure why this was taken out of Sims 4 - maybe it's a resource issue - but being able to easily slap on textures to garments or walls would certainly be helpful. If it can be done safely, please do it.
Pool/Billiards - You already have the animations - quick add.
Easy Time Dilation - let me pick how long things take - large homes are easier in this game to get through to get to work/school on time, but being able to take things slower so it feels more immersive would be great.
More graduated aging phases - I'm thinking that the phases between kid and teen should have steps within - you grow a little taller every year until you reach the next life stage. Either that or at least add a tween stage.
