I want Sims to react appropriately to certain situations. I cheated on Katrina Caliente right in front of her and she didn’t even bat an eye. Yeah our relationship bar went down but nothing happened. This was not the case in previous games where Sims would run up to you and slap the living daylights out of you for cheating.
The emotion system needs to be severely improved. If a sim they know dies, they need to be sad. For like days. And they need to be crying over their death, even after they die. But because of the moodlet system the Sims can switch between several emotions in the matter of minutes. Honestly I think the only way to fix emotions is to get rid of moodlets. Or at least make it so moodlets don’t directly impact your emotional state.
Traits need to be revamped as well. As it is now, traits only give your sims special social interactions (which big whoop because all the social interactions are about the same) and some give you special abilities like being a kleptomaniac let’s you steal. None of the traits influence a Sims automatic behavior and mannerisms. Except for maybe the Erratic trait because they talk to themselves and have mood swings but even this trait can be improved upon significantly. A neat sim should be cleaning all the time. Even with objects that don’t need to be cleaned. Slobs should be leaving messes everywhere. My active sims rarely workout on their own accord. Some traits I don’t even know what they do like Cheerful, goofball, evil, lazy, clumsy. There’s literally nothing special about most of the traits.
I don’t care what kind of packs we get at this point as long as it’s not something stupid like Star Wars. What I would like to get eventually though;
- a farming expansion with horses and other livestock
- A mountain ski/snowboard resort vacation pack
- Werewolves game pack
- Fairies game pack
- A romance pack
- World adventures pack
- A generations pack
There’s a whole lot of things I would like to see come to the Sims 4. I have my own thread listing what I want: https://forums.thesims.com/en_US/discussion/967291/sims-4-list-of-features-the-game-needs/p1
But if the top three game overhauls don’t come to the Sims 4 or even the Sims 5, then the series will never live up to its full potential and greatness that it once had.
