💡 Ideas > THINGS we want to see in The Sims 4 !!!

an other thing I don't understand why they don't do it, and the Sims community begging for since DECADES is Heterocromia!
I mean I understand that at this Point it's impossible to rework the Mesh of a Sim but we've seen that they are very capeble of creating overlays (and Modder also do this since YEARS).
The Sims gave us a weird shiny Skin Overlay NOBODY ever has ask for!
Why not creating a permanent Overlay for the Eyes with that you don't even give the Players the chance to finally get the one thing that is the most requetset for CAS since ever, you also could do some fun effects like changing the shape of the catchlights (how fun would an Alien or a Fairy be with litte stars as the catchlight in the eyes or some sparkleeffects)
an other thing you could do with an overlay for the eyes is implementing blinded Eyes, we have the Scars that goes across the eye, give us the chance to also Blind that eye as well, or the chance to give Sims some form of cataracts etc. 

You could so SO much with an Overlay category for the Eyes, and it is requestet SO MUCH, so what stop you from doing this Sims Team?

📸 Scandal reporter

I think Paparazzi are too passive, I would like journalists have the power to influence the public opinion ( Reputation and Fame ) :

• Write articles about somebody's Secrets (EP15 For Rent) : Turn it into something positive or negative
• Interview people to get information about somebody
• Collect gossip
• Take compromising photos (Politician taking bribe, married celebrity cheating, ... )
• Break-in and hide spying devices

The public would trust journalists with a pristine reputation but could ignore journalists with an atrocious reputation.

Journalists obtain reputation points and higher pay for their published articles but negative articles would make more money.

Simlish Darth Vader voice + breathing sound

Greedy sims would love this trait! 

Festive craft : Balloon art (balloon animals)

Face painting would be a fun festive craft for characters with painting skill.

Charisma would be helpful too, because part of the job is the craft (balloon animals, face painting, slight of hand) and part of the job is entertaining people with the craft.

I would like to see lots for mermaids in the ocean! It could be so much cool for them to live in the ocean were they come from! Have furniture there rather than an empty oecean. It would also expand our mermaid world, which right now honestly dont have much content!

Remove the cart button. That's my main wanted feature right now.

Since we already have rocket ships and Star Wars-themed costumes in the Sims 4, wouldn't it make sense to introduce a space station zone?

My wife and I are finishing up the Stargate series. (We're in the second season of SG Universe.) I was thinking that it could be fun to have settings similar to SG Atlantis or SG Universe. Or maybe something like Firefly/Serenity.

🏭 Industrial Production

What I like in Tyler's game is the ability to assign tasks to NPC employees on objects.

• (Botanist) Gardening
• (Handler) Harvest vegetables > bring to Mixing table
• (Chemist) Mix it  > bring to Packaging table
• (Handler) Pack it and put the package on a specific shelf

In The Sims 4 the players can't tell to the NPC employees to harvest apples (gardener), cook pancakes with them (chef) and put them in the fridge or sell them.

A gameplay could be focused on the production process and sell the products to Restaurant, Retail or Small Business owners or by yourself (online shop).

These activities need a supply chain so NPC employees could be in charge of collecting the required resources  :

• Cooking
• Herbalism (Herbal Recipes)
• Floral arranging
• Robotics
• Juice fizzing
• Fabrication
• Gemology
• Nectar making
• Alchemy
• Apothecary
• If Scientist career
  • Invention
  • Serum

B&H isn't working properly for employees.

You can set up a crew and after a few shifts they dissappear and you have to re-employ them back as employees. 

For this reason all my B&H businesses are run by played households that I control and trust to get the job done. I stray away from NPC employment as much as I can.
