Feedback/suggestions For The Sims 4
Hello! So I've been playing The Sims 4 on my Mac for a while now, a bit after it came out, and I currently own every expansion pack and stuff pack. I am such a huge fan, but I think, especially with...

@Psychotps , although I agree that TS3 would be much better if they fixed the performance issues, I still wouldn't call it a perfect game for me. Even at the start of TS3 before the performance tanked, I was still bored compared to the early stages of TS2. (I am using bored relatively speaking, since as a Sims game it was still fun, but I felt that TS3 took a big step back in terms of gameplay compared to TS2. It's saving grace was the CASt color/pattern wheel feature! If it wasn't for that, I would have abandoned it and gone back to TS2. )
I actually hated leaving the house in TS3 (mostly due to the performance issues which were worse for me when traveling) but also because most of the time when traveling to a public lot, there were no other Sims to interact with!😢 So, unless I was collecting bugs and seeds or fishing, there was little reason to venture out. (I disliked buying the recipes) and the many of the shopping locations were rabbit holes, so why not just stay home. But then again, I enjoy family play! I did really love the Generations EP for TS3 , though, for that very reason! 💗
To me a perfect game is TS2 gameplay, with TS3 customization, and TS4 graphics and multi-tasking! (And a few more features from each such as TS3 ability to play as the pet, and TS4 ability to live-drag objects like plates! ). TS2 gameplay was really deep and challenging, so for me the perfect game would have to have its gameplay!!!
And not to leave TS1 out in the cold, I would have TS1 and TS2 music especially for Build Mode, Buy Mode, and CAS. And Superstar and Makin' Magic because those packs were terrific! 🥳
@PugLove888 Oh geez, that's what they should do.
Superstar from Sims 1 was great. You know there's nowhere that has the female versions of the superstar songs? They were so good but I could never record them at the time. I no longer have the game so I can't record them.
I really liked the junk car build/repair thing from Sims 2. Buy a junker and work on it, make it driveable and then use it to go to work and such.
Sims 3's gameplay was much more familiar to me as I played it the longest. Sims 2 was too restricted for my style of gameplay. Same as Sims 1. Maybe it was due to Nraas in 3 that opened up everything to my own customization.
Sims 4 changed things too much. The whole "emotions" thing made it a lot different. You spend so much time trying to get into the right "emotion", it takes away from gameplay. You need to get "energized" before you can work out, you need to get "focused" before going to work, you need to get "inspired" before cooking, writing, or painting... etc. You spend so much time managing "emotions" that nothing else gets done.
