Incoherent/unpractical things

Here's a list of things that doesn't make sense in the game to me anymore, given the content we've been receiving lately, it's clear that those things turns the game icoherent and sometimes give us no freedom, even breaking immersion.

• Life state slot it's hidden for human sims and we can't switch the traits in a alredy created occult sim. ✅

• Can't create ghosts (and skeletons) in CAS even knowing that all we need is a death cause trait. (Base) ✅


• Can't wear female swimsuit as tops like the Pride and Realm Of Magic ones. (Base)


• Masculine clothes only earns a breast shadow in feminine frames, but female clothes keeps it in masculine frames. (Base)


• Having to check the door for visitors/services everytime, cause we don't have a notification for their arrival. (Base)


• Invited sims entering our house without permission or house key. (Base)


• "Welcome wagon" starts without our consentiment, the neighbors don't even know if someone's home. (Base)


• Fear interactions and running scared being so overreactive and not stricted to "Terrified" emotion. (Base)


• Social events don't have a "free entry" option. (Base)

• Sims can't refuse a promotion. (Base)


• Some level descriptions of entertainer career makes it look more about comedy than general entertainment. (Base)


• Piano skill not included in entertainer career's promotion tasks. (Base)


• Pools increasing hygiene. (Base)


• Parents unable to invite their child's friends to their birthday party, because they don't know them. (Base)


• Aunt, uncle, cousin and grandparents options not available for selection in CAS. (Base)


• Sims do not react with animations when getting moodlets. (Base)


• Human mixed skin color not shared with aliens and vice versa. (Get to Work)


• Can't delete or link alien's disguise. (Get to Work)


• Can't go to the Hospital as patient like NPCs in the medical career. (Get to Work)


• Unable to send a sim alone to club meetings. (Get Together)


• Cancel holidays and getting a sad moodlet. (Seasons)


• No "turn off" option for surprise holiday generation. (Seasons)


• No notifications for Sulani festivals. (Island Living)


• Skeletons unable to wear clothes like Bonehilda and face paint/hair/wigs like mexican skeletons do. (Jungle Adventures)

• Spellcasters being occults but not having an occult form. (Realm of Magic)

• Collectible pets/familiars not having interactions like rodents does. (Base, Get to Work, Outdoor Retreat, Realm of Magic)

• Occults using disguise while being ghosts. (Get to Work, Vampires, Island Living, Werewolves)


• Ghosts, Aliens, Merfolk and Werewolves unable to access Vampires' details, like spellcasters do. (Get to Work, Vampires, Island Living & Werewolves) ✅

Do you guys have any other complaint like these?

    Oh yes! I'd wish spellcasters had an occult form (the idea they are basically like an alien in the sense they try to blend in with humans, but when amongst their own kind dress more occult (like in Bewitched)), option refuse career promotion, turn off surprise holidays (I can't stand these), and extended family assignments (I sometimes create a placeholder Sim to link get the extended family option, then delete the placeholder, it is annoying workaround).

    I am also annoyed even with fears/wants disabled, that I keep getting (mostly since AA) buy an informative moment trait from rewards store. Plus that informative moment traits are in a nested table with an indent. 

    That Custom Venues are treated as Getaways (getting sentiments, moodlets and interactions), when not on a Getaway. That Custom Venues disable certain Lot Traits. And NPCs inappropriately dress on lots.

    Pools give very little hygiene and coffee while giving a little energy does so at a severe penalty to bladder so you would likely favor something more efficient such as a shower.

    Ponds and fishing spots are often too shallow for swimming..
