Update with fears is terrible

I started playing again for the first time in a couple years and the fears make the game unplayable especially on console. Which I know could be fixed by just using mods on a computer, but I already have the Xbox and can't afford a gaming pc! So I deleted it off my Xbox (which is fine w me the game is massive and takes up 75% of the space on my console) after playing it for an accumulative 3 hours MAYBE. My sim gets mad every second of the day and if it's not that, she's sad or tense. Then she can't do anything she "wants" to do because she's mad/tense/sad. Causing a loop of me fixing her stank **bleep** attitude for the WHOLE DAY. Every single day of gameplay is my sim just going to bed mad waking up tense then progressively getting more mad, going to work coming home mad not being able to do anything gameplay wise besides calm myself down in the mirror and take a cold shower. My house might as well be all showers and mirrors bc that's all I do. Impossible to actually have fun playing the game like I used to because I can't even skill up bc she won't even read a **bleep** book bc she's so tense from being alive for 4 second and not filling every single one of her dreams. So frustrating because I've been playing for years and now I'm completely uninterested in all of it. Lmk when they remove this annoyance bc then it'll actually be fun to play again.

  • 10006698​ I play with Wants and Fears off on Xbox as I found it too disruptive. It's in Game Options>Gameplay>Show Wants & Fears then just uncheck the box.

  • You can turn off Wants and Fears in the gameplay settings, if you do not wish to use this feature in the game.
