Why does the Sims 4 suck so much?
Product: The Sims 4 Platform:PC I want to talk about something you don't mention above: How accessible is the current experience? It's useless to me Summarize what in the product is difficult to...

@Dequan_Gambrell, many of the things you want in the game actually are in the game if you bother to get the Expansion Packs! So, The Sims 4 does have :
family trees
swing sets
illnesses
hospitals
bugs/rodents
ghosts
different elevations
way more than 3 books!!!
many empty lots in New Crest (that is all New Crest is!)
the ability to go to work with your Sims in 4 different careers (Police Detective, Doctor, Scientist, and Veterinarian)
and even decorative cars (just enlarge the toy/model cars with keyboard commands)
😉
And you don't have a Comfort Need anymore because this is taken care of with moodlets. Get enough bad moodlets and your Sims will be uncomfortable, and you will need to find ways to fix their uncomfortable mood. It isn't in the need panel, just in the mood panel! 😎
As for some of the other things you requested such as the color wheel (Create A STyle/CASt) that was left out because it ground many people's games to a halt! 😮 What is the use of a tool (no matter how wonderful it is) if you can't play your game because of it. 😞 The same goes for why they didn't make TS4 with an open world like they tried out in TS3. Great in theory, but almost unworkable for a great many people in reality.
If you prefer TS3, then you are free to play that to your heart's content! 🙂
Finally, it is against the rules here to type in all caps because it is viewed as shouting. I understand your passion on this issue, but you catch more flies with honey than with vinegar! 😉
Happy Simming!
The issues with sims 4 are shocking, sims 3 was great, the way the set up was, the layout of worlds, tasks, the game was great, so why have the ruined sims 4 by changing camera angles, the skills, the layouts, its a joke.
I cannot use sims 3 correctly because for some reason my gaming pc plays sims 4 perfect, but now glitches with sims 3, in game.
I love sims 3, the way you can change colours of furniture etc, all the had to do was update it. basically add more to sims 3 because it was so good. but instead, what a huge let down and a waste of money.
Alittle off Topic but: Showtime + Island Paradise + No Mods = Broken Sims 3 ime.
Back on topic: Sims 4 isn't meant to compete with Sims 3, nor improve upon it. It is a separate game, and comparing it to Sims 3 is unfair. Btw, there's an option to use Sims 3 Camera Controls in the Options menu if you preferred those controls. I for one, think Island Paradise Ruined Sims 3, because showtime slowed it down, but Island Paradise was like looking at a slideshow, I eventually had to resort to mods to get the Sims 3 running in a good order. Sims 4 learned from some of the mistakes the Sims 3 made, but not all of them (f.e. you don't (to the best of my knowledge) have outdoor dog houses, which shouldn't be a big deal to add))
@cherrybomb374 If you'd like to troubleshoot your Sims 3 issues, feel free to post in the Sims 3 PC tech section:

It would be helpful to include a dxdiag, since that's the first thing I'd ask for anyway. Here's how to run one:

Sims 3 runs great on my computer, and that's true for many of us still playing. That doesn't mean it can or will run well on your system, just that it's not necessarily a lost cause.

Does mine too, but I have to use mods to make it work with any degree of performance. I mean, error trap is a godsend, i just wish it didn't have a dependency on a larger reaching mod.
