Get to Work Needs Some Updates
I think it's time for The Sims 4 Get to Work (GTW) to get some updates. It was the first expansion pack, so it's already 4,5 years old. So, I've got some suggestions on what could be done! This woul...

@SqueamishNerd LOL. You're not asking them to add a few new cas or build items. You're asking them to completely restructure half the game! Re-design a number of existing worlds and add all new ones.
Adding "Townie jobs should be available for played sims" alone will require adding hundreds of new jobs, likely thousands of animations, game logic, etc.
And re-designing the existing worlds? What are the millions of players supposed to do with their existing worlds? We have enough bugs as it is without subjecting "saved game world conversions" into the mix.
Granted, these are GREAT ideas, but better left for The Sims 5.

To be honest, though the graphics are absolutely amazing, I have been so disappointed with Sims 4 that I doubt I'll waste money on a Sins 5. I've barely bought much of Sims 4 expansion or stuff packs. I find myself scrutinizing each new releases . Looking carefully at all the new content and reading the forums to see how others are liking it before I purchase or, much more often, choosing not to purchase.
I remember being so excited about new releases and new content with Sims 2 and 3. I would pre-order my games and wait with such exhilaration for it to arrive in the mail or rush to Game Stop so I'd be there when they opened their doors. I haven't felt any of that since the initial releases of the Sims 4 base game.
@RonneeSimmer, I would probably wait until we know more about The Sims 5 before making such a decision. While I don't expect to ever get the amount of fun and satisfacton as I got from TS2, I still have enjoyed TS3 and TS4.
However, with TS3, I had a ton of problems. It is my least favorite version of The Sims. ☹️ I still love it because it is a Sims game, but it was pretty much unplayable as time went on. Great ideas, but great ideas arent' enough if you can't play the game. :_(But, if i wrote off all future Sims titles, during TS3 , then I never would have discovered that TS4 was improved (from my perspective)! So, you might find TS5 (if and when we get TS5) to be completely different and more to your likeing. You don't have to have high expectations, just don't throw out the baby with the bathwater, so to speak! 😉
I also don't listen much to strangers' reviews, unless they have in the past tended to the same conclusions as I have. A trusted reviewer, friend, or family memeber are people I take more stock in when it comes to things like this. (Even with resturant reviews... I prefer to listen to people who know me and my likes and dislikes and not some random person.) I realize that I am a random person to you, but I'm not telling you to absolutely buy TS5 or to absolutely not buy TS5 -- I'm just suggesting that you wait and see, and also keep an open mind ! 😉
- @RonneeSimmer Well, I've played them all and I can definitely say that each one was MUCH different than the others. Sims 1 was very new and brought things noone had ever seen before. Sims 2 expanded the world by quite a bit. Added a lot of new features. Sims 3 enormously expanded the world, quite a bit TOO much because it ended up being too large for most computers to handle, even today. Sims 4 completely redesigned how sims work and interact with the whole "moods" thing. CAS was improved greatly.
Each one has good points and bad, we'll just have to keep telling EA what we want and see how it turns out.
The only way I won't purchase 5 is if the make it multiplayer. I can't stand multiplayer.
