I think as long as some of the features are limited (like not being able to have a home business or being able to cook at your own restaurants, etc), and the Sims AI is lackluster (reactions, inconsistent traits, etc), then for me Sims 4 will always be a limited Sims game.
I still love playing it, but that doesn’t make me blind to the lack of content and certain features.
However, I still want Sims 4 to get some more content before we move on. Hopefully in that time, Sims 5 will have taken feedback and make improvements.
But I am still enjoying the game regardless (none of the Sims games are perfect), and I still want some more content. I want the Company to at least make up for their mistakes and keep supporting us who have invested in this iteration, just for a little bit while we wait for the next one.
(And yes, I will keep buying Sims 4 content, if I like it. Don’t bother shaming me for that. It’s a free country.)
There was no need for your last comment. I love The Sims and it's franchise. It's helped me learn a lot of things I would have thought I would never learn. Even about how my pc works and or what all those zeros and ones mean. It's been a great ride in this series. The Sims series has been a great tool and learning experience in so many areas of why we did this or that, or why we used a program or a different program or why we researched this or that, I can't think of another series that might have inspired people to branch out and find out things about things they would normally have no interest about. TS series as a whole has a lot to be proud about. It bothers me when they mock their own previous games, because they really have no idea how those games inspired people to branch out and learn and do things or learn about technology they had no idea they were inspiring. And I don't mean gaming technolgy as the only thing people learned to do because of the series and because of the mother ofnecessityinvention.
I don't see the references to past games as mocking -- I see them more as an homage. I've often wondered if the whim to build a pool at least 1x1 is a veiled reference to the late Skip Broke, husband of Brandi and father to Dustin, Beau and a Broke To Be, who mysteriously drowned in a 1x1 pool back in Sims 2.
