Do you find the Sims 4 challenging?
I decided to start this thread/poll because of a couple comments in another thread claiming that the game is not challenging.

Sims 4 is incredibly easy. Like so easy it’s basically a T rated children’s game in my opinion. I don’t consider any of the games inherently challenging, but 1-3 all require more input from the player to keep your sims needs met, and to make their life successful, or even just ordinary.
Sims 4 is automated to the point where Sims can basically care for themselves. They might not do it perfectly, but you will never find yourself with a dead Sim because you didn’t give them enough attention. You can leave your game for a few hours and when you return it won’t be much different. The time management aspect that required you to remain engaged with the game has been replaced with a less involved story telling design. Your job as the player isn’t necessarily to make sure your sims are successful in the fundamental ways (needs met) but instead to make their life successful in the material sense through performing a lot of leisure actions and actions that really have no purpose in the game at large other than to be visually entertaining for the player.
