Do you like Location based Aspirations?

I don't like these tutorial-esque aspirations. It takes the fun out of exploring for me.

I like the trait that comes with the location aspirations, Home Turf. But other than matching the starting trait to my sims' personalies and farming some of the lower tiers for points when it is convenient, I do not play with aspirations (Yes, I miss out on the reward traits, but I just can't be bothered with the restricting structure.). For point farming the location aspirations are pretty good, except for the San Myshuno one that requires giving a key to a neighbor.

They are some of the better aspirations for the most part, which is not saying much for them though because most are pretty terrible.

I mainly hate it that it's all too easy and it has switched from being a life goal to just a check mark and you can complete all of them if you want to.

I rather have harder to achieve goals and have it affect the Sim's personality and whims more.

To me the perfect thing would be if a life goal of a sim is a more continuous thing.

Like you have the end goal which gives a crazy amount of lifetime happiness points, but they also get a few things that gives them more happiness points than other sims, stuff they could always do.
Like for example the serial romantic getting extra happiness points every time they woohoo and a stronger buff afterwards, maybe even more so when it is with a new conquest they have not woohood with before.
Or the super star athlete getting extra happiness points whenever their team wins.
Or the mage whenever they win another duel.
It would be a short list of things you never have to lock in as a wish or whim or such, but what's always there.

But as a counter to that, each life goal should come with greater fear of setbacks keeping them from their life goal.
Like that serial romantic getting rejected for woohoo would hit them harder.

I suppose it would all be more of a life style.

I disabled lifestyles myself because I can't control that, and its handled poorly in game. Should be in CAS and should not change based on what Sims do.

They're fine. The one thing I think they could improve on for all aspirations is that I wish each one offered a very unique reward that you can only get from completing that specific aspiration. All of the location-based aspirations - at least from my experience - have rewards that I can get from doing other, easier things in the game. This is another form of recycling that makes the game frustrating. Getting the Laid-Back trait is the same thing as using points to buy Carefree for my sim - so why would I be motivated to complete the Beach Life aspiration? Would've been better to maybe unlock a new location (maybe go behind the waterfall or into the cave and be able to get new collectables) or never get tired when doing Island Living activities or going to lots in Sulani.

This is why I'm mostly indifferent - I've had sims complete these aspirations but mostly because they were done with a more fruitful aspiration. I'd play them more if they offered something truly special.

Most of them are too easy and feel like tutorials. Some location based aspiration goals can be fun to complete.

I quite like the aspirations generally so 'sometimes' for me. The location based ones I never touched. I only have city living that gives a location based aspiration and I have never given it to one sim.

The game desperately needs new aspirations (and more traits), but they need to be relevant for all worlds, not just one

I like the aspirations - location based ones are completely pointless, imo.

I'm not a fan of the location based aspirations but then that's because I prefer aspirations to be more meaningful and not easily achieved.

I like most of the aspirations; especially the cool Mt. K athletic/location,
Vampire/Spellcaster Knowledge/Outdoor & JTB Star Wars. B) :p

My Sims have no aspirations, no morals and no hope

I like the idea well enough. People do have goals to live in specific places. I'm not going to use it unless I really want to play in that place, though.
