Isn't this a smart decision from a business perspective, though? Only a limited amount of people would have a high-end computer. So I don't really have an opinion on loading screens one way or another before I get to play the pack, but it doesn't seem to me like it makes sense to make a game that only a small number of people would be able to run properly. Also, if you have a high-end pc, your game should load extremely quickly anyway.
I just feel like at a certain point, they should be able to compromise a bit. Maybe just make the game open neighborhood rather than open world, because how far does that excuse go? I'm sure, if they really wanted to, they could also make it so every room requires a loading screen, that way they could have an even further reach, but also making each room a different loading screen is an objectively bad idea.
A game can't run on every computer ever, and if catering to such low end machines restricts gameplay and means removing features, maybe they shouldn't cater to low end machines then.
My main issue is that loading screens, however fast, are still a chore to go through. They just break up the gameplay and make it impossible to control multiple sims in different locations.
