I started with Sims 1 and I have stayed with Sims through thick and thin, spending more money than I want to think about. For me the Vampires saved the game. I wish they would go back and similarly flesh out the Aliens, Ghosts and add Witches. I also wish they would open up the game more so that we had built in tools to customize the game to individual tastes. By this last I mean create aspirations, traits, careers etc. similar to the way we can create clubs and holidays. It seems that a lot of user creative potential is already built into the game but the player can't tap into it. One example is the way they upgraded the gardening system.
