I've been playing since the first Sims game came out but I've only been reading the Forums since shortly before The Sims 3 came out. I kinda feel like it's that way for whatever is the current game is. I feel like if you praised TS3 you got "hate" from the people who couldn't play it because of crashing issues or whatever. I really have loved The Sims 4 as well. Multitasking has changed the game. Also I love that all the worlds are intertwined. I hated in the past where you had all these worlds but you couldn't play them together. The only thing I really miss is having the ability to change the color of things. It bothers me a lot that TS4 swatches are not consistent so I end up having way to much CC just to get things the same color.
