Is the Sims 4 criticism justified?

For me, it definitely is but I feel like we need to be constructive about our feedback and not be aggressive towards each other or the SimGuru’s.

Whether you like TS4 or not, we definitely get less value for our money than in previous iterations. It’s a fact. We get less content now in packs and the base game, than we ever have done.

The gameplay is deeply shallow in TS4, I feel like whatever pack they add, won’t make a difference cause the fundamental core/ engine of the Sims 4 design is flawed.

It’s visually a huge step up in the art style and the graphics but apart from that, the gameplay is sorely lacking for me. The build and buy mice is also the best it’s been but The Sims is supposed to be a LIFE SIMULATION game and as well as the chronic lack of depth, we’re also missing representation and key ‘family, everyday, realism gameplay’ to warrant it holding that title.
  • I have no sympathy for the sims team at all as to how, this game is turning out throughout the 6 years. Yeah, the criticism is heavily justified.
