Is The Sims too childish now? Teen & Adult players have been forgotten

I wouldn't say it's too childish, but it does lack the depth and certain nuances from past series imo. I love to be imaginative and make up stories as I go, but I feel like The Sims 4 is almost too limited in that regard involving interactions. It's great for players who are into leveling up and maxing out skills and careers, but I do sometimes struggle to feel "connected" to my Sims.
