Kind of annoyed at the scared emotion

I love TS4. But I think many would agree that one of its biggest flaws is the fact that too much emphasis has been put on emotions and most traits have no real impact on how a Sim acts and reacts in game. A big trait overhaul would be great, but I don't know how realistic that is at this point. That's why I was and am still excited about the addition of the scared/terrified emotion. It really impacts your gameplay in a way that cannot as easily be overpowered by a a couple of nice paintings and a potted plant in your Sims' vicinity. As an example, yesterday I was playing a Paranormal Investigator and she had an Expert gig at the house of the Roswell family. I switched to another household (living in a penthouse in San Myshuno) the next day and it happened that one of the Sims in the household was friends with Meredith Roswell. As is the case with penthouses, she had friends showing up all day and Meredith was the 3rd one to stop by. Since Meredith was still in recovery from the events of the night, she arrived at the house terrified and started screaming at everyone. I could go into more detail, but at some point I just had 5 Sims taking turns running around like headless chickens and cowering in fear. It was unexpected, completely interrupted what I had planned for that day ... and it was entertaining and awesome. These events you can't schedule and can't plan for make the game more interesting and lifelike to me. So after playing several saves and households since this emotion was introduced I can decidedly say that I don't want them to change anything about it.

By the way, you can place the 'Defender Wall Light' close to your Sim childrens' bed and they won't be disturbed by the monster under the bed. Just in case this is news to anyone.
