I hope it adds zodiac signs. I miss that from TS3, along with favorite color and food.
I want the zodiac signs from TS2 back, I felt like the ones from 3 didn't affect my sims much at all. But I remember seeing TS2 for the very first time as a kid and seeing they'd added zodiac signs to define personality and I honestly loved it. Still do, but then for me TS2 sims still have the best personality of them all.
I agree. I find TS2's personality point system much more effective than TS3 and TS4's trait system when it comes to different behaviours of Sims. Not to mention the addition of memories and aspirations which accompany their behaviours instead of overshadowing them (which is the main problem of moodlets and emotions for many...)
True. Although, and without trying to derail the thread too much, I do think the emotions aren't all bad. The idea that creative sims are more easily and frequently inspired or that cheerful sims are happy for no reason, is technically a good one. I agree though that sometimes, the emotion-system overrides traits, especially when the emotional buffs from random, everyday things (like decor and, for a while, laundry) are more powerful than their "inborn" emotions (so to speak). I think with some good tweaking + some adding back in of TS2's system, especially the way memories worked, it could be a pretty nice system too. But well, maybe in the next game or very maybe in a patch :/
