Pros & Cons :
- Definitely everything we do have a lot more depth into it (Playing on real time isn't a pain like any previous Sims game). While The You Rule ! part is true, it's kinda based with the devs's rule, which is strictly limited.
- The world around you are reacting to what you do (Not in most cases, but when I kissed in public, some people reacted. Which is good). But at times, these reactions also felt like it's exaggerated/too much (feels like the only thing they do is watching me).
- Social interaction is a lot wider and pretty detailed. But is too cluttered (ex. 10+ Give/Ask Massage, Debate 10+ skills, Enthuse 5+ things, all on friendly socials).
-The world has a nice ambiance to it, but feels empty (not about closed neighborhood).
Cons Only :
- Almost all AI Sims are either a Yes being or rude/doesn't have manners/don't seem to understand the word 'privacy' means. Oh, and also a coward (text messages (with a lot more 's' behind it)). They invite you to places, but never want to take the bills. No hospitality. They don't want us to use their homes like ours (w/o Rewards), and yet they use ours like it's their own place to begin with.
- Pet owners are heartless. They don't take care of their pets, yet crumbled when they got sick (and surprised).
- The longer you play, the faster you'll realize that the world (outside a predetermined lot) is a bit static, the only difference is the 3D models (Sims itself). Everyone else has the same path and destination. And the world is centered around you. There is no equality. What the other sims said or do, doesn't have any lasting impact on you and can be overridden in every way imaginable. (This should be an option, not a standard).
- You (as the player) will also realize that when not controlled, almost all sims suffer from anxiety and major depression. Probably ADHD too. Even renowned professionals. Even doctors.
I think that's sums pretty much everything I wanted to say (Everything else is kinda on the feedback thread so I don't feel like typing it again here will be allowed).
