Open Neighborhood Rather than Open World
In TS3 the entire world was open and i think this contributed to difficulty running the game. In TS4 the active lot and a portion of the neighborhood within the world is open. I'm not sure if this can...

When I send my sims to the park in The Sims 4, there are a lots of sims. If I send my sims to the park in The Sims 3, I find about 2-4 sims there.
One thing I also hated about The Sims 3 was that even though the free will was turned on, sims at home were lousy at taking care of themselves. So when I send someone out while a vampire stays home, then at one moment camera goes back home to show that the vampire has died by thirst. It was very hard to play The Sims 3 rotationally and in some cases if I did, The Sims 3 lagged more than The Sims 4, giving my sims the title "The Stone Statue of the Year". What was more annoying was the crying baby and these sims just stand around doing nothing despite of telling them to cook and take care of the baby.
Oh, and the fact that it is a open world didn't mean that I can see what does neighbors do. Even though I built a backyard, I never see them there unless my sim visits them. When my sims visits others, the first thing I see is that they are standing inside near the front door doing nothing. In The Sims 4, I had my sim visit their neighbors, who tried to cook some food but caused some fire. All of them ran outside. If The Sims 4 would have open neighborhood, then I would hear and see the neighbors die. All the time I spent creating them would have gone to waste. Don't think there would be gravestones then...
Putting preferences aside, I truely hate it when people spread total rubbish about a game I probably know better than a lot of people here. So here I go again: when you've got free will enabled, nobody at home will die of hunger or thirst. Even when they catch fire they won't necessarily die because the camera will immediately swoosh to the victim (or any fire for that matter), allowing you to do something about it. In fact it's Sims 4's system where sims at home do nothing at all (no homework, no eating, no going to bed, no nothing).
(the rest of your complaints clearly attest to a computer processor that could have been better; I can see how that would be annoying)
