But we have most of those same traits and some different ones that are more specific (We don’t have Serious for instance, but we have serious traits like Bookworm and now Proper). And if the points were in the middle of the spectrum it meant absolutely nothing. Sims on average only had a few extremes once all their points were applied.
Neat OR Sloppy
Lazy OR Active
Serious OR Playful
Shy OR Outgoing
Grouchy OR Nice
That doesn’t give more of a variety than what we have. Sims felt more similar then (to me) than they do now.
It would be like if they cut our current traits back to 10 and sims just got different combinations of any 3 of those. That doesn’t sound better to me.
I like the personality system/points better too. Actually i think a combo of personality points AND traits will give sims the dynamic they need.
Especially when some things dont make sense as a trait. Vegetarian is not a personality. That should be in a "sim diet" section not your core self.
In TS2 i think the more for example nice points you had the better it was to befriend people. You may have not had obvious special interactions like TS3 but there are like hidden scores that do affect the way your simd behave.
I think itd be best to have personality sets and something like 'quirks' instead. Small things that add more identity to your sims!
