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.
There were more than the extremes with personality points. There was a middle dynamic too to them.
I love the idea of combining them @StrawberryYogurt. It would bring the best of both worlds. I love brain storming threads like this and bouncing off ideas with my fellow Simmers. It gives me that warm hugs feels. I feel like there are far too many positive only traits focused on challenges. I kind of miss the goofy and negative ones. Technophobe and hydrophobe were fun traits. Some other fun Sims 3 ones and was interesting reading over some of the removed traits too here such as good at massages, likes giving hugs, hates reading, and worrywart:
