Why are the whims in Sims 4 so repetitive and shallow? I constantly get the "Cook pet food" or "Buy a pet ball" or "Buy a swimming pool at least 1X1" Sims 3's whims system was more in depth and made sense. There was a feeling of progression and they were well thought out. These are just nonsensical most of the time and seem to have no rhyme or reason. Who else agrees??
I actually would be quiet happy if they did away with them completely in the next game. I don't use them, never did in the sims 3 either. But having said that if they did what they did with aspirations in the sims 2 where you basically had to complete your sims wants or the sim goes crazy then id love that! Plus the aspiration reward objects in the sims 2 were the best!
Not even for Lifetime reward points?

Yeah, I don't bother looking at whims at all. They're a useless gameplay feature, unlike TS3 and especially TS2, where it felt more closely designed into the core gameplay.
In TS2, whims were called wants, and were very relevant to your Sim's personality, surroundings, financial standing, social standing, etc. You had to keep up after their wants, otherwise they'd get depressed. They'd change every day, numerous times per day. The fear system was the opposite of this system, and obviously had various things your Sim had to be sure to avoid. The Sims 3 got rid of fears, made a new system called wants, which was very similar to TS2, except more optional. The rewards felt more useful, too.
Akctuallllly, they're called Wishes in TS3.
