If we compare our Sims game to real life. In real life we have many different grills, all of Our Sims 4 grills look different and match different decor. The couches in Sims 4 do not look alike at all they match different decor and are inclusive of the pack they come with. That way the Sims 4 furniture can match different styles from all over the world. Also the same is true for our dining tables, dining chairs, and any other furniture in the Sims 4. Its all kinds of furniture just like when you shop real life.
This is true for all sims games. There are lots of items and the items tend to match a packs theme. Here's the thing for me though, ts2 let you choose things like bed frames or the wood in seating separate from the blankets/upholstery, Ts3 had CaSt ts4 does neither of those tings.
About recycling animations, Define Animation...animation
a dynamic visual medium produced from static drawings, models, or objects posed in a series of incremental movements that are then rapidly sequenced to give the illusion of lifelike motion. the process of preparing such animation, as for films, cartoons, video games, etc.
So the reason for animation in the Sims games is to mimic real life. What if you as a person could not repeat any animations you did just the day before but must come up with new ones. so instead of you sleeping, you must find a new way to sleep. perhaps hanging upside down the next night since you are not allowed to repeat any animations.
And what about the eating animation, should they change and now use their feet to eat or now add the food to their nose no. :#
Remember this is a game of real life.
When you go to a ball game do they always have the same type food stands, sure they do its life. Maybe a surprise to some but if you go to a different country they have couches, chairs, stoves and food stands that do not even come from other countries. Why because that's inclusive of humans and everyday living. Also, they use the same animations over and over as all humans do.
I think simtrippy covered this above but what you are talking about here is not at all what is meant.
Animation recycling is if playing with the ball pit looks the same as playing with building blocks which looks the same as playing in a bubble bath. These are different actions so it would be nice to see different animations. We don't need different actions for doing the same type of action like eating or sleeping.
Remember in our older sims games if it was a crowded room you could not get through, but now we can squeeze through and go sit on the couch. That's part of our New animations.
Not really. I remember two sims going through doors at the same time of using stairs at the same time would cause issues at times, but even by ts3 that was largely reduced. Never once did I have an issue with having sims navigate rooms once they were in them. Now to be fair that might just be build style that I use or that a crowded room for me has less sims in it. Also since you brought it up before irl when a room is crowded it is in fact quite difficult to squeeze through it and get in or out of it.
I will agree ts4 is much better by being faster, but the other games were still more than capable of functioning in a crowded room.
Our toddlers in Sims 4 are so cute and with so many true to life hugs and animations it truly touches your heart.
That is an opinion. I only mention it because of your ending statement.
In Sims 4 we are not stuck to one pattern or one color or texture. example: I have a home in Sims 4 its full of furniture.
We can click to build mode and without changing, let's start with the floor texture we can recycle through all different floor textures we may want to see on that floor from brick to carpet to grass. almost endless possibilities. as many textures we have, we can change without removing it. and also colors. We can click on the roof of the home and try all of the roof textures, without removing the roof that's there. Is that not the same, sure it is not. It's better.
We can repeat this with our furniture trying out all the textures of that object. changing textures Sims 3 way and Sims medieval way is Old School. not a put down its part of our Sims games, just older.
Everything you said about ts4 you can do in ts3 (I haven't tested building in ts2 in a while) Seriously everything you mentioned here is a feature in ts3 build mode except that ts3 had CaSt which meant you could have any texture you wanted in any color you wanted as well.
What about our Sims in CAS we can change their skin tone, we can remove their lips and put on many many new lips, same as eyes if we do not like their eyes we can exchange them for new ones. we can change their jawbones, nose or chin, the shape of the face or just put on a totally different face or Sim. Can Sims 3 do that? NO way. it's older
Sims 4 Can use genetics to create the couples own child, and the choices are endless, Can Sims 3 Do that NO way.why older technology
Sims 4 has endless clothing and textures that I am sure if we add them up have more possible looks and textures then in Sims 3. a much older game.
All features of ts3. Also what ever color you choose for eyes hair or skin can be genetic and seen babies to elder. You can also change what occult state your sim is with out starting over in ts3.
Sims 4 has many very Creative new add-ons in the game That is only exclusive to Sims 4.
I'll help you by listing some
cas
ts4 push pull system is handy at times and they have more outfit sections which allows for more customization too.
Build features,
you can pick up rooms duplicate them and move them or a whole house around the lot as needed, curved decks are new, the ability to adjust each individual roof components pitch, color and position is new (and something I miss in 3). New decorative pieces like friezes
You kind of used the wrong examples above if you wanted to point out how ts4 improved.
Let's take a closer look, the Best Selling EP in Sims History. Cats & Dogs is Part of Sims 4 It's truly a 5 star EP.
Opinion and not likely.
ts3 has 7million copies ts2 6million ts4 has 5million. Going on potential customer base, unless people are buying C&D without the base game it isn't likely C&D is the highest selling ep in sims history. Probably ts4 history.
Animations with the Pets are first for any Sims Game and the best I have seen in any online game. The movements and animations are true to real life. and so are the Graphics.
Opinion, and I personally disagree with most of it.
The Vet Career is so cute and complete. starting with the exam table. its so nice how it goes down to allow the Pet to walk on and lay down, treating the Pet like Royalty, after all its part of the family and loved. The animations are so cute sometimes the owners even are crying with worry over their Pet while watching the examination.
Opinion.
All the Pets are true to real life and also they can make mix breeds. you can change everything about your pet even its nose, eyes or tail, could you do that in other Sims games? Nope. the older game lacks.
They have so many different personalities and some are lazy some spoiled some Well just buy the Pack.
You will fall in love with it.
You can mix breeds in ts3, it isn't as obvious a feature or necessarily as convenient as ts4 but if you take two pets of different breeds and use the play with genetics option it actually mixes the breeds quite well imo. You can also change pets eyes and tails in ts3 (I forget about nose)
More about Sims 4 Vet Career. Who expects to open a business and it's a successful business 5 STARS the first day.
Understand it's being truer to real life so you have to work at your business to make it a success. also, you must send your employees to training or yea they will behave as new.
I belive the issue people are having is that even when top trained things are not working well, due to other issues that are interrupting the sims work.
Or use Motherlode and just enjoy the game and not worry about stars and profits.
I must say to be fair its a lot of Creativity in Sims 4. I would say its very highly Creative.
But you must have the game to know. So why Not give it a try.
opinion
Also compared to a teen pointing to a game for a parent to buy costing 59$ and 69$ Sims games are the best way to go. when do you get to buy something for 10$ and make your teen happy? it's unheard of, also the same for yourself.
Its games that sell you money daily, in 50 dollars 75 dollars real money buys, you spend that fast on clothing and now you need another 50$ buy for more clothes, also sell you the songs for your parties or friends to hear. but we just get our music outfits free. also, its games and worlds that you pay rent like hundreds of dollars a month. We have free homes or motherlode and our gallery is free.So to me, the Sims games are the best way to go.
The standard base game 40$ alone. Even if some teen then only wants 1 sp that is still a 50-53$ game. There are games out there that are 5-10 dollars or even free to play if one restrains themselves from using microtransations.
Also remember that notorious sims 3 store? You know what 10$ in there could get you? About the same as an sp now depending on what and how one spent their sim points. ts3 base game is currently 20$ when it isn't on sale. I've seen sales where ts3 and all it's expansions are 80$ all together.
So not only is it highly Creative it's also fair pricing.
This is not just my Opinion its the truth. <3
I disagree for the reasons above.
