Scenerios- Yes or No?

After giving it some thought, they are No, for me. I want to see improvements with the game itself. A scenario doesn't change how the game works or add anything new to it. But I can see how they can be fun for people, I think they will work for people that are looking for something quick to play and return to it from time to time.

I think that Maxis could have worked more on them though, they could be more advanced, have more options, rules that actually restrict you in the game, sub-goals, more different outcomes and also that they could have given us the ability to create our own challenges.

If they had been like the 'stories' from TS2 there might have been a better reaction from me, I guess. Such as when you load one of the premade families in that game they are already mad and fighting. And or in love and or breaking up or whatever. They have already been coded to behave a particular way with one another. Those are actually fun to play because the player doesn't have to go the route of letting Casandra get left at the alter by Don, nor allow the fighting and hatred to continue between the two teen sisters or the maid to stay over and romance the dad etc. There are no rules there, either, but at least they have a back story you can see by actually playing them and see they are upset and mad and or cheating and or broke and breaking down over it.

This just seems like some backdoor way to make TS4 more like a mobile game.
