Servo Bots a Review
So i’ve been super hyped for Robot Sims to return to the Sims 4, and after all these years we get Servo Bots a fusion between the Servo in Sims 3 and the Sim-bots of Sims 3 but the end result is lack luster and has no payoff for the grind… Let me explain:
First off I used a Spell caster Sim will an infinite supply of refill all Needs potions, so this Sim is basically in God Mode.
I got a robot workbench and started my grind to lvl 8 to make a Servo
When i reached level 8 the Materials needed to make a Servo appeared, it then took the next 2 levels and MAXing out the robotics skill to get all the mats just to build the Servo Bot, at this point 6 hours of pure grind had passed. Real World Time
Next to Build the servo, and this took a long while to finish
but in the end you get to turn the Servo on and select its Gender
Hurray! finally have a Servo Bot
Next unlocked a cool little secret Skill for Servo called Enhancement it has 10 levels and each level requires the Servo to just stay alive and learn skills
Once a level is unlocked some Mats must be crafted to install the Enhancement
Now while doing this i was getting excited that there might be some BIG pay off for when Servo hits Enhancement Level 10 and possibly transcends its Robot Frame for a Synthetic Sim body. In reality there is no payoff for all this work and effort the Servo just gets a 50% increase to skill gain that i honestly can't even notice…. that is so lame
Every single other 10 level Skill in the Sims has a reason for you to aim for the finish line and get a reward and this one just changes nothing
all that work and effort for a Servo Bot that at level 5 is no different from its Level 10 version….
Servo’s need to be looked at some more or release a Robot expansion that expands upon what the Servo Life Cycle is, i really want to see Android Sims one day but Servo Bot is not that :(
and I'm not upset that Servo doesn't get a Human Sim body, I'm upset that Lvl10 adds nothing, unlocks nothing, 50% skill gain is pointless its not worth all the time and effort needed to reach Enhancement level 10
maybe give it an infinity Battery or Flawless Frame so Servo doesn't need repairs or a recharge << these are worthwhile rewards
