I just miss the amount of creativity I felt with other games. I know you can still be creative in 4, but I felt like each generation had been building on the creative tools from the one before it, and this was the first time in the series where we as players saw fewer ways to create. And it's an odd time for such a decision too. Everywhere you look, more and more games are touting player freedom and creativity, and finding more ways to give players control, and you get to TS4 and it's actually pared down compared to TS3, or even 2.
This series used to feel so unique and innovative, but I feel like they're less interested in innovating and keeping competitive in the gaming world, and more interested in making small packs that don't make much of a difference in our gameplay, but will turn a quick buck. I always say, I don't hate this game, but I know it could have been so much better.
