My main issue with the game since then it's that they keep putting basic and fundamental things from the franchise behind a paywall with no reason. I feel like they did the base game dirty comparing to older games in the franchise and we basically need to buy packs to feel like we're playing The Sims. Some of my complaints are:
- Simology: Lifestyles, reputation, milestones, etc. should've been BG cause they're basic and works with concepts we already have in it and don't specifically need pack features to work. The only ones that makes sense being exclusive are Fame and Character Values because they're the main focuses of their packs.
- Create a Sim: The quality of items don't even get close to what we have for packs (look at Demo's hairs) and we need a more flexible occult's creation. Also i really miss more customization and think we deserved at least one set of body freckles and moles. I still hoping for prosthetic limbs, body painting mode and poses for sims (like cats and dogs).
- Gameplay: The lack of interaction with some clutter objects and collectible pets and the way we can't have careers like babysitting, culinary and entertainer, even new ones like librarian or museum guide and analyst, as semi-active still bugs me. Also pay content features like singing and dancing skills, temperatures, tanning, eco footprint, NAPs, puberty(shaving and acne), pillow fights, slumber party and social compatibility shouldn't be behind a paywall.
