Still play Sims2 and still love it! Time to time try 4 and keep hitting the split decision - some things in it are really great (CAS, for instance), and other things are downright stupid. As in what where they thinking, if they were? To name a few: concurrent passage of time, instead of Sims2 sequential; townie vampires; the FUBAR type of screenshot 'manager' instead of the great one in Sims2 (even Sims1 was better); various kitchen items can be put only on specific (and not mentioned) surfaces; no police & firefighters, no memory system, took years to get toddlers in, hostility to and lack of lack of compatibility with CC/mods - Sims2 welcomed both with open arms; readily available information on what is really in a pack and how to make the best use of it. It should not take a lot of hunting on either these forums or the internet in general to get answers to basic questions. I could go on, but you get the idea, especially since similar feelings are rife in posting after posting. I've never seen a game before where there was so much gut level unhappiness. One expects problems needing answers, one does not expect dismay, despair, and disgust - especially at the level so prevalent here. I do hope things turn around for the better, and I don't mean more 'goodies'.
