I try doing this too, decorating their room to match a hobby. It is still hard to remember the next time I play their house.

Maybe all we need is a mini hobby-tab in the sim UI, where we could just write their hobby? Like the Job registry feature allows us to describe a CC job. If I could easily see their hobby (if any) when in game, it would attach more to their personality as it might affect some of their choices in life, even.

I really miss the Interests they had in TS2. Whatever they did back then, affected what they would talk about to others. What they did/talked about most often, would easily become their top interest, and seeing their highest interests would be useful when finding them a hobby.

Like I mentioned about about Free Time, hobby enthusiasm would be a great feature to bring back. I am glad you mentioned the conversations they had about their hobbies in TS2 because I'd like to see that back again in a hobby pack too. It really does add another layer when you can actually see your sims discussing hobbies they enjoy. I love that. I think most simmers would be gleeful if they announced a hobby/Free Time pack and it would sell well.
