I think it is really disappointing that they did not include Voidcritters as an Activity that kids could like. There are so few activities for the kids even to do in this version of the Sims, and here was one that was specifically added just for them, and yet they couldn't even be bothered to add it. However they added some that aren't even that unique to kids, like snowboarding. Another almost unpardonable omission was the lack of any logic-based activity, as was mentioned above, like chess or using the observatory. This is a really egregious omission, especially considering that we've had a logic skill and telescopes in the game since Sims 1, so you would think this would be a core activity. Now what are my genius sims supposed to do to entertain themselves suitably?

Apart from these two really egregious omissions, I like this new system a lot. Even if it only brings with it a few buffs, includes just a couple new socials, it still adds some personality to the sims. Depending on how much it affects autonomy and whether it improves fun at a faster rate, it could even improve the individuality of sims during gameplay. I am looking forward to seeing them expand this system in the future, filling in the currently existing gaps with bringing along more activities from the basegame and the packs, while (of course) contributing some new ones too.
