What is your biggest beef with Sims 4 at the moment?

Autonomy with Traits/Personality.  You can basically be a traitless Sim and it mean very little in autonomy vs. a thought-out trait combination. Autonomy and traits needs an overhaul!

What is your biggest draw to Sims 4 at the moment?

RoM and spellcasters with L&D, CoL, CCSP, PSP, EbN and R&L (maybe even Lovestruck (for relationship complexity)/SE (lifestyles)). Really have made a game more in depth to the type of fantasy storytelling, and theme I want to play.

What life stages are your priority?

I guess it would be YA.

What life states are your priority?

I always focus on human sims first. I will play aliens, vampires, and werewolves on occasion though.

4. Enchanted by Nature

Out of the most recent EPS (Business & Hobbies, Enchanted by Nature, Adventure Awaits and Royalty & Legacy). How would you rate their gameplay in a grade system (if you got them (those applicable))?

I don't have any of the newest packs so I can't rate this one.

What is your biggest beef with Sims 4 at the moment?

Two things. Too many different systems that are too similar to previous ones. The UI is too cluttered when all I want to see is my lifetime wish and career goals.

What is your biggest draw to Sims 4 at the moment?

Currently, it is the only game like it that fits my playstyle. While it's not perfect for everything I would want a game like this to be, it's the only one that comes close. Until a new game comes out that allows a similar playstyle, it's my only option.

Count me in. I love surveys.

What gameplay themes are your priority 1-10 (1 being priority and 10 being lowest or no priority)?

1. Modern with fantasy elements (occults in the modern world like Harry Potter, vampire/werewolf pop culture books/tv/movies, etc.)
2. Modern and better than reality life (vacation/travel, business/career based, extreme activities and luxury lifestyles)
3. Modern and regular everyday life (more family, children and modern/regular activities/lifestyles)
4. Modern with minor fantasy elements (not really occults, more like wishing wells, kissing frogs, etc.)
5. Era and regular everyday to better than reality life (Victorian, Bridgeton inspired, Medieval, etc.)
6. Future with alien/fantasy elements (Utopia ideal technology, Dystopia survival, space travel/living, etc.)
7. Era with fantasy elements (steampunk, dragons, etc.)
8. Era with minor fantasy elements
9. Future with minimal alien/fantasy elements (like some "Into the Future" aspects)
10. Future with no alien elements

What life stages are your priority?
I put most focus on young adults and teenagers. Teenagers, because a lot of the gameplay opens up for them, and lets you shape them and guide them how they live. Young adults, because young adults are the most fleshed out life stage, with nearly all options opened up to them.

What life states are your priority?
Spellcasters. I like occults and rarely play non-Occult sims, though Spellcasters get the most attention by far.

What is your biggest beef with Sims 4 at the moment?
The lack of hobbies. There aren't that many, and so many of them are tied to skills that are very niche (Apothecary, Pet Training, Herbalism, Tattooing), don't have much application (Archery is limited to the archery range and fishing), or can't easily be done on the fly (Bowling, Horse Riding.) I wish we got more Stuff Packs like Nifty Knitting, where they can dedicate everything to a hobby, flesh it out and make it more useful.

What is your biggest draw to Sims 4 at the moment?
Making sims kiss.
