Remember Sims 1? It was a good game! Here are the comparsions I'm making between Sims 1 and Sims 4:
Sims 1 public lots were multi-purpse and ALWAYS full of lively people.
Sims 4 public lots are almost void of life,and you're forced to use a pointless and silly little checklist just to make that lot work.
In Sims 1,EA/Maxis made each public lot different;you could have a store and a diner on one lot,and on another lot,you could have a bar and a dance club.
In Sims 4,you see the same boring base game venues being plunked into every single EP and GP that EA churns out. This is my number one gripe with Sims 4: Waaaay too many bars and libraries and other bade game venues in the packs. Did oyu run out of ideas for lot types/venues,EA?
Sims 1 had really awesome things like Nancy the Paper Girl(if you had a dog,Nancy would scream and run away while your dog barked at her), raccoons and bears that were actaul animals, etc.
Sims 4 has things like broken trait system, people in raccoon costumes/bear costumes, and overly-freindly Sims.
Sims 1 had cats,dogs,fish,birds and reptiles as pets.
Sims 4 just ha cats and dogs,and has a stuff pack with rodents and other things that should of been included in C & D.
In Sims 1, it took only 7 seconds for Sims to eat a meal.
In Sims 4,it takes a Sim about 10-20 minutes to eat a meal.
Sims 1 had beautiful,vibrant neighborhoods with about 9-10 lots in each neighborhood.
Sims 4 churns out tiny little worlds with 4-5 lots(Magnolia Promenade,Forgotten Hollw,Glimmerbrook,etc).The biggest world in Sims 4 is Windenburg.
I'm hoping Sims 5 will have lots of Sims 1 elements in it.
