This is why I get bored in Sims 4 - I used to actually CARE about my sims in 2 and 3 because there were consequences and 'bad' things that could happen and struggles and memories. Without that - I do not care about my sims, so I get bored and keep starting new saves all the time.

If there's no meaningful failure states or consequences then all of the positivity and success becomes meaningless as well. It's a point I've brought up a lot in the past when talking about the issues with The Sims 4. Another thing I've also pointed out is that Will Wright himself back in 2000 literally said this exact thing regarding the failure states.
