The Mistakes of the Sims 4
What are the mistakes of the Sims 4 and what they should improve for better and versatile content?
I thought of this even though I think the game is getting better I feel they put unnecessary situation in the game that stops it from being as fluid. Other times I think those elements should’ve already have been included for the game to function better anyways.
LIMITATIONS: like no open shower woo hoo when the steam hides the woo hoo. No kitchens in dorms for students to make own meals. The mini fridge only for microwave sort of stuff which is silly if you want to use the mini fridge multiple builds like small homes and apartments making it not versatile. Not being able to put mini fridges, washing machines and ovens under counters.Not being able to have stoves and ovens separate and not being able to put objects like microwaves and coffee machines on others surfaces like shelves, accent tables and dining tables I know it more animation but I at least think they're should be a set microwave wall height or wall microwave.
We should be able to put a popcorn maker on tables.
We should see pets in other world's without a lot trait if vampire can pop up randomly to your house we should see pet in other neighbourhoods.
We should be able to walk more than one dog and children should be able to walk dogs.
If a sim is a family or has a high enough friendship with another sim then when the sim visit their house they shouldn’t have a problem with them cooking or sleeping overnight.
I can understand a sim not having to two occult powers however in CAS, I think all sum with occult DNA should be able to mix not match case features to represents both side.they have a special occult icon to represent mixed DNA either with human sim and a occult sim or two different occult sims e.g mixed alien human sim with human skin and alien eyes or a mixed vampire mermaid sim with the appearance of a vampire but with mermaid tail and powers.
Children should be able to do more things and they have been neglected more people will play with them if they had more things to do like riding bikes and doing a little wand magic mini duels, baking, gardening.
We should able to terrain paint the dirt on the edited terrain
Be able to move object down as well as up like bushes so they go flat into the terrain
Being able to select own roommates based on people your sim knows as well having random choice.
MISSING CONTENT:
Not adding hammocks with islands living or having a hotel system.
No drums added in a update or get famous
Not having a active teacher career in discover university see the other side of university life plus I'm not in the mindset that if we had a active career we wouldn't do much they are plenty thing for students and teacher to do e.g like writing a lesson plan, conversing with students and other teachers tutoring badly performing students assign group task planning field trips asking school board for new equipment and teachers planning a graduation event as a task etc. If it was for students pick groups in team project either prank other students or help classmate prank teacher to lower performance or ask questions to boost performance be a team leader or not show class and teacher your project. I'd rather do that then just wait ages for them to return for me to start playing with them again
Those that say it's pointless, you can say that for any active career. (I can always change a build creation I don’t buy the Sims for their build creations but for their content).
I was really disappointed when we didn't get hotel systems in island living especially as it didn't have much game play we need to be able to own more than one lot in a single household and rent out own business and residents or vacation home as a source of income.
(Unless sim does a hotel pack and study pack I think they should add theses features to the game).
Bunkbeds should be added in a update. As well as being able to make platforms based on a wall height segments to make split levels on different floor levels.
Rotate stairs diagonally
Ladders options as well ( I know we just got a Stairs system update which is good but I think it will better if function was customised by each individual step so they rotate by step and stretch to a certain distance in a way to change stairs into a ladder if not for the sims 4 then the sims 5).
RECYCLED OR THING THAT SHOULD’VE BEEN IN A UPDATE
The ability to change your poses that should been in a free update instead of add a camera feature in a stuff pack.
The whole of my first pets stuff should be free at least if you bought cat and dogs as most the stuff seemed be recycled stuff for cats and dogs. (I also think the only reason it would be rated high is for those that got cats and dogs and only enjoy pet stuff subsequently to loving cats and dogs. My first pets stuff rides off its coattails.
Instead of recycling content from previous packs and claiming them as new base game updates they should’ve made new content as we have bought these packs for their content.
(Look at LGR Sims 4 reviews and you notice which items have been recycled from which pack like the Sims 4 get famous review)

NEW FEATURES THAT SHOULD BE ADDED
Vehicles
Split levelling for all floor levels based on on wall height segments (the segments line is the parallel dots on the wall)

Banking system for everyone: Sims have separate fund when teens move out they have the money they saved either through part time jobs etc they can ask friend and family for money have Sims option to either put half/all or none in personal bank account or household account. Bill are taken out of household account. When a sim dies money they have in their personal bank can be divided up of family and friends how much each gets or given away to charity. When friend and family received a money from the dead to goes into their personal bank account.
My criticism is constructive in hopes of the Sims improving on these features.
What do think is missing or needs to be improved?🤔
