The reason simmers welcolme other life simulator games.

Too real does not bother me - too cartoony does. But i prefer it somewhere in between. Mobile games like Sims 4 mobile and free time are way too cartoony for me - which will keep me from playing them. It was fine years ago when Zelda amd Mario Brothers first came out on consoles at the beginning of consoles but eventually as more pc games came out I wanted far less cartoon looking - and some middle ground. With default skins i found Sims 2 sims acceptable but just barely. Their eyes looked dead which bothered me.

Sims 3 characters took a lot of work and also user made skins. But i eventually have plenty of character I made which are still on my sims pages i could live with - without pudding faces.

Sims 4 - well still trying to find my happy place with them - but no cc anyway.
