Hello fellow Simmers,
I have played the Sims since the very beginning and I have to say this game is extremely disappointing.
Here is why:
No open world, you can't walk within your neighborhood (here we are back to the original sims where there was no open world and we had to wait for the game to load with your destination of travel within the same town...wow talk about really going backwards!)
The babies are not even seen in the cradle
Babies look deformed; brought the baby home from hospital, could not see the baby in cradle and then when my sim picked her up the body is stretched; it's like when you download bad sim skins and it transfers over to newborns in the sims3
Lots of glitches; could not get the open packet of seeds to release after being selected even though it open the package of seeds
There are no areas such as Town Hall, Shopping stores, police station, schools, etc.
Some areas for fishing are not accessible
Sims won't do queued items and no matter how much you click on fishing on some locations the sim can't and that goes for checking out rocks and other items, it just won't work
Camera is awful; I prefer the way it has been for years, not this new way of click and hold; can't just move the mouse around screen.
No dishwasher or trash compressor
Sims go to work and you can't even see them as they travel to work; they just disappear from the front of your house
Married sims take on the last name of the first sim you create; therefore, don't create a female first or you're stuck with her last name and there is nothing you can do about it because there is no town hall to change it!
No services for babysitter....really????
Sims look very cartoony and if your mouse is on them, there is a white line around them like a cartoon game
I could go on and on; but I'm sure others have experienced the same or worse issues. Very disappointed and am going to call EA and request a refund, this was not worth $69.99. This is not what we were promised; they should have informed players that this game is NOT an open world game and the worlds are VERY limited and you don't get to see your seem travel between buildings, neighbors, or work. This is the worst part for me. I have all the Sims games and never complained, even when there were issues, I just went along with it; but this is so not acceptable, this is like the first Sims, no open world and just lots of zoning if you want to go somewhere...boring!
What a big let down EA :'(
