Here's what I have to say:
What you liked:
I loved those pre-made rooms that you guys created! I built a few houses using those pre-made rooms.
I also love the option to create curved roofs and triangular rooms.
The lighting effects are so realistic,compared to the other Sims games.
I like the idea of your Sim going around and finding things like gems and wild flowers to harvest.
The option to turn off aging for the whole game. I never did like having my Sims grow old and die.
No time progression! The time progression in Sims 3 was too realistic and and actually turned me away from getting any more Sims 3 games.
What you didn't like:
The bar,lounge and nightclub. The lounge and nightclub were just deluxe versions of the bar. I would of preferred just to have a bar.
Sims wandering off the lots and disappearing,making me worried that some type of bug wiped my Sims out. I finally found out that the Sims
return home on their own if I waited for a few hours.
What? No eateries,stores or video game arcades? Just having libraries,museums,gyms and 3 different kinds of bars is boring!
Only 3 kinds of music to choose from on the radio and jukebox....and the public speaker only plays ONE kind of music. Boring!
No basements.
The long hair options are severely limited. There's no straight long hair for men or long wavy hair/long curly hair for women.
Having to have specific items just to make things like libraries and gyms. Really-something like a TV in a wild west-themed bar doesn't even make any sense.
Suggestions?
I would love to see an option to create non-Human Sims(animal/human mutants, plant-Sims,etc).
Put in basements. It does NOT make any sense that you could dig down in Sims 2 and 3,but you cannot dig down in Sims 4.
Give us the options to create stores, eateries, zoos,aquariums, video game arcades, circuses.and county fairs.
Make it so Sims cannot wander off lots without you knowing it.
NO time progression! We don't want this to be Sims 3 all over again(you playing one family while your other families marry or move out or die without you knowing it).
Bring back bee-keeping,Claire the Bear and Bandito the Raccoon from Sims 1.
Put actual telephones in the game. I don't like having to click on a little icon on the bottom of the screen just to use the phone.
Make more music options for the radio,jukebox and public speakers(like smooth jazz, calypso, easy listening, 50s rock,etc.)
Give us the option to create our own signs for our businesses(this could be the custom music folder,except you upload pics of things like a sign you made for a church event,garage sale,etc.),and you put it on a building (much like you would put a Sim poster on the wall of your Sim's house).
