The Sims 4 is very boring right now!
Not really a rant but a question. Is there anything new and exciting coming out? What can I do to improve my gameplay? I have University Eco living Pets Seasons Bowling City Living Get to W...

I like to have a whole lot of families with teen kids and make these rival families have their teen kids become best friends or vice versa where the teen kids are enemies while their parents are good friends. (I use MCCC to speed up this process by establishing the base relationships between parents and then I like to focus on the kids and build their relationships manually...that is the heart of the fun, anyway.) It’s cool to get inspiration from my favorite TV shows in terms of personalities or storylines, and along the way I get my own ideas through my sims and their natural interactions with each other.
The world(s) definitely play a big role in entertaining gameplay so I would imagine setting up exciting venues to encourage fun times with your sims. I say this because I’ve been personally hit with the slump of staying on the home lot for too long and that’s what makes me want to exit the game out of boredom. In one of my saves, I have two separate teen hangouts that are representative of cliques in my town and I like to have these groups of friends get along....sometimes. My personal preference of setting up these hangouts include San Myshuno (since I love the diverse quarters and I just like the city vibe) and Newcrest (considering it’s basically empty and so much room for creative freedom.) In general, I love to have these big parties (or as big as my computer will allow without suffering from overload) and everyone is mostly happy. They take pics, tear up the dance floor, eat all the food, and maybe have a couple stray away from the party to the backyard so they can have a sweet conversation on the swing set. :) it’s bittersweet to see these teens grow into young adults and see their lives blossom.
Perhaps you can play in a world you don’t normally play in and have the classic next door neighbor situation or sims that live in opposite ends of the town and it’s up to you how you want to play, whether you want them to live happily or add tons of drama. Though I recommend even if you wish for a happy endgame it’s always good to put your sims through a challenging life event because it adds to the story and keeps it interesting. If it’s happy all the time the game can feel quite bland.
In short: Exciting hangouts + various personalities + drama
