I completely agree with you.

You agree with them even though they were very adamant about disliking the game when it first came out. The sims standing around is a glitch thats why they are doing it and its never been fixed. My sims are lively but I guess that is just my game.

and i also do not have that problem my sims are always finding something to do so i do not agree with the original poster on this subject

I don't remember their opinion of when the game came out...?

The standing around bug is a glitch yes, but NPC's never interact much, they usually just do those filler talking animations without actually interacting but lately I have been seeing some more dynamics from them, since IL's patch.

Just today I saw two NPC's fighting, don't know what about, maybe because one was a vampire? I have no idea what happened but I liked it. I wish we'd see NPC's act up much more instead of just doing nothing, or constantly being friendly to each other and only being mean out of scripted events, no matter their actual relationship.

The fact is, sims still need to be updated and so do traits, to each I agree with the OP. All of them have the same personality, they are boring and repetitive.

Recently a couple townies got into a fight in Sulani. It was funny.

I'm having this too, but in Windenburg! I don't know if it's scripted or if townies are now free to do mean interactions between them. I hope it's the ladder.

the game is beautiful and very pleasing to look at, but the sims 4 sims are the problem they are very boring to play honestly in order for any thing interesting to happen you have to force interactions.. the sims don't feel connected to anything or anyone in this game.. i am hoping that the next major update pumps life into the sims themself, they need to be livelier. i watch a sims just stand for 5 real minutes staring into space.. they stand idle way too long.. they are not alive like the sims from sims 2 in that game there was always something happening, and they never just stand around all that i am trying to say is the sims in sims 4 need work if this game is going to last another 3 or four yearsi don't care how much beauty you throw at it.. it is the sims that have the problem..

I disagree entirely. I actually love the interactions between the sims, and feel they work perfectly fine.

Totally agree with the OP. The Sims really need a behavioral overhaul.

This is my exact issue with the game. The sims themselves are just so...dull. They are all the same because their personalities are dictated by emotions and not by their traits. There are so few jobs, traits, and aspirations anyway, starting a new family never feels like a new experience. I have my game so heavily modded in an attempt to fix the personality of the sims and the world around them and I still can't play for more than an hour, if that. It's just boring. Plain and simple. Which really sucks because I really want to enjoy this game. It's pretty, runs well, and has some really well done pieces of content (toddlers, seasons, cats and dogs)...but the sims are just too shallow for me :/

Edit: Hoping they could surprise us with a major overhaul to the sims themselves like they surprised us with toddlers but idk how likely that is.
