I just feel like we really need SOMETHING to make the Sims in TS4 feel unique. In TS2, I love playing the sims very much according to their interests - it gives so much more direction to the gameplay. Like if I'm not sure if a sim should do something or not, I can easily check their interests to help make the decision. It's so handy!
When I play a large family in TS4 (which is of course my go-to gameplay) I'm usually bored by generation 2 or 3 because all of the sims are the same as the previous generations. I'd so love to have them actually be different.
