How is a tide washing anything away when this is a sandbox? If we want to see things literally here, This isn't the beach where the sand is open and the tide can come in and wash what you build away. Were talking about a sandbox game, the idea of an isolated area. A place where the person within the sandbox can manipulate the sand how they'd like without worry of something or someone coming in and destroying it and if you look at previous games that's how it was. Now as I see it, with the sims 4, we are give a semi open Sandbox with prebuilt sandcastles and Eaxis is standing over us watching every move able to come and go freely whilst dropping off extra, sand buckets and shovels we didn't ask for as we try to manipulate our sandbox the way we want. And if something isn't the way that it was prebuilt its stomped on and were back to square one of a never ending cycle. So unless they come out and say this isn't a sandbox game in fact they want it to be more of an open sand filled area (Like a beach) a lot would make sense to why the game functions the way it does."simgirl1010;c-17042577" wrote:
ETA: Have completed reading the other comments and I think one of the reasons I don't experience the 'all sims feel the same syndrome' is because I focus on one household and their related sims so its not as evident in my gameplay. I do see how playing lots of households would result in a feeling of less individuality.
I do not rotate play either. I only stick with one household, however when any of my sims are interacting with sims outside of the household, whether it be at the park, restaurant, bar, etc. I notice that a lot of sims do the same things and act the same ways. I mean you're lucky that you dont experience it. But its an eye sore to me. I've even delete all premades and filled my homes with sims with so many different trait combinations and still I get the same thing.
