All I know is I am so sick of Bars, Bars and more Bars. Wish we could get some new lot types for a change. How about a working Casino or an Arcade.
And yes, I agree too many rabbit holes are not fun.
As for the possibility that they never planned Sims 4 to have this much content, if that is true, why? Every Sims game has had a ton of content, of course they should expect Sims 4 to have a ton of expansions. Considering it's closed world it is surprising Sims 4 can't handle what we currently have and more. This cutting back lots is getting ridiculous.
Sims 4 was always planned to have a lot of content, but it was also planned to be streamed over the internet. This is why the game could run so well on low end, old computers (by 2014 standards) because the computer was just the client. All you needed was a gpu that could handle the simple graphics, enough HD space and an internet connection. It can’t handle what it has (or what it doesnt) because the game still has a client-server architecture with your computer now handling all of the processing work instead of EA servers. The online client-server setup is exactly how they did it in SimCity which was developed alongside Sims 4 using (probably) the same engine.
