There is no open world, color wheel etc to explain away why the sims 4 is the most bugged sims game

I don't disagree that TS3 has its issues. I don't have a problem playing with all of my content. I have all EPs, GPs, and store content. Yes, there might be a bit of lag from time to time...but I would much rather have that than what I have seen discussed about TS4. I stopped purchasing for it quite a while ago and went back to TS2 and TS3...best decision ever. I had a lot of hope for the newest generation of simulation play as I have been playing since the days of the original series. The newest incarnation just doesn't hold my interest.
