@JoAnne65 Sims 4's life cycle has been longer than Sims 2 and 3, has more Expansion Packs than Sims 2, and more Stuff Pack than all sims games. It also has Game Packs that no other has. That list of features should've been in Sims 4 at this point.
Quantity over Quality. Just because an iteration has more packs doesn't mean that they are fleshed out as well. With the Sims 4 even over five years later it still feels half baked to many Simmers and issues from launch day still haven't been addressed including relationships and odd clipping and roofing and memory leaks just to name a few things. Modern and Victorian have been the major focus while other iterations were more inclusive to other styles and the focus on rich households and straight adult females only with Build/Buy/gameplay makes other time periods and age and gender and culture lacking. Sims 4 has the laziest and most dumb Sims yet which SimGuruLyndsay agreed upon these Sims being dumb with the recent podcast. I want Sims to get active in sports, do other activities that are stereotypical female activities, and live in different locations and time periods. Sims 4 has a very narrow focus that will get outdated and it barely started opening up with culture other than American just in the past couple years starting with Jungle Adventures. I know Get Together was trying with culture, but other than the world, there is nothing cultural about the game play with it that can't be done in the bay area. I want the focus to expand wider than the area of the bay area for the game to the world. But as it is now, target market is bay area which I know is a dream location for some Simmers but not for everyone. Not everyone wants to live like a Guru or a Gamechanger. Some of us have dreams beyond that. My reality and the reality I see with others is more of an underdog which is probably why I can relate to supernaturals more. They are hated in this iteration just like how I have been hated with some in the Sims community for being different. Sims 4 is just not inclusive towards those of us who are different and don't fit into the "preppy" mold. I prefer the deeper subjects of life.
