It takes less time in a loading screen than it did to travel across the map in Sims 3. This is Sims 4, not Sims 3 and many of us like it like that. I hated how long it took to get places in Sims 3. I love in Sims 4 how easy it is to click on the phone pick your companions and boom, you are on your way. Pick a destination (In any world - not confined to one) and you are there. That is the beauty of Sims 4. Stop thinking in terms of Sims 3. Or go and play Sims 3.
Players should be allowed to post their thoughts freely on this forum without having another player come and tell them to 'go back to Sims 3' just because they disagree. That's pretty rude, actually.
There are for's and against's for loading screens. For me, personally, I quite like the open world because travelling around made the game more immersive and realistic. I liked roaming around the open world, but that's just me. Having loading screens plays like second life or similar which is not really my thing. It's all down to personal taste. If they must have loading screens, then at least the neighbourhoods could be open because they went from a completely open world to a completely closed world - one extreme to the other. A compromise might have been more acceptable.
At the end of the day, that is the only option. And if someone doesn't want to hear an opposing opinion, then they shouldn't post at all. They have a right to post, and I have a right to answer. And people visiting the site have a right to hear both sides. I realize that Sims 3 fans would prefer to have it one sided, but that is not the way of the world.
Seems to me you’re the one who wants to approach it one sided, since you dodge the fact loading screens in fact take as long as the slowest car in Sims 3 from one end to the other in a huge world. Which was the foundation of your ‘opinion’. Turning out to not be an ‘opposing opinion’, just a wrong ‘fact’. And that is besides the other fact - more important even - your ‘opinion’ was completely ignoring the issue the OP presented: travelling within a small area that takes loading screens as well. Your post was off topic.
