I'm not sure, but I hope it's not like their environment overhaul where the sims kept saying "yawn" or "a-ha" all the time. So I hope it will not turn out into active sims doing push-ups every 5 minutes and angry sims swearing constantly for no reason.
Oh dear, reading the patch notes it sounds like this is exactly what they did.
On the Gameplay side, we have made some targeted improvements to a selection of Base Game personality Traits to make them more meaningful in gameplay. The idea is to provide these Traits a noticeable improvement so that Simmers can identify the specific Traits with more obvious visual cues and apparent, unique behavior.
Yeah, can't say I'm impressed. They only spent like 2 minutes talking about it in the livestream. They barely provided any examples.
Uh that's kind of a quick judgement without playing the game and trying them out.
I'm happy to be proved wrong. I don't have the game installed right now, but I look forward to hearing everyone else's experiences.
Sorry, my hopes aren't very high, given this game's track record.- simsimsere4 years agoRising Adventurer

I'm hopeful because I loved how sentiments were done. It's gonna take a while to explore though as I'm going to use my current families. I should have sims with all traits in my rotation, but yeah quite a long time. - So far I'm not seeing much impact from this update...
For anyone hoping for new social interactions to add trait-based flavor, you might enjoy the mods I've been posting at MTS: https://modthesims.info/browse.php?tag=helaene%20socials I have several more in the works and am open to suggestions. Many of the interactions are autonomous, so you'll see your Neat sim talking about vaccuums, Good sims boosting Empathy, etc even when you're not controlling them (though I know some of you like ultimate control!) - JanuaryGarnet084 years agoNew Spectator

I don’t see how you can make valid critiques on a game you don’t even play. "Pamtastic72;c-17841470" wrote:

I have almost 1200 hours played in game. Just because I don't have the game installed doesn't mean I can't critique it."AbbyBaba729;c-17840081" wrote:
I'm hoping it will a nice trait & emotion overhaul, but I gave up on EA a while ago.
I expect a few bugfixes at most. MAYBE a small change on how traits affect emotions.
It seems I was exactly right.
RIP people who thought we were getting an overhaul.- MrGiggleTickle4 years agoSeasoned Newcomer

I don't have expectations with The Sims anymore. They say we're getting "Trait Improvements" when in reality they give us a lame coffee pot with a plumbob on it.
Man, after seeing what we got with the traits I kinda wish we got that coffee pot instead.
