A very unpopular opinion I guess would be: I don’t care about multitasking. If anything I think it’s a nuisance. If it were a toggle I’d disable it.
(sorry for being a negative Nancy but my opinion on this is pretty strong and sincere)
Can you elaborate on this? I've heard some people complain about multi-tasking saying that it makes things take too long - eating for example.
Indeed, that. Plus it’s no real multitasking, they just do two actions in turns autonomously (and it takes forever). But to me there’s more and that’s where the unpopularity of the opinion comes in ;) I genuinely don’t care sims being able to do two things at the same time. I like the clarity of them finishing one thing first, then go to the next. Always obeying my instruction in that respect. Me being able to give them a series of instructions and them just doing that while I’m busy controlling another sim in the household.
Yeah, I fully get that. I think it comes in handy sometimes and then other times it's not so handy. I think part of the reason some things take way too long is the idle animations rather than multi-tasking entirely in itself. So, while a Sim can be eating, drinking and talking, there will also be a few idle animations added into the mix that slow things down a lot. I was watching my Sim eat the other day wondering why it was taking so long, and I noticed that between each bite of food ~3 idle animations would play in a row...ugh, lol. While I generally love the idle animations, I think they should be toned down a notch or at least they should be overridable with player commands.
