1. I like sims how they are mostly.

2. I really don’t want turn ons/turn off back. If I press two sims faces together I expect them to kiss. Same for Zodiac signs.

3. Gallery poses should absolutely count as cc and I’m tired of seeing them. I’d be nice if there was a thing for closeups of sims faces, but not like that.

4. I don’t use cc lashes, they’re too intimidating to apply to all of my sims.

5. I don’t really care about freed babies, farms, or cars. Babies are okay as is, and I don’t really want child raising to be even more difficult, the Story of Seasons games exist, and cars would only interest me if they worked like rocket ships. Especially the building part.

Agree with all except number 5.

I know people keep asking for The Sims 2’s memory system back, but I’d like to be able to delete sims I don’t like without corrupting my game. And I’m not just talking about the random sims, I just don’t always want the same sims all the time. And memories in The Sims 3 were overdone. Congratulations, you found a rock, this is definitely worth remembering!

Cinematic cutscenes seem like they’d get old pretty fast.

Sims 4 is the best sims game, for me it is anyway. :D

Thank you.
I feel I have to say nearly once a week to other gamers

The long lifespan setting is a waste of time.

It's the only lifespan setting I use. :D

Yeah Sims 2 memory system was awesome. It didn't clutter like the notifications thing the Sims 3 and 4 has. That brings a good point how I don't like story progression in the Sims 3 or 4 without the help of mods. I think it a poorly coded system and prefer making my own neighborhood and removing Sims without corruption like I could with the Sims 2. I had more control over my game.

I loved the cut scenes. I remember talking to SimGuruDaniel about them how tough they were to make and expensive. But I do still miss them and him working on the team. It was nice having someone to talk to who understood the older Sims game like him.

Can I also just say how i DON'T like the overly pushed down the throat lgbt content which pops up in everything and everywhere with this game.
Thank you for reading this.

As a member of the lgbt community, I agree. I don't like that they're start to "Rowling" some of it too (i.e. only informing us on twitter that one of the spellcasters is nonbinary, rather than ingame).

I know it is a request to have in game too from listening to other Simmers. Since I have some friends that are, I wouldn't mind it being an in-game feature too. I found out through Twitch about Morgyn being non-binary.

It is funny how even lgbt members feel kind of insulted or annoyed by the circus Maxis is pulling of and I think you and the others are right to feel so as well. So thank you for your comment ;)

yeah its starting to feel bit too much like "marketing ploy" by now like inclusivity is all nice but id prefer they didnt make "show" out of it so to speak

but yeah lets try and get this thread back on subject should we :sweat_smile:

I am in the same boat. I am the G in LGBT (as much as I hate telling people my sexuality or lifestyle) and I cringe whenever I see them (or anyone else) using it as a way to push their product and showcase that they are accepting and diverse. Like, marriages between same-sex Sims was done back in Sims 2 and publically known. It may have been done earlier, but it was still the pushing point.

No idea why they are trying so hard to be as inclusive and offence to someone now when their past has shown a history of acceptance.

When they released the gay couple in Sims 4 Pets, I was livid because that overshadowed the content of the game. It was like a constant popup flashing, “LOOK! LOOK! We did this! Please, accept us that we are diverse! HAHA WE LOVE ALL BUY OUR DLC!”

When they released the pride stuff, I was disgusted because the Sims has no need for it. My Sims do not care if someone is gay or straight, a male or a female. Everything is accepted without question. Having an LGBT flag is redundant. If there were Sims who hated you because your Sim was gay (unlikely), I could understand, but no one hates your Sims because of their orientation or lifestyle.

The fact they had to push Morgyn’s identity on us without showing it in-game is a joke. However, the game itself is quite shallow storytelling wise, so they needed somehow to sell us their diversity as cheaply as possible.

Also, I am thrilled I am not the only person to use a J.K Rowling scale.

I don't want cars or farming
