Wants & Fears Discussion Thread

I do not mind the idea of Wants and Fears and even the idea that they can't be cancelled. If only they would make sense. Most of the issues with them in their current state were already pointed out, and some I want to add.

It looks like some of appearing Wants/Fears perform no logic checks. What I've noticed.

• Wants ignore age restrictions - like my children roll wants to perform interaction available only for Teens+. I do not mean anything woohoo related. For example Look at bright side - my adult sims can perform it, but the child has no such option still he constantly rolls want to do so.
  
• Wants ignoring Dislikes. It's great that they take Likes into account, though these obsessive music genre wants are absolutely unbearable. I had to delete all music preferences from all of my sims thanks to them. But Dislikes are not checked. My sim who dislikes Dancing constantly rolls a wish to dance, sim who dislike fitness wants to Jog etc. I have a feeling Dislikes are not taken into account at all.
  
• Wants ignore relationships formed. Like the mentioned want to break up with partner while relationships are actually really good.
  
• Wants can contradict each other. Like My sim wanted to be alone and wanted to perform some social at the same time. Or wanted to stay home for X hours and wanted to visit certain lot type at the same time.
  
• I do not get a Logic of Job Fear. From how it described it would be logical to assume this one should appear after long time with no career advance and not immediately after promotions.
  
• Imho it would be better if Fear of Death triggered Sad emotion instead of Frightened. You do not run around panicked because of some existential fears, you panic from situational fears. These more philosophical fears probably could depress you and made you Said. And also this will solve the problem with lots of panicked elders running around nonsensically.
  

Aside from these logic issues my main complaint is Toddler wants are mostly nonexistent. Because most of the wants are related to objects and toddlers activities are pretty much limited to those available to them since the time of their release they pretty much want all the same things all the time. Like chat, joke, hug... Also "fun" fact - according to the full list of Wants/Fears published by Sims Community there's no want to pillow fight :s
