Was Multitasking worth the loading screens?

I voted for the first option, with a caveat. It's not that I dislike multi-tasking, exactly. We already had multi-tasking in the series. I just preferred the type of multi-tasking that was less disruptive to the rest of the game play.

Multi-tasking should be effortless and natural. When it happens, it should be so...subtle...as to go unnoticed. That's how it was in TS2 and TS3.

TS4's design has let multi-tasking take over to the detriment of most everything else. That is what I'm against. It's not natural or seamless. It's stilted and restricting. Because of multi-tasking, our Sims can't even do something as simple as lounging in a chair. So, for me, it wasn't worth it to have to endure loading screens on top of everything else.

It doesn't even matter how short the loading screens are. It's the fact that the loading screens prevent me from controlling multiple Sims, simultaneously, in the way that I had become accustomed to. Loading screens are a break in immersion and a wall between myself and my Sims.
