I sometimes wonder if the people who come with these new tuning or mechanic ideas have actually played the game.
What's wrong with adding some new traits? Phone Lover is one idea, for example. We have Art Lover. Or maybe likes/dislikes. Dislikes Tech. Loves Gadgets, etc. The basics for this stuff is already in the game. If anything those could do with being tuned up a bit. Sims who hate cooking still cook for example.
I have often wondered the exact same thing! It's like they bring in new people to work on a feature, but that person has no idea what is in the game already or how you even play the game ..... it really seems like they have no idea of how they could/should incorporate the "new feature" to actually provide additional gameplay for those people who own more packs besides the base game. I've often thought the issue is because they are incorporating it to only be a basegame feature and not play-testing these features without all of the packs. This iteration of The Sims is really horrible about cross-pack integration.
I think that's the reason that mods always seem so much more indepth, because they are created by actual simmers who've played the game for years and know how it works!
