What I'd like instead of open neighbourhoods
Many people on the forums here, who have lost hope for open world to make a return in the game, are saying that they actually want open neighbourhoods in The Sims 4 instead of the closed worlds. It so...

I would prefer the open neighborhoods without loading screens between lots. I am not too fond of an open world due to story progression issues I had in TS3. I don't think it would make a big difference if it would be an "open world" with loading screens between every lot compared to what we have now. Doesn't seem necessary in my eyes.
I don't really agree with the bold part. Sure, the base game neighborhoods are far worse, but since Windenburg they improved on it a lot. I assume you're talking about the visual connection between the neighborhoods, if so, I can give you an example:

From the spice market in San Myshuno, you can clearly see the Uptown district in the distance, which I don't think feels "disconnected" at all. You can also see it from the center park of the city, and I think from other districts also. You can even see the spice market from other districts, so I definitely see a sort of "connection" there.

But I'd rather have a whole world in one map, instead of one neighbourhood, and then a loading screen if you want to go to another lot. To me all of the neighbourhoods seem so disconnected and I don't like all of the teleporting to different neighbourhoods.
For some worlds this will be hard of course like Windenburg where you have a whole seperate island. So in that case open neighbourhoods would be a better option.
However anything else than these closed worlds would be amazing, so I'd be happy to welcome any change!
