What you're after, then, is a toggle, an option, a choice!
I would love to see a weather system similar to what we had in TS2. The entire world had weather. Each sub-hood had its own weather. IIRC, we could even determine how long each season lasted for each hood (or maybe that was TS3, I forget). It was wonderful.
Oasis Springs could have very, very rare and brief rainfall with cool evenings in the "winter", perhaps.
Willow Creek, Newcrest, Magnolia Promenade, San Myshuno, and Granite falls could have all four seasons (they seem to be in high summer, at the moment).
Windenburg could be foggy and rainy, with a longer winter. However, the spring and summer could be bright and beautiful, as it is now.
Forgotten Hollow could be foggy, rainy, and cold most of the time. (Hopefully, with darker nights.)
The possibility of choices makes me very happy. I hope that it comes to fruition. The one thing that I'm not going to do is buy a pack for each of the three remaining seasons. That would be going too far.
Both Sims 2 and Sims 3 had you can pick your own season for each world and yes I agree it was wonderful. I prefer it that way because there are some places that don't have all four seasons and some places that do. I didn't even see falling snow growing up until I moved states. So I wouldn't want seasons forced based on location, but be able to pick my own seasons again at the location I want not what the game tells me to do. Sims 4 has gotten famous for forcing playing their way and not the player's way with limits. If they do Sims 4 Sims 1 style again or even in separate packs, that is telling me Maxis isn't taking any of their EPs seriously anymore. Seasons is as big as pets and I don't want to see another big themed pack get the short end of the stick again with limits. It is a miracle even Cats and Dogs got cats from what I heard the Gurus said about it and that I truly find sad especially since birds and small critters were made even with the first Sims iteration. So Seasons better blow the Sims community away, I'm tired of EPs stinking this iteration and the Sims 4 seriously needs an epic Seasons EP to redeem that product type again.
