Why can't we see weather temperature?

They only have vague temperature like hot, warm, cool and cold now. They said they’d rather put the source on other features than actual temperature

I like this option. I imagine that what counts as "hot" to people in Oasis Springs isn't the same as what counts as "hot" to people in Windenberg.

meh...

It’s better this way if it’s hot it’s hot if it’s cold it’s cold there’s no guessing in temp.

It dosn't bother me. I kinda like it actually.

I like it this way, cos in ts3 I was always trying to figure out how hot a certain temperature was in reality. It did kind of distract me. All I need to know is whether it's hot, cold etc.

Freezing, cold, cool, warm, hot, and whatever the top hot one is works fine for me. If the game is just going to translate a number bracket into those categories anyways for actual gameplay effect I might as well not spend my time trying to remember which one 86F/30C falls into.

The Sims 3 had specific temperatures, which was very nice IMO. Although they were a bit wonky, it was a great idea.

In The Sims 2 it was done entirely different. You could only get an idea of what temperature it was from a bar next to the sim's face in the control panel. That bar was only telling the Sim's temperature and would change depending on where your sim was, so when indoors you didn't even have a vague idea of what it's like outdoors.

I don't know how I feel about TS4 Seasons changing this. Obviously, I haven't played it. I don't like simplification, but I would argue that TS2's system is worse, at least IMO. And there might be benefits to the vagueness... Meaning I can imagine what hot is. A lot of people that the mid 70s/80s are nice, but I find they range from uncomfortably warm to hot, so I could easily read 'hot' as in the mid 70s/80s or above if I played The Sims 4 Seasons.

I like it this way too. Everyone has a different idea of what degrees F/C they consider hot or cold, and this way it's just clear: the exact temperature doesn't matter, whether the game considers it cold, cool, warm, or hot, that's the only thing that matters in the sim's universe.

I like it better this way. I mean not all countries use Fahrenheit or Celsius and you can pretty much guess yourself just by looking at the thermometer and by whether it says freezing, warm, cold, cold, etc....to me freezing is blow zero and hot could be over 100 degrees (this just based on my person experiences with weather. I grew up in a desert area but too far from the mountains. Everyone's experiences is going to be different).

It makes for more interesting game play when everything is not done for us and can just making up our own when telling a story. I mean it isn't that big of deal as it doesn't really affect the game as we can still tell/know if it is too hot or cold out.
