Hello there, @galexandrakis
There's kinda low wiggle room here as to what you can do to fix your game, so I messily copied down a few things you can try. Hope this helps!
Do you have any mods or CC downloaded? This could be the problem with your game running slowly.
Play in windowed mode, as this is known to reduce lag.
The Sims is often known not to work on High Sierra, the best thing you can do is contact customer support.
Could your computer have too much storage? Sometimes this can affect gameplay. Same goes for old computers.
Try switching to 32-bit mode.
Untick Online features and share user data in the options menu.
Make sure that you lower the storage TS4 is taking up, it looks like the problem. You need at least 10GB for TS4. (9 for the game and 1 additional GB.)
Please provide your RAM in this forum as well.
Happy simming!

Thanks a bunch, I will definitely try all of these. I have 16GB of RAM. How do I change the amount the Sims takes up?
