If there is a Sims 5, should our sims be of actual ages, instead of just stages in life?
I think this would be very interesting.

I feel actual ages might be a little much. I would not feel bad if they put resources into something other than gradual aging.
I do like the stages, though. Whatever they do, it has to feel meaningful. Stages feel meaningful to me when you transition and have new privileges with a new appearence.
I am not sure how they will handle birthdays with gradual aging. Theoretically you could have 100 or so. They'd also have to somehow balance it with game time. It also begs the question of what you are going to do with players, like me, that play with aging off and do it manually.
Whatever they do, so long as it is well balanced and does not force me into an abrasive playstyle against the clock, I will be happy.
