Honestly? When I look back to my days on the PS2 playing the Sims, I think nothing but amazing times, stories and fun! Even the Sims 2, all good times and memories. Sims 3, same thing, thinking back to builds and werewolf clans taking over towns etc! Sure I do remember the lag of the open world, but for what it was, the content was GREAT, I was always excited for a new pack and had it release day without a DOUBT. I never questioned it. I've all the game DVDs still and they're some great memories and times.
When I think of the Sims 4, sure I think of some good times, but also a lot of frustrations. Small things, large things, let downs time and time again. I never buy a pack now on release day, I ALWAYS wait for reviews and to see how many bugs are released on launch day. I'm never disappointed with my decision to wait for a sale and several bug fixes. Even then, game packs like Dine Out, have been broken FOREVER! Small things like just allowing a sim to be their own chef or own host, waiter etc. The animations are all there, so why can't it work. Just small things. It shouldn't take 12 hours to eat a meal at a restaurant, but it does.
Morale is very low, rock bottom for me and I'm nearing my 30s and been playing near two decades of the sims games. Its definitely sad.
