I wish Sims relationships were more meaningful and had more depth using Sentiments. Like I wish my teen Sims could introduce their new partner to their parents and depending on how that first meeting goes, the sim could be sad their partner and parents don't get along, or happy they do. When Sims break up, it would maybe be interesting to see how they cope with their Ex-partners new relationships. A bad break up may lead the sim to despising their Ex's new partner, or to fall out with a close friend who is now dating their Ex.
Additionally seeing sentiments between friends and friends friends. For example, if Sim A and Sim B had a falling out, Sim A's BFF might have a negative sentiment toward Sim B based on their loyalty to Sim A, or they may feel guilt if they spend time with Sim B behind Sim A's back.

It might also be interesting to see some new lot challenges. For example, one might be to have something of a Home Owners Association. Your sims' neighbors may have something to say about the way your home is kept, and you could be fined for certain decor or events, and having pets.
Maybe you could have a 'Blacklisted' lot challenge, where your address has been blacklisted by a number of sites and services based on a previous tenant. This means repair services, maids or nannies may refuse to come to your home, and deliveries may not arrive due to your address being attached to a scam-y account.

It would be nice for it to appear like Kids go to different schools based on the world they are in. It happens with Snowy Escapes but I doubt kids living in Oasis Springs would go to the same school as those in Willow Creek.
It would also be nicer to see academic success and failure actually affecting Sims more especially along side aspirations.
In general it feels like Sims don't interact with their aspirations at all. It would be interesting to see how events that happen to Sims could impact them based on their aspiration; A child Sim with the Whiz Kid aspiration going down a grade may feel sad that they're failing academically. A sim with the Successful Lineage aspiration may feel happy when their child gets promoted at work, or angry when their child chooses a freelancer job rather than a career with progression.
