Sim not responding immediately task/action

Looks like I have this too. I have no mods and what happens is:

I can try different actions, going to bed, use the computer... it works the first time and then stops until I restart the game. I'm living in the fairy neighbourhood, the starter house there. I'm a fairy.

Gotto say, the state of the game doesn't feel very good, it's super expensive and so much just doesn't work!

I still can't play my game. I've done updates... repair.. clear cache. I just don't know what else I can do. The sims will go to where I want them to go but don't do what I've asked them to do. 

It's getting ridiculous. I've spent alot out on packs and I can't play the game.

Is there going to be an update to make my game work again or have I spent out for nothing.
