So I've played the sims since 13 years old and I've been an avid for a long time. I stopped buying from the sims series since the last ep from the sims 3.
When the sims 4 popped up, I waited until other people started buying before I made a decision.
first and foremost the sims 4 base game sucks.
1. upon launch they lacked key features included in the base game for the sims 3 and 2 toddlers and pools.
2. no in depth customization of clothing or objects, the sims 3 in terms of customization was way in depth with how you can color stuff. nope not in the sims 4.
3.No open world as in the sims 3, it's excusable to not have an open world in the og sims and sims 2 as the time when they were made your average computer may not be able to process the open world thing, but now in 2020 we have to wait for loading screen after loading screen per lot? gtfo with that b.s..
4. THE NEIGHBOORHOOD MENU IS LIKE FUCKING 2D. IN 2020 ITS FUCKING 2D..
The eps.
1. Take an expansion pack from either the sims 2 or 3 and compare it what you'd get for it in the sims 4. The sims 4 is plagued with overly expensive expansion packs that offer very limited content. Like for example the sims 3 supernatural offers witches and vampires amongst other supernatural life states including objects cas and features that change game play all for one expansion pack. But in the sims 4 you have to buy 2 expansion packs for 2 lifestates.
2. Dlc upon expansions pack that cost exactly the same amount as an expansion. Whether you agree with dlcs no dlc should cost almost the same amount as an expansion pack. Especially if the dlc is dependent on an expansion pack. see sims 4 pets and my first pet stuff.
3. the concepts are stupid, I'm not paying 20 dollars just so my sims can knit; they released sewing in sims 2 free time and offered other features.
the community and the shilling.
Part of what makes sims a good game to play is that you the player can control how you want to play. In a sand box game there is no rules, the sims up until the sims 3 seemed like a freeing experience in a game industry that is always pushing in sjw bullshit into their games. Well the sims 4 and their developers are the ultimate shills right now.
1. Mandatory game updates where your required to download shit you may or may not want in your game. Mainly pride shit, and hijab shit. You don't want it in your game? too fucking bad if you don't update can't play your game bigot.
2. Questioning it is discouraged. When the hijab update was announced everyone reed because they called it a cultural thing not what it is a religious thing. A lot of people ate forum bans after questioning it.
3. the gender binary is broken in the sims 4, In stead of making female or male sims you can only choose whether or not they can inpregnate be impregnated or be sterile.
All this shit I've mentioned can be corrected by mods, if I want specific changes made to my game, I use mods. there's no reason ea should force it down our throats. If there's a need someone would surely mod it, but even then if ea wants to release added stuff make it optional.
