SimGuruDaniel talks Pets and Seasons for The Sims 4

In TS3 Seasons were the best part of living in the city, IMO. 🙂

Sims 4 is not the sims 2, Sims 2 is 100000000 times better.

The funny thing is, they set that bar themselves, as each iteration of the game had certain packs that were to be expected. If we received more content beyond the YA/A lifestage, it would go some way toward adding a bit more depth to the game.

I liked families in TS3, but in TS4 I just want to bypass the child/teen years as there really isn’t that much to do. Basically, I was ruined by Generations and Seasons.

3 months later after u said this
now there’s toddlers 🙂

Agreed! Before The Sims 4 launched I made a comment on a Sims 3 video wondering what EA will omit from the latest installment due to it’s history of never crossing the best features from a previous game but I had no idea The Sims 4 would take out practically everything including my “cute little bundle of pure joy”! This was just a move that went to far you don’t give us Simmers a game with less life stages then the previous two games and expect us Simmers to remain quiet about it….

Yes that needs to be added in a free update along with generations first in my OP.

That’s legit all the ones I want! I hope we get them.

That’s what I said in 2014.

I haven’t really complained about toddlers I would like them.But it’s not that big of a deal.But am really disappointed with what they have put out so far and I don’t even like the new one coming up.Only thing I see is singing career that even looks like something I will like. I am really disappointed. Every time I get a new pack I play for a week or two and then I am bored

I so agree with u!always complaining but continue to play,to much negativity

The standard was set by Maxis. I don’t purchase or continue to play TS4, as I’m waiting for them to add some depth to the game. Hence why I check in here for any rumored updates that will add to the core experience. But they continue to cut corners, deliver less overall, and fail to meet the bar that they set themselves starting with TS1. It’s not like the players are asking for things that are out of reach or unknown to the team, or things beyond their skill level — they’re literally asking for things that were integral to each prior expansion. Things they’ve demonstrated a capacity to do with each version of the game. This isn’t like AAA MMOs where the players are salty due to unrealistic or heightened expectations – in over two years since TS4 launched, they’re still lacking core features of prior games, not to mention the breadth and depth of prior expansions.

It’s fine if you’re happy with the shell of a game they’ve delivered, but when they’re overly reliant on metrics, it seems important to give them overwhelming feedback – especially when they interpret those metrics so poorly.
