Hey! Thanks for checking out this video! I spent a lot of time gathering this info, putting it together, and editing the video. I've heard the complaints about the sound effects. While I was editing with my headphones on it didn't sound too loud. However, now I know that I need to check it out with other speakers/headphones before finishing up. Thank you for the feedback! I appreciate it 💖

SETTING THE BATHROOM SINK TO BE DIFFERENT FROM THE KITCHEN LOL a lot of people still don't know you can do this now lmaoo

[canthemanic]

I don't even need cars but I desperately want Preteens as a base game update and maybe Fairies and Hotels as DLCs. It's so weird when kids grow up into teens who look exactly like young adults.

[explorationgmer]

They gotta fix where sims stays on the table and eat with their family. It’s annoying when they get up and go eat in bathroom.

[NaoyaToudou]

When Sims 5 comes out, it MUST have Seasons as a base feature. In real life, seasons persistently impact us. As a life simulator, there’s no debating against the fact.

[cryingwatercolours]

8:57 NO. we do NOT talk about pentagonal roofs. imagine my despair when i went to make a pentagonal gazebo and found out it’s physically impossible to align neither the pentagonal nor the hexagonal roofs with the room! how bizarre to add something non functional like this!

[pedrocouto]

Truth is The Sims went full-greedy mode after TS3, in my opinion. The Sims 2 is still one of the best - if not THE best - of Sims series and that's because there's a lot of attention to the details.

[vstreetlove]

Unpopular opinion: I actually am not eager for the next generation of the Sims. I want the Sims 4 to get the improvements and stability we deserve. I’m always so surprised by how much the Sim 4 didn’t have. I was an avid sims 2 player then didn’t play much of sims 3 and then I got into sims 4 after toddlers were added. Great video!

[StoryGirl]

12:53 The lack of toddlers was why when the game first came out I took one look at it and noped all the way back to my TS2 saves and mostly forgot TS4 existed for years.

[daniel.holbrook]

I could be wrong but I remember it being a lot easier to keep Sims on track in 2014. Now whenever I have a Sim leave the house they're immediately bombarded by conversations with random strangers they've never interacted with. Sometimes they'll walk across the entire zone to talk to someone I never told them to talk to. Every community lot is just unbridled mayhem, to the point where it's nearly impossible sometimes to do something as simple as order a drink at the bar because random strangers keep trying to inject themselves into my life and override my command to order a drink.

[absolutelydandyza]

4:36 Maxis aren’t the greedy ones, It’s EA. Can we stop confusing the game dev team to the most greedy publishing company please! I don’t even think Maxis would even want those monetary features. But EA process to milk them dry since 1999 after acquiring them.

[ember]

the game only adding a WHOLE MISSING life stage only THREE YEARS INTO the game's lifespan is the most outrageous to me. Like, that sent the game all the way back to Sims 1! Only two heights: children and adult (teens are just slightly thinner adults, same height) and NO toddlers. Actually, sims 1 had pools and cars since release!

[TheUltima_Werewolf]

I miss the 2019 menu so bad. It was nice to be able to see all of the dlcs in one spot and not be bombarded with all sorts of icons

[BillyVell]

God how I wish could go have the "open neighbourhoods" thing. Like, I think everyone knows that a full open world would be impossible, and it was fairly controversial in TS3 in the first place due to how laggy it could be (not to mention kinda non-practical imo), but not having to see a loading screen to go the house RIGHT NEXT TO YOURS that is already loaded from the outside is not too much to ask. I think we should keep talking about it until one day EA manages to add it.

[cryingwatercolours]

10:39 the hair swatch update frustrates me so much! randomly some hairs don’t have the same colours, and when i choose a newer one and use an older hair on a different outfit, it always makes them blonde! it’s so weird

[DT-xzhb]

I can’t with all the sharp sudden sounds in this video

[daztora]

I'd love removal of loading screens too, but the game still chugs the FPS for the silliest thing's. I'd like them to fix the performance above all else.

[inditsnotdenon]

Infants and toddlers are still so bugged. I had 4 infants and it was impossible becuase of how often interactions would just cancel. It took 6 in game hours to change one diaper. Its terrible. Replayed the sims 2 - easy, big household worked out well

[cryingwatercolours]

15:20 this advertisement has me imagining the sims team picking out poc with the most basic hairstyles just so they could look inclusive when really poc hairstyles are still severely lacking lmao

[myglasseskeepslipping]

It’s good to remember how far we’ve come since 2014, but we still have some glaring issues left. I’ve been yearning for the ability to choose the secondary dye color/hair accessory color independent from hair color for YEARS. Why do I have to have black hair if I want my sim to have blue dye in their hair? Why can’t I choose a silver hair clip if my sim has blonde hair? I miss you, sims 3 color wheels… but honestly mostly on this and bb objects like beds where I want a different bedspread with a different frame
