Yves Posted August 12, 2022 Posted August 12, 2022 Do y'all know custom The Sims 3 worlds that combine features of all expansion packs (e.g., dive spots, equestrian center)?

Sacrifice Posted August 22, 2022 Posted August 22, 2022 everything she said scamming players with every release.

EA promised to fix all the bugs with patch updates but we only got one so far. Some of the older packs are still not fixed too. Dine out is still a huge mess. The over reliance on modders to fix the game is not doing it for me anymore. EA are the worst.
WERKER Posted August 22, 2022 Posted August 22, 2022 I've just caught up with Cindy and oh my god I just bawled my eyes out at that video.. I can't believe it. Everything she wanted just taken.. honestly so heartbreaking.

Dine Out is so upsetting too bc i always forget what a mess it is and go to restaurants only to waste hours waiting for food which doesn’t even come half the time.

I loved the concept in the trailer but it still doesn't work. Even running your own restaurant is a buggy mess.
Snow Flower Posted August 25, 2022 Posted August 25, 2022 Is anyone else really disappointed with the new wants system? I really thought we were going to get something that's more similar to the Sims 2 wants and fears
RihannaLoverrr Posted August 31, 2022 Posted August 31, 2022 Like 90% of the replies being people shocked the game has lore

I've been waiting for BoringBonesTV's Old Sunset world where all elements of TS3 expansion packs will be in one world. Hopefully, it doesn't lag too much.
Crashed Posted September 14, 2022 Posted September 14, 2022 The base game becomes F2P in October https://www.ea.com/games/the-sims/news/play-the-sims-4-for-free-beginning-october-18
Nip Tuck Posted September 16, 2022 Posted September 16, 2022 so TS5 is allegedly being announced next month?

But when Windenburg had a ton of lore done super well literally no one cared so they stopped bothering.

The stories in the base games were fun but they were only really there to inspire players to create their own. Now people rely on them so heavily to have any kind of fun. It’s good to see some people creating their own still though.

If they started on The Sims 2 you would know there was lore because the stories of all the families popped up immediately when starting the game. Or even with The Sims 3 cause the description of sunset valley was there immediately explaining it was set before Pleasantview and TS2. I like making my own stories too but I love going through the pre-made families and playing them rotationally too, I think the option for both should exist. Just whatever suits your play style.

Oh 100%. It’s just interesting how players who started during 3 or 4 never cared and now they do all of a sudden. Sims 3 basically gave up on lore after Sunset Valley and after that the families were incredibly generic but people didn’t care that’s why when 4 came out there was no real demand. Only in the last few years or so.

The Caliente twins personalities being switched, Mary-Sue and Daniel being adults residing in sunlit tides, Bella Goth dead in lunar lakes. Even Don Lothario appearing in Riverview was annoying to me but at least it was explained with the time machine.

I probably don’t use the term ‘lore’ properly, but when I say I want it I mean I want a world with a storyline that my character(s) can either become a part of or completely ignore like we had with The Sims 2. In Windenberg the families don’t know each other and aren’t involved in each others lives and whenever you open a new world in The Sims 4 it’s as though everyone has had their memories wiped (even down to how when you open a family they’re literally all standing outside of their house looking around dazed and confused).
