Hi guys ... few days a go my laptop decide to give up on me completely and LOST all the content/data ... The days which I had without Sims put me on thoughts about Sims franchise and its community in general . How many years pass from the time TS4 got release ?! I don't complain about ,,we don't get that or that what we had back in TS3,, ...the complain I got to, is that ,we get exactly same things in a way or another which we had with the previous versions of Sims ... I wish there we could have something else/different than graphics , dunno ...I did bought the new pack parenthood mainly for its CAS items with the hope in mind ,that there gonna be nice/great CC made out of it , my family's doesn't have the luck to have kids and if they do , that will not be for long (I am just not into parenthood at all hehehe)... I am playing Sims for about 10 years or so, I think :hmm

, I am not saying that I am thinking to stop , but I do feel like , every time I get back in game it takes a bit of time in order to decide what the hack I wanna do ...Back in TS3 every time I was hype to log in and play till dawn ,seriously , now in TS4 it doesn't happen that often anymore . Just to understand how I feel , before my laptop problem I had around 2k CC more or less , now I have 100 or less :hmm

and is because I am not 100% motivate to go and look hours for CC .
I don't know ... all this RANT I think is manly coming from vampire pack ... We got them that's AWESOME but the only thing I was doing with them is hunt human sim nothing more , I tried creating a vampire club and add the interactions :use powers and drink plasma ...they start killing each other or other sims outside of the club (I had the vampire mega mod I think is named ) the bar where I set as hang out end up being a cemetery hehehe , the spa tray is no use to vampires as we can't add no plasma juice or anything which has to do with plasma ... recipes for vampire (plasma salad which make them feel sick ) butlers are a PAIN IN THE ASS they are completlllllllyyyyyy uselesssss , let beside they are cooking allllll the time but you cant use them in any vampire house (well , perhaps only as food , yeah :D ) you can't make use of them at all as butler , I had to dl and dl all kind of mods to be able to change all the butlers which was dying next day on my lot for being toooo old ..literally my butlers were all on death bed when I hire them (with MCC mod I think I delete around 30 or more butlers ) I don't know if its only me which have this problems but seriously I end up spending more time in CAS than actually playing or building and never finish it ... The whole Sims franchise to me it feels that is going backwards ... We get expansions unfinished or with no trace that can be use in line with other packs (ex: vampire pack , to me this pack is like a new Sims game ) I never EVER play as Alien or ghost ..plant sims whahahahaha whats the use of them in this Sims version ?!(We can easily make a better plant sim with CC/mods) Vampires, some of them powers doesn't even belong to vampire race , I am scare to what they will bring or add to the new supernatural races ...For cry out loud I don't want zombies or fairy's again ...I never liked Tinkerbell !!!
Modding community it feels to me that has been decrease than what we use to have for TS3 ...I know this for sure (there are a lot of mods which are outdated ) ... Skyrim has more active modding community than this game , Skyrim might be the king but its a outdated game with out any trace that the new patch gonna be release any time soon ....
The real reason behind this thread is : How do you guys stay motivate for Sims and push you to look forward to future patch to come ...one thing is sure we gonna have same thing as TS2 TS3 had ..unfortunately !!!
Sorry for such a long broken english grammar but I really do wanna know how other/you guys feel about TS4 so I can decide if I'll keep invest my time or keep the game on standby ...
PS: This are just few complains towards EA/Maxis TS4

Well, I mostly agree with you on this.

I only or mainly play with stupid goals. I use MCCC quite a bit in my game, mainly to stop aging and stuff like that for all the sims I edit in CAS.
So I mainly rework ALL the sims in my game or almost. And I play only one family of immortal with whom I wanna do all careers and reach all personal goals, all skills and a couple other stuff like that.
But man, it takes time -_-

I am a big fashion fan and I wouldn't be playing the game if S4S didn't exist and gave me the possibility to edit so much stuff.
Also I wouldn't play at all If I had not manage to edit a slider mod to lift the sims above the ground therefore allowing me to create good looking heels/boots and so on.
Unfortunately the mod was finally broken last week... I don't know how to fix it and the original creator stopped modding since a long time now already. Fortunately I can still copy the sliders in use with MCCC (I have to copy the full face a sim for that but I am fine with it.)
It still sucks though because I wanted to publish it recently and 2 weeks later -> broken... So I cannot really publish my CC (at least the shoes)
But I am seriously drifting off topic.

To summarize, I believe the modding community is what is making me play the game and not the game itself...

Please do not contact me via pm for help and simply post in the appropriate section of the forum so that everyone can see and help you there.

I literally died at "they start killing each other or other sims outside of the club" hahah. that's so funny. Seems legit to me. To be honest, i played sims 2 without any cc or mods and s3 with barely the necessary (nraass mods, maybe 3 or 4). I also don't really "play play" the game but stage everything because i know what i want and how i can make it possible instead of relying on what actually happens in game.

Having said that, my s2 gameplay was bug-less and it was perfectly fine and fun... i think it's just how sims 4 is built... to be more.. all over the place.. maybe it was that how it's supposed to work haha.

it makes me feel better im not the only one that doesn't 'play play' lol i mean i do play it but its usually for a set up scene for a story so a lot of times there are bugs I dont even know exist cause if it doesnt happen in my story i wont use it mess with it in game. A lot of business glitches I missed out but I saw the restaurant glitches right away when they occurred. Vampires though has been the most fun for me cause of how much I have been to add via story line and it lets me come up with some unique ways to use the in game animations ( even if what i use the animation for is quite different than its intended purpose. ) that said even though I desperately want back some features i had with previous sims games, mostly tbh all i wanted back was the three basics, toddlers which we finally got, which was ridiculous we had to wait for, pets, and supernaturals. if i were to picky id add seasons to that . I really think if they would just make those aspects staple part of the base game then they could focus on all this other interesting new poo they could give us but rather instead we have to feel excited about getting the same stuff. Its like at christmas and you know every year aunt marge gets you a horrible sweater but you have to pretend its the newest most hip sweater you ever got.We damn it aunt marge i got 29 identical sweaters enough is enough lol
