@@Daiska_Plays yes. They could have. If they had released the sims 4 properly all the way back in 2014. Had actually good quality control from the start. They absolutely could have done it. It’s nearly impossible now, since they’re like 100% used to half assifying their entire game catalog(not just the sims). They take advantage of modders more like. With the mentality of “oh, this doesn’t work? Eh why waste resources trying to fix it when we have modders in our expansive fan base? They’ll always do it anyway.” Even if the base game was made fine, EA can still do things like this. Modders can do it, figure out what works and what can break a game and successfully make a mod to avoid making the game worse is mind boggling. If EA studios could pay attention to detail, properly test, and assess their DLC, updates, and patches we wouldn’t have this problem. Also, they could have a dedicated team that works on the many…many…mannnnny underlying issues of the entire game itself. It’s a multibillion dollar company I see no excuses to the level of neglect the sims 4 suffers.

1. Everything from SimRealist is incredibly well done and by the way it's not one creator, it's an entire team. 2. ItsKatato handed all her mods to other creators because she got hired by Maxis and wasn't allowed to continue to mod. I use her preteen mod that was adopted by adeepindigo. I felt a little sad when you said abandoned because that sounds harsh, she didn't want to stop modding she just had to adopt them out 😅 3. I also use like half a dozen of adeepindigo's mods. They are quite cool. 4. Lumpinou is by far my favorite modder. I use almost all of her mods but I wouldn't be able to enjoy this game without her Relationship and Pregnancy Overhaul and her LGBTQ+ mod. Those two along with First Impressions guide a lot of my gameplay. 5. Chingyu's mods are mostly stuff in the background as well as traits. Their Age Up Add Preferences mod along with Helaene's preferences plus mod also majorly direct my gameplay.

Also a quick shoutout to one of my favorite mods at the moment, Meaningful Stories by roburky is such a gamechanger that makes emotions feel more "realistic" and having emotional inertia really helps avoid the instant switching of emotions.

Adeepindigo’s new active babysitter career is public and it is really cool, it’s just for teenagers and university students and it would be great for a storyline of a teen that starts as a babysitter, when they grown to young adult they can have a family aspiration, they can go to college to become a preschool teacher and after graduation they can work in the active daycare. The writer career overhaul, made by Adeepindigo too, makes the base game writer career more realistic without been overwhelming. And freelance chef from the same creator is really chill if people are tired of the base game cooking career. Currently trying the online teacher career and cybersecurity career. I haven’t play with those mods enough but they are definitely more challenging ways to play with at home jobs. Not recommend if the player prefers their sims to get constantly promoted and become rich quickly, theses mods require the sims to gain several skills and complete different requirements, especially the cybersecurity career.

Unfortunately there is nothing quite like that. If you are interested in a sort of Cyberpunk experience, you might want to have a look at Llazyneiph‘s mods. In his Cybernetix mod, you can equip your sims with cyberparts, that will give your sims certain advantages but also risks (like viruses or even cyberpsychosis). Llazyneiph also has other gameplay mods like the royalty mod and, since quite recently, the Survivor mod. Every mod comes with custom items and custom functionality. It also puts restrictions in place to create a more immersive and challenging experience (i.e. no walkbys, true OTG, etc.). I‘d recommend checking it out. It‘s all public release.

The lifetime aspiration mod is really interesting but it changes your game so that when you do complete an aspiration, you no longer get a reward trait. Instead you have to buy it in the rewards store. I actually really don’t like that. And the new aspirations don’t give you reward traits either. So the mod makes the aspirations take longer to complete, yet at the end of it you don’t even get a reward. You could cut out the middle man and just buy up the reward traits instead of bothering with different aspirations. It’s a cool idea but I feel like the removing of the reward traits from the completion of the aspiration makes the mod a no-go for me.

My question about the aspiration one is how do we obtain aspiration points along the way, then? We no longer have whims, which were a pretty reliable way to get some points quickly. The wants rarely give you more than 25 points at a time, and there's no good way to earn enough points for rewards without the milestones. I kind of miss getting aspiration points just for having high needs, tbh. lol
