i wish ts4 packs would stop making such a huge part of the gameplay “this makes this part of the game easier! gain skills 10x faster! never get hungry! make $5000 every minute!” the game is already too easy please i don’t want a magic tree i want a clinically depressed man in a band who lives in the world’s shittiest apartment in gotham city i want him to suffer

#why not focus on realism and impacting your sim in actually meaningful ways #they waste time w this i feel #i’m probably having nostalgia bias but i don’t remember sims 2 or 3 doing this #to this extent #(i haven’t played sims 1 in over a decade so idk lmao) #in past games it’d be like ‘work on a car with your teen and teach them to drive’ #and ts4 would be like ‘Buying This Car Will Make Your Family Live Forever’ #obviously i like supernatural elements in sims games like hello. but i don’t like how sims 4 does it #it’s too cutesy and childish for one thing but also it’s Always there to make your sims lives easier
