With all of these recent changes, the pronouns, and the updated Goth family, I really wanted to take a moment to reflect on Sims 4. So, this video is all about comparing Sims 4 from 2014 to 2022.
Sims 4 was a very different game in 2014 and it's really eye opening to see how much has changes in the last 8 years. I hope you'll enjoy this look back at Sims 4 in 2014!

All aspirations feel like tutorials, there's not enough consequences when bad things happen, and sims end up feeling like erratic schizophrenic nut jobs when they can't get their emotions under control.

You pretty much need to install optimization mods in order for it to run properly, and even then it still doesn't fix all of the issues 100%. The Sims 3 was very ambitious and probably even ahead of its time, however, I'm pretty sure with modern PC technology it would be possible to bring back open world neighborhoods again without it completely tanking PC performance, so long as they actually optimize the game correctly.

  • Coming into Sims 3 from Sims 2 felt like a natural step forward. 3 didn't have everything from 2, but overall it was an improvement on what was already in Sims 2. Coming into Sims 4 from 3, however, felt like a massive step backwards. While the graphics were better, everything else was a downgrade or just gone entirely. Knowing that they already had the systems in Sims 3 only made it even more frustrating. It also significantly changed the overall playstyle of the game as well. Needing to go through a long loading screen just to visit your neighbor meant that it was easier to just have your neighbor come over to your house. So, rather than being out and about in the neighborhood, your families either ended up as shut ins or traveled together in zerg groups. You couldn't have one sim going to the store while another is visiting their friend's house, while another was out fishing. It became all or nothing, and nothing was the choice with less headaches. It's a little better now, but nowhere near as good as 3 was.

    • I will be honest, I hate the cartoony look of sims 4. The way the colours look and everything just don't do it for me. Graphics wise yes it does look better, but the style is just not for me. Especially when it came to the supernatural life stages like vampire, werewolf, etc. the game felt too... fake? childish? I am not sure how to describe it but the overall aesthetic of Sims 4 especially with the supernatural life stages just aren't a vibe with me. I completely agree with you that the sims 4 is such a downgrade gameplay wise. Only reason I stuck to sims 4 was because of mods but I recently figured out how to implement them to sims 3 and I have not gone back. I miss too much of the mechanics from sims 3 and sims 4 just feels empty.

No pools, no ladders, no toddlers, all which were included in base games before it. Just sucks because I can FEEL like the game devs are trying but EA being EA wants money before anything and they developed a method with packs to keep it just fun enough to buy new packs but just boring enough that it isn't enough.

  • I forgot about some of these! It's a reminder of why so many people still want Sims 4 to continue and feel it's missing so much. That said, depending on the feature or update plus the current age of the game it might be too late to get some things done, at least not in a way that functions completely like it should. I feel the same way about the base game now as I did then. I just want my sims to have better personalities. I recreated some of my favorite sims I'd made in Sims 3 in 4 and they were extremely chatty, always moving, and very much the same despite having different personalities. When asked why three traits instead of five SGGrant said that more traits would cancel each other out and makes sims more vanilla. I didn't even recognize my sims in Sims 4. They had far better personalities with the five (eventually seven after uni) traits in Sims 3 than the three to four in Sims 4. I recreated a few of them in Sims 2 and with the point scales they were still better than Sims 4.

  • Sims should get a base game repackage and include pets, cats and dogs and parenthood with it. The game would feel more complete considering it would have more than 3 worlds and if you include pets from the get go then more families would have pets, seasons is weird to be something locked by paywall, and parenthood adds alot of drama and story ideas that allow players to create more stories from the getgo. And maybe 2 more empty worlds that are more stylized. If they did that then sims 4 would finally feel like a full game. Also including this 3 dlc's as base game then they can do more dlc around them (not that its the best thing to add more stuff to pay for on sims 4) like then stuff like my first pet would make much more sense.

  • The thumbnail got me thinking about the biggest difference I've noticed, not just in base game but including all the packs. The entire style of the aesthetics and the gameplay has shifted to suit player's expectations and desires. There's always been kind of a pull between the chaos players and the nice little family players and I think the game is tilting towards the latter. At first Sims 4 was more like the previous sims games, a weird sitcom inspired/Simpsons-like caricature of the world (although maybe watered down compared 1-3). But players have been really focused on asking for inclusivity and representation and I understand why and have no problem with it, it's just interesting to see how that's shifted the game. The best example I think is to look at packs like City Living. Before that pack the game was a very homogeneous North American suburban simulator, and City Living added "diversity" and "cultural representation" . . . but it didn't have very much to do with real world cultures, none of it was very specific or accurate. Compare that to My Wedding Stories or kits like Courtyard Oasis, Fashion Street, and Incheon Arrivals and you'll see what I mean. And I LOVE all the items in those packs. I love having more hair colors and eye colors and customizable skin colors, but ultimately it amounts to a move towards realism and away from cartoonishness. Also look at how the base game tried to pass off the cheese hair and the ketchup hair as natural hair colors, compared to the newer more nuanced and muted additions. And finally we have the Goth family update, most importantly Bella, and personally I'm not a fan. They took an iconic character who's something of a caricature, but one with interesting characteristics not just a flat stereotype, and turned her into an ideal modern woman. Bella Goth was never meant to be aspirational. She probably had plastic surgery, she wore risqué clothing, she had an exquisite, unorthodox taste in decor, she married a very questionable man yet she was perfectly faithful to him. New Bella just doesn't seem like she could get abducted by aliens and if she did it would feel darker because she feels more like a real woman. I wish the refresh had just darkened her skin tone a bit and made her proportions slightly less exaggerated, but I really like old Bella's face. She was beautiful but very unique. New Bella's face is actually incredible, but it doesn't look like Bella.

  • Hi there! Thank you so much for your work and your video! 🙂 It reminded my first experience with The Sims 4 some years ago! This game has evolved so much over the years. It's amazing to have such a community for a game! Even if I leave the game for many months, I always come back to the game and get hooked with it for days/weeks/months. It's incredible how addictive it can become depending on your feelings/objectives/creativity/ spare time. I suppose no game has offered me this sense of freedom yet. I remember, from my first experience with the first version of The Sims 4 that I felt so frustrated... There were lots of bugs (some are still here but I can assure you that it's fewer) indeed but so many missing objects/functions/ gameplay. Yes they weren't even toddlers... And when they put toddlers in... They were not able to take the stairs! I did not know you needed the Skill I thought it was a bug 😄 Moreover, the neighborhood was so "small"... If you wanted to go to the next-door house, you had to go through the long loading screen! What a difference from The Sims 3... They made a lot of efforts to better and optimize our experience, now there are "fake cars/life/animals" in the streets... It sometimes feels like a dollhouse world but you can walk even further in your neighborhood without loading times. However, a few months ago I launched the Sims 3 and asked my Sim to go on an Island... My sim took her broomstick, took the subway, took the boat, etc... With no loading at all! That's such a pity that they stepped down on this part. But The Sims 4 remains a great game (with many DLC), the building aspect is much easier...optimized, and the CC & mods (even a multi-player mod) offer us so many possibilities... The community, again, is one of the friendliest and most creative communities, so caring and friendly...! 🥰 I'm really happy to be a part of it! Thank you all mates! 🙂 I can say for sure The Sims is a legendary game that is still unique, it remains a game that no other could replace! Can't wait for the next Sims game...! See you there! And until then, I wish you your best and nicest experience on The Sims 4! ✌️

  • I think they purposely made the base game very “basic” so that simmers would be obligated to buy the content put out in order to enhance their game experience. As they saw a good response from sim fans they rewarded with really good upgrades. In turn the CC is not as needed over the years. I wish they wouldn’t come up with a sims 5. They just need to continue to upgrade the game and release packs, kits, whatever. I personally was not a sims 4 fan. Later in 2018 I started playing and fell in love. I would hate to see sims 4 become less relevant because of a sims 5 just like it happened with the previous versions.

One of which started in 2014 so all the base stuff was normal to me, I didn’t even know about most of these updates. The other is building videos so most of the updates are item related. Cool video!

  • I personally loved the seasons drop, don't hear many people praise it as much as I think it deserves. Prob cos we had to pay extra for it rather than it being in the base game lol. Nonetheless it adds such a nice feel to the game, and acc makes you feel like you're playing a life simulation game.

    • @@Lulababyyy Yeah, that makes sense. Ideally, I would like a new engine/system that allows us to import content from TS4. From the teasers I've seen, it seems like there's a chance they might go in that direction. EA did something similar with the Mass Effect Trilogy. Only problem is, you know these guys love money. So they'll probably choose whatever strategy is the most profitable.

  • I got the game when it launched on PS4. I think it launched with newcrest and we also had vampires, city living and the glamour stuff pack and some party stuff pack. It might have launched with toddlers and ghosts but I think this came early in release. It was my first sims game and I enjoyed it, but my house was so basic. And now when I start a new game it’s really hard to make such a bad looking house even with base game stuff - they improved the look of the game a lot. I remember them introducing the intro with Alex which I always played for the bonus :)

  • I’ve always hated the option to choose masculine or feminine clothing because masculine clothing never fits feminine frames and feminine clothing never fits masculine frames, so I feel like EA just did it to tick off a box without actually making clothes fit on all frames. There are only a few items that fit on both frames and it’s just so frustrating. If the clothes fit then it would be an amazing option.
