Features and fixes that need to be added soon as possible

Need to be an option to be able to slow down and disable aging. You can extend the time of day but it’s painfully slow. I feel like that is a huge feature that needs to be added to extend the life of the of the game. Many ppl want their characters they created to be played for a long time. Otherwise they are just starting a new family over and over again essentially. It’s fine if some like that but a no aging options and adding an age threshold would be nice. Bit disappointed that wasn’t part of their timeline to add.

Improve accessibility with the UI to make it easier in build mode and city management. Way too many drop down and sections. I remember playing sim 3 as a kid and I could easily navigate through these and pick what I wanted. It’s the same as the character interactions. Too many drop downs and it feels cluttered.

Character can’t multi task which is I think the very old Sims could do like eat and talk to people. They really need to focus on that and the AI behavior when it comes to traits and needs. I’m guessing this is something in keen of a update rather than a fix though it’s hard to tell.

Also some activities that you do feel sluggish like they feel too short or too long to accomplish something.

If there aim is 2026 I think it’s crucial they focus on some of these to flesh out sooner rather than later.

This is number 1 for me, and plenty others say the same. Legacy gameplay is all well and good, but that is only one gameplay style, and many life-simmers are more inclined to invest heavily in a single character. You can't do that if they age up, get auto-retired from their careers and then die.

If they don't die from random unspecified causes before that.

Yea and starting a new character over and over again feels tedious. Everything feels either too fast pace or a little slow.
