Horse Spotlight:

EYEC Robin Hood "Robin” 16.2 hh 10 y.o. grey OTTB Gelding

Y’know those tiktoks about people who got green horses and trained it themselves as teenagers and now they have really weird buttons? That’s Robin.

Mark got Robin free fresh off the track when he was 16 as his first official horse. Awful choice for his first horse but somehow it worked out and Robin became a functioning member of horse society.

Robin is a… sporadic character. He is an athletic boy who loves zooming over jumps and going cross country schooling and is all around happy-go-lucky as long as its Mark and only Mark. No one is quite sure what happened to Rob, but he has intense trust issues with people, and doesn’t quite know how to interact with other horses but tries his best.

Robin is a special boy, but no doubt he is Mark's heart horse!

Idk why I keep saying "I think this should happen" about my own AU that doesn't even exist as coherent plot I can just say whatever I want

Things I think sims 4 is getting wrong that they should do better next time

The system of controlling characters across multiple locations. Literally the worst it's been in any Sims game so far. I get the tradeoffs, but this is not it. Heavily discourages large households (since you can't control them all at the same time if you want to make use of the fun stuff you can do in locations other than home).

The ridiculous amount of mechanics that impact Nothing outside of themselves. Shoutout to university "guest lectures" that do Absolutely Nothing. You don't get a skill-up, you don't get a trait, you don't get an object, you get NOTHING. Other than for the aspiration, there is literally no reason to ever go there, ever. And think of the lost opportunity in not being allowed to invite a stay over guest to be a roommate instead of joining the household??? And the teenagers "running away to a party" with 0 impact on anything??? Sims 4 has an amazing diversity of things to do, especially if you have all the expansions, but way too many of them are complete nothingburgers. Special shoutout to the lack of interrelation between expansions (the skills high school should teach but doesn't for no in-universe reason...), but really, this is an overall problem.

The aging mechanics. And I don't mean the part where you can age up any time even if you have auto-aging on (though I think that's wrong too). I mean the part where instead of giving you extra time to get ahead on the next life stage, all life stages before young adult (used to be before teen, then they introduced teen aspirations) turn into a race to Collect All The Shinies Before You No Longer Can. The Top-Notch traits, as rewarding as they feel, make large households completely unfun as the gameplay is fully eaten by trying to make sure all three of your triplets get all of them. Similarly for child aspirations: completing all of them gives you a ridiculous advantage for the rest of your life, and they are not mutually exclusive, and you get just enough time in the standard lifespan to complete all of them. Oh, there are other fun child mechanics? Voidcritter battles? Festival of Youth? Sorry, no time for that, too busy trying to get a high score on the typing simulator.

Overall, this is a problem with the aspiration system. You can pursue any amount of them at the same time by switching around as you go about your life, and there's no reason to ever stop. In Sims 2 once a sim completed their lifelong aspiration they were happy for the rest of their life and you'd only need to stay on top of their needs. Which would mean you can have them have kids and focus on those kids, leaving adults to the background. (I don't remember Sims 3 well because it slowed my PC down to a crawl, so while I have happy memories, I don't think I explored it anywhere near as thoroughly) In Sims 4 you can play a single sim until you're thoroughly sick of the game (which isn't helped by the other points on this list) and there's never a reasonable ending point, because instead of transitioning into a graceful endgame state, aspirations just incentivize playing the same sim more and more to make optimal use of their rewards. The optimal way to play is to make your sim a jack of every single trade they ever touch at once. They want to read a book? Quick, switch to the Renaissance Sim aspiration! The necessity to switch between aspirations to have actions register is especially awkward - you can't just live your life and ignore the bonuses you're accruing in the background, no you have to actively OPTIMIZE. (Special shoutout to the design of some aspirations, like the Sulani one not accounting for native people who were born there at all, but considering I think the whole system should be reworked, I won't go into that lol)

This is a minor complaint, but the traits system? Kind of sucks. They had it right when they started introducing also Lifestyles, Likes and whatever else. (Character values are also fun, but then they transition into traits on age up, which adds to the problem). Reward traits should not be lumped in with personality traits, and store-bought traits should not be lumped in with aspiration rewards and neither should be lumped in with age-up rewards. (Which I have a problem with, as I already said, but that's a different thing) Seeing the "the most interesting sim in the world" achievement pop up after buying up half the reward store is just sad, especially when they are the same traits all your other sims have, because "fast cleaner", "waterproof" and "storm chaser" are just practical. And the former two are not personality traits. They're superpowers. Make a separate superpower category and put things there, okay?

Back to family gameplay for another go (it was my favorite in earlier games so I'm super salty), a lack of interaction options. Toddlers can only play with each other if you have a (huge, expensive, extremely unwieldy without mods) dollhouse??? Infants can't interact with each other at all, even as they're already crawling??? Neither can play with random objects that aren't toys??? The toddler jungle gym doesn't allow communal play, every toddler for themselves??? This is just straight up half assed. Children can't play in a group unless you buy an object that enables it??? The family gameplay in sims 4 is absolutely pathetic. It was from the start, when they didn't even have toddlers, but even introducing toddlers AND infants didn't fix it. You can do an immense amount of things in Sims 4... as long as you're only playing adults.

Anyway, they should make a separate RPG gameplay mode, where the superpowered sims you have made can lightsaber fight, explore treacherous jungles, snoop through an abandoned laboratory and whatever else with an HP bar, attack options and whatnot. The game wants it. The game YEARNS for it. You can be a soldier as an at-home career, and all you do is train and yell at other people? There's an object specifically to train in martial arts, but it just gives you regular fitness? There are vampires and werewolves in this game! (And both are presented as dangerous, except I haven't seen a single werewolf ever do anything more than annoy me by making my sim "cower in fear" by transforming in a public place and then just kind of hanging out there)

Also, fix all the bugs and botched interactions. I tried to have my character schedule a birthday party for the next day at their parents' place, and you know what happened when the time came? Nothing. I traveled to their place, and still nothing. I had to cancel the party and make a new one without scheduling. This is so much bullshit.
