I'm beginning to come around to TS4, it does looks fun but I'm not sure where other than CAS/Build/Emotions where there's this leap foward, something that makes it comepletely different & better than any other sims game. I cant see its USP but i'll probably still buy it.
But if rabitholes were removed, why are there no shopping, or lots for schools and careers? (Side point, the careers in game are stupid, there is like 1 or 2 normal ones. The rest are a fantasy-sized mess) Like I said I get TS3 was a mess on certain levels but, instead of fixing them they took the lazy way out and removed it. I'm certain in 2014 it is possible to have an open world that is lively in well functioning. CASt was an awesome tool that I already miss. It doesn't make sense that we have to go back to the days where we downloaded tons off CC just for recolors let alone actual new meshes and items.
The CAS and the sims itself does look better in TS4, but due no open world and no create a style alone i wont buy that game. And not too mention all those other things they took away, theres nothing fun left, the gameplay will be extremly boring and get old fast.
the open world wasn't fun though, like whats fun about an open world where every lot is a ****ing rabbit hole & if they aren't a rabbit hole then they're completely dead
TS4's 10 second loading screen but lively lots >>>>>>

That stream was really good, build mode looks like so much fun now.

Even the restaurant was a rabbit hole
At least we know that we'll be able to see inside every single community lot in TS4.
After watching all these gameplay and yesterday's live stream, I must say, I can't wait!!
I really don't care that there won't be an open world.. the loading screens are very short anyway, there will be lots of sims walking around, no rabbit holes.. and I like all these new emotions and reactions, very good. Of course I would rather having a visible school/work place where you can see your sim studying or working but this ain't possible atm so if we can't have that then there is no point of having these community lots. Now we have an actual visible community lots, that's exciting

Shopping, Cafe's and Restaurants are all coming. We've already seen some more of the Community lots we will be getting. We also get Nightclubs and Bars in the base game.
Careers as building was removed because these issues kept happening where you'd be locked out of the lot because Sims who were trying to get to work in bigger worlds, got stuck.
It was okay in normal size worlds, but it would mean bigger custom worlds would have this issue.
