*REQUIRES THE SIMS 4 GAME UPDATES.
The Sims 4 definitely feels like the next step in the series. Some features that were missing at launch, such as pools, have since been added which is great but it still feels like they intentionally left features/items out of the base game so they could maximize expansion and content packs which is unfortunate.

"Everything feels like a step forward, even though there are some aspects that we would like to see more polished. Still, a great choice for The Sims fans."

"Even with the missing content, The Sims 4 delivers a gameplay experience that is highly-entertaining and addictive for both series veterans and newcomers."

"The way they interact with each other, the way they can eat, watch TV and chat about underpants or spaceships at the same time is a marvellous technical achievement that puts the rest of the game, with its missing pools and open worlds, into context."

"And yes, it is another Sims iteration, but at the same time this one feels clean and fresh. The emotional interactions are really interesting, and the combination of these with different Sims' personality traits and aspirations can make for some great unpredictability."
