Yeah, pretty much. The best Sims game doesn't exist, it's a Frankenstein monster that would take bits of the 4 games.

I love the idea of 3 with the open city and NPC progression, but wow this game's an unstable glitchy mess. It's not even close to be playable without many unofficial fixes, and even then, it runs like shit.

The only things I'd take from 4 would be maybe moods (nice to have, I guess) and the more organic body models, with more seemless morphs. 4's gameplay is boring as hell, nothing interesting ever happens. And they got rid of create-a-style which is a huge creativity downgrade.

I love the console games before they became straight up ports of the pc ones. I really really miss them.
