The Sims 4

The Sims 4 is a glitched out, poorly developed mess of a game. This game singlehandedly destroys all progress that EA made with The Sims 3, and adds in such frustratingly poor controls that it renders the game a nightmare to play through!

The controls struggled with transitioning to consoles. All the exciting career choices are now gone! Terrain tools have disappeared. Sims neighborhoods are now ghost towns, and even the burglars are gone! Half the features from previous Sims games have been mysteriously removed from Sims 4 with no reasonable explanation! 


The bugs which plagued the earlier PC release of Sims 4 have not only failed to have been patched in the console release but actively made worse!  Sometimes your Sim's skill and health bars get stuck onscreen and will harass the player until you reload the entire game! The game also inexplicably erases game saves at will so you can lose all your hard work you did on your Sims in the blink of an eye with no explanation! A menu bug freezes all progress until you restart your game, multiple times in a row.



But it gets even more pathetic. Audio and animations often execute out of sync with each other. When you load Build Mode, the frame rate drops to a crawl! Even moving around your playspace can result in framerate spikes. Somehow the PC graphical errors have been made worse on the console ports, and none of the PC glitches EA has ever bothered to fix!The console version does add toddlers, pools, dishwashers and other features that the PC version still lacks, but it's not enough to salvage a broken gaming experience. 

This game is worse than mediocre its insultingly terrible! No cars even permeate the roads your Sims walk on. The shocking lack of detail in Sims 4 ruins the entire experience, its a definitive downgrade from previous installments with no innovation whatsoever. A waste of both your time and money!

Final Verdict:
Graphics: 4/10
Sound: 3/10
Gameplay: 2/10
Replay Value: 1/10
Overall: 2/10 (Garbage!)
