I've tried to play The Sims 3 & 4 several times, and I always end up feeling like I do not understand how the gameplay is supposed to work. My character doesn't like to listen to me most of the time, improving skills is completely abstracted away into grindy and repetitive time lapses that don't really amount to anything even remotely interesting, doing anything and moving anywhere feels really clunky and seems to take forever, my character's needs have to be constantly micro-managed or they get even more belligerent than they already were, there doesn't seem to be any meaningful characters or events or dialogue because of how abstracted everything gets... Maybe I'm just kind of stupid, but I can't seem to get the hang of The Sims; that, or it's simply not for me.
