There's no story progression, so Sims in your neighborhood don't get married, have kids, get new jobs, etc.There are no more 'normal' careers, like Medical, Law Enforcement, Business, Teaching, etc.Lots of little things are missing, as well. Goodbye, pink hair with lime green highlights. There's also no longer the option to change hair colours via the colour wheel you may only choose from a handful of 'natural' colours like blonde, brown, black, grey, etc. Most of the clothing and objects have 3-7 recolour options (though some of the clothes have 10+ recolour options), but there's no longer the ability to truly customize things with as many options as there were before. However, for completing a child Aspiration, your Sim will earn a special trait that will allow them to develop skills related to the Aspiration faster as an adult. Theirs are modified a bit from the adult ones, as there are only three stages, and only three Aspirations to choose from.

As the Aspiration levels get higher, so do the goals level 4 requires the Sim to cook 20 excellent large meals, reach level 6 gourmet cooking skill, and cook 5 gourmet dishes at a single event.ДЄspirations can also be changed, unlike in The Sims 3, and once your Sim completes their Aspiration, they can choose another! The reward of completing an Aspiration is a new trait (typically related to said Aspiration), though Sims also receive Satisfaction Points while completing goals for their Aspiration.Д¬hildren also have Aspirations, now. For example, a Sim with the 'Master Chef' Aspiration must, in step one, cook 5 excellent meals, and make 5 large orders of grilled cheese. Lifetime Aspirations are done in 4 stages, with each stage having several small goals before completion. There's a Satisfaction Point menu in the game (much like in The Sims 3), which allows for players to redeem their points for objects, upgrades, or special traits.ДЄspirations also make a return from The Sims 3, though this time, they are fine-tuned and much more in-depth. These points are only accrued upon fulfilling one of your Sim's whims, or upon completion of your Sim's Aspirations (more that later, too). Satisfaction Points are The Sims 4's new version of Reward Points (introduced in The Sims 2). Much like Sims 3, however, when you successfully achieve your Sim's whim, you're rewarded with Satisfaction Points. Whims are a bit different from the wants in Sims 3 there are only three whims at a time, you can only 'promise' or save one whim at a time, and the whim on the far left constantly fluctuates depending on your Sim's mood at the time. The Sims 3 had 'wishes' and The Sims 2 had 'wants/fears', but The Sims 4 has 'whims.' Whims are little bubbles that appear over your Sim's head in the UI, and they represent things your Sim wants to either obtain or achieve. Speaking of whims-they're technically new to the game, too.
