Positives: I don't think the graphics look all that bad, but comparing TS2 and TS3 Sims, they contrasted much more than TS3 and TS4 (granted, TS3 made the people finally look mildly, yet realistically, human). I like the molding option and that there seem to be many more hairstyles than before. I'm really happy that there will finally be people in places, a characteristic all of the previous games have lacked severely, in my opinion. I also like how we can buy houses and people in-game.

Negatives: I saw multiple negatives about buying this. I certainly know I won't be buying the game when it is first released (seriously: $67.63 USD?), but I don't think the content is too bad. While watching, I wasn't very fond of how 'shiny' they looked either -- you could barely see the sim's skin. From what I saw, there weren't many new traits, but it's a bit too early to judge on that, so. What I will, however, judge about how there will be a loading screen for every location you go to. TS3 was much more convenient in that aspect.

In short, I don't really think satisfactory graphics, changed CAS, more people and buying options will really get me to buy the game (and if most of the negatives were turned around, I still probably wouldn't buy it with an extravagant price like that; the game barely even seems worth 50).
