I know, right? I didn't hate the non-open world premise like The Sims 2, as long as other Sims still progress! I almost thought The Sims 4 would've been great with the non-open world and story progression, but I was wrong!

Well, that's definitely my play style. I'm sure other people don't mind or even think story progression is a nuisance, but not me, and EA has lost me. But the point is, story progression is gone.
