How long do you think sim days should be? I read in one of the articles that they will go slower, but how much slower was not specified at all.
I want my sims to be able to accomplish a lot of things in a day. I also hope they have enough energy to do it all. A full nights sleep should allow teen/adult sims to be out and about all day and at least up until 12 at night. Also instead of passing out when the energy bar gets low, sims should just not do things as quickly. If I'm out when I'm tired, I don't fall asleep, I just might not be a social butterfly. It should be the same with sims.
Certain things should give sims energy boosts. If a sim is generally healthy, exercise should energize them, not make them tired. If a sim loves to party, going to an awesome party could give them a shot of life. Sims that have children should suck it up and put their kids to bed, even if they are exhausted.
I want time to go slowly enough, that if I let my sims relax some, I don't feel like they won't complete what they need to. As it is, if my sims aren't constantly skilling, they won't be able to max out anything until they're about dead. Also, I wish the toddler stage could be a little more relaxed and fun. Parents should just play around with their toddlers. They should learn skills just from being kids, not from being attached to toys. Right now, if my toddlers don't skill all through the night, I feel like they'll be at a disadvantage.
I think that they should make a minute in game, three seconds in real life. This would make more sense for things like going to the bathroom, cooking and eating food. Right now it takes sims like 15 minutes to go to the bathroom and hours to eat a meal as a family. Ridiculous.
