Sims 3 is better than sims 4 but sims 4 runs better on shittier hardware. Sims 4 doesn’t have an open world to the degree sims 3 does so it doesn’t have to process every sim walking around in the entire world and their unoptimized pathfinding at all times.
Perhaps now in the age of higher single core cpu clock speeds, maybe it’s not as bad.
I’m certain a game like The Sims 3 could be made today, and run better, while looking good, and having more features, it would just probably take more effort and investment than EA is willing to give.
