Needs Some Change

For the many frustrations Ive encountered while playing this game, its not worth $5 at all. There need to be some major improvements or a price drop at least. $5! For this!? First of all, the game comes off as very sexist. I played through both the make and female lives and it seems very different in a bad way. And why cant I propose as a female or ask my man on a date? Ridiculous. And when I finished college in each experience, with a major in natural sciences, the male character made $90,901 per turn and the female made $43,403, while both in the health services 2 career. Thats outrageously different. Besides that, you do not get to spend enough time at each stage of life. Id really like to be able to get through each icon and see all of the stories without having to play the game over and over. Its a cool game, but frustrating and it bores me after a while especially when I have to start a new life so soon. It would also be nice to be able to see a potential partners characteristics before committing to starting to date them. And it would be great if it wasnt always impossible to have a child. I always take up nearly my entire middle adulthood trying and I end up having to adopt when Im old. Also, I think the college experiences need to lay off all the romance when I already have a boyfriend. Maybe focus less on that and more on going to parties or working on assignments or something. All in all, I love this game, but it needs some change before Id believe its worth $5.
