In Sims 4, I've made over 300k on one bottle of aged vitality nectar (while living in the smallest City Living apartment, 1313 21 Chic Street). In Sims 3, I used to have spreadsheets keeping track of good recipes. I think the skill challenge is a mixed bag. The reward for making 200 bottles is an extra bottle per batch, right when a sim will not want to make nectar ever again. So the question is how valuable is the flexibility of sims 3 combos, especially given the lack of guidance. I think for the casual way most people play, Sims 4 is clearly better. Sims 3 is really good in its own way, but they didn't fully commit to it. If they want to make a skill that complex in a game like this, it has to be more accessible to people who aren't nerds with spreadsheets or who decompile the code. Most simmers aren't that person.
Wow 300k on one bottle?! That’s wild - I definitely need to do some more testing with the skill in both games over time to form a fuller comparison. Also - such a fair point about the value of flexibility to different players: I guess I’m a bit of a spreadsheet nerd like you 🙈 but the sims 4 generally seems to be appealing to the more casual ‘little but often’ players. I’ll definitely be sure to take considerations like that into my comparisons in the future!
@@YasminsCorner It was finely aged and sold at a 300% markup. I was trying to make $1m with the fewest bottles. It looks like 3 bottles is the min. Sims 3 has really good structure to it. We first go to France. It's the only place to get the equipment and the rare grapes. I like the effort it takes. But when it comes to making those amazing nectars, they're impossible to figure out in one lifetime, so we google. Yes, experimentation is possible in ts3, but it's not advisable. To find the best nectars I read the list of ingredients off a website. And that's not very different from reading the ingredient list in game. So the Brew Barons (which I only played as a demo) has a good brewing system. Recipes are preset, and discoverable. But there are tons of different ingredients and dozens upon dozens of recipes. 50 to 100 is better than trillions.
this makes me want to actually try playing world adventures again... i usually keep it (and other packs i dont need) uninstalled so my game runs better lol

I give a hygiene point to sims 3, the sim mixes the fruits in swimsuit, unlike sims 4 and these dirty trousers in the mixture 🤢
RIGHT?!? I was thinking that! Plus I don’t even have the laundry day pack so truly, those flares must have been so stanky 🤢😂
