What I am really angry about is the floor repair kit. I have been playing for about a week real time and during that time I've time travelled quite a lot - I think I jumped a total of one week extra time? But I was really impatient, I had just got the game!... bad me. Anyway - I've bought the floor repair kit 3 times and have repaired the same hole THREE TIMES because EACH TIME an earthquake destroys it!!! Is this some kind of secret punishment for time travelling, you sneaky game developers?? I'm soooo angry. It's my 6th generation I think, floors STILL have holes in them!!

I don't mind the lack of exciting things to do too much. It keeps me from being a slave to the game and I actually get other stuff done while the game is running. I like not feeling that if I take my eyes off the screen or stop constantly trolling the grounds, I'll miss something crucial. I very much like not having to build and scavenge for food. I've only had the game for 2-3 days, and while at first I felt like time was going too slowly, now I think the pace is pretty good. Have a baby in the morning and by lunch time, it's 2 years old and repairing computers!
However, I would like the store to refresh more often, and I think it's ridiculous that the parents only make a dollar or so for every work cycle. Also, I'd love to have more than 5 options for families. Since many people feel that time moves slowly in the game, it might be more engaging to be able to have 8-10 families going at the same time. In addition, I would like the option to be able to rename the families. When I started with the first family, I just typed in my first name. Since then, I've thought it would be neat to be able to come up with a last name for the families and use that instead of my name.
Finally, I really dislike the looks of the characters. Surely they could be drawn to look more like actual people than the blocky, caricature-like figures which LDW seems to be stuck on. And what is up with never being able to see the backs of their heads? Everyone is always in profile unless they are looking toward the screen.

i wouldnt complain about vv and vf! its the best game ever! but the collectables disappering... its ok. I don't mind the lack of exciting things to do too much.

Agency. but you know what i mean.. i wish vf people could make more money.. (im sorry for my bad typeing... my other arm is broken and i have to type with my other hand..)

Ow nate! Sorry about your arm!
Yes, when you start playing the game you really ask for more money. But in the end, when you have tons of money (like I do now) you wish for other things.
At least when you want money you have - and you know - ways of getting it - it does not depend entirely on the game. In my case, I'm waiting for the perfect match - and this only happens by chance - there's no way of working on that.
It's the same about bugs (check one of the topics about it). I went nuts about a bug that was missing to complete my collection for weeks! And then again, just found it by chance.
This is what really makes it boring to keep playing the game.

sorry about ur arm Nate, hope it heals fast! i only have one thing about vv,vf,ft,and pt. i dont even think it would be a complaint or not. i KINDA dont like the real time thing cause i have to pause vv,ft and pt all the time b/c i never know when ill be back and i dont want them to die. BUT on the other hand, with vf its awesome cause i make them have babies come back and the kids grown! so i think this is it. on VF real time is awesome! on VVs, PT and FT it stinks!!! pause is a very good friend on them for me!! but all in all, LDW ROCKS!!

I think that what gives a little bit of difficulty to the game is to not earn to much money at a time. If we had lots of money at the beginning of the game, I think it would end real quick. What I miss is more puzzles, something else to do.

I would like to see other levels of "Home Improvements" and "Career Room Upgrades" once the initial ones are achieved. I completed all of mine in just three or four generations. I am on the 14th generation and there is very little for me to do but check in on them once in awhile and give them more food.
I think it would be nice if the house could be upgraded. Right now my peeps are sitting on more than $30 million and are still raising up to 6 children in one bedroom with only one bathroom in the house.
The game needs to evolve more.
