Wasn’t it the last Sims games made by Maxis as a separate studio? Isn’t that why everything after it felt so lifeless?

It was the last major Sims title released while Will Wright was still with the company. That would explain it.
Maxis continues to exist as a studio under EA, but most of the original people are gone, including the founders.

You will never hear of Chuck Norris’ exploits while hoofing it across the entire Barrens to finish one fetch quest again.

Don’t be sorry, you’re not pedantic enough.
The Nahuatl word Xoloitzcuintle is something the vast majority of English-speaking Americans can’t read, let alone spell or pronounce correctly. So the more digestible word Xolo was adopted to identify Mexican hairless dogs (hard X, hard O, L, hard O).
X, spoken as a letter = ecks
Hard phonetic sound = zz, same as the letter Z (almost always at the beginning of a word. Xylophone)
Soft phonetic sound = ksk (never at the beginning of a word. Box, oxen)
(disclaimer: American English, ymmv.)
Xolo - hairless Mexican dog
Xenops - small bird
(I don’t use X-Ray because saying the letter X doesn’t make either of the letter’s major phonetic sounds.)
