Oh, sorry. That would be Shock and Shame's Tumblr under the archives tab https://shockshame.tumblr.com/post/130782539898/this-guy-needs-an-urgent-makeover-but-a-some
EA never has and never will care about the playerbase. They'll do whatever it takes to make a quick buck. It is what got them their reputation in the first place. Do you honestly believe that EA cares about what any of us thinks? As long as they our money, they don't care what we think. And this is where it starts to get…
TS1 and TS2 were the golden eras of the Sims Franchise. TS3 was the revolutionary era. After that, the quality of franchise took a nose dive. For those that love TS4, good for you, but for myself and many others that grew up with the franchise, it doesn't bring the same fun, creativity, and enjoyment the past iterations…
I'll give Paralives a try, but if it isn't my cup of tea, I'll stick with Sims 2 and Sims 3. Not gonna bash people that like Sims 4, but it is not the game for me. I can see the amount of creative energy put in 2 and 3; 4 just isn't it.
Vampires, Werewolves, Witches/Spellcasters and Zombies being the main 4. Now I don't see zombies being a pack of their own, but what they can do is patch Realm Of Magic to allow Spellcasters to raise dead Sims back as zombies. Missed opportunity to bring back the Resurrect-o-Nomitron from Sims 2 for Paranormal Pack to…
Dying of laughter xD I can't believe it happened. Sim and Bonehilda were about to head to the bedroom to woohoo until both of them slipped and fell in slime... at the same time. Also loved the nod towards Sims 1. If you talk to Bonehilda and ask about her career, she says "Macabre Maid at the Makin' Magic Maid Mausoleum
I thought I'd share this. Someone in my Discord made a backup of all of Tifa's makeup on Google Drive I'll share the link here in case anyone else wants to download the CC too :) https://drive.google.com/drive/folders/1gEv4B1t-kVRWf4oGKOKFl5C3cXcDjHB9 Edit: Mind you, Sims 4 makeup is in there too.
To me, when I compare TS4 Packs to TS3 or even TS2, it feels like quantity vs quality. Yes, TS4 has the most packs when you compare it to TS3 or TS2, however, while TS3 and TS2 have the least amount of packs, they are most qualitative and feel more fleshed out and complete. Something that TS4 has been known for; they'll…
I will say this though, out of all the iterations, TS4 has been notoriously known for breaking CC/Mods every single patch release. Don't think TS2 or TS3 ever had it this bad. I do have to agree that World Adventures was pretty bad at release. Crashing, Black Screen of death. If I recall, some Simmers had to even entirely…
I will say this, and I know a lot will disagree, but do away with Game Packs and merge the content with Expansion Packs. There was nothing wrong with the tried and true Expac/Stuff Pack formula they were doing with the last two iterations. Because they certainly didn't have to piece meal us content nor did they have to rip…
This is something I have been thinking about for awhile now. What if for The Sims 5, they drop the 5 and have it be a reboot of the original game while taking the most praised features from every iteration of the game? They can still do open worlds, but they don't have to be on the scale of TS3 worlds; a compromise for…
To add, it would be neat if for Sims 5, they can get people from every iteration to create this ultimate sims game provided they have more freedom and less restrictive deadlines by EA.
When I first responded to this thread, I originally said that TS4 overstayed its welcome and it is time for TS5, but now I just don't think EA has the ability to deliver a quality product. When I read that TS5 was going to be online and that it will be targeting the current generation, I'm sitting here shaking my head and…
@Rflong7 To bring the community together. Not in the sense that the Sims would be a multiplayer game. It would remain a solitary game. It just feels at the moment, divided. Some people are content with what EA is putting out and others want them to do more. They want change. To answer your other question, we all know how…
I am really hoping for Sims 5. Hoping that it will return to its roots. Honestly, if EA/Maxis had pushed the release date for Sims 4 and fine tuned the game, it might have been better. Take a look at this video: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=VKs75DgbNl0 Maxis pushed back the release date of Sims 2 in order to get…
Found this little gem. http://modthesims.info/d/503756/welcome-to-riverside.html Sims 2 Riverside was the original neighborhood that was to ship with The Sims 2 base game, but was removed during development. It is believed that the Sims that appeared in various video previews for the game may have been the inhabitants of…
In the Sims 3, you can get Late Night and the base game for $80 (in its heyday), but to get a somewhat similar experience, you need Vampires, City Living, Get Together, and Get Famous; well over $160. Assuming you're paying full price.
How about that Sims 4 is more serious in comparison to the past predecessors and a lot of the humor is lost? Humor lost, more mundane, feels too easy = less enjoyable. I'm not saying I don't like the Sims 4, it just isn't as enjoyable as past games. Why does it need more packs to feel "complete" and fun when past games…
Does the Sims 4 have enough of that wacky/fantasy element though? If you compare it to its predecessors, there are occults that are missing/don't have and that good ole Sims humor. Does that mean it won't be added? No, it just means that we don't know. If they decide to eventually create a Happy Haunts pack, I would like…
Just found out that you can take full sized images using the media capture feature that comes with your drivers. Not sure about Nvidia, but AMD has it. Goodbye Prt Sc button. Was messing around with create a family, made a college student. That is what I love about Sims 2. You can have gorgeous Sims without them looking…
Honestly, I'm not so optimistic about Sims 5 anymore. Realm of Magic was the final pack I've purchased (own all EPs (minus DU), GPs, and SPs. I've gotten to the point I've deleted my entire Mods/CC folder and uninstalled. Sims 4 is nowhere near as enjoyable as TS1/TS2/TS3. I'm probably going to get a lot of hate for saying…
