I normally accpet death and take it as a change to turn the story into a new direction. With that said I also kept the ghost of my YA who died due to aging up with a mood swing. His dream was to become a rockstar, so I'm keeping the ghost around in case we will have a band pack and then his girlfriend will try to resurrect…
I think the overhaul from whims to wants improved sim personalities. They get wants related to their traits and aspirations more now. I only wish they updated wants for the traits that weren't included in the update.
I'm so disappointed I learned nothing from getting For Rent early and it having such serious bugs. I did a repeat with Crystal Creations because I thought "it's a simple stuff pack, what could go wrong". I was lucky enough to not have the cart button, but then there's the distortion bug and the moodlet bug... Upsetting :(
After running all over Oasis Springs Rhubarb had found three crystals and one metal She crafted this gold & turquoise necklace Goes nicely with her formal outfit
I didn't buy it yet, because in my rotation I have to play one week with another family before it's the turn of the sim who I want to craft jewellery. Soon. Also I'm lucky I don't have the cart button.
I haven't got the pack yet, so I don't know how it feels when playing, but two days sounds like a good duration to me. I would actually hate it if it was permanent.
I feel this pack has it all and then some more. I didn't play sims 3, so can't compare but the level of detail in jewellery crafting looks stunning to me. It's also interesting how they went about wearing the jewellery. I didn't know before the stream that there is an aspiration too, so that was a nice surprise.
My good vampire (Vampires) who lives in Glimmerbrook (ROM) will marry a jewellery maker. She will have a retail store (GTW) in Copperdale (HSY). I'm thinking she might sell flowers (Seasons) as well. They also have chickens (CoL) and goats (HR).
I hate layered (MOO) saucers the most, but I also hate the saucers if there are too many. It makes sims look weird in screenshots. I am usually fine with one saucer per room though, so it's not like I completely avoid them.
Only three of my sims have graduated from uni. One returned to their legacy home, the other moved in with his girlfriend to her father's place and the third one was an adult vampire. I can see it going any way. I think my default would be to have them move on their own although it hasn't yet happened in my game!
I made a BlueSky account the other week. Tumblr hasn't really worked for me as well as I hoped, so I'll probably move over there. Blue Sky has been a lot better for me and prefer it over Twitter too: https://bsky.app/profile/simsimsere.bsky.social
Setting the curfew early is one of the easiest ways to grind towards irresponsible reward trait or just keeping the value in the neutral area. I think I mostly use it for that. Reading the discussion is has dawned to me that I'm perhaps not using the pack as intended as I don't utilise many things that come with it. I'm…
1. I think all my sims have bodyhair off by default, because I never changed the setting and there's no hair growing? Most of my townies are old, I haven't really seen anyone with bodyhair. 2. Crushes feel pretty random. Afaik it's only for teens, they get a sentiment and moodlets. You don't have act upon the crush. They…
I used to like Parenthood a lot for the added character traits, but I admit I've grown a little bit bored with the pop ups. My main gripe with the pack is that it's geared towards positive character values and getting the negative traits can be very grindy. With all that said I still feel the character traits are worth the…
These are so interesting. What jumps out to me is how little reviews Jungle Adventure has gotten as whole. The pack itself is like a forgotten treasure.
I want to add that I mainly wanted the pack early for the pre-order items. It was a birthday gift. I was really excited about making residential rentals and I did make a whole bunch before I heard of the corrupting saves problem. I also played with the landlord system a bit. I had no issues at all with the rentals myself,…
