Which needs based reward trait would you choose for yourself?

«13
If in real life if you could choose to freeze one of the six basic needs your average sim has to manage, which one would you choose?

I realize that Carefree does not freeze a sim's fun need, but there isn't a reward trait that does apparently, so I made do.

    Never Weary, definitely. While I've always been an "I'll sleep when I'm dead" type, chronic fatigue and fibromyalgia have made it so that I'm always weary, so I sleep a LOT.

    If I never had to stop what I was doing to use the bathroom again, I'd be so happy.

    I like to eat, sleep, have fun, and socialize with people I love, but I don't get many thrills from relieving my bladder every few hours.

    Hygiene is a close second, but showers can be enjoyable.

    Argument could be made for "never hungry" since it would be most cost efficient but I enjoy delicious food and feel like the delight would be lost if I'd never feel hungry. It's quite satisfying to enjoy a good meal when you're hungry.
    Never having to sleep could be pretty productive as well but I actually like sleeping and enjoy my sleepy evening/morning routines. Plus I feel like I'd get bored with my life if I couldn't shut my brain off for a while cuz there's not that many things I can do during those hours (except be gaming all night I guess).

    Never having to use the bathroom though... that would make so many things so much simpler. Never having to face the stress of suddenly needing to use the bathroom and having none nearby or get grossed out because the only one available is some badly managed public one.

    Forever Fresh (Hygiene)
    I shower daily but only because I have to. I don't like small enclosed spaces. Especially when the water is running and you can't hear anything.

    This was an easy one for me. All the other things are actually pleasurable to take care of. A good night's sleep on a good mattress, with high quality sheets? Heaven. Good food? Certainly wouldn't want to give that up. Fun and social? I want more of those in my life, not less. Hygiene: definitely love those long soaks in the tub, or a destressing shower, with fancy bath products; if I picked Forever Fresh, I'd never get to shop at Lush again, and that would be just tragic.

    But never having to go to the toilet again? Sign me up.

    Carefree. I cant count the number of times I've let stress and worry get in the way of success. And had I not stressed about it, I probably would have been fine.

    If I went with Never Weary, I'd never go to bed, which would mean far less cuddling with the spouse.

    So I went with my number two option, since sometimes finding time to actually get in the shower is a bit of a trick (that and I'd prefer long soaking baths, but I almost never have the time for those.)

    I’m getting older….. it’s between bladder and energy….. I go to the bathroom a million times, day and night, and I don’t have the energy I used to either..,, not sure which to choose.

    It's a tight call between steel bladder and forever fresh, but I chose forever fresh because it's summer and I really hate how sweaty I get when it's hot out.
    Moreover, I advise that the cart button must be destroyed!

    Never Weary not even a question I hate sleeping such a waste of time.
    Sims 4 went from "You Rule" to "One of the stories we want you to tell"

    I personally like having a break from life and going into my own world, being forever awake would be torture for me lol

    I definitely would like to have a steel bladder.

    This was tough but I don't love my job (don't hate it, just don't love it) and being an adult means that a lot of my time is spent doing things I'd rather not do. If I never got tired again and I could just stay up and have more time for myself, I'd take it in a heartbeat.

    I have Chronic Fatigue... I literally pay money (to doctors) just in the hopes of someday having normal energy again. :)

    I have so many things I want to do and not enough time. If I can cut out sleep that frees up a few hours a day for fun stuff.

    Never Weary (Energy)
    Never Weary. Energy is the only thing keeping me down! I don't want to get tired and sleep and see the time just go by. I could do so much more without it. I would never have problems with lack of free time. Yes, I would need more food, but that's the sacrifice I would be willing to take.

    But right now, the ironic thing is that I'm now going to sleep. Goodnight!

    I think it would be nice to not worry so much about everything.

    The thing about Never Weary is... sleep is about more than energy. It's how your brain restores itself. Never sleeping would be like having a computer that you never restart, which means no updates or patches. After about three days, even if you were Never Weary, you'd start hallucinating, and you'd be absolutely out of your mind in a week. You wouldn't actually have more time to do things, because you wouldn't be capable of doing anything. Sleep isn't a waste, it's a reset button.

    I made my choice between forever fresh and steel bladder. I have a medication that makes me run in the bathroom constantly, so steel bladder it is for me. It would be very useful on long road trips and while outdoors and just not having to go to bathroom all the time, yes!

    It was a very close call between forever fresh and never weary, but I chose forever fresh. Obviously I shower, but I find it a pain and would love not to have to. I have more fun things to do with my time, like play sims! 😉
