I admittedly haven't played Sims 4 very much, so I'm mostly familiar with Sims 2 deaths and the more obvious Sims 4 deaths like death by fire. Yesterday, however, Liberty Lee died in my vanilla game from "Cardiac explosion." She was extremely upset about her husband, who in my game was one of the Bros, cheating on her. Seems kind of silly to die from that as it's a very natural reaction!

They can die from too much laughter too!
Everything was going great and my family had just celebrated New Years when my sim died from laughing.
Needless to say, I didn't save it. So Frustrating!
Look at the smile on her face!
@mlnov39 I have a goofball sim who always gets super playful and I always get worried that he'll make it to the hysterical stage and die.
Then I'll avoid Goofball
I wish they'd remove the idiotic emotional death feature. I'm a goofball irl and while I have been known to wax hysterical laughing on occasion, the only death it causes is social. Sims being able to die laughing, die of embarrassment, that doesn't improve immersion, and it's not the kind of "sense of humor" Sims 1, 2, and 3 had that Sims4 lacks. I mean, Sims4 Sims cannot die in a fight even if they lose a fight 10X, but they can die of embarrassment or laughter.

It's crazy how athletic sims live so much longer than non-athletic sims.
My older athletic sims watched all their younger non-athletic siblings pass away.
My sim went to her sister's house to say good bye because I assumed she would
be passing "any day now," but her sister was always on the treadmill & swimming and lived for
many days after her twin died.

After losing one of my favorite sims to dying of laughter, I got a mod that eliminates emotional deaths. It hasn't ever needed to be updated either and that keeps it simple.

@minov39 I've a few active sims in my game who have far outlived their spouses.
I was today years old when I found out that a Sim in the education career can teach others. Thus far it seems like any skill long as said sim that is teaching has the skill at Lvl 5.
I just posted this in another thread but thought it would fit in here as well. You can change lot types of the penthouses in city living. But the same things goes for the university buildings. If there are no studens living in the dorm, you can change the lot type to whatever you like.
I did not know sims could scoot into a double sized bed if its against the wall.
I also didn't know unemployed sims labeled themselves "stay-at-home mom" if they have a kid and you ask about their career! That's soo cute.
What's some other little things you just found out?
This is a very interesting thing since a toddler bed has to be unobstructed on either side or your caregivers can't read them a bedtime story. (I'm not sure if they can do the other interactions or not.)
Today I realized that the items from your sims fridge and bookcases stay filled with the items you previously have in them, even if you delete them and add a different one or move houses and sell all your furniture. Really convenient since I thought my sim was gonna have to cook a bunch of new meals but all her leftovers are still there
Random townies/NPCs (whichever you like to call them) can hold university degrees and be qualified for top jobs (DU required). A handy thing to know for rotational players seeking new additions.
You don't not need to have a degree to be a doctor, apparently YouTube tutorials are good enough. (okay we already know this but it still had to be said.)

It's nice because every time they shower they change their clothes.

Takes me ages in CAS now. They usually get a choice of 5 outfits for every type!
Thank you
In all caps, because of course it is in all caps.
She went to the bathroom mirror to check her face.

Yeah, same here. I spend so much time making outfits when a sim ages up that I forget what I was doing with everyone else in the HH.
I've never seen that and my sim is maxed fitness. There's just so many options in the pie menu. 🤪
