You are only allowed to have 5 members in your sims household. If you get a child while the household has reached it's limit, you can send one child away to boarding school. They will be removed from your household and make room for the new child. But I don't think you can ever get them back. I haven't tried it yet, though.
Oh, wow! I never knew this! Thank You, I'm going to have to load the game and try this.

> I would 100% buy a sims medieval 2, especially if they improved upon the previous game. It's limiting that you can't build and that you can only work within one world (and can't even really customize your kingdom much). The lack of aging and generations also is really limiting. If they made it a little more like the regular sims, but still medieval, I'd probably play it even more than regular sims!
I agree 100% on this. I still play the sims medieval but what really bothers me is the lack of aging with the kids. Like how they only become adults if one of your parent sims dies... kinda sad really.
> I vote for a second chance. Not a TSM2 , just a new expansion. How about a Game of thrones kind of expansion?
That would be awesome, but I'm sure EA would have to tone down on the main themes! Ya know, the violence and such, lol.

> Violence doesn’t really matter in the game ratings (as long as EA avoids blood and gore). But nakedness and woohoo do (and especially in all the English speaking countries). So yes - a Game of Thrones expansion would (at least theoretically) be possible. I just doubt that EA will make it anyway.
I meant blood and gore rather than violence, I should have made that more clear on that. As someone who is a fan of Game of Thrones I'm just saying they would have to pretend it isn't nearly as bloody as usual... like the red wedding.
But alas, it is what it is.
We begged them to give us a tool to develope/write our own quests, and I thought they might do that but then they suddenly dropped the game like a hot potato. But that is also around the time EA started building up the mobile side of it's studios and rethinking things about Emeryville studio.

The Sims Medieval was according to the same source developed in the studio at Redwood Shores. So I don’t see how the fate of the Emeryville studio could have any influence on Medieval?
But we were explained before the release of Medieval that they had originally discussed it to be an EP for TS3 but finally decided it to become a standalone game instead. Therefore we know that EA only intended Medieval to be a sidegame to TS3 and EA has always wanted such sidegames to only be small games (probably to avoid too much competition for the main games). This is for me to see the most likely explanation of the fact that the Sims Medieval only got one (quite small) EP even though Medieval had deserved a better fate.
Edit: We could also discuss why EA then is making sidegames at all. But I think that the main reason actually is to also have something to sell to mainly new simmers who could think that the main games are too big and have way too many expansions.
Did you watch the very first walkthrough of TSM? Those guys said they were in Emeryville. Did that mean they were just there and visiting? No. It was not an official trailer but a walkthrough video. They had two if IIRC.

Will Wright was in Emeryville and we know that the studio made both SimCity games and Spore games. We also know that the studio was a part of Maxis. But in most places it is mentioned as “the SimCity Studio”. Maybe some developers from Redwood was in Emeryville to visit Will Wright and maybe also to show him the new Sims Medieval game?
Will Wright had already left Maxis when they released TSM. It was in 2011, and The Sims Studio is located in Redwood. They were building (TS3 already out) the TS3 and Emerville was producing TSM. Or at least that is they way the walkthrough sounded to me. Maybe we should ask SimGuruDaniel where TSM was produced since he was one of the TSM team.

I never looked at it that way. I guess it makes sense not to turn it into a game with many EP's if you loose TS3 players (which I doubt because it has a totally different feeling) If what you say is true, we are lucky we got an EP at all. The sims 2 stories never had EP's.
(insert smile) Credits are on the disc, you don't have to ask anybody.

They used to, including just interns (who work for free) but TS4 doesn't even have a credit section that I have seen in the game does it? I think they stopped listing who all worked on games and where.

> I would love to have another kind of historic sims game, maybe even that you can start in stone-age or whatever time you want and start with a family then and keep playing through the centuries as one big legacy challenge! That would be PERFECT! And also make sure that the clothes are acurate for the time you are playing in and if you'd choose an outfit that is not acurate for that time then other in-game sims would react shocked to that or something! Really keep hoping something like that would come!
I love your idea, but i guess they would never do it since that might be too hard to make. kinda make me think of Age of empire except without war.Still i like your idea
