    I am playing while working, it is kinda of my stress reliever when I feel tired of my task at work.

    Youtube. Got my earbuds, a playlist of creepypasta readings, and I'm good to go.

    Listen to music or find myself talking to my sims out loud about what are doing. Usually, not doing what the puppet master has asked lol.

    Depending on the day, I'm doing one out of 3 things while playing Sims.

    1) Catching up on Youtube videos or Twitch Vods that I missed because of work, basically letting my Sims just run around and do whatever.
    2) Writing some more on my book (that I'll probably never finish), also letting my Sims do whatever.
    3) Muting the game and playing Spotify in the background, which is when I actually focus on the game. But this is only for Sims 3. If I'm playing Sims 1 or 2, I'm cranking up the music in game to high and never leaving Sims 1 build/buy or Sims 2 CAS because of the soundtracks

    Sometimes I listen to music or facetime with a friend while she plays sims too, but most of the time I just focus on my game.

    Either I just play Sims, listen to my music on shuffle, or watch a YouTuber of some kind (Vanoss, Dan & Phil, Dollightful, etc.).

    You are loved!

    I talk to my Sims and occasionally pause the game and go on forums.

    I like to listen to music or a stream when I play. Sometimes I listen to podcasts as well.

    In short: play, build, makeover other sims in the game, imagine things I could do next time or after I can finally buy another pack.

    I tend to watch/listen to YouTube videos. Especially while building. I just like to have something to fill the silence, since I'm not really in love with TS4's build music.

    Hey there!
    I thought I would start a conversation about all of you like me who do other things while playing your sims game. I usually mute mine and listen to an audio book (currently it's Harry Potter and the Order of the Phoenix) or sometimes I will have Netflix going on my chromebook (currently binges are Galavant and The Originals).
    What are y'all up to?

    I usually watch TV, but I only watch shows I don't need to pay attention to or movies I have seen before. Otherwise I get distracted and I'm like dang it my sims been off doing their own thing for like 30 minutes because I was distracted. Although, Harry Potter always distracts me :smiley: Also, I play a lot when my fiancee takes over he TV to play his Xbox or PS4, so I will sit on the couch and play on my laptop while he plays other games on the consoles.

    Usually I just give the game my full attention, though sometimes I like lowering the game volume and listening to youtube videos in the background while I play.

    I watch netflix or hulu usually a new show I'm not really sure about and if it can distract me from The Sims then I know it might be worth watching. This week Haunting of the Hill House managed to do that and I binged it all day while sick and not fully paying attention to my game.

    If I am creating new sims, I tend to have a music player going (sometimes the songs I listen to end up helping with the sim I create of the place I make.) Otherwise I will be on this forum posting while my sims are sleeping/at work in the old rabbit hole.

    Not much outside from recording for YT the actual Sims drama developing on the screen (because I somehow decided to create a new challenge and make a YouTube channel out of it (search for "The Sims 4 - Let's Play - Ultra Achiever challenge", if you are curious)), ...taking notes, playing with 1 and 3 and pause....hahaha
