What Happened In Your Game Today, The Non-Serial Story Version «1234567…112...Next Go

Have you wanted to share some funny or goofy or nifty or amazing happenings from your gameplay session but didn't really feel like it fit in with the more involved and in-depth story teller's serial story recap discussion? Well, here's the place for all those one-off things you just want to share and talk about with other players. Feel free to post your screenshots too.

This isn't to start a new serial story recap thread or to take away from that thread, which is fun to read if you haven't yet, but is for sharing single vignettes from your game that entertained you or that you wanted to share.

Thank you for this. The other thread can be a bit intimidating to post in when you aren't a storyteller or a consistent poster even. The massive comment posts are equally overwhelming. Often, I just want to share bits and pieces from my play. You know, to stay in touch and be social on a smaller scale

Catzilla

@Nindigo Yay, I'm glad I wasn't the only one. I hope this thread feels less intimidating for others too.

Oo, sounds good. Can't wait what others put in here.

Here's one from the other night. I have a young family and the mom sim is a painter. She's been painting her family and has a dedicated wall for family portraits that she's been working on as the two daughters age up. It's been pretty realistic, wiggly kids, bad poses, moving at the last minute before image capture, you get the idea. Well, Daughter 2, who was at the toddler stage, was sitting for mom and was in a toddler Mood. So after a couple of attempts with image capture she painted a lovely portrait: Toddler In Tantrum. I laughed and laughed.

Nindigo

@Catzilla Over the years, no game has made me laugh as much as The Sims 4

Well, I couldn't wait for things, as usual, meaning my Sulani conservationist is pregnant now. She just hit level four in her career. I invited her merman boyfriend to join her household while he was still her roommate. I thought the game might cancel his roommate status, but it didn't, so I made her kick him out. They don't do that in a nice way, so he was sad for a spell. I'm glad she did it, though, because people don't just enter the house anymore in spite of the private dwelling trait. Some even stole his things! But the real problem was that the game would fast forward when she slept as if he was still just a roommate and not part of the household. Everything is good now.

I started the Animal Crossing challenge by the wonderful and talented Kawaii Stacie. Never realized how hard it was to get fossils in this game until I needed to dig up 25 of them lol

You end up with a whole lot of collectible figurines and nowhere to put them. lol

@Nindigo This game surprises me more than any other game I've ever played.

I've had weird relationship bugs like that too. Note to self: Don't rush the romances. lol

Rosysimmer

I made a family once, eight sims. Ive had 'em for a month, we've had like 5 deaths, one affair & Divorce, an illegitimate child, one disowning of a child, and moolah. They have like, 8 million sim oleons in bank.

Catzilla

@Rosysimmer Wow, that's really eventful! 5 Simoleans says one of those deaths was because of 'got caught cheating'. *snicker*

DoloresGrey

Thank you for this thread!

Mum and daughter built a snowpal. Daughter likes it but mum doesn't look very impressed.

Then they got a doggy. It is a german spitz and her name is Aida.

My grandparents had her. She had to be put to eternal sleep a couple of month ago in age of 14 years.

Nindigo

Nooboo on the way, confirmed. Baby daddy, Paka'a, is on the left.

My Sim Sophie couldn't get a drink at the bar because this guy kept blowing his horn at the bartender. So Sophie confronted him, and now he is giving her the same treatment.



He is so annoying

Rosysimmer

@Catzilla Sadly no, the cheating sim is still alive. I'm trying to let everyone die of old age. Also, after her divorce she married her elder fling the next or same day. And he died the NEXT DAY!

I don't have anything to share right now, but thanks for making this thread! I always did feel kind of awkward in the original thread when I just wanted to share a little anecdote of something funny that happened, while everyone else was posting long stories lol.

CrazyNinja

This happened a little bit ago but it was too stereotypical Sims disaster that I just had to share 😝

I had been playing this couple for a while, and a planned the most beautiful and elaborate wedding I have EVER done! Venue, decor, everything. My fatal mistake was planning it in a different world, where I could not see the weather forecast...

So I start the event and arrive at the venue to find a full-on thunderstorm happening. All the guests were panicking trying to run inside the tiny kitchen I had for the caterer. The groom got struck by lightening TWICE (thankfully he didn’t die) but then the brides mother got hit and kicked the bucket. So everyone was distracted and the bride was too sad to get married, so the whole thing was for nothing 😂

I remember just pausing the game after and laughing for 5 minutes straight

Nindigo

I have developed an obsession with Duane Talla



It is his nooboo in there

DoloresGrey

My sim has been blessed by this mischievous skeleton.

She didn't have much luck that day.

She built this snowpal family though!

@Catzilla Thanks for making this thread. I'm a contributor on the other thread but I just share one-off highlights so will be more suited to this one.

I'm happy to see this thread and loving seeing every bodies screenshots. The other thread intimidates me as I'm socially awkward and not good at story telling. I do still look at it sometimes though just to see what people are doing with their sims.

Some of the sims in my game, some of them descended from Malcolm Landgraab...

Tiberius Landgraab Sr.



Tiberius Landgraab Jr.



Adam & Kallie Gregory



Mitchell & Vanessa McManus



Fernando Veleta

I'm really enjoying your posts and pics, guys!

I've seen Cujo! oh, wait, not Cujo but cute fluffy doggo, Cutie alert: Paka'a, Sims behaving badly, when disaster strikes it comes in large batches, Cutie alert: Duane, a skeleton with big personality, some awesome snow friends and a baby cowplant covered with snow (cuuuute!), at first glance-that Ewing guy from that long ago tv show Dallas (what's his name again??) except Tiberius is more handsome, and some very cute couples!

Baby Talla, now a toddler

Me too!! It's so fun so far. Yeah, the fossils were a big obstacle. I had to plan frequent "overnight trips" to Oasis Springs. I also kinda cheated by dragging the same fossil into my inventory over and over to make the counter go up. Now the challenge is repaying that loan...
