Did you know that the big stuffed bear has emotions? I didn't until now.

One of my sims has the Childish trait, and at the moment she's married, but in no hurry to have any children. Anyways, because she lives in a home that has a Vampire Lair lot trait, the vampire council sent her a big stuffed vampire bear, and she has really loves this thing.

When she first started interacting with it.

And after a while the bear became very happy.

But because of things happening, she got very busy, and she didn't have a whole lot of time to play with her friend, until one night she noticed he was sad, and there was an option to cheer him up.

    I bet the bears moods arent over ridden by a nice painting :p

    I didn't actually know they had emotions. Interesting!

    I think the kids ordinary stuffed animals have the same thing. I forget to play with them. But I do sometimes see the kids playing with them.
    I really like your stuffed vampire, his so cute.

    Very interesting, wonder if they work with no kids, toddlers, no "Childish trait". Interesting indeed!

    If you mean the giant bear ones, I don't think they do that. But they might after the latest patch or Vampires or it could just be exclusive to the new bear. Last time I had a sim kick one, the thing was still smiling. Not sure if this has changed.

    Yes, I've seen this in my game. All of the big stuffed animals react. Such a cute little detail.

    I have never noticed it before. Thanks for the heads up! Now, I'm really leery about allowing the toddler to take out his anger on the toy! (Tragic attack of the stuffed toys, film at eleven.)

    I'll have to find some of my pics later when I get home. I think it was the special bunny I got from collecting eggs one year. That was when I noticed it. (Btw, letting your sad child sims cry it out with their stuffed friend is one of the saddest and most adorable interactions they have.)

    My bears always have their eyes closed when I buy them, but after a while when my kids have played with them and are becoming friends they open their eyes. Don't think I have seen a sad one. It's adorable :smile:

    That's so cute because just when I want to dislike the game by getting bored with it something new just pops right up that I never discovered before, like the doors crack open, even when noisy neighbors are loud living in the city, must have came along with city living, but I also realized that some curtains move like the wind is blowing them if you watch them for a couple of seconds. There are lots of hidden things within this game if you pay close attention.

    @Unordinary25
    If your Sim was an enemy of another Sim who just died, the surviving one will be happy instead of sad.
    Some Sims are left-handed. You can see that if they grab a glass with the left hand for example. It's entirely random and not shown in text form anywhere.
    Sad Sims will have different animations for eating and getting out of the bed for example. That really makes them look sad.

    And that's just a few things I can instantly think of, there is an infinite amount of other details. I love how those little things are added in - they make everything more life-like even if it's just a background thing - even though it's unlikely that many people are going to notice them.
    But this also makes the game much more interesting to look at. If sad Sims act differently then that adds a lot of immersion to every situation they take part in. If curtains are moving in the wind then this subtle and barely consciously visible movement still makes the house look less static and more like an actual house.

    That is so adorable! I had no idea and my sim has one in her home she interacts with! I'll be watching it from now on.
    supersonic, simobotic, disconnected, not respected, who would ever really wanna go and top that?

    So are the bear and bunnies. No one pays such attention till NOW? There are others who are horrified to see stuff bear with emotion like this. :lol:

    I've started paying attention ever since I spent most of my time watching my Childish Sim playing with his stuffed animals. I always make sure their eyes stay happy looking or stay neutral. When they get sad, it crushes my heart. :( Hitting them or being meant to them makes it worse.

    Note that toddlers are unable to change the stuffed animals' moods. I've let my toddler Sims play with the stuffed animals with their sad eyes and they still remain sad, regardless of how many times my toddler Sims play with them.

    I wonder if maybe who worked on the toddlers, might have forgotten to add that little part to the toddlers.
