The Nov. 13th patch added great features such as:
- The "Positivity Challenge"
- The "First Person Camera" option
- and the gallery default view set back to "newest".
All bug fixes are also welcome!
I see just one issue with this patch:
In order to activate the "Positivity Challenge" you have to change the sim's aspiration to the challenge aspiration. The problem happens when you want to change that sim's aspiration back to the original one. (I suppose players will have to do it when the challenge time is over as it happens if the player wants to quit the challenge)
The problem is, the game doesn't "remember" what exactly the original aspiration was. The player has to memorize his sim's aspiration in order to change it back correctly. It is not a big issue if the player plays with just one household or any small number of sims. But it becomes a serious issue when the player has many households because some aspirations have many variants, for instance:
The Knowledge. Variations can be: (Master Vampire, Renaissance Sim, Archaeology Scholar, Computer Whiz, or Nerd Brain)
The Family. Variations can be: (Super Parent, Successful Lineage, Big Happy Family, or Vampire Family)
It will be hard for a player with many sims to remember accurately all his sims aspirations with their correct variation.
It would be a great help if the game would retain the correct original aspiration set for each sim, so when the player changes his sim's aspiration back to let's say "Knowledge" it would automatically display the correct variation, let's say "Renaissance Sim".
Or better yet, when the challenge time is over the correct aspiration and variation is restored without the player intervention.

I don't think this is an issue for the majority of people.

I wish that the challenge could last longer... Or, it will be great to have it once every month to spread positivity in the Sims worlds..
So far, I’ve noticed a few missed opportunities for “good deeds”:
Clean up / put away books
Watch and tip a performance
Help someone fix bad relationship
Give food from inventory
And after 2 game-days and tier-3 sims,, the only opportunities I have are still brighten day and tell funny story
On top of that, I’ve had to force quit then repair the game twice since the update.. I’m now trying to get into the habit of quick saving every few minutes.

Personally, I'm on hiatus thanks to the santa baby bug. Hoping it gets patched while there's still plenty of positivity challenge time.
I don't intend to have them all completing this challenge. I intend to do it with about five sims in different households. But I don't remember details of their original aspirations. I guess I will write them down before starting the challenge.
I have noticed one problem, the new Simology panel, I wish they bring back the smaller panel with scrolling, because I play with Sims who have many traits, and in my screen resolution of 1366x768, I can't see the top of the panel.
I removed all of my mods prior to the patch.
That is fixed with Get Famous, had the same problem. In get famous it now has a scroll bar, which needs to patched into base game.
