Since sims 4 now officially has first person; I wonder if it is possible for anyone to make a first person mod for sims 3? It would be cool to play first person in a open world environment, I can imagine the fun that would happen. IMAGINE THE METEOR HITTING YA IN THE FACE WHEN YOU LOOK UP AT THE SKY!!! LOL! Sorry for caps, was being humorous. XD

What else would be considered fun about it? I ask this because I don't get first person in The Sims.

This is pretty much me.

This.It reminds me of one of those "Pet Vet simulations" or one of those cheap simulator games.I don't even use first person in GTA 5.

Honestly, I think the feature is somewhat half baked. But I am glad that others are having fun with it
This is only my opinion though and I am always liable to be wrong. Lol.
I think it was in The Sims (PS2) or The Sims Bustin' Out (PS2) which might have been the first Sims game to incorporate first-person perspective, though, through a cheat. Not really ideal for a Sims game in my opinion but the option was nice but again not how I would prefer to play. Which is why I tried it once and then I don't think I've ever used the cheat again. But the difference is I don't mind trying something completely out of character for a Sims game as long as it's a spin-off.
My thoughts, as well, I am not the Sim, I am directing the Sim in what I call an interactive soap opera through their virtual lives. First-person perspective does not work in all genres nor all games and I feel The Sims is better off without it as it doesn't add anything to the core of what makes The Sims, The Sims.

I feel much as the others, but I have to say I indeed find it to be immersive.
I didn't think I would use it in TS4, but I find myself jumping into their viewpoints. It just makes them come to life a little more.
I love seeing my house builds from their viewpoints.
I wouldn't want to play from that viewpoint though.
Makes for some interesting screenshots as well. Of course, we can get similar screenshots with the TAB key. This is how I take all of my screenshots pretty much.

If I ever felt they were alive, even in the littlest bit, I'd quit playing. Most definitely don't want to be them or live their life - no matter how pretty.
If 1st person is a lead into the next game, I'm glad I stopped here.
*I need to clarify- I don't mind others enjoying it. It's fun for them then it's fun for them. Enjoy it.

Light candle.
"With what?"
Light the stupid candle with the match you forgot you had.
"I don't understand what you are saying."
Eat candle.
"Yummm!"
Eat feather.
"Yummm!"
Look at rock.
"It's a rock."
Eat rock.
"You can't do that."
Throw rock.
"The rock bounces off the wall, hits you in the head, and knocks you unconscious. You die of your injury a short time later. Game over."
I guess things have kind of moved on from there since then?

Yes, I play both sims 3 and 4 and also everyone plays the sims in their own style.
Some will think it to be odd to play this way and ask me why play incarnation first person when your doing something like that IRL aka being alive? Because I find it amusing and it is fun to experiment with stuff like this. I like to play god and sometimes a mortal, I like to sometimes control stuff in this game, but also I like to watch them live their own lives without my control and also now I want to be able to see through them and observe their activity that way such as playing as them from first person. I hope this helps you guys understand why I support first person.

Same with me.
I play my RPG's and such in third person too. I want to watch my sims / characters in games, not pretend I am one. They're separate entities from me. First person isn't anything I like in any game really, let alone sims.
Other people play differently, but it's just not for me.
Heh, I remember the old text based adventure games, I used to love those The Secret of Bastow Manor was one of my favourites when I was young.

Offhand I would have to say the interest probably isn't there. But Mod The Sims (MTS) would be the place to check on that more reliably than here. The TS3 modding community still congregates over there, at least much of it does, and it's a much smaller group than it once was.
As for the skill set involved, I'm still not sure this is possible by way of a mod. The game is not open sourced, it's all proprietary code owned and accessible only by EA. That which can be modded by way of script and core mods (and tunings) is only a subset of the entire code base.

I like seeing my sims facial expressions. It wouldnt be a feature I would end up using.
