I have ADHD, having a blinking light on the screen is way too much sensory input for me. I played the game for less than 5 minutes the other day, because I got sick of my eyes constantly darting up to the top of the screen. Having said that I also played last night for several hours and the light wasn't there at all. I…
*thunderous applause* ^^^ This, all of this! I have ADHD, this makes it near impossible for me to ignore a twinkling light at the top of the screen. Does EA have any idea how distracting and immersion breaking it is to constantly lose focus on your game, because your eyes are too busy darting up to the top of the screen?…
My very first Sim that I pretty much just randomly generated, because I had no idea what I was doing, was married one time to Liberty Lee. Their Daughter was also married one time only to an NPC Sim I can't remember the name of, and their daughter, who is still in my game married the Grim Reaper. My current main couple,…
I haven't been able to save lots to Library for well over a year now. I end up having to save them to Gallery with numerous caps lock disclaimers that they are Game Saves only and I am not claiming the work as my own. Even so I've still had people throw a fit for me 'stealing' content, even though I plaster my Gallery…
Grim and Aislinn's guide to running a restaurant. B) Skeleton's are welcome. Make sure to take a break and feed your Vampire daughter. Enthusiastically sing for your customers, whether they asked for it or not. (spoiler cut for Grim out of uniform) Ensure you have a supply of death flowers on hand, just incase one of your…
The only thing that has been consistent across any of my Sims weddings. Grim will be extra emotional, Grim will cry :D (please note noone else is seated, that's because they're blocking the aisle further up instead of taking their seats when asked) I did just do a full wedding with all the options selected. It wasn't a…
I honestly can't remember if we even set a dress code at my IRL wedding, aside from just, "Hey it's a wedding, wear whatever you think is appropriate for the occasion". I didn't have set bridesmaid dresses, or anything like that, either. Only stipulation for bridesmaids was to wear something red, so one of my bridesmaids…
Grim unironically doing his best impersonation of 'Staying Alive' B) Overly dramatic storytelling runs in the family... Grim and Aislinn enjoying some quality conversation time sans dramatics Aislinn chatting with daughter Nyx (standing) and grandaughter, Samara (seated) Samara does her good deed for the day and donates…
Yesenia Reaper had a birthday Then headed to the club for a celebratory after party, and some heavy side eye when her brother and father decide to randomly follow her into the toilet. Off to University, and one of her roommates friends up and dies of old age. Also, Grim, I don't think your job description includes the…
Late capitalism (I realise I didn't include the 'late' portion of the description in my previous post, my bad), a stage in a capitalist system where practices become increasingly exploitative. Capitalism in and of itself is not necessarily bad, late capitalism, or late stage capitalism can be, because it includes things…
I suppose I hear the word 'hustle' and just automatically think, "Okay, well then give us sims with the right to unionise and strike". I do like my game to be as drama free as possible, but if they are going to go the whole 'hustle culture' route, then I'd want some balance with that. Like I would not want one of sims…
I'm waiting to see what the pack actually is, but I must admit I did cringe at the mention of 'the hustle', like "late capitalism and worker exploitation, I am so not here for it. Like I said though, I'm reserving judgement, it was just a little something that made me think, 'whoa, no thanks'. What I would really love to…
The no constant phone mod is here https://lazarusinashesmods.tumblr.com/post/691129246640472064/no-constant-phone That's really useful advice about MCCC. I have used it before to allow a larger household of Sims, but I didn't know it could also be used to remove the 20 sim limit from other lots. Because I have such a large…
I use two mods to make Grim a fully playable character, the Grim Reaper actionsunlocker mod and the Soul Reaper career. Both of those are by Gauntlet101010. I have MCCC installed as well, plus No University housing restrictions by Zerbu, Interior Decorator resolve error fix by thunder1143, faster Uni homework by…
Yeah it is, I've removed it and things are better. I think it's a clash with one of my other mods, but I haven't been able to determine which one. Stuff that was happening was like my Spellcasters were randomly humanised, but still retained the ability to transportalate, and once I cheated them back to being spellcasters…
Noooo, I think I'm gonna have remove the expanded mermaids mod :'( I think it's clashing with some of my other mods, and my game has been really unstable. All of my other mods are ones I actually need to play the game as well, so not ones I can get rid of. Ugh, so annoying, this mod is so good but I can't keep it if my…
@Metior_Ice I love the amount of thought and depth of lore you have in your game. I tend to be pretty loose when it comes to any sort of occult lore in my game, apart from some minor details I don't really have a whole lore system set up. So for merfolk it's pretty much as above. With vampires the only two things I insist…
Aidan and Proserpina got married as well. The game decided to be particularly glitchy for no apparent reason during their wedding, despite having less guests, so I only managed to get the following screenshots. Aidan looking particularly nervous talking to his father in law (dude, it's not like you haven't met Grim…
Since I had to replace my computer and start again from a combo of an old save, and Sims I had saved to the gallery, I've ended up needing to remarry a lot of my sims. Cue the weddings. Ankou Reaper got married to Regan Goddard Grim, the old softie, having fits of the vapours during the ceremony Cake cutting
In my game my main Sims pair (Grim and Aislinn) are both spellcasters, so all of their children are born spellcasters and have to decide if they wish to be something else. Becoming a mermaid or merman is a simple matter of giving up the spellcaster trait and choosing a different occult path. All of my occults are treated…
Proteus proposing to Phoenicia (she said yes) Announcing their engagement to the parents. Grim agrees to be the Wedding Officiant (not sure how this is gonna work, wedding officiants haven't worked yet for me, and technically Grim doesn't exist in the game even when he's part of a household and has populated a large…
