  • Charles The Evil Chicken really hates Patchy. Dunno why.
  • Settings for occults. That way I could e.g. enjoy some hyper aggressive vampire break-ins or Spellcasters autonomously swinging spells without the realism players losing their minds. As it is now, you basically never even see occults behaving like occults unless you control them yourself (or use mods). Options and toggles…
  • From the "big three" definitely Spellcasters. The biggest issue to me is that they are WAY too easy and their skill tree lacks flavor. Like said by many others: they are basically sims with cheat codes and no drawbacks. Except curses but those are ridiculously easy to eliminate. In fact, I deliberately KEEP some curses…
  • Omg this is like the saddest looking stray I have ever seen :'( Plus she seems to be following Edmund around, conveniently showing up in wherever he goes. I'm so tempted even though I already managed to fail the "no more pets for my sims" decision once. But hey, maybe Edmund could actually get this one because his dad…
  • Huh, I'm not getting any pop ups even though there's plenty of stuff I don't own (including Horse Ranch). I wonder if that's a regional thing? I live in EU and our laws are (thankfully) quite strict considering internet privacy and ads e.g. websites are required to ask permissions on how they use cookies; whether they are…
  • I don't have Eco Lifestyle, Snowy Escape, Island Living, Horse Ranch, For Rent, Discover University. From the ones I do own I definitely have most issues with HSY yet I still feel like it’s fulfilling the purpose I got it for: gives teenagers more identity. Really, my teens could basically go their whole life state without…
  • Real-life illnesses Big fat no. Like, I have even rejected otherwise good sounding mods just because they included rl sickness. I wouldn't mind if the current illness system had more consequences but there is absolutely no situation I want to see a "your sim has cancer" message ever in my Sims game. More "trendy" social…
  • Irvin shows up during the career day because of course he does lol. "And medical career has been great for my conscience because I can fix you after I beat you during a rampage... which I'm btw about to have."
  • Nope. I'm a gameplay focused person and the gameplay features hardly add anything that would interest me, especially after learning it's the same ol' loading screens galore (also, bugs and glitches but that's like the norm). The pack seems more geared towards builders (once again) and I have little interest in building.…
  • Dunno if this happens with toddlers already (I recall kids have similar reactions) but I just found it funny in this context... Was playing my Homeless challenge (another one) with Ava and her infant sister. While Ava was abusing bars to get free chips, Irvin here started rampaging... And the infant thought it was awesome.…
  • I have this tendency to give every sim of mine flaws either via traits or gameplay. I seem to also favor my more confrontational/dysfunctional sims, like the ones with traits like mean, evil, hot-headed etc. I also seem to be pretty allergic to "traditional happy families". Not that I don't have happy families, there just…
  • Decided to expand upon my Grimmy picture in the "last screenshot" thread and share some brief stupidity from my game. So, I recently got Growing Together. While browsing through his contacts Edmund was delighted to see this guy. Of course had to have a stayover lmao. First impressions are important so he first proceeds to…
  • So, recently got Growing Together... and my sim had Grimmy in his contacts. Of course had to have a stayover lmao.
  • @GalacticGal Thanks. And yeah indeed. I have done a homeless challenge before with my own "stuck in San Myshuno" rules and attempted something similar here, just in a different neighbor. Yeah, way too much with the infants being as needy (=realistic) they are and with me playing long life span :lol: so I'm giving some…
  • Have been playing TS4 again after a long hiatus. Bought some packs too during the sale. Had the bright idea to try out a Homeless challenge with a "runaway" teen with her infant sister. I soon regretted this decision.
  • Man's best dance partner.
  • Was browsing through the Other Households to delete some redundant townies the game keeps spawning. Came across this lady. Turned out even better when I took a look at CAS. I didn't touch a thing. She can stay. :D
  • When Death consoles you about death.
  • I shall always remember Vladdy Poppins.
  • Nah. Making a lifestage exclusive to an EP would create a lot of problems (My First Pet stuff kind of deal) and I definitely would not advocate the practise by buying such an EP. Also gotta say I just really don't care about pre-teens. I would rather they had done current teenagers differently instead of adding another…
  • O hey, a stuff pack I actually own because the amount of content it has almost makes it feel like a gamepack. For a price of a stuff pack, what's not to love. Also, the CAS has some of my favorite items.
  • I say depth because, while variety is nice, shallow features just can't hold my interest. Depth is what makes meaningful content and therefore creates variety by itself because you then have more ways to utilize said content. E.g. I'll take these in-depth vampires and werewolves any day over a pack which would introduce 3…
  • I'm a completely hopeless builder so I basically always use pre-existing houses and edit them to fit my needs. So Gallery is utilized fairly regularly. Though I dislike how many of their "starter houses" are overcluttered with excessive MOO use and basically anything but a starter house when you look at the price, but…
  • This one cracks me up. "I'll cover myself from head to toe against those nasty bee stings. What? The baby? Pfft, whatever, they'll be fine."
  • I don't touch their genetics at all. I only decide hairstyle, eyebrows/facial hair, clothes, and such. I might rarely change their haircolour as well but that's not "going against genetics". I should know since there was a time when I colored my own hair blue.
  • This shall always be one of my main annoyances about the family/kids gameplay. It just feels like they can do nothing playful together without buying some fancy object. Me and my sister loved to play outside using basically only our imagination.
  • I'm very interested in this pack and most likely will buy it at some point BUT I still want to check out reviews and gameplay videos. If it ends up being a shallow buggy mess then I'm in absolutely no hurry to get it or might even skip it. I'm really looking forward for some depth in the family gameplay so if it turns out…
  • I at first let it run wild for my unplayed sims but soon came to a conclusion that it's way too aggressive for my game (alternating between long lifespan and aging off). Just constant mass adoptions followed by death. It really liked to fill whole households with babies, then kill off the parent(s), then my MCC had the…
  • I alternate between long lifespan and aging off. So if I feel like I'm not ready yet to let a sim age up then I'll just turn aging off or make them an occult. If they have family, I especially avoid using tactics which would then make their age "unrealistically inconsistent" to others. E.g. using the youth potions so…
  • "What big teeth you have doctor <3" Irvin is already struggling with his werewolf things, then has to deal with inappropriate patients too. Btw, meanwhile in the laboratory:
