You know, in pursuit of the vision of my story, I have done many challenging scenes... grand battles between vampires and witches, town meetings between competing werewolf packs. I even did a small wedding. Rarely have I encountered a greater and more frustrating challenge than getting four teenage girls to sit down and…
@DaniRose2143, as a fan of Schemes and Dreams from the beginning, I am sad to see it end. However, I fully support your decision. We write and share these stories for fun and when it is no longer fun, it's time to stop. I look forward to the new stories you choose to share.
I agree. That said, there are many problems with Sims 4 that I rely on mods to fix until that much hoped for day when EA gets around to fixing it themselves. This is another one. Is that OK? No, it's not. Am I happy about it? No, I'm not. Am I living with it? Yes, I am.
@GalacticGal, if you're not having fun, it might be time to have a good think about things. I know, the last time I found myself not having fun with this stuff, I thought back to when I last did have fun and tried to figure out what was different and was in my power to change to get back to that. After all, the whole point…
Not so much with the keeping up today, but I've clicked Awesome a lot and wanted to leave a few comments... @DaniRose2143, the new worldbuilding looks nice. @LeucosiaX, amazing fort. Absolutely amazing.
@GalacticGal, sometimes, the game just knows. :) Personally, I use MWS for the clothes and the build/buy stuff. The few weddings I've held since I got it have been small, basic affairs with any fancy stuff being drawn not from the game scenario but from my own placement of sims, creative screen captures and writing.…
You know, I'm really starting to wonder... where is Edwards in the "present day" Wryd'verse? :o The problem with introducing an awesome character, who is clearly pretty central to Cas's teen years, in flashback story is that he wasn't in the first three stories. I'm going to have to ponder what he's been up to. (Killing…
@Ellupelluellu, thank you. Frankly, that picture took a lot of work, find some good CC and using a few build cheats, but it felt really important to the story. I think it was worth it.
@GalacticGal, because that's not stressful at all... :D Isn't it funny how invested we get in the lives, loves and dreams of what are essentially digital dress-up dolls. Because, somehow, they aren't. We create their stories and those lives, loves and dreams are our own. :) It's cool...
I hear you. I have days when I shout "forbidden words" at this game... and then I take a couple of days off from it and watch something cheerful on a certain mouse-themed streaming service. :) Eventually, I find my way back and work through whatever my problem is.
@GalacticGal, I had Rory Oaklow get that same midlife crisis, despite having a Fated Mate. I just ignored it. Eventually, midlife crisis does go away... and she didn't lose anything by ignoring the tasks.
@DaniRose2143, full confession... as you know, there is a strong part of me that is really into the idea of crossovers between our universes. I sometimes have to forcibly remind myself that UtTS is your story. I'm just a crazy fan... and Londyn and Danielle's appearances in Wyrd Tales is my version of fanfic. I'm just…
As someone who has long ago become notorious among my readers for killing off sims, it may surprise folks to know that I'm really not that accepting of the Reaper at all. :) Generally speaking, I play with aging off and my sims die when I want them to die, and not before. I had one side save (not part of my main story),…
@DaniRose2143, love their younger looks. Now I'm both looking forward to this and struggling with the multiverse of it all. :) I'll get over it. @Caerfinon, work friends can be fun. New chapter of Raven's Apprentice is up for anyone interested... ... and let me just say, I'm really pleased with this picture. Actually…
@BlueSeaWaves, curiously I end up the opposite problem... my main characters each have something like 10,000+ points after I've bought almost every trait I was remotely interested in them having. That might just be me playing with aging off...
