  • No, and I doubt they would ever implement something like that.
  • Well, no. As a player very passionate about original storytelling, I find using existing characters from established backgrounds/plots too stifling to my creativity. I do, however, often take inspiration from characters in books, movies, games, etc. when populating the worlds with my own townies, that don't necessarily…
  • Nah. It really does seem redundant to me in a game without gradual aging to begin with. If future iterations of the game come programmed with it then cool. But in this iteration? Seems more like a hassle and waste of resources than anything. In my more story driven saves I just choose to control these aspects as the player…
  • I'm taking a short break from my legacy save now that my heir's brother graduated. He's a vampire and I figured I'd like to see firsthand the difference between vampire and spellcaster in terms of how they survive university. My spellcaster was playing the violin in her apartment to gain some skills in hopes of a…
  • I don't care much about the aspect of groceries, unless they placed rabbithole buildings for it in neighbourhoods (or assigned the mechanic to any set dressing build nearby) that you could send a sim off to, similar to S3. And I don't like rabbitholes, but really if I had to go through loading screens to buy groceries I…
  • Hybrids, though I'm not the least bit hopeful about it. Second would be werewolves, but I must say that as a (semi) occult player I'm disappointed to see how many would want werewolves just in hopes of body hair. That should already be in the game, or be patched in. Just like with people voting for mermaids to get ocean…
  • 1. Trait overhaul. There isn't much of a difference between even something that should be drastic like good and evil sims, and yet? And for the love of all that is holy, make trait based moodlets stronger if we're still sailing that emotions selling point. The only way my gloomy sim remains gloomy in a well-decorated house…
  • Yeah, you might just be checking when it's closed like @Simpatsyann said. It's open three times (breakfast, lunch, dinner) between 7am and 11pm. It closes for a while between mealtimes.
  • Gambling just conceptually doesn't appeal to me at all, so no. Subjective boundaries and all. I can see how this sort of thing would appeal to others though, so if we get something like it I would just not buy it myself, as simple as that. In terms of what @Paigeisin5 said though, besides what we can already do with…
  • I've been experiencing this too. Right now I'm remedying it with the UI cheats extention mod by weerbesu so I can just check off the work tasks if they come up as not started when I get to the studio. So if you're okay with mods, try that for the time being.
  • @Dianesims Huh. I got my first servo to level 10 in a about two sim weeks after activation, while getting him and my sim through university. If you cancel out of the download and have your servo go learn a few skills and it doesn't increase your enhancement percentage then yeah, it's a bug. Otherwise it's working as…
  • I don't care too much about cars in general, but I'd still like to have them in the game. A lot of people have been asking for cars, and I wouldn't mind them for the sake of realism, especially in terms of the family homes I build. If repairing cars was also implemented I'd be pleased as I've had some sims who could fit…
  • I just witnessed the return of the lottery event in my game earlier today.
  • Yes, and that's why in my current save I've avoided him as best as I can. I find him quite charming so if I get a sim caught up chatting with him I'm always very aware that all my plans are out the window if we get close, because I've never been able to refuse his offer (not that that the option isn't there, I just can't…
  • Are you just leaving your servo there offline? While the passage of time does increase the progress, it is excruciatingly slow. We're talking days, most likely. Which probably gets longer for each level, I'd assume. To boost the the progress, let your servo live. They need to learn normal sim life. Learn new skills, build…
  • I renovated one of the Foxbury dorms, and didn't really have this issue. None of my decor was technically replaced, some roommates just changed swatches for some of their items. And alright, if they like the blue one more, sure, whatever. I even left some desk space untouched for a couple of rooms since I knew they'd be…
  • Does Caleb still call to invite your sim over to ask them if he can turn them? I haven't befriended Caleb in my current save, but it used to happen with more or less any played sim who got close with him.
  • The first sim I put through university started out with four courses his first term. At first I felt very overwhelmed, and despite finishing off that term with straight A's he had no social life to speak of and wasn't doing too hot overall. Second term I decided to tone it down a bit and picked two courses + one elective.…
  • Cyan got a degree in drama at Britechester and partook in the spirit corps. His brother Creed attended Foxbury for a degree in computer science, and joined the robotics club. Now if their sister Chip would just get off Morgyn's back I might send her off to get a degree in biology.
  • Besides a lot of what has already been mentioned (an equivalent of generations, more occults, anything that brings different types of worlds etc.) I'm honestly just waiting for the resize stuff pack that brings us oven-made cupcakes, reasonably sized playground sets, dollhouses, stuffed animals, microscopes, telescopes and…
  • Good luck for when you do. I'm sure you'll find a way that works for you!
  • Far more than expected from a player who doesn't like city life irl. In my current save I have several households living in different parts of San Muyshuno. My current heir has one of his aunts living there with her wife, raising a daughter together. His roommate in university moved there after graduation and his cousin…
  • In my sim's third term at Foxbury all of his roommates from his first and second term were replaced. By violin players. All of them. Every. Single. One of them. Bunch of UBrite rejects...
  • I really wanted to send my heir's cousins and his childhood friend to university along with him, without having to control all of them, and just have them there with him for the ride, those intended UBrite being his roommates, the rest attending Foxbury. And originally I had planned to have his brother attend Foxbury and…
  • I found this infuriating while building servo. I'm sure there are mods out there to help with this, but while I have no issues with mods and use plenty myself, we shouldn't need to use mods for something like this. This is just plain stupid by design and they should fix it.
  • I did enjoy the story, it was a refreshing change at the time and I had my hometown hero's son reawaken the mother later. It doesn't have much in terms of replay value beyond that, but it still has some nice features I use frequently. If a similar concept came out I would want multiple endings and a longer story overall.…
  • It depends on how many courses you take per term. One term lasts for a week and the maximum amount of courses you can do is four, netting you four credits (1 course = 1 credit) and you need twelve credits to graduate. So, if you took the full workload each term you'd finish university in the shortest amount of time; three…
  • Get together is definitely one of the packs I personally consider must-haves after things like Seasons and Parenthood. I originally got it just because aesthetically speaking the world is stunning and is right up my alley. But considering the club aspect just keeps growing with each pack that comes, it's something I find…
  • I was wondering about this sim too as I just recently noticed them popping up in my saves but never saw them before. I like their design, might have to integrate them into my story somehow. Definitely prefer them over the Sulani npcs.
  • Nearing 3,000 last time I checked. But the reality is exponentially higher as I play almost exclusively offline and have played since launch. The only time I'm online is if I need access to the gallery and after connecting I don't always bother going offline again, so those 3k are just from those instances or if I've…
