Its a relief that only premades (sims that come with an expansion), not all townies may come with this for those who like the original system. Its optional in the sense its only for the premades going forward, not townies, and you can edit them in CAS or choose not to use the system alltogether. Correct? Its a nice system…
Great ideas! I like the idea of perks being for the whole community. Glad you were able to follow my novel lol; Stellaris is a space grand strategy game that involves some politics with other alien races so it has that system for diplomatic matters.
Games like Stellaris and Rimworld (of course Rimworld's is not T friendly, but you can get the jist) have their own beliefs/customs practiced in the game and I love them! I havent played with Rimworlds personally but I have with Stellaris. Stellaris has their ethics system: https://stellaris.paradoxwikis.com/Ethics…
My gender doesnt define me, it describes me. So do other traits, lifestyles and other things not yet represented. CAS isnt soley for defining your sim, but multiple aspects make up who your sim is. Even then, there are apects of your sim not expressed until you leave the CAS screen.While others have specific ways of…
Yeah, its really something to say "this is a fact of life" as if disabled people arent a fact of life, religious people arent a fact of life, other nationalities/cultures arent a fact of life etc. I made a topic too about their focus on inclusivity:…
This depending on whether it will affect current townies/premades, future townies/premades etc. If it doesnt affect them, then it doesnt really matter. You can just choose to not use it. Its not clear whether its opt in for that or not, ive seen conflicting posts. But if it doesnt affect townies / its opt-in than there is…
It also makes no sense to say those who arent interested in this update and may want it how it originally is hates lgbtq+ because all sims are bisexual by default anyway. Also trying to assume someone sexuality behind a computer screen is absolutely unnecessary, what people decide to use or not use in a game is their…
The biggest thing has always been the personality system for me. Its too dumbed down in Sims 4. The traits are near meaningless, the whims near meaningless. There arent enough comprehensive systems in play that make the game dynamic. This meaning attraction systems, memories, wants, goals etc. Theyre all superficial and…
Yeah, ive seen conflicting comments on whether itll be on for townies, future townies etc. Im sure they will end up addressing it though. And it is good to be careful and thoughtful, especially when directing something towards a worldwide audience.
So if you dont use the feature at all, no townies use it either and its as if the game is the same as before? So basically thats "turning it off"? Theres no reason for it not to be able to turn it off, unless this is meant by its opt-in. But I also seen elsewhere that new townies for future expansions will have preset…
But its also Sims 4 so if the wants/fears are inconsequential then they lose weight to them. If theyre "optional" then they wont really matter. Its good that they can add some sort of chemistry system, I should be able to determine what sex my sim is attracted to. I wonder how "set" or strict those will be. But are sims…
That is true, I forgot that the cursor worked differently for console, im not sure how theyll implement it. They may make more use of that first person view, can bring back that pillar cursor, or maybe let us choose 1 of the 3. Id really love to see private server, im not interested in mmo style
Yeah, in your own sim stories they can be personal and endearing, and I like making my own stories with them. For my multiplayer sims games it felt more like a time management game because Sims 1 needs are really difficult to stay up, so it was a different kind of fun. If the next sims has similiar difficulty theres a way…
Id hate to see a mandatory online multiplayer setting. While I like playing alone, I like the idea of playing the sims with my family or friends so im open to an optional online or couch co-op. Ive played sims co-op with Sims 1 console and it is pretty fun.
See, i feel the same thing about Sims 4. I dont see it getting any better. I didnt buy all the expansions/dlc because ive been waiting on 5 for years because I need Sims 4 core to change if im going to enjoy it. Yes we can agree to disagree!
