    Is there any good reason to keep Baby Ariel in the game?

    in The Sims 4 General Discussion
    I never see this sim in any of the towns, Del So Valley included. Is there any good reason to keep Baby Ariel in the game? I'm thinking about deleting her from my Master Save but want to make sure she doesn't have any uses before I do.

      I've never seen her in my game, anywhere ever, other than manage households. I'd say go ahead and delete her.

      i think she has immortality trait for some stupid reason so if you don't want trait on randomized other sim then maybe keep her

      then again i don't play randomized townies so i deleted her cause i just delete the whoever spawns with her trait anyway

      She has no value to the game at all, there is supposedly a hidden trait that will respawn on a random sim that looks nothing like her but you would probably just clear that random townie out anyways so delete away.

      I changed her name, turned her into a mermaid, and hooked her up with one of my Reaper offspring sims. Apart from that, can't think of a use for her. :)

      If you don't like Sims who are immortal and will forever be teenagers as your generations grow up, potentially talk to her and die before a single day passes for her, I would say no.

      Otherwise it also depends, do you like having real world people in your game? If also no, deleting her works too!

      I don't even know who she is ontop of only knowing she's real, so it's one of those "influencer" cases which helps on the deletion side

      There was (literally) no reason to have her in the game to begin with.

      I've never seen her in my saves, although I know she's in the game. I thought I'm going to remove her if she starts showing up everywhere, but she's avoiding me and I'm okay with it.
      I like premades, but she's useless and I don't like immortal Sims (unless they're vampires, spellcasters or my own Sims that I've decided to make immortals for some reason). As long as she stays hidden in my saves she can stay.

      I think I've seen her in the wild a grand total of once. I don't worry about sim count, so she's just there, but she's definitely on my deletion list if I ever need to clear out Other Households.

      When I scroll around the neighborhoods, I will see her living in different houses in different saves, but I have never seen her out and about and my sims travel, a lot. In all the forays I've sent my sims on, I have never seen her other than in houses. I'm like Kimmer, as long as she stays out of sight I don't care either. :D

      She comes with guitar and piano skill points, as will every replacement Baby Ariel. So if for some reason one would need a teenager with middling instrument skills, that would be her use.

      She's fun if you have the Vampires pack. Before I learned she was based on a real person, I thought she was just a random celeb sim. I had fun making her a washed-out, Copa Cabana-esque starlet who got captured by a vampire for sustenance. Immortality's not so great when you're locked in a vampire's basement for all eternity.

      Wait, she's based on a real person? Oh gods, no, no, no, absolutely not, nope to tenth degree. I'm gonna have to delete her out of the game and work something else out for my Mermaid sim. I do not, under any circumstances, play with the real life people in my game.

      According to the Sims Wiki she’s based on someone called Ariel Rebecca Martin: https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/Baby_Ariel
      I’ve never heard of her.

      I’ve rarely seen her in-game. I used to have Zerbu’s Go to School mod, and she turned up when I sent my teen Sim to school, but that’s about it.

      I find it ironic that they gave the immortality trait to a celebrity who has become a "Literally who?" like a year after her collaboration happened.

      I’ve seen her in my game but I have no idea who the girl is.
      If Baby is indeed a RL celeb and part of a collaboration she should have been temporary like Millie Bobby Brown that time. If my memory serves me correctly Millie the Sim brought a box of presents for a week and after that she just moved on. Hello and Goodbye. The way it should be. 😅

      My guess is that teen "Baby Ariel" would be a young adult now. ;)

      I'm guessing the Sim version of Baby Ariel is based on this:

      This is a more recent music video:
      (Disney Empire, so in collaboration with "The Sims". Which his fine.)
      Cute!

      Lotta Rosie? Well... heh heh! :D:pB)

      Same here. I never ran across her.
      I don't like a real life person forced into my game and made immortal for no good reason. She has no use in my game, no reason to exist in the sims universe. So the sim version of this 'celebrity' better stays out of my sims' way for her own good.

      I always figured she was supposed to be someone you encounter during the Social Media career and it just never worked and nobody knew or even cared. With her being an immortal I'm almost sure that's what she is. Probably a good question for the team. Why is she immortal and what is supposed to trigger her showing up?

      I have to agree with you on this. She is not a plot character (story-line) in any way, or ever does anything. "Good/Bad/Neutral" or even "annoying" (like Vlad lol). She is just... there.

      Now if she at least randomly showed up everywhere and started singing, ok fine! heh! :D
