  • Emily, the sea monster from Get Together! She's not exactly a dragon, but she's still precious and special.
  • And sadly, it seems to be working. They're back to making silly posts instead of hiding away and limiting what they say. They've moved on because people are too tired or have given up on hounding them. And I don't blame people. But I feel like the battle has already been lost. We're just frogs in a pot of boiling water,…
  • Thank you for another opp First choice: Party Essentials Second choice: Urban Homage
  • Somewhat related, but my conspiracy theory is that, one of the big reasons for the giveaways is, they want to show that people are getting packs and playing the game more because of it. They don't have to tell investors they were giving stuff for free: they just need to show that the game has tons of engagement and more…
    in Did I miss it? Comment by Gordy April 7
  • So wait, 2 pre-existing hairs will have 24 new swatches, in addition to ones that already exist? So they'll have almost 50 swatches?
  • For me, I'd like 1-2 Expansion Packs a year 1-2 Game Packs a year (1 if we get 2 EPs in a year, 2 if we only get 1 EP) 1 Stuff Pack 0 or -1 Kits. And at least 1 substantial, game-play based improvement to the base game. I'd say that we could go for less paid content and more bug fixes, but I've given up on that at this…
  • Strange, The official Sims accounts on Twitter, Instagram and (I think) Tiktok haven't said a thing. In fact, they have been pretty silent lately, aside from retweeting other peoples' posts. I wonder why they're so quiet? :)
  • OH!!! Anne Anne Droid.
  • I don't experience too many bugs, and outside of annoying pop-ups about friendship or prom, you can generally ignore the pack's gameplay. Expulsion only really happens as a consequence for a sim's actions during an active school day.
  • Tbh I wouldn't be surprised if sales matter at all. Like it probably takes next to no effort to maintain that button, and unless it's provably hurting sales (which would be hard to prove anyway), there's no harm for them if they keep it. The real goal might be to leave it in and normalize it to players, so they can slowly…
  • Torch. Like a blowtorch, a spark of rebellion, or the purple dragon from The Sims 1: Makin' Magic Expansion Pack.
  • There was at least one dragon reference in the new pack. I can imagine dragons might have a subtle link to music.
  • Yeah, basically. My big ol' thesis statement is that it'd be a mess, even more of a mess than the type of thing you're bringing up. What I posted would give us something like sims having whatever pronouns the player wants, while sentence structure might default to a masculine subject or have notable errors in them. But if…
  • Yeah, I was thinking how it'd be pretty awkward to put into Portuguese and Spanish. I suppose they could just let people put in their own custom pronouns and just ignore a lot of the gendered words and grammatical mistakes, leave that up to the player to deal with. But I could see why people would find that super lazy,…
  • Oh dang. I was just about to play the game, after missing out for 2 months because of a game-corrupting glitch. Now we have another game-corrupting glitch?

  • Tbh aside from everything else wrong with the button, I gotta say, the aggressive advertising gives me the impression that The Sims 4 is flopping and desperate for sales. You're getting up to three different levels of advertising before you can even play the game. (Four, if they ever decide to put ads in loading screens.…
  • Thinking about it, I now have several ideas for sims* Hoseki: The jeweler family I mentioned earlier, who live on the mountains of Mt. Komorebi. All of them are named after gems, metals and minerals. One of them will be a Gemology teacher at the magic school. * Mistress Death: A Spellcaster who uses her jewelry to contact…
  • I don't think we should compromsie and accept a non-pulsating button. The button should be an option, or removed entirely. If we give these companies an inch, they'll keep on trying to take more and more. They'll try to normalize it. It's like putting a lobster in water and slowly turning up the heat, little by little
  • So we have those pop-up ads when you boot up the game, the majority of the home screen dedicated to advertising packs and showing off sales, and this pulsating button we can't remove?
  • I checked and it seems like it was fixed. I had a lot that was stuck on residential rental. When I booted up the game after the patch, it was back to being a residential.
  • You should pick four winners, but then have them fight to the death until 2 are left. I feel like that would be in the spirit of a sims-related challenge.
  • Ohh, in the Marvel universe, there's jewelry that allows vampires to safely walk around in sunlight. That'd be pretty cool, I think.
  • Also I'm kind of annoyed that with every craft table requires you to stand up while you're working on them. It's awkward to just stand and work for hours when you don't need to. And it's not like the marketers aren't aware, because they put a chair beside the crafter table in the trailer, to give the impression that one…
  • Gemology will be an elective course at my magic school. There will be one spellcaster family dedicated to crafting magical jewelry and statues, and they'll sell them to a local occult shop. They'll get their material from a crystal forest in the middle of a rocky crystal land. I might get TOOL so I can dot that island in…
  • Tbh I was thinking that too lol. Not necessarily that we should get an m/m couple in a trailer, just that we're getting yet another femme, young adult couple. I'm hoping the lead sim is nonbinary or transmasc or something, but at least I can appreciate that they're more androgynous. They break the mold a bit. Meanwhile,…
  • Thanks for the opporutnity again I like the color red.
  • OH OKAY IDEA here me out on this one I surround a lot with sized-up crystals and junk. Like a mountain of crystals that encircle the lot. And if your sim manages to find a way around it, they can visit the monochrome land of crystal, play in the sacred healing waters (ie a pool), dance among the fairy lights (firefly…
  • https://twitter.com/SimMattically/status/1759975616697307356/photo/2 The crystal gnome. Ahh, now I want to make a crystal forest with crystal gnomes, a crystal cave and maybe even a crystal house somehow
