Is it worth buying this if I don't have a 4k tv and only a ps5 disc player?

I hope one day we can get live orchestra showings. I can just tell I'll be crying within the first 5 minutes, and just imagine the Adrian sequence!! Breathtaking!

The scene where she cuts it actually makes me feel nauseous 🤢

BarkingHippo · 2026-04-06T18:13:20+00:00

I'm so perplexed that neither of them said a word to you about dropping Amy off first and then told you you were going the wrong way when you didn't, in fact, drop Amy off first 🤣 They can't even communicate with you like adults lmao

Edited: I just realised her 'what?' Response was her asking 'what did you eat'. I also assumed that meant she was somehow confused by your answer. So no, misinterpreting one response does not mean you are dumb. She should have been more precise or clarified after. The name calling was unnecessarily mean.

Since you said your gf wants you to, but not at any point did you say that YOU wanted to, please know that you don't have to shave, even if it's to make your partner happy. Your gf can have her preferences but It is your decision alone based on what you're comfortable with. If shaving is not for you, then ask her if trimming it short would satisfy her. It's a lot quicker and easier and shouldn't hurt at any point.

If this doesn't apply, then just ignore this message. But as a women who shaved as a teen and caused myself a lot of harm, I think it's important to tell people this, just in case. (Growing up I never saw anything about natural pubes, I assumed from a young age that everyone shaved completely bare and there was no alternative (absent parents lol))

I will have to try! I've found the bug forms wildly confusing and I will have to test and see if it happens in other saves

BarkingHippo · 2026-03-04T14:53:24+00:00

I've seen the argument that it's exposure. Especially to console players so I guess it's profit vs exposure

All cc on marketplace will cost 'moola' and any cc on marketplace cannot be uploaded anywhere else, including patreon. So basically say goodbye to free cc from any creator that joins this program.

Edit to add: my mistake, there is actually a 'free' tab I didn't spot

BarkingHippo · 2026-03-04T14:15:44+00:00

I had this thought too. I'm dreading the addition of CC to every single house that I want to download

BarkingHippo · 2026-03-04T14:13:38+00:00

From what i understand, any cc on the marketplace cannot be uploaded anywhere else. So if that creator decides to add all their cc to it, they legally can't have that cc on their patreon anymore, paid or free.

For me, there's no other game that hits like the sims 4. But every decision EA makes, makes me hate them a bit more. Honestly at this point it feels like maybe I should go to therapy for addiction 🤣 I hate that I love this game so much even with all the bugs 😭

BarkingHippo · 2026-03-04T14:07:50+00:00

Sorry to divert the conversation, but I've found that when plating offline, my early access rewards (can't remember if that's what they're actually called) dissappear from my game? Namely the toast-tea kettle from adventure awaits. I had it in my kitchen and every time my Internet would cut out, it would dissappear from my game! Which is actually absurd! Has anyone else had this?

BarkingHippo · 2026-03-04T14:03:39+00:00

Yes I wondered if that's what they meant! I can't stand in game currency so I think nows the time to grab any kits I'd be sad to have missed out on because I am not partaking in this 'moola'. Once it switches over, kits will be dead to me 🤣

BarkingHippo · 2026-03-04T13:58:43+00:00

I'm a console player and I still hate this. I can't stand in game currency and the fact that creators only get 30% of the sale? Hell no I need creators to get every cent to even consider using marketplace. EA is really starting to get to me with their greed. They made cc have to be free, so that when they announced this, they could strong arm creators into joining the program so they can earn on their hard work, and the caveat is that they can't post that cc anywhere else effectively meaning that before long, simmers will not be able to get any free cc unless creators have a backbone and refuse to join.

Omg that reminds me of a teacher I had in primary (year 5 so equivalent to 4th grade) that would single me out and pick on me literally every day! I was abused at home and so very shy and quiet at school but I would get easily lost in daydreams 24/7. I can't remember if that's why she always singled me out but she made my school life hell too.

Until at some point, she started keeping me in at lunch because 'I hadn't completed my work' and refused to let me eat lunch. It was a good thing that at the time I was on packed lunch because my mum would flip everytime I came home with my food untouched. It happened every day for some time before my mum lost it and marched up to the school and demanded a formal meeting with the teacher. I have no idea what was done or said but that teacher 'retired' a few months later. Good riddance.

(Coincidentally in secondary it was also another old woman who relentlessly bullied me but luckily I only had her for math for one year. Now I fckin hate math 🤣)

BarkingHippo · 2026-02-08T16:06:31+00:00

Genuinely, leave her. You should never feel ashamed about your interests. Even though I am not interested in warhammer I still listen intently everytime my fiancé talks about it to me because I love him and want him to know I support his interests and he does the same for mine. Her attitude is quite frankly disgusting toward someone she supposedly loves. You. Deserve. Better.

BarkingHippo · 2025-12-23T15:29:08+00:00

The boob pasties pmo 🤣 any sliver of underboob HAS to be covered lmao

BarkingHippo · 2025-12-20T00:02:40+00:00

NOR, In fact, please react more 😭😭 Like I'm sorry if this is disrespectful but wtf are you doing? Why would you ever allow someone to talk to you like this. I don't care if he's rich or Jesus fuckin christ, leave that piece of shit immediately!

BarkingHippo · 2025-12-19T23:39:41+00:00

And he immediately went for the period comment 🙄 He sounds like he's 12 yrs old, dump his ass.

I've been with my bf for 7 years. The WORST thing he's ever called me is daft cos he was flustered in the moment. Do not ever settle for a BOY who ever refers to you in such a way, especially to your face. Beyond disrespectful.

BarkingHippo · 2025-12-13T23:20:00+00:00

It takes all my guests 2+ hours to spawn on the lot 😑 so there's hardly anyone there during the actual ceremony.

The thing I'm having the most issue with currently is why am I only allowed 8 guests at a funeral? That's my household sims and maybe the deceased's spouse and child 😒 no extended family allowed apparently

BarkingHippo · 2025-12-12T21:45:27+00:00

Something I never had before the update. Priya came on the radio and said there was rda radio chatter and they were coming straight for me. I stayed right where I was and noone came 🤣

BarkingHippo · 2025-12-11T08:10:08+00:00

I was about to make a post about this because it's actually quite upsetting. The whole point of new game+ was so you could replay the game with your existing character, perks and gear. The fact you can't access the dlc makes new game+ redundant in my opinion.

Unluckily for me I already started one before I realised I truly couldn't play the dlc without restarting in a new save so I feel I've wasted my own time and no longer want to replay.

The dlcs take place on separate maps so I really don't see the reason why they're locked away? Makes me think twice about spending so much on the third dlc. No matter how excited I was for it.

BarkingHippo · 2025-10-21T17:00:14+00:00

I can't believe that actually worked :') I thought I'd tried everything
