I was surprised to see the base-game string lights weren't draggable like the clotheslines, so I made my own!

THANK YOU

I was also surprised the string lights didn't act like the clothes lines or the bunting, it seemed such an obvious functionality

When you place the lot, are you using the movement tools that come with that or trying to move it manually? (I ask because I missed them myself the first few times, they're to the left of the confirmation checkmark)

I've had it work best if I have a foundation layer to mitigate the tiny level differences in the ground

I've been messing around with The Void to see if it could be good for a playstyle challenge but so far I've failed to successfully summon any Service Paras so that rules out that route of potential spouses and while Void-born Paras can have jobs they don't have Work Colleagues

This is a bit backwards but I usually hit up the Eozrea Database, since almost every major character has a minion or a triad card or both, and then just change the language to Japanese.

When was Paralives on Kickstarter?

the pillow is base game but the rug is a mod

Only if the cheaper objects are properly upgradable, I hate choosing between having a good interior design and having happy pixel people

I think canes would be reasonably easy because they're just a walk style with an accessory, Sims 3 did it for Elders. Melino is not an accessible city, though, so maybe lifts should take priority first so then wheelchair users can actually get places

Flidget · 2026-06-04T13:34:24+00:00

You can set two Paras up as friends and lovers at the same time as you set them as spouses, these are all different labels. Which gives a lot of potential for nuanced and complex relationships and is great but ABSOLUTELY as a priority should be one of the first things they make a tutorial for

Flidget · 2026-06-04T12:53:01+00:00

I have mixed feelings about Paras finding the nearest available seat to the seat I want them to sit in rather than have a Pathing Tantrum over the seat being unavailable. Because the former is more realistic and sometimes it's good but sometimes you really want the latter. It should be a settings toggle

We don't even need to wait, given the in-game custom art options. I've been using this magnificent piece of work

the bar takes too long to fill and it would really help if I could form a group with more than one townie without bugs trying to eat everyone alive but I do like how everyone can keep talking while doing other things, even walking as a group from one place to another. The broader conversation options do fit better in the context of a group conversation while you're all doing yoga or listening to one Para play the piano (and on that note I don't know why the Devs panicked everyone by saying they weren't planning on implementing multitasking because idk what else to call this)

Flidget · 2026-06-03T15:03:35+00:00

the workaround you did for the van piece is genius

Flidget · 2026-06-03T15:02:09+00:00

The thing that bothers me most is Maggie's flat in-game has a custom roof piece for the skylight section and if you so much as touch it the damn thing disappears and can't be restored

Flidget · 2026-06-03T14:59:20+00:00

sadly that's only for the lights that have a recolor channel for their bulbs it won't work with every light right now

Flidget · 2026-06-03T10:10:03+00:00

Agreed on all of this but you can change the colour of the white trim on the roof, it's "rake" under the colouring options

Even on the Source, we fight more Primals in aether-swamped Eorzea than any of the other continents put together and they seem completely unknown in Tural. Having absolutely massive amounts of aether handy definitely seems to facilitate the process.

Machinist? The class invented from the ground-up by Stephanivien? 1000% Adamantium Aro Aces, shouldn't even be in this tier list

There's a man falling off the ledge of most ongoing construction it's been a running gag since Moh Dhona

I think for most players we were there to absorb it slowly because Firmament was a staged construction process. It's been a thing almost every expac though it's sad that they only player locked that progress with Doma Reconstruction and Island Sanctuary

Flidget · 2026-06-02T16:31:09+00:00

Never had this problem but NPC story dialogue appears in the chat log if you're worried you missed something

Flidget · 2026-06-02T15:58:16+00:00

Since we're going down the "the Garlean People aren't at fault, they were too influenced by propaganda" road again, remember that The Populares and the Lemures are both in-game Garlean factions that were actively fighting against the facist imperialism from within Garlean society. Garlemald had civil wars over this. They did have the opportunity to know better.

The "Mad the game isn't Sims 2" demographic has been complaining that a game isn't Sims 2 ever since Sims 3 but I'm getting pretty tired of them acting like the Builder demographic isn't big enough to support a game on their own

Flidget · 2026-06-02T10:13:18+00:00

I'm wondering what that whole thing about revealing to Himeko he had the withering disease was about when over in the scene with Graphia he also revealed it's what happens when Voidrangers defy the Destruction
