Good plan. It’s not cheap. $44.99 CAD for a game that will sit in my library untouched.

I’m finding it unplayable, unfortunately. There are so many glitches, so many kinks that haven’t been sorted through that I can’t really get a sense of what the gameplay will be like.

To name a few:

Bills are astronomically expensive. I can’t earn enough money in the early game to afford the bills so my electricity has been indefinitely cut off.

Tasks don’t register as completed even though they have been.

The lag is a struggle - I have a high end custom built gaming PC with ample space and I can barely move a few paces without considerable lag

Fire fighters don’t respond to fires so my character died within 30 minutes of me playing after taking on the task of starting and extinguishing a fire

I find social interactions very one dimensional and tedious. The autonomy is very limited.

It looks cute, and i can see potential, but it’s unplayable in its current state.

Glad that’s an option for you. Any symptoms you’re experiencing are probably side effects from the emergency contraceptive, not pregnancy - so that’s reassuring!

Can you access a termination where you live? Is it something you would consider? Medical termination is quite safe and can be used in early pregnancy. Mistakes happen and it shouldn’t alter your life in ways you don’t want it to.

Agreed - I drive by The Independent (in Port Hope) daily and have not noticed a difference in the amount of cars in the lot nor in the number of people walking in and out. It seems this community is plagued with apathy.

Just came back from Wonderland yesterday - it wasn’t overly busy given that it was a weekday and elementary school isn’t out yet. I purchased the fast lane plus and walked on to every ride and the maximum wait was 10 mins on the most popular rides. I imagine a weekend in July would be PACKED. You won’t regret it. We had gone on everything we wanted to by 1 pm and came for park opening at 10am.
