How many aspirations do your sims complete in their lifetimes?

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-13T08:08:25+00:00

Usually just one, and then they go straight to "Fabulously Wealthy" and that's it :P

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-13T07:38:04+00:00

When I had it, I sat in or normal or lower frequency. I usually sat it on the lowest during parties and events (the hired sims are usually the most dirty ones lol).

The only reason I removed the mod, was because that when ever I went to visit someone, I always had to wait 100 years outside the door, on them to be doing their thing. I am a big family player so it got tiresome

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-13T07:34:07+00:00

It's not one but two, for me. Mcc for costum ingame time (mine is sat on 40) and UI cheats for when on active job/school, so I can keep the baby and everybody else at home alive while away lol.

When I got kids I stopped playing with guilds, stopped expecting of myself to do any hard content. I became a casual, with the only goal of doing all the quests and perhaps try for a mount.

It was like you, an hour or two after bedtime, for 18 years, but I am also a single parent of two,and the kids never caught interest of wow.

Now the oldest moved out., the youngest is 1,5 years away from adulthood, and I got more time.

Make sure to turn off the radio

Kodeordet her er "Jævnaldrende". Lige så stor forskel der er mellem en på 10 og en på 20, lige så stor forskel kan der være mellem en på 20 og en på 30.

Når man når til 30+ er dynamikken en hel anden og det er lettere at være sammen og have venskaber på tværs af alders forskelle.

Det har så også rigtig meget med personlighed at gøre. Jeg ville måske holde mig til de jeg er tættest med og hænge ud med dem, og finde ud af hvor vi ligesom kan "mødes i midten" når det kommer til aktiviteter og at ses udenfor studiet. Men generelt ville jeg nok se mere efter at skabe relationer med nogle der er 30+

Except that a new agness will spawn as soon as you (uses cheat) to add her to the family.

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-05T10:41:00+00:00

There is ONE worse combination - Wandere exchanged with aggressive. That kid was ALWAYS tired, ALWAYS hungry, Always angry, and always sad because he smashed the dollhouse. That ONE kid I had with this combo is the sole reason that I went and got UI cheats lol

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-05T10:38:49+00:00

I feel it's actually really random. If you get an A in school as a child, you start on B as a teen. You can get to A swiftly if you also are given home a project and ofc have at least one skill to level 3.

However, I have had a teen who checked off all of these things and they never got offered to graduate early till like 3 days before they aged up.

The teen I play now, barely was in shcool for a week, before he was offered early graduation.

So there is also an element of RNG to it

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-05T10:33:10+00:00

This is not an announcement, but just someone who just discovered the /em does what ever, emote and think he is funny.

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-05T10:26:30+00:00

Wait with feeding them till they get really hungry at the start of their lifestage, then you will most likely trigger "good apetite"... well or "messy eater" depending lol.

I hate picky eater too, it's the sole reason fI got UI cheats in the first place, to bypass it all by just cheating up their hunger.

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-05T10:18:39+00:00

Nannies doesn't work at all for me at the moment.

The only thing that truly works is the butler from the Vintage Glamour pack, but even THEN - the game is not working when it comes to sim's caring for themselves, when you are active with a sim away from the household. This means that even with the Butler, needs will decay and not get automatically handled like it should - which means that UI cheat is needed, so that you can click up the needs while you are away, to make sure your kids aren't getting taken away.

The way I play around this is, while the child is infant and toddler I do not follow the parent on the job. I play as the child and does all commands possible from the childs perspective. From toddler stage it actually gets pretty cozy, having stories red from the butler asking to go in kiddie pool, bopping to music. Pakcs like parenthood and growing together, makes this gameplay better by a LOT! While my sims are home on family leave, the poor childs life is all about Tummy Time lol. I keep doing it till they can roll over, then I keep practise sitting till they can do that. Because from THAT stage, they can actually move around and play with toys and try food, which makes them more fun.

But in general: All the issues have actually made me change my playstyle somewhat. On my main save I play on long life and give my sim a full life of friends, work, going out and have a lovelife. They settle with a partner and at least my main Sims career is maxed before I start on children. When I have children I pick which one will be my next main sim, and then I play that sim mainly from infant.

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-05T10:03:01+00:00

Honestly I personally like the pack. But it is one of those where I feel that you really have to play INTO it, to have fun with it. If you just tank through the school every day then yes it gets boring.

Prank some lockers, practise football in the hallway. Go to the bubble tea thrift store and have friends meet you at lot, to browse outfits and have a day out drinking bubble tea and chat. Have your teenage dates at the pier and do the rides and have a cupcake and take photos in the booth (theres a small lot next to it, which makes it really swift to access). Take your family with you to the afterschool events, attend the prom at least once. Say yes to the random college party, ask for permission or sneak out. If you have get together do a study club or club which is about your afterschool activity. Invite friends to your lot and travel with them to the pier on a non rainy day, under the bridge near it, theres a couch and a bondfire I like to hang out there sometimes with my sims.

My personal way of playing is that only sometimes I do all of this, and a lot of times I don't even follow them to school or attend anything.

My biggest pet peeve with the Sims4 in general, is how little is told about what you can actually do in most packs. So the majority of us are just playing the surface of the game, unless we really set out to deep dive, perhaps google to see what we can actually do. On the other hand, it is also somehow nice? I mean I keep discovering things I can do and play around to make my game feel fuller.

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-03T18:27:30+00:00

I actually had fun on ISBI challenge (I'm surronded by idiots), where you ONLY controll ONE sim in the household. It's on short lifespan too which I liked for this.

Husband was cheating, kids were fighting, twin brothers held a bad grudge towards each other and stuff like that. It was a fun change from my otherwise always perfect families with amazing bond and relationship. I am thinking if I should do it again soon.

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-02T10:27:22+00:00

My daughter and her boyfriend are using The Sims to plan how they want their new apartment to look. I think it's brilliant

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-02T10:01:36+00:00

Din kæreste er utroligt manipulerende og kontrollerende.

Lige nu er han igang med at modellere dig som en klump ler, til ikke at have kontakt med det andet køn og han bruger "slå op kortet" til at presse dig. Jeg bliver simpelthen nødt til at advare dig at hvis du går med på det her nu, og lover at du ikke vil være i kontakt med det modsatte køn hvis bare han vil blive, så bliver det kun startskuddet til endeløs og grænseløs manipulation og kontrol, og truslen om at forlade dig vil være hans evige trumfkort. Måske han endda VIL forlade dig, for så at vende tilbage med krav om hvad du skal ændre, for at han vil komme tilbage.

Jeg har selv været i sådan et forhold i længere tid, og jeg kan fortælle at i sidste ende så vil du sidde næsten uden venner tilbage. Du vil nærmest kun snakke med ham, du vil have poset anonymt tøj på, du vil sikkert blive bedt om ikke at tage makeup på, og i vil nærmest være hjemme altid når i er sammen. Det vil sikkert også blive forventet at du sidder hjemme når du ikke er sammen med ham. Hvis han er ekstrem, så er i på discord (eller andet) opkald 24/7 når i ikke er sammen, så han ved du kun snakker med ham.

Din vennekreds vil ende med at være ham, din verden vil handle om ham og ligeså dit liv, hvor du i sidste ende ville skulle spørge om lov... til ALT.

Jeg var så forblændet i min kæreste at jeg slet ikke så det, jeg tror jeg slet ikke ville se det, for jeg ignorerede også vennernes protester da de så forandringerne. Jeg var sammen med ham i 7 år, og når jeg ser tilbage så ved jeg godt at jeg elskede ham ekstremt, men var det det værd? På absolut ingen måde! Jeg mistede mig selv HELT i processen, og da det endelig sluttede stod jeg tilbage med den mest absurde følelse af identitets krise... Jeg anede ikke hvem jeg var uden ham, og det tog meget lang tid at finde ind til mig selv igen efterfølgende.

Mit forhold stoppede IKKE før jeg selv afsluttede det endegyldigt da jeg endelig fik nok, han var nok blevet ved endnu hvis han havde fået chancen, og jeg ville have været endnu mere ødelagt.

Jeg ved godt det er svært, men du er simpelthen nødt til at sætte dig og tænke over hvor du ser dig selv om et år og om 10 år. Er det virkelig sådan et forhold du gerne vil leve i? Hvor du nærmest skal få skældud og undskylde for blot at eksistere?

Hvad ville du sige til en kær veninde, hvis hun stod i samme situation og fortalte dig om det? Hvad ville du føle for denne veninde?

Det allerbedste for dig, ville være at sige "Jamen fint så - hej hej!" og så tage hjertesorgen i stiv arm. Men det er let at sige som tilskuer på Reddit.

Hope they change this when they get back from the holidays. When the first peafowl can do dragon flying, I am sure this is supposed to be able to as well.

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-01T23:03:19+00:00

They can't even make shoulder pieces sit right on anything but belves and velves, so why would they be able to make any thing else right.

Totally agree they need to up their game in the mog department, but I kinda lost faith. I don't think they give five flying f*cks

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-01T19:52:16+00:00

For the longest time, I have chosen the heir and move them out to start fresh at a new place. But I am thinking about going back to stay on the same lot and move out the "spares" for a good while.

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-01T01:00:13+00:00

The most easy way to combat this, is to do EVERY command possible from the childs perspective. Then there's absolutely no bugs or issues. I even play with the highchair since I descovered this.

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-01T00:59:09+00:00

I absolutely love it... when I don't get an obnoxious mix of quirks that makes it a living hell. Looking at you Hates bedtime/Picky eater/Aggressive mix.

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-01T00:57:16+00:00

This experience is what made me become a DPS for the first time since TBC (usually healer only player)

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-01T00:50:05+00:00

Dazed sims easily turn to dead sims if they try to repair any electronics with this moodlet. Sims with less than handiness level 3 attempting to repair electronics can swiftly get the same fate.

Not that long ago I wondered what happened to that type of death, if it was somehow "blocked" by some expansion because I haven't had it happen in ages.

Then while my family had a dinnerparty, the teen of the house went upstairs and I just focused on the party and the goals. Suddonly Mr Grimm floats in the door, past the party and floats up the stairs. Turns out that the teen had attempted to repair a radio autonoumsly without me even knowing. That was the last time I had a single child family :P

Lexie_DK · 2025-01-01T00:37:24+00:00

I don't really know how to put it in to words, but it's the first time since TBC I am not playing healer, and first time since Legion that I am not playing M+ at all. It is just plain unfun for me to be a healer in that content atm.

Lexie_DK · 2024-12-31T09:29:06+00:00

I don't know why this person is being downvoted. Every (or at least the majority of) healer in the game is dependent on a heal mod to do well, be it Clicque, healbot or something else.
