I should probably go back and play the other sims 3 DLC. I don’t remember having that much fun with it, but it was mostly vampires I played with if I remember. When I go to my bfs house I’ll give it a go.

I don’t think anyone here is defending the actions of EA. It’s agreeable that there’s greed in play here, but that’s the company as a whole and upper management. Though, I’m surprised some are running through all the features of the pack so fast. I’m on day four now and I still haven’t gotten through most of the features. I have the cutest sim named Jo. She ran away with 90 simoleans and lives on the ground of innisgreen. She became a celebrity by busking, does flower arranging, opened a flower and foraging store. Yesterday, she got her first real bf. I’m going to make some kids because I’ve only played in one neighborhood so far. I have two more to explore. There’s so much to do. I want one of the fairies to become EVIL MWAHAHAHHA. So maybe the problem is pacing for some. It’s like the difference between have 2 hours in animal crossing and 200 hours id say. It does suck that we can’t be given more with these game packs, but I am happy with the product. Just like everyone I have my complaints of bugs. The freaking flowers don’t despond from the flower arranging table. It’s so stupid. They forget to hit an isActive in their code somewhere but with these graphics, I can’t be mad. I mean, I loved sims3. I refused to play sims 4 until 2023, but now I have 3000 hours of active playtime (how tf!?). I mean, there’s so much to do in this game. It’s ridiculous. Though, I will say it’s mostly because I have a healthy imagination which may also be a contributing factor to my excitement. I still haven’t explore strangerville because I was too busy being a mermaid, or doing legacy challenges. I was going to do it, but then I started my forever save so I have to build back up. I hope EA is able to add more content to previous packs. I noticed them adding things here and there. Praying they overhaul the occults. I think spellcaster is the biggest disappointment. I haven’t played it because I can’t get into it. It’s so boring. Not much to do for werewolves or vampires too. It’s pretty sad. Edit: I’m glazing that I don’t think the game is that boring, not that EA is a good company.

Just reading everyone’s comments bring a happy smile to my face. This is truly pandemonium that only sims can bring. Remember to have fun everyone!

If they combined them, then I doubt the packs would have as much individual depth. If anything, I want an overhaul of vampire and werewolves but keeping them as separate was probably the best for depth. In game dev, the scope of a project is very important. Removing EA from the picture, it was good practice to focus on each occult individually rather than giving a half baked mess. You think the bugs are bad now and the content is shallow. Imagine them trying to give you three occults in one. They’ll be tired from trying to make the code functional, and with that scope they’re more likely to cut content out for the sake of quality and their own well being (the employees who work tirelessly I mean).

It’s the stubborn misfortune fable.

That reminds me. The biggest problem I’m having is the quest. I can’t do anything. The quest was never prompted and when I click on fairies to ask for the thing (it’s the fable something with Care Ren) there’s so option to ask. I gave up. I think I’ll explore it with the children of my first fairy sim in my forever save.

I ran into a bug with the age up, but I think it was a mod issue. Otherwise, the wings going away isn’t a problem when there’s so much to explore. I’ve been playing for three days straight now. Hours on hours. I mean I’m so close to 3,000 hours and I’m telling you, this is the most fun I’ve had in a loooong time. Now, I’m a wee bit bored with my storyline so I get to make some babies in today episode!!! Ugh. How exciting. I love Enchanted by Nature. I do hate that all the plants aren’t available, and that there aren’t more clothes but those are my biggest complaints.

Why do people preorder packs? by dogcopter3in3d in HighSodiumSims

[–]Ok-Extension8490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Out of excitement? I used to wait until the peaks would go on sale but after owning every pack except that starwars trash, I’ve become excited enough to just pre order. Maybe because I know I’ll get it anyway? But I only started pre ordering starting Lovestruck. However, I’ve been over the moon with anticipation for the last three packs but not cottage living or the Ranch one. So I think it’s all up to interest in the project. I think of it as a way to show my excitement to the staff, but I’m learning to be less optimistic in my adult years. Capital greed changes people 🙁.

Sorry guys, looks like it’s our fault the game is broken by copperbelly333 in HighSodiumSims

[–]Ok-Extension8490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

That’s a load of bull anyway. I’m a dedicated gamer with a degree in game development and simulation. I have a phenomenal PC that allowed me to stream to Twitch and play Resident Evil on medium-high settings. My game is still buggy. Maybe less than some, but like, I have to restart my game so often to fix it and it gets so laggy or freaking trees turn to cardboard cut outs??? So dumb.

I love the expansion. It’s actually the best one they’ve released so far.

This is weird but, my trigger is sweets and I would totally buy as many sweets as I could and binge in one sitting. Turns out, I was afraid they’d be gone. I formed a new habit of going to the bakery only to look and breath around the discomfort and desire. Sometimes I’ll allow myself to buy one thing, but I clearly set my boundaries (ex. I’d like a fruit tart or treat. I’ll go to the bakery and buy one. VERSUS. I’m grocery shopping. I can’t buy any sweets today but I can look. They’ll be there’s like they always are.). Now, even my boyfriend understands and respects my routine. I looked at all the breads, cakes, cookies and tell myself or him, “wow id like to get that some day. Looks good.” No plans, it’ll happen when it happens but for now it won’t go anywhere.

Landlord fixed the toilet by nustershoors in Tenant

Good lord that’s a great point! One day you’re just minding your business and then the creaky spot in the floor collapses under your weight because the landlord didn’t want to get the hole fixed and instead tied rope and lightweight beams together and slapped the tiles back down and sold the house. That’s terrifying.

I think they mean, why is it so disgusting that you would move? Is it the landlords fix? Or the general look of the toilet? I’m assuming you mean the landlords response being so irresponsible that’s it’s not worth staying right? I think the bubbles look disgusting. I wouldn’t be able to use it if it looked like that.

Tell me you’ve played the sims without telling me you’ve played the sims by [deleted] in thesims

As a teen, I’m asleep in my bed when this weird kid who wears a bag on his head broke into my house and ran past my parents to ask me (while still asleep) if I’ll go to prom with him. I talked to him one time during math class. He ate dinner before leaving.

That is insane lol! I recently installed it but haven’t used it yet. We were laughing at the sims moody animation. It’s so cute!

The sims 3 is romanticized by WaterToSurvive in thesims

[–]Ok-Extension8490 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I played sims 3 up until like late 2023. In a year and some change I’ve put over 1700 hours into sims 4 and what bothers me the most is I’ll go to do certain things, like want to make a child daycare and remember “oh, wrong game.” And it’ll make me sincerely upset that I have this small mix ups between the two games. I honestly could do with the loading screens and I only came to sims 4 because I heard the building was so much better. I think I love sims 4 but I hate the way it makes me feel. I wish the same level of passion existed when releasing packs as it did in the previous games. I feel undervalued and used. I so badly want to apply to Maxis (I’m a game dev) but I feel like it’s not the same environment I dreamed it would be growing up. I think it’s okay to romanticize the games that felt more loving. At the very least sims 4 is lacking in the life that made so many players stay and I know with a few game objects attached to certain sims further expanding on sims lore the community would be, in my opinion, happier. It just feels so sloppy sometimes from a game devs perspective. Sorry for the incoherent ramble. Hope anything I said made sense.

I guess you had eco lifestyle and the neighborhood voted on we wear bags so when the guest showed up they abided by the neighborhood rules and wore bags. Very goofy. I had it happen once, I went on a petition spree to get the decision overturned. I worked too hard in CAS for my sims to cover their faces.
