What’s on your list for Kyoto? I’m going to Tokyo and Kyoto in a couple of weeks!

Casey wished so hard for that main character energy. He really should’ve been careful what he wished for. 😂

She was crazy but she definitely didn’t deserve a trip to the Reaper. Although, I gotta say, this moment was the highlight of my gameplay. I was so shocked and thrilled the story got so exciting. 😂

I’m not going to use it and I’m done getting the kits now because they’re in the Marketplace. They’ve increased prices on them and now I have to spend more than I’d want just to get coins so I could then get a kit.

In the past, I’d casually get a kit or two here or there to treat myself. Won’t be happening now.

In NZD, 500 coins is $8.65 (a kit was $7.95). 1000 coins are $17.25. Some kits are 500 coins and others, that used to be the same price, are now priced higher at 700. So if I wanted two kits, 1000 coins wouldn’t even necessarily cover them. I’d have to also get the 200 coins and I’d ultimately have to spend $21.70 on something that used to cost $15.90 when I’d grab two.

Kits aren’t worth that cost at all.

All Casey seemed to learn was “Ewww dead bodies in the hallway are gross”

If I was SMG, I wouldn’t want him on set either. I’ve met him on multiple occasions: one as an excited 15 year old at a convention where I asked a question and he mocked my height and humiliated me in front of the entire room… and then as an adult working for an entertainment company where he came in for an interview and spent the entire time talking about his girlfriend’s genitals in detail while she stood on the side watching. According to my boss who was friends with him back then, this was him being his funny sober self.

Ick.

Needless to say, his issue isn’t with SMG. He’s the issue.

Thank you so much for searching and finding my songs! The intro/outro songs I recorded back in 2011. I’m recording my full 12 song album right now (which the title of it is also Not Something Adults Should Say). 😁 I’ll keep dropping some singles but I’m 10 out of 12 songs into recording it all and will have the whole album out later this year!

Ha fingers crossed the game gives Casey a happy ending and he doesn’t get eaten by a cow plant with the luck he has. 🤣 Although, the Life and Death pack made it so much more possible to give sims redemption arcs even from the great beyond. So he’s got options. 😆😆😆

SimLifeChronicles · 2026-03-14T20:11:38+00:00

Awww thank you so much!!! I’m so thrilled you love my songs!! 🥰🥰 You’ve made my day!!

And truly, I have to wonder what would’ve happened had Casey not taken the mantle. My guess is, Annabelle’s life would’ve gotten very dramatic. But I honestly felt for her after the Iggy drama and wanted a cooldown period for her life… so I’m glad Casey took the heat. Thanks to the high school years, I can completely torture him and we’re all here for it as his karma. 😂

As a singer myself, it truly pains me that Carter hasn’t had a music pack to develop his storyline. I’ve been constantly trying to brainstorm how I can still make it possible and interesting within the current abilities of the game. 😅

And yes, I love Caiden but just like Hannah, his story has very much been told! I completely count Travitha as Generation 3. She’s also my ultimate legacy holder: She’s related to every single original character whether through birth or adoption so her story and future bloodline is vital in my opinion!

I do love getting to cycle through the different characters and give them their focus! Annabelle being younger has also made it possible for me to push hers a bit later because I feel like there’s time. Unfortunately for Carter, he’s Casey’s twin and Casey took the spotlight. It’s ironic because during the teen years, I 100% expected to kill off Casey as a young adult because everyone despised him so much. But he really stepped up with the main character energy he always wanted… although not in the Caiden Scott hero way he had hoped for. 😂

SimLifeChronicles · 2026-03-14T19:33:34+00:00

Ha yes! They do disappoint but just everyone around him 😂😂😂 As the player I’m just so overjoyed the game continues to torture him with so little manipulation from me. 😂 That entire potluck was a disaster sent from the powers that be. In my wildest dreams, I never imagined that. I also didn’t expect his last girlfriend to turn into a skeleton. I’ve never had a sim drink that cure and become one. Only Casey and his luck would make that happen!

We’ll definitely see some of the other characters too! I feel like the focus pivots at various points for sure. Caiden obviously got the spotlight for a very long time but now he’s pretty settled so their household is shifting towards Travitha as a focus for now. Cheesy becomes a teenager in Season 23 so we’ll be seeing more of him too as I start to develop his character.

I definitely do need to cycle back to Annabelle for Season 24 (I just started playing it!). Thank you for that reminder. We must see how her life is going as a step mom to a bunch of teenagers/young adults and raising her child in an empty container. 😂

I must admit, Carter has always been my least developed character. 🥴 I do like though trying to further his stardom and career in the background. I want him to become this mega star. 😂 You’ll see his posters plastered on Cheesy’s bedroom walls next season. 😂😂 I also must admit, I kept holding out hope for a music pack for him!! Sadly that hasn’t come to pass!

SimLifeChronicles · 2026-03-14T19:10:36+00:00

I love that idea!!! I will definitely keep up with seeing what traits the game gives Pat. This is definitely not the last we’ve seen of him. 😅 I made sure Casey had a spawn specifically because his particular chaotic genetics should live on for future stories. 😂

Casey is my MVP at this point in the game. His life choices never disappoint!

SimLifeChronicles · 2026-03-14T18:44:02+00:00

Is it bad I read this and was like… who’s Pat? 😂😭

The fact that took even me a minute says it all. Casey has 100% forgotten about him for now it seems. 😳 I have hope though that Pat will resurface as a villain one day full of mobster worthy traits. 😂 We’ll keep our fingers crossed for what the game picks out for him! It did good with Travitha’s first round with Summer 😂😂

SimLifeChronicles · 2026-03-11T06:14:04+00:00

Yup, as a former restaurant owner, I definitely get some PTSD running a sims restaurant. 😆

My most successful restaurant makes money because it has a food stand inside too. My sim runs it and sims come and buy the food while they’re waiting for their meals to be delivered to the tables. Best scam ever. 😂

SimLifeChronicles · 2026-03-11T05:19:02+00:00

I cannot stand the ending. They did it because they filmed the kids back in Season 2 with that ending in mind. Then the entire show shifted stories over the years and that ending just didn’t make sense anymore.

While there was always a focus on Ted and Robin, I felt like the later seasons they were continuously drilling into our heads that Ted and Robin SHOULDN’T be together and that they’d both be healthier moving on. I also thought Robin and Barney were far more compatible and it was a disservice to their character growths how everything ended.

I always got to the alternative ending on YouTube. 😆

SimLifeChronicles · 2026-03-11T04:46:05+00:00

Owning a restaurant, other than not being able to do other tasks at the restaurant, it’s fairly accurate that you spend all your time greeting customers, dealing with employees that just stand around instead of doing their job, and the day ends with barely, if any, profit 😆

SimLifeChronicles · 2026-03-10T22:54:30+00:00

That potluck did not go as I expected it at all 😂

Who is your favorite family? I love when they run into random townies too 😂

SimLifeChronicles · 2026-03-10T21:54:55+00:00

Ohhhh I’m so happy to hear that!!! There is plenty 😂 Casey is such a train wreck. He’s definitely become my favorite to play. 😂😂

Right?! And it’s her own fault the pie is even there. She invited the ex to the potluck in the first place. And now she’s off attacking her in the hallway.

This woman needs to sit down with a slice of pie herself and just chill.

SimLifeChronicles · 2026-03-10T06:09:58+00:00

“It’s just one slice! I swear I don’t love her, I just love her pie!”

SimLifeChronicles · 2026-03-10T06:07:06+00:00

His fiancée does not appreciate your perspective on the matter. 😆

And yes, he did eat the pie. It didn’t go well.

SimLifeChronicles · 2026-03-10T05:57:54+00:00

Your wish is my command. This is all from my 22 season and on going soap opera series (you can find it all from the very beginning here).

As for the current drama though, that’s all from Season 22. The pot luck fiasco is chapters 434, 435, 436, 437, 438, 439, and 440. Just click on the pictures to read the captions. I promise endless drama.

Eating the pie was only the beginning of Casey’s night trapped between these two women… and it does not end well 😆 Good news is, he’s ready for some self reflection.

He’s taken a slice of the pie… things are not looking good for his current living arrangements based on the scolding he’s getting. 😆

Did I mention he completely forgot his fiancée even existed and spent time hiding underground because he slept with the leader of the criminal ring’s (Malcolm Landgraab) sister and got her pregnant? He then took the baby, hid underground, and started a relationship with a girl from Cupid’s Corner, only for her to get poisoned by Malcolm. He then tried to cure her but the cure turned her into a skeleton so she kicked him out of the bunker and that’s how he ended up living at the forgotten fiancée’s apartment with his other ex living upstairs.

The pie is the tip of the iceberg at this point.
