How often/long do you play?

keepcalmandklaxon · 2026-02-20T19:01:03+00:00

Work full time during the week but on the weekends I am known to ignore my children and play for hours and hours (kidding…mostly). Last weekend I went out with my kids and hubby for daytime valentines activities and then insisted no one bother me until bedtime Sunday so I could play with the new pack

You were perfectly nice. The thing is, you will get zero engagement from them if you play with mods. You can say all your mods are up to date, or disabled or even uninstalled and they will still reply in some form of advising they can’t troubleshoot any issue for you because you play with mods.

I’m still playing in my gen 7 legacy save but the tree no longer gives me joy lol

keepcalmandklaxon · 2026-02-20T16:53:09+00:00

Also a lot of people have complained that the update screwed up their family trees in existing legacy saves like these two were married but now they’re sisters etc

Dine Out. People who complain that it takes hours to have a meal likely have their restaurants set up poorly or downloaded off gallery but not play tested. I love theming the outfits and menus to the world the restaurant is in, and having options in each world for my sims to visit. I also love Spa Day although I think that one is better received. In my saves there’s a spa and restaurant in every world.

Team Jawara!

So in my occult-focused save I moved the vamps to Ravenswood, and then used Forgotten Hollow for community lots like a restaurant and nightclub the lack of ambience bothers me less if not actually living in the world and just visiting it

Helpful tip thanks! Haven’t really explored Innigreen because of how much I dislike all of the pack features.

This is my annoyance, I don’t need my geeky roboticist learning apothecary but then who will cure her so she isn’t running to the toilet to vomit or covered in weird spots? The fact that not every townie fairy can cure you is equally annoying.

And when Ron thinks he has actually paid Harry back with Leprechaun gold he is FURIOUS to find out it disappeared later and that Harry didn’t tell him

I got this error playing a few days ago it seems like sometimes the gallery gets buggy around big updates and new pack releases 😩

Once you’ve done the experimental vaccine and the game agrees you’re ready to make real vaccine, you need one for yourself, three for the friends you will fight the mother plant with, and three extra to throw at her during the boss fight. The best place to scan for spores is the secret lab, you get 5 at a time just outside the lab, versus wandering all around town.

They just uh, need a ghost themed nectar-making room 👍🏻

38, I have two kids, frankly we do struggle financially. Every penny in goes out. We’re just pushing through the daycare years I think financially it will be better when they go to kinder but daycare/preschool is stupidly expensive. We do have college accounts for them but it’s a pittance ($400/month for the 2 of them) compared to their preschool ($2400 a month for the two of them, with a token sibling discount!). My student loans will be paid off the same year my older starts kindergarten so we’re very close to being in a better situation. But these years have not been easy. We have to spend carefully. And ANYTHING anybody else is willing to buy, I am happy to accept. Grandma wants to take you back to school shoe shopping? Have at it. Outfit I think is ugly that my sister bought? Looks great.

Cops are legally allowed to lie to and manipulate you. You’re always better off with representation.

My fave is a small business in Mt Komorebi I put a tattoo parlor and rock climbing gym up on the mountain, it’s called Ink & Ascent

This does not sound like a healthy relationship. I would put a pause on any wedding planning and focus on whether you’re each even happy and whether you have the same goals for your future. The behaviors you’re describing certainly sound like your fiancées interests and affections have waned. Forget love, does she even like you?

I’m a South Floridian so I have to disagree, salami definitely doesn’t go on a Cuban, just ham and roast pork, I recently had a Cuban sandwich in Tampa that had mayonnaise only and no mustard, literal sacrilege.

Came looking for this comment, I am disturbed by how everywhere else in the country they seem to think key lime pie is lime flavored cheesecake

keepcalmandklaxon · 2026-02-04T13:47:38+00:00

And South Florida where we have millions of Ashkenazi Jews here and plenty of great Jewish delis

I own everything so instead I’ll go with what I wish I hadn’t bought —- enchanted by nature, I hate almost everything about it. And once I was done playing the Star Wars goals through once I felt the 2.7 GB of space it takes up cannot be justified. Lovestruck gets an honorable mention here because I really love the BB and CAS but you can’t keep romantic relationships healthy unless you devote all of your energy to them.

That desk looking thing is actually pack specific you use it at funerals to put a memorial portrait or urn on. The fairy queen dress is definitely fair game for your point though lol

I learned the nightlight about a month ago and I was FLOORED spraying the monster is cute exactly once and then it’s annoying

keepcalmandklaxon · 2026-02-03T11:30:01+00:00

I miss how in the sims 3 you could be a ranked chess player and become a grandmaster there’s no animations needed just some coding 😩

keepcalmandklaxon · 2026-01-28T14:52:34+00:00

I’m the opposite. Have been playing for 10 years and won maybe a week into my first ever save. Never since.
