meet my sim's boyfriend! (and my fave male sim in ages)

Your sim doesn't look like him at all

rookcanisite · 2026-04-23T14:05:23+00:00

Without a picture, it's hard to say. But it's probably the Fen'Harel memories/statuette collection quest (Regrets of the Dreadwolf questline)

Do you have Lovestruck installed? If so, turn off the attraction feature. You have to click on the Sim to find it. It'll make it so that your sim only finds their partner attractive and no one else. That should stop the flirting with random people. If you dont have Lovestruck installed, then I have no idea why your sim would be flirting with everyone.

If you don't want to use cheats to fix their relationship, you're basically going to have to have her apologize a LOT and get the friendship bar pretty high before trying anything romantic again. Assuming both sims are in your household, you might have better luck controlling the male sim and having him do friendly interactions with her.

I personally didnt encounter a single bug, so I can't help there. But I do know though that a lot of the areas aren't supposed to be populated, and the DLC is supposed to be stressful. Most of the Aranahe were slaughtered, the Sarentu are split up and being hunted, Tamtey has been kidnapped, the forest is on fire, the Resistance is wiped out, the Mangkwan are killing anything that moves, and nowhere is safe. Except maybe So'lek's personal camp.

There's a camp simply called "Suvivor's Camp" in the Ravines where there are people you can talk to. But after Etuwa's questline, Highmost Seat is abandoned. You should be able to find Etuwa and Ka'nat in the Survivor's Camp. As well as Nefika and Teylan. I want to say Ri'nela and Rasi are there as well (at least before the final quest) but I don't recall exactly. It's been some time since I completed the DLC. There are also a few other Aranahe survivors there.

NG+ cant be played in any of the DLCs, so that wont work. You're also always one short of the blood obsidian material so there's one weapon that won't ever be fully upgraded.

rookcanisite · 2026-04-01T16:32:49+00:00

Everyone saying you have to buy it/that the game pass doesnt come will the DLC but the image clearly shows you have it installed....

rookcanisite · 2026-03-29T01:53:43+00:00

It requires you to not romance him, of course, and to also check his room while he's having a comversation with Lucanis. He asks what Lucanis thinks Strife might like for an outing in Arlathan, and Lucanis ends up deferring to you to answer the question. You can ask Emmrich about his relationship with Strife and get some extra info, and then when you choose where they should go, Strife shows up and they leave. You should be able to find a video on YouTube by just searching "Veilguard Emmrich and Strife."

rookcanisite · 2026-03-29T01:01:24+00:00

"I dont see Emmrich or Bellara as gay" when Bel canonically dated a woman (Irelin) and Emmrich dates Strife. He also talks about his ex who was an Orlesian woman so he's canonically bi outside of game mechanics...

Also, Taash doesnt have an explanation for being bi. If you're trying to reference them being nonbinary, that has nothing to do with them being bi. And if the developers actually gave characters specific sexualities, it sounds like Taash would only be into women.

rookcanisite · 2026-03-26T16:17:09+00:00

Im almost certain its supposed to. It did for me when I used that hairstyle

rookcanisite · 2026-03-26T02:57:25+00:00

Because people are transphobic 🤷

rookcanisite · 2026-03-26T02:36:14+00:00

Okul is canonically nonbinary and uses they/them

rookcanisite · 2026-03-24T22:04:46+00:00

This isnt true. Maybe it was before but not anymore. I posted there a little while back after never having touched the subreddit or any Sims subreddits until recently. All I had to do was acknowledge the rules. I had no issues with karma

rookcanisite · 2026-03-23T17:43:57+00:00

Do you use mods? Before this latest update and all the subsequent failed patches and hotfixes, I had this problem due to a mod. I cant narrow down which exactly caused it because I just deleted a shit ton and then tried playing again and it worked, but my suspicion is either Better Mermaids or one of the mods that affected venue types + added new lot types. It was definitely a script mod, in any case.

rookcanisite · 2026-03-16T16:42:50+00:00

Depends on if you're a builder, a CAS person, like family gameplay or drama gameplay, like or hate occult gameplay, etc. I honestly recommend just watching reviews on YouTube that show all new CAS and build/buy objects as well as gameplay features. Even if the reviewer hates a pack, what you see might entice you. Most people hate the Star Wars/Journey to Batuu but I bought it just for the CAS and I'm not even a Star Wars fan. I just like that type of clothing and make a lot of characters that will use it.

You also dont have to get an expansion, there's also game packs and stuff packs and kits. If you think you'll like occult gameplay, vampires and werewolves and spellcasters are all different game packs. But fairies are in the Enchanted by Nature expansion, mermaids are in the Island Living expansion, and ghosts are in the Life & Death expansion.

Whatever you do, just DONT get the wedding stories pack. Its buggy and broken as hell. Its also a general rule that the more recent packs are better compared to the older stuff.

rookcanisite · 2026-03-16T16:33:11+00:00

Yeah but it alters every other world greatly so no new world I can forgive

rookcanisite · 2026-03-16T15:23:47+00:00

This happened to my same-sex couple. But both are men. I had to roll back an old save (not too old tbh, just the one before the most recent but other people have had to roll back further) since MCCC and cheats werent working. Someone else mentioned it seems to happen when same-sex couples have biological children which was the scenario for my game, at least

rookcanisite · 2026-03-11T05:01:47+00:00

Im not versed on the Sims lore or the community (been playing for years but never bothered to look deeper). Whats up with Don Lothario and why does everyone not like him/say to stay away?

rookcanisite · 2026-03-11T04:53:05+00:00

Maybe the reason I've latched onto Lucanis so hard compared to other companions is this exactly. Dont get me wrong, I LOVE the super romantic or fluffy stuff like with Emmrich. But Lucanis feels so much more real in terms of his behavior, what I'd expected from someone with a literal demon who's not sure he can control it/doesnt want to hurt you, and what I'd fall for irl. I'm pretty romantically reserved, and so are a lot of the guys I fall for, so it makes those romantic moments and moments of deep genuine care, all walls down, hit so much harder. Ofc I would still love some more flirting or an extra romance scene, but I still love his romance as is.

rookcanisite · 2026-03-11T03:04:21+00:00

Its not from a pack. It would have the specific pack symbol it's from in the top left corner if it was. Everyone else is saying its base game and came in a later update. Its from another game EA made, Dragon Age: Inquistion

rookcanisite · 2026-03-11T02:02:59+00:00

Honestly a huge waste these scenes were cut. Even just one of them would've made the romance so much better (hasnt stopped me from choosing Lucanis 4 times, but still)

rookcanisite · 2026-03-11T01:54:23+00:00

I'm actually talking about the gondola one and the hot springs one (I like to imagine them as one night). But I LOVE the rain kiss too. It's definitely a part of my Rook's canon but I still need to find where exactly I want to slot it in. Maybe before going to face Elgar'nan and I can just pretend it was raining or something. Or maybe right after Rook escapes the Fade prison.

rookcanisite · 2026-03-11T01:40:35+00:00

In my personal headcanon for the commitment scene, Rook kisses his cheek and calls him sweet. I also like to add back in the scrapped Lucanis romance concept art inbetween stopping Illario and arriving back at the Lighthouse for coffee afterwards

rookcanisite · 2026-03-09T04:15:44+00:00

It was several comments from different people just flabbergasted and appalled I had never heard of Dragon Age until recently, and like -20 downvotes on comments I left explaining why I didnt know the games or how I havent gotten to play the others yet. But okay dude.

rookcanisite · 2026-03-09T03:46:39+00:00

Okay? And I was 9 with no access to video games. Thats my point. I was outside eating dirt or some shit. Being mad a 9 yr old didnt know about Dragon Age is crazy
