Hello Again! (update Under The Cut)

Hello again! (update under the cut)

I haven’t posted much in the last few months (although I have been enjoying everyones’ content).  I hadn’t intended to go on hiatus but life just got in the way.  I had no time to play or create new content and truthfully I was feeling lackluster about the game but with the exciting news about Seasons and a bit more free time, I’ll be posting more.  Thanks to everyone for sticking with me! 

RULES: It’s not just our Brooding Sims who have the option to ‘Talk About Feelings’; we can also talk about our feelings too!  Look deep into yourself and ponder on the thoughts which motivate you to play the game we all love. Then tag at least 5 people on your friends list to help them explore their feelings too. I was tagged by the lovely @annabellee25​.  I tag @budgie2budgie​, @anotherplumbob​, @kyranyx​, @paper-lioness​, @jenba, & @mwgaybachelor.

Answers under the cut...

The questions are as follows:

1. The boss of EA is in front of you asking for one statement about The Sims before he goes away and makes TS5. What do you say to him?

Please take your time developing TS5 and create a fully-formed game that takes inspiration from the best features of the past games: open world, CASt, more content, more building tools, more worlds, deeper gameplay, etc.  I know it may be a tall order… but be motivated to create the best game possible, listen and value long-time players’ ideas and suggestions, give the developers carte blanche to unleash their creativity, and invest in the future of this game instead of being driven solely by profit (although I actually think these changes would result in higher profits).

2. Do your Sims know you as their Sim God or are you the invisible deity to them? Well I am kind of omniscient and omnipotent in my game, at least when there’s no game bugs throwing me for a loop.  But I like to let my sims have some autonomy too; it results in some spontaneous moments that are very entertaining.

3. How do you see yourself connected to your Sims? Do those of you who say you love them, really mean this? How deep is your game? It always surprises me how attached I get to my sims and how much affection I feel towards them.

4. What’s your Sims Secret? Is there something going on in your game that none of your screenshots will ever tell us? WHO IS LOCKED IN YOUR BASEMENT???? What are those secret Sims doing behind closed doors? Don’t worry – no poor sims are locked in the basement or trapped in a pool. My sim secret is that I use the motherlode cheat for every single sim I play.

5. Can we learn anything from our Sims to take away for our real lives? And/or can you give us an example of how The Sims has influenced you outside of gaming. 

Playing the sims introduced me to the sims community, which encouraged me to come out of my private shell and start a simblr to interact with other simmers.  It reminded me how important it is to have a creative outlet.  I also learned how to use Photoshop as a result of creating my blog.

Send this to ten other bloggers you think are wonderful. Keep the game going! ❤️

Thanks for brightening my day with your sweet message!  Right back at you too!  🤗

Please could you also upload your sims and lots tray files on SFS? I love their look and the background you wrote up for them. Looking to populate my game with your sims and lots

Hi, I’m so happy that you like my builds and sims!  The tray files for all the builds I’ve shared are available for download at SFS (the links are on the download posts).  My two most recent sims (Shiva and Soledad) are also on SFS.  I will work on putting the tray files for my other sims on SFS when I get a chance (and I’ll add the links to the original post).  Let me know if you have a favorite so I can get to that one first.  Thanks for your message and your patience!

*Hugs you real tight* Would you please send this to the first 10 people in your dash? Make sure someone gets a hug today and stay safe.

Thanks for always sending nice messages like these to me!  I’m sending lots of hugs your way too! 🤗

Luna, Nayeli, and Simone went on a day trip to San Myshuno to take in the many sights, although Luna spent most of the day browsing the extensive occult section in her favorite Spice District bookstore.
