I loved sims 2. It was for me hands down, the best version. You had a lot in your base game and the DLC had good content for the price.
Also you had a ton on really cool fanmade stuff, even i made some myself (which was really easy) and the end i had so much stuff for this game that the loading took age.
Sims 4 is really not good, you need a shit-ton of money to buy even the basics stuff, what every sims game had without packs. I can't get over the fact that you have to buy a pack so you can have 2 hot tub/ jacuzzi. In the other games you always had it in the basic game.
Or to get some hair that doesn't look terrible.
For the animal pack you only get dogs and cats where in the other games you got much more.
It is only money making…
It is so buggy, maybe i am just nip-picking, but my sims often just stand there and do absolutly nothing even if i told them what to do. Or they just stop something even if there is nothing in the quere of the do list.
Sometimes some think like 'go to bed' is stuck in the to do quere, i can't click it away and they stop doing thinks in the middle of doing it because of the 'go to bed' think.
Why do i need origins for playing this game? I don't want that.

>>8889I always have shitty, awful Sims in bad circumstances and trying to rise to the top from absolute rock bottom.
My favorite challenge was the runaway teen challenge in Sims 3 but I took it a bit further. I would get my teen Sim pregnant (through mods) then kill off the baby dad. Then I would move her to an absolutely barren lot and set her savings to 0. With the klepto trait I would go to neighbours houses and steal stuff to either sell or use. Otherwise I would dumpster dive and get a crappy part time job. Neither of which you can do when your sim goes into 2nd trimester which makes things tougher. Couple that with getting pregnant continuously, having to pay baby sitters, etc…it's a REALLY fucked up but fun challenge. I actually had a hugely successful legacy this way where the house grew with the family.
Unfortunately it's not really feasible with 4.

-Better graphics
-Better house building tools (though no create-a-style sadly)
-Will work smoothly even on potato-est of the computers due to laptop mode
-Sims are more intelligent when it comes to routing, multiple sims are able to participate in a conversation
-CAS is better than Sims 3 in my opinion but it lacks color wheel
I actively play Sims 4 , bought base game but have pirated every single expansion, stuff pack and update and it still kinda feels like a barren game.
I think I'm gonna start a legacy in Sims 2 so I can compare what exactly am I missing from 4.

>had some cool objects
>beautiful soundtrack
sims 2
>sims have a cartoony look
>no real variation with body shapes
>face editing is pretty advanced tho
>you also get the ''body shop'' program to make your own clothes and genetics
>great expansion packs, most of them are worth the money
>you get 3 neighborhoods in the base game with pre-made neighbors that have backstories and stuff
>you can make your own neighborhood from scratch which is pretty awesome
>graphics are rather poor and sometimes glitchy (the base game is quite old to be fair)
>lots of cheats which make the game really fun
>you can create your own community lots such as restaurants and pools!
sims 3
>improved graphics
>the sims themselves look less cartoony and a bit more realistic
>base game hair, skin and clothes are ugly as sin
>new create a style tool which allows you to give customize anything (objects, hair, clothes etc) with new colors and patterns
>downloadable content is great though
>really great expansion packs too
>you only get one neighborhood (iirc) with the base game, which sucks
>amazing open world concept; your sim can explore the whole town without loading screens, you can go anywhere you want
>the sims have more personality than before, you can give them zodiac signs, choose favorite color and meal and change their voice
>your adult sim can has 5 personality traits and a life-time goal (becoming really rich, certain careers, family etc)
>loading screens last f o r e v e r
>the game size is massive due to the open world concept and may crash often
>some expansion packs lag awfully (island paradise for example)
>''rabbit holes'' are lots in the towns your sims go to for work or school, like the police station or the restaurant, for example. you can actually see the building/destination but can't go inside.

>going back to the sims 2 cartoon look of the characters
>create a sim mode is fantastic, you can drag on the face and body to change (like 3d modelling)
>you can customize body shapes however you want by dragging
>your sims are not restricted to gender, males can wear female clothing for example
>you can choose a (pretty vague) aspiration and three lackluster personality traits
>personality traits are extremely superficial and predictable (romantic, evil, outgoing…), not nearly as good as the sims 3; there are also very few options
>you can change voices and the way they walk
>zodiac signs were removed for some reason
>the create a style tool from the sims 3 was also removed, so you're stuck with the base game colors
>build mode is impressive, you have a lot of freedom
>amazing downloadable content
>new ''emotions'' interface, your sim can feel around 14 different emotions that affect their behavior (sad, happy, flirty, angry etc)
>new deaths although it is very hard to kill your sims
>you get three neighborhoods with the base game; all sims from any neighborhood can visit each other which is really cool
>no open world concept. you can not go anywhere you want anymore. lots of loading screens, too
>the towns look ridiculously cartoony and the designs are super lazy
>you get almost no lots at all…seriously, you get like 3-4 empty lots in every town and you can not add new ones like you could in ts2/3
>sims 3 had schools and workplaces in the town, sims 4 does not
>boring, cookie-cutter careers, military and politics were removed.
>new skills (video gaming, gourmet cooking, mischief etc)
>cheating isn't as easy
>your pregnant sims constantly have bladder failure for some reason
>multitasking was added, your sims can now do up to 3 things at once (eating while talking or watching TV)
>the base game alone can cost you up to 40 USD! Expansion packs are the same price. Do not buy it full price. I got it on sale for half of the price.
>ts4 is generally a rip off, you get very litte in the base game and even less in expansions for a ridiculous price
get ts3 or even ts2, ditch ts4. it's not worth it.

>>8914I played it but I don't remember much. Though what I do remember how even though it was a Sims 3 spin-off, it had a superior CAS and your sims didn't look pudding-faced.
Major problem I had with sims 3 was how CAS was shit and every sims you made looked doughy and weird. I had to download a shitton of mods, sliders and skins to make them looks decent.
Even then, all the other townies looked like shit so I had to spend a lot of time making human looking sims in CAS and getting rid of premade pudding mess.

The xpacs didn't feel like needless filler (the pets one for instance was so robust - having horses was amazing) and there was just so much to do and so many ways to play. Sims 4 looks better and plays more efficiently but it feels like the base game and every successive xpac are unfinished. Hell, the base game WAS unfinished to the point where they had to add pools and toddlers later.
To each their own I guess but 4 is where I stopped playing the series.

>>8936Think you need to do "testingcheats on"
then
You can modify Sims' relationships by using the somewhat long modifyrelationship yoursimfirst yoursimlast targetsimfirst targetsimlast x relationshiptype.
Relationshiptype is either LTR_Friendship_main or LTR_Romance_Main.
X is the percentage of the bar, either full, half, or half into the red (negative numbers). While there are many different relationship names, these are simply combinations of varying amounts of friendship/romance (either positive or negative).
For example:
modifyrelationship Bella Goth Mortimer Goth 100 LTR_Friendship_main - Bella and Mortimer are now best friends
modifyrelationship Bella Goth Mortimer Goth 100 LTR_Romance_main - They're now soulmates if they have a high friendship level as well
above is from
http://www.carls-sims-4-guide.com/cheats.phpThe cheats for the relationships are crap in sims 4, it's easier to install MC command centre and reduce the relationship decay setting, or you can add traits to your sim that reduce their relationship decay or build relationships faster.
Beloved
Everyone remembers a Beloved Sim! Their relationships never fade. enter "traits.equip_trait Legendary"
Memorable
Relationships decay more slowly.
enter "traits.equip_trait Memorable"
Domestic
Domestic Sims will see their familial relationships grow stronger faster. enter "traits.equip_trait FamilySim"
Gregarious
Gregarious Sims build friendly relationships faster.

One of the things that bothers me the most is that sims doesn’t have memories in the sims 4, maybe a bit silly but in sims 2 I felt I could get more “immersed” with the stories I was creating. Like if my sim cheats on their partner in S4 they barely give a shit, they’re just sad for a day or two. Tho I prefer how advanced they are with customization to really flesh out personalities, but they remain superficial shells when you really break it down.

I've been playing Sims 4 on and off for 2 years and have been pretty disappointed with it overall. I think the game looks great, but the gameplay is so shallow that you basically have to rely on your imagination completely to get anything out of it.
Even with some of the latest expansions like City Living, Jungle Adventure, and Pets, which certainly added stuff to do, the Sims themselves are so bland that the game still feels boring. Everyone is hyped for Seasons, but it's just going to be the same thing. What good does it do to have all this new shit when the Sims all act the same, are never affected by anything long term, etc?
I've had to use mods just to make things interesting, but that can be a pain in the ass when they conflict, so sometimes it's not even worth the effort.

So I was bored and downloaded this murder mod (called extreme violence or something) made a sim that’s a cop and has a torture basement (lmao) saw a random sim walk by who I invented in.

I still think that 2, fully modded and with all xpacs is the best of the lot. A decade of my life spent with that shit, lol. The community is so crabby though and has always been kind of snobbish and weird. I was always super supportive of my favorite creators but was otherwise a pretty quiet person on forums and whatnot because of it.
I suck at art in every way possible, but I wanted a specific custom sim made for 2 and was even willing to pay well for one, back when the game was maybe a year or two old. I always took pains to be super polite about it, but I was told I was being ‘rude’ and that I should ‘teach myself’ and it was just like fuck me, I’ve been trying to teach myself and they look like shit! Even doing the photo wrap on mesh technique, it always looked like a hot mess. It was so weird because if I had the ability I’d be cranking out custom sims for people left and right, especially if I were being compensated for my time. I remember getting absolutely dragged on MTS for asking and I just felt so bad.
tbh I’d still pay someone to do it, like seriously just name your price haha but I’ve basically given up. I wonder if it was because at the time, the creators were all older people and maybe didn’t get it? It seems comparable to me to someone commissioning an artist on tumblr or whatever but I guess not. I know this sounds kind of bitchy now but I swear to god I was always super nice when asking about this, I never sent out blanket messages to every creator in the book or anything like that, it’s just something that still makes me crabby lol.

I use that as a base for any new sims save I'm starting.
Also if you haven't, you should definitely get MC Command Center (mod). Gives you a lot of randomizing tools which can help craft stories. You can fully tweak the settings which include things like random townie marriages, children, what sex the marriages can be, what specs the kids can have, abduction frequency, etc etc etc. A lot. Since Sims 4 is really really bad about not having story progression, eventually all your town residents will have died out and if you have City Living you will have 200 homeless Asian sims that are mostly single parents… this mod fixes that by creating families and aging them properly, moving them into available housing, etc.

That being said, I really am ready for TS5. I feel like TS4 was bad from the beginning and can’t be saved, even with popular expansions like Seasons being here now. It simply lacks the soul of the franchise and was poorly executed from the beginning. I just want them to move on now and release a better game. The idea still is so amazing, it’s just the game itself that sucks.

>>101955It depends on what you like, here are some suggestions:
>Make a sim and try to max all their skills and earn enough money to buy the most beautiful lot>Try one of the challenges posted online (100 baby challenge, history challenge, rags to riches, whatever)>Try to make your dream home (this is the best part of the sims for me)>Invite friends and take turns making the ugliest sims you can>Turn on sim autonomy and just watch them do whatever, and take screenshots. Works best if you have lots of sims on a lot because there's always something crazy going on (this has become my favorite way of playing)>Come up with a story and try to play it out in the sims (warning, if you get really creative you'll just end up disappointed by the limitations of the game), for example a farmer sim who inherited their grandparents' property and can only make money off of the land (yeah I ripped that from harvest moon), or a witch who must never leave her home, or make a sim try to make as many friends as they can and then try to make them all hate you in various ways>Try to make a beautiful neighborhood (if you are playing sims 3 download the Create a World program)>Extra fun points if you try to make a themed neighborhood, like a medieval or elf or gothic neighborhood.And when you take some funny screenshots post them here!!

>>106006Gamescom had a billion SW things announced today. Seems Disney is pushing it really hard but to think the Star Wars Land tie-in (Batuu is where their SW park is "Set in") would be the fucking SIMS is killing me.
Too bad we didn't get a game pack that the community can do something with. What pack would you have liked anons?
I personally wanted a pack with a distinct world that isn't North American looking. Maybe Spain or Japan could be cool. I feel like gameplay is never actually that different across packs (you craft stuff for the vast majority of the content or you go to rabbitholes) so I'd mostly like a new and pretty world to play in.
Gameplay-wise I'd probably want something that adds nuance to sim interactions and adds those small tidbits we loved from Sims 2. Romance obviously gets really samey quickly, as do inter-generational interactions in families. Something that adds a lot more social gameplay would help craft stories imo. Same goes for drama. A pack centered around your sims' relationships and strives to stir shit up would be my ideal pack.
I don't want more arts/crafts, I don't want new careers because they're all boring and the same, I don't want tedious shit like having to generate electricity for my house.

>>106461For me it'll come down to the items that come with the pack, both build and debug. I do use mods but I have a high standard for what looks good. I want props to blend in with the professional level art the Sims team puts into the game so I still prefer EA-made build items over cc unless the type of furniture I need does not exist outside of cc (comfortable but stylish looking couches being something I downloaded online, for instance).
Gameplay-wise even a pack I thematically enjoy usually has lackluster features (what the FUCK was realm of magic ugh)so well-made meshes and textures are what I'm usually looking for in a pack at this point. Give me good setpieces and worlds and I'll craft a plot with some gameplay mods like Slice of Life and Meaningful Stories. I really do hope someday they'll release an expansion pack specifically for story crafters that includes a lot of the features I currently maintain like 5 mods to experience.

No. 107492
>>106979As the other anon said, things are too "perfect". It's the little things, sims 2 had this whole thing where they made sure each premade family comes with their own drama and the starting day is a different pre-built scenario which is a really nice touch. My sims 2 families always involved at least a couple instances where people were slapping the shit out of each other and doing things to piss each other off. Sims 4 does not really have that.
I actually get a lot of use out of the negative traits in Sims 4. I use the negative character values from parenthood (especially the insensitive one), evil, jealous, clumsy, etc. They often end up creating friction or at least sims react to things in an amusing way. Highly recommend utilizing the more negative traits!
I dont agree with the buildmode swatch issue that's been raised though. I think plenty of items match and it's kinda fun to try and find things that share swatches. I like that there are tons of different colors that aren't the same because I don't like using the same colors and furniture for my builds. I also don't build monochrome so using two wood colors and some wild accents are pretty par for the course in my houses. I imagine if you're really fond of white and black it will probably get annoying though, as there are a lot of varying versions of b/w in the game that definitely do not match.

>>107492i TOTALLY agree about the negative traits in sims 4 being more entertaining. the most interesting character i have ever played was this glamorous, snobby old lady with the dastardly trait and the criminal career. it was fun trying to throw successful dinner parties while also pickpocketing and getting into fights with the guests.
but usually, i skip the gameplay part of sims altogether. i was the kind of kid who would spend hours arranging a dollhouse but would quit as soon as it was time to play with the dolls, and i guess this is just an advanced version of that lol.
…which is why i would KILL for the swatches in sims 4. if y'all couldn't tell i use a lot of black and white, and as you pointed out it's really frustrating when the shades don't match up right. and if you want to match wood colors, you can't separate it from the other parts– ex; if a room is dark brown and red, and the dark brown bedframe has a lime green bedspread, you're just fucked.

I do wonder why they didn't make the blacks and whites match. The sort of builder that uses those colors probably wants it all to match perfectly, that's just how monochrome folks roll. It's a bad move from EA.

I've themed each world with a different architectural style so it's all coherent but I haven't yet found an identity for Newcrest. It used to be my Japan but now that the new pack arrived I need to find a new vibe for Newcrest. What do you guys think? I refuse to use the lilsimsie style BLUE FAMILY HOME shit, I want it all to be distinct.
I've got:
>Willow Creek
Creole/bayou, tons of community lots like jazz bars and bakeries.
>Britechester
Georgian, mostly townhouses and some matching architecture for each campus.
>Strangerville
Queen Anne
>Windenburg
Mostly Tudors, the rural looking side is overgrown mansions and cottages and the more "downtown" parts are townhouses. The island is Scottish, think those stone houses with grass roofs.
>Oasis Springs
Spanish/Mediterranean, with the red terra cotta roof. There also is a huge steampunk "amusement park", a waterprark, and a pseudo vegas strip that's surrounded by midcentury homes.
>Forgotten Hollow
Gothic colored gigantic victorians. There is also a graveyard for my funerals with a hidden underground bar where Vlad's house once sat.
>Brindleton Bay
Top left area is San Francisco, top right is all farmland and a shabby looking fisherman's lodge. The island houses the museum of my legacy family, that way I get to store all their cool stuff without having to build annoying mansions. I just take my heirs there each gen to dump all the achievements.
The dock area is all repurposed factories turned into trendy community lots and there is an Ancient Roman looking bathhouse where that massive lounge used to be. It's a weird place but I love that bathhouse. It reminds me of a Cheesecake Factory but a spa lol
>Evergreen Harbor
Scandinavian eco homes. They all have grass roofs though. The big community centers are made to look like repurposed factories.
>Magnolia Promenade
more creole
>Del Sol
Just LA tbh, lots of community lots because I think it looks more novel to visit rather than to live in. There is more than one Starbucks here.
>San Myshuno
Again almost entirely community lots, I use the apartments if I'm gonna live there.
>Granite Falls
Overgrown chalets. There is a gigantic abandoned train thing in the 50x50 national part lot and a campgrounds obv.
>Selvadorada
I kept the native style here, just used more fleshed out lots that look more lived in. Also added a lavish museum to replace the weird shack looking bullshit they had in it originally.
>Sulani
I turned this entire place into community lots in its native style. Nobody lives here. Mostly wedding venues, beaches, restaurants.
>Glimmerbrook
Just upgraded the fairtytale homes with actually nice looking ones.
>Mt. Komorebi
I put mostly Machiya homes in this world, though there are some lots reserved for onsen and the 50x50's are a "japanese village" and an art/yoga center that's quite sprawling. Thinking of adding some Japanese style apartments instead of just single family housing.

>>131661>female tismPlumbella actually has autism so it checks out
They’re both insufferable along with lilsimmie and the scrote they form a quartet with. I can’t even remember his channel name because his content is so boring.
I had to unsubscribe from plumbella not explicitly because of her incessant troon pandering leaking into her channel content, but how she went full tra “jk rowling bad!!1” despite being a massive potterfag. And she was completely silent on every other sjw issue at the time too (spring/summer last year.) It’s so fucking grifty. The worst of her actual videos has to be when she plays Urbz. I understand that she had no prior experience with the game, but holy shit she was worse than a child. While playing she kept messing up to the point where I think she got tired of trying. It’s one of the best console and overall Sims installments, yet she managed to make it uninteresting.
Looking at it now I see she’s removed the continuation to this video where she had to get taught by chat how to move her fucking character past the bouncer in diamond heights.
Urbz is more than one of the best console installments, and I think it holds up when paired with a lot of ts4 packs. Despite not being as big of a world or have as much opportunities as a base game with EPs, the Urbz world is very expansive for its small size. And we actually get to play while they’re at work kek

I actually prefer Deligracy’s play style compared to the rest of these people. The content is boring but she’s more laid back or reserved than the others. Nitpick but her mouth gets really annoying to look at. The lisp doesn’t bother me as much as the skull/face structure. It’s like Jarvis Johnson. Vidrel this simtuber plagued my feed for a few weeks and I got bored of the recycled content so I unsubbed. I’d noticed is that every video she has an unflattering ReadyToGlare tier cheap wig and nobody in the comments says anything about it. I think plumbella is the best looking “big time” simtuber. And I don’t mean this to be shallow, it’s merely an observation that most of the bigger sims channels that show their faces are average at best.
Prescripted, faceless sims youtubers overall make better content imo. With the exception of the likes of Pixelade who is the troom troom of sims. He makes so much redundant content for no fucking reason. Every tweet and forum post gets its own video.

I kind of respect Deligracy only because she had the balls to collab with a great cc creator named grimcookies and the items in the collection are very good. Most sims youtubers praise or attempt to embrace the modding community but most of their gameplay says otherwise, they are mainly EA simps to the T with very few exceptions (ex. Carl Sims guide). Lilsimsie is like the Drew Golden of Sims youtube. She builds the same houses or usually gimmicky videos based on builds she made for her Twitch audience, she never curses or goes out of line because she wants to maintain herself as a general family-friendly channel. Her “I’m not as talented” shit gets on my nerves because stop building the same house where a white LC user would live in 50 years suburban blue and build something out of the box.

Like there was no real transformation, you just make an over exaggerated sim and then undo everything to make it pretty and with nicer clothes again.
I wish it was more creative, like they had to make the ugly deathfat sim, use a mod that categorizes sims as “disgusting and unattractively ugly” and try to bring the sim to the beauty standards of their town. Otherwise this challenge is never really a challenge at all. Or at least I wish it was more about trying to work with the features the sim was generated with, and working around them instead of bulldozing them completely. Like an actual challenge.

Thread is absolutely dead but EA finally added bunk beds to the game in the recent updaye, only for it to just be reused beds from dlc packs. Didn’t even make new beds with different designs/patterns, holy fuck, and of course the dumbass community becomes easily placated from such laziness and shortcuts. Embarrassing
No. 133479
>>133427>>133435A) one of the bed frames is apparently from parenthood
B) the beds don't always work if you put stuff below it but apparently they're going to patch this later
Honestly, I feel like this will be another one of those 'well the modders fixed it so we won't bother' things, or it will come several years later
C) I've seen some people say that the trait improvements for neat/perfectionist (not sure which) sims are taken from the dust kit which also let you to 'polish to perfection', but even without that it seems like a lousy update
On the subject of Sims 5 - seeing as it's likely to be online/multiplayer, I honestly can't see it taking the stuff that made Sims 3/2 good and the stuff that made Sims 4 good to mash it together. It seems likely that we will stay with the building mode (as that seems to be the only thing that made Sims 4 good), but the gameplay will be as bland, unless they somehow utilise playing with other players which means that the 'offline' (assuming we get that) version would be shit.
Plus interested to see how they'd work around the large portion of people who play the game just for building

>>138787Sims 4 toddlers are adorable but so fucking stressful that they completely derail the game. If you want them to have a decent childhood on a shorter lifespan you have to basically build a baby containment center. Sims 2 toddlers cried in their beds all day but they were made of tougher stuff.
Sims 4 toddlers leave their beds to ask for a story and get stuck.
Also sims 2 toddlers slept in pet beds and snuggled the animals.

Bonny nonnies can I please get some recommendations for unique looking sims for download?
Alpha, MM, fantasy, I just want sims for my game that are actually varied or have some character. Love kamiiri's sims based on real people because at least they aren't all eternal insta-baddie teens and Ken dolls. Recommendations for presets and sliders other than the luumia and obscurus or the endless big lips would also be so appreciated

>>149255>Was the Sims community always this degenYes, as far back as TS1. The difference now is that sex mods have reached a stage of refinement where they aren't laughably crude. It also doesn't help that TS4 is lacking in gameplay compared to TS2 and TS3.

I’m looking to buy a new laptop that the sims 4 and all its expansions will run smoothly on, also I want to get into using mods as I never have before (always had shit 4gb laptops)
recommendations please ladies? I’m not in a position to be spending 500 - 1200 On a whim

>>162678I bought a laptop with these specs for 1200€ last week and it runs sims 4 perfectly. I have the pirated version with all packs and I can run it with reshade now, and I also have 20gb of mods/cc.
This laptop is definitely a bit of an overkill for sims 4 though, but hey if you want something decent this is my recommendation.

An anon on /ot/ wanted to see the fairytale sims world I made so I thought I'd share it here.
I used the world Moon Valley which is downloadable from the sims3 store and bulldozed most buildings except for the ones I couldn't be bothered making again (the equestrian centre and junkyard).
The little market you see is something I curate myself with some of the townies, they all grow fruits and vegetables from home and sell it at their stalls for other townies to buy. I made a big bath house which you can see in the bottom right, but I'm not overly happy with the columns.
I populated my little town with all sorts of supernaturals, vampires, fairies, werewolves, witches, you name it. It does lag sometimes but I use mods to keep it running smoothly.
No. 177732
>>177727No problem at all! I'm in love with this little world and love to share it around. Supernatural is my favourite too. I wish I had more photos but it's currently winter and things don't look nearly as good.
I hope this inspires some of your sim creations
nonnie! I love to see what other people do when they get creative on sims.

>>177724That bath house really resembles a Hungarian spa I went to once. I don't get why you're not pleased with it, looks great.
>>174124EA already killed the Sims franchise as far as I'm concerned. I didn't have the desire to buy Sims 4 at all. It's not a quick death like that of Sim City, but a slow painful one.
No. 177736
>>177733I actually modelled it after the hungarian spa I went to myself! Good to know it's come through in the visuals.
I'm also on the same boat with having no interest in sims 4 whatsoever. Something about the lack of open world really killed it for me, that's a big part of why I love 3 to begin with.

>>181746I've been playing Sims 2 pretty much since release, so at this point in time I'm just trying to make the game more chaotic challenging for me, which includes
>no cheats, obviously>modding the household limit out and keep every single sim until they die in some way or another (my record currently lies at 19 sims at once)>more dangerous fires and diseases>harder homework and jobs>higher bills>no perma plat status for granting life wishes>fight anyone anytime regardless of current relationship>potential death by childbirth (still looking for a mod that could kill your sim at dangerous jobs if you chose the wrong chance card)>slower skilling>blind needs, if I'm feeling up to itI've had CJs Edukashun Iz Gud mod for a while, which made it impossible for sims to get to the higher levels of any career unless they went to college, but I hate playing college, so I took that out and replaced it with job stoppers. If anyone has mods that might the game worse, please link them, I'm always on the lookout for more, since even like that the game could be a little harder, still lol.

>>181746my ts4 trophy doesn't let me know after 15th generation, and I don't use mods in general so I'm just vaguely guessing that my legacy play may be at 20th right now (I need to keep track better..)
Picrel is one of the households I managed to take photo of, I made the purple girl married to Bess (Eco Lifestyle NPC)
Alien breeding is also very fun imo. The toddle twins are grown up and moved out by nowHow many did you get keep your first save?
I solved my ugly breeding sims problem by using cheat cas.fulleditmode as they become teenagers. The manual CAS for my sims to stay attractive and not wearing ugly clothes have been a major chore for me, otherwise it's still pretty fun! I'm actually having trouble to have one of the household to stay alive long enough to unlock a hidden career item in Eco Lifestyle

>>181746I never play with families of sims, I don't make them age or have children, I don't ever find that fun. I just make up my own sims to live in the city, make their houses and play with them for a bit until I get bored then I move onto the next sim. I got bored of everything very quickly until one day I decided to make jojo characters as sims and watch them doing their random shit, that was so fun. They can just do whatever and I'll be laughing hysterically

>>181774Oh yeah, I can find raising children can be tedious and there's not much to do when they're at school all the time. And the toddlers really keep my adult sims so busy to have fun on their own (this is so true in real life lol). I still find children sims are absolutely adorable, I especially love the animation when they interact with a pet. Maxis' animation is definitely top-tier despite of gameplay's degradation tbh.

>every world was populated by fat reheaded asians with latin nameskek.
