Peony Drive 590 - a fully furnished lot for Oasis Springs (no CC)

With this build my birthday celebration is coming to a close and I hope you enjoyed the other houses I shared, but now onto the last one: This house is a mash-up of two mid-century house plans I found online. I originally did not plan on furnishing it, but as it turns out being sick motivated me enough to furnish this house. It was intended as a starter home, but keeping within a tight budget wasn't fun, so I didn't. The end result is a very cheerful and playtested home for your sims!

More info and interior shots + download link under the cut!

Peony Drive 590 is a 20x15 fully furnished lot placed in the Parched Prospect neighbourhood of Oasis Springs. It's perfect for either one sim or a couple. You could also fit a baby or an infant in there, but you'd have to add a room/floor for an older child. Peony Drive has a colourful interior that leans heavily into the mid-century (modern) style and also has a patio with a bar and a barbecue.

Uses items from the following packs: For Rent, Horse Ranch, Growing Together, High School Years, Cottage Living, Snowy Escape, Eco Lifestyle, Discover University, Island Living, Get Famous, Seasons, Cats and Dogs, City Living, Get Together, Get To Work, My Wedding Stories, Dreamhome Decorator, Strangerville, Jungle Adventure, Dine Out, Home Chef Hustle, Paranormal Stuff, Tiny Living, Backyard Stuff, Cool Kitchen Stuff, (Kits): Desert Luxe, Little Campers, Industriel Loft & Country Kitchen

Download: simfileshare | or up on the gallery: aeromantica

TOU: please don’t claim as your own or put behind paywalls etc. If you find any issues (wrong files, etc.) please let me know + tag me if you’ll use the house, I’d love to see it in your games.

Scooter Legacy 2020 - generations 1-9

ya know, I was gonna make individual posts about the old generations of this save, since they're coming here from their old home on dreamwidth, but I'm really lazy so we'll just go with the one. a primer post. why not.

for a bit of background, I started this save in the middle of the start of the pandemic, right after completing another legacy, and I blasted through this thing in like, 2 years? I had never felt so fuckin productive. let’s ignore the fact that stopped playing for 1.25 years after generation 8 though. okay.

to the shock of nobody, each colour-coded generation had some story that eventually just devolved into pure gameplay. listen when i tell you i'm a one trick fuckin pony, i mean it. here's what happened:

Generation 1: Percy Scooter and Sebastian Park. my founders. Percy was the sheltered only child of a rich old Chinese woman who hired Sebastian to be her butler and personal service worker. awkward enemies to lovers plot ensues. they had 2 kids: Ollie (who died as a child) and Josie.

fun fact: I was looking at my timeline and it makes perfect sense that Percy's mother, Francie Chen, would've been the younger sister of Chen Ruiyang (Lucky Legacy). they even had the same last name. so I made that canon. duh.

Generation 2: Josie Scooter and Matangi Silva. childhood friends. Mat left town to become a vet, and Josie tracked him down to continue their fledgling romance they had as teenagers. they also had a fuck ton of animals, one of which was the iconic Mayor Whiskers. they had 1 kid: Randy.

Generation 3: Randy Scooter and Collin Pix. Randy, Collin and Ripp Grunt from TS2 were roommates at a college that psychologically broke down students before selling them to aliens for Nefarious purposes. it was kind of a lot. they ran away to Sulani and had 3 kids: Willow, Xander and Landon.

Generation 4: Landon Scooter and Toro Katalunan. childhood friends that reunited as adults that tackled off the grid living together. their friendship and eventual romance persisted through awkward misunderstandings and island ghosts. they had two children: Kai and Sully.

Generation 5: Sully Scooter and Ori Delgado. Ori guided Sully through the jungle in the search of a cure for the genetic condition they were born with (I also brought this up during my flop reclaimed roots legacy). kissing ensued. they had three children: Luca, Brianna, and Damián.

side note: I also started a side story about the Strangerville mystery that coincides with this generation. this family went on to spawn Dakota Dinh, co-founder of the Lucky Legacy. it's all circular y'know?

Generation 6: Damián Scooter and Hari Rotan. I fucking hated this generation because it was Eco Lifestyle. I don't remember the story and I don't want to. they had two kids: Laila and Yasmin.

Generation 7: Laila Scooter and Kawahara Koichi. Laila, a giant fucking twat, goes to university and makes enemies with everyone except the anti-social weirdo that loves robotics. then they terrorised Evergreen Harbour together. they had one child: Xavier, who they sorta neglected ngl lmfao

Generation 8: Xavier Scooter and Fayrouz al-Dimashqi. my FAVOURITE! generation. Xavier, a traumatised individual, moves to San My and has his icy heart opened up by the warm and welcoming Fayrouz. unfortunately, he died before his time, leaving Fayrouz a widow. they had one child: Kaleb.

Generation 9: Kaleb Scooter and Natasha Deleon. Kaleb and his gf Jaesha, family vloggers, are pressured into a wedding for their viewers, which is being planned by Natasha, Kaleb's childhood friend. they run away together from Kaleb's livestreamed wedding. they had three kids: Aaron, Evan, and Naomi.

which leads us to where we are today, with Naomi and Taryn forming Generation 10, and Dexter about to launch Generation 11. let's see where this goes next!

hi k. i really wanna have fun w my sims again. i can spend literal hours in CAS but after that…nothing. any advice for developing OCs in game and starting a legacy? starting is always hardest for me, pls help 😭

hi anon bby! this is a great question, although idk if i can offer tht much help bc tbh, i be struggling w this all the time. however, here’s a couple tips tht always help me when i get bored/in a rut and want to play the game again:

1. Using In Game features

Is there an aspiration you’ve never played through? have you played through strangeville or completed the haunted house challenge with paranormal stuff (if you own those packs)? sometimes the easiest way to start for me is trying something in the game that i’ve never done before. a little while ago, i realized i never completely the Komerobi Sight-Seer aspiration, so i made a new sim and started to play through it. it was fun to do new things, and a reminder that theres lowkey so many little features that i be sleepin on. the more packs you have ofc theres more things to try, so keep tht in mind.

2. Using a challenge created by someone in the sims community

9 times out of 10, if i’m in a rut, i will start playing a rags to riches gameplay. it just has a gameplay that is always a litle chaotic, but entertaining and u can really make it turn out in so many different directions. using challenges that other simmers make can help widen ur horizions on different gameplay and can give you generations of challenges/aspirations/sims to explore. some off the top of my head are not so berry 1 or 2, globetrotter, postcard legacy, i’m a lover challenge, 100 baby, alphabet baby challenge.

fun fact: Zenya was originally a sim I made to play eco lifestyle rags to riches, and she’s become my main oc/story main character so, anything can happen!

3. Creating/Finding your perfect save file

i stall on starting gameplay bc i hate the default lots/townies a lot of the time, and thinking about starting over makes me lose motivation. ive taken time to create a couple save files w new lots, townies and sims of mine that make it a fun setting for any kind of gameplay i end up doing. add your fave lots, create your own lore for the neighborhood and the sims who live there, and make sure everything is playable and suits your personal style. if making your own from scratch is tew much work (bc trust me, it is), i also have used ratsave by @ratboysims and lemonade save by @helloavocadooo many times and enjoy them both! also if anyone has reccs for save files pls lmk!

4. Mods

idk if u use mods but i love gameplay mods!! whenever i get a new mod, i play around for a while and test out each feature of it. combining mods together and finding which ones enhance your gameplay is one way to get you engaged in playing again! mod recc list coming soon <33

I hope these tips help you or anyone else! if u need links for things lmk, im not at home rn but i will try to update as i go. if u need any help pls don’t hesitate to reach out!! and if anyone else has some tips they use, pls reply below! a lot of y’all have amazing gameplay and legacies that i admire sm so i’ll also take any advice!

#i will be making a list of all my fave mods soon #i am still in the process of making a resources page #and other useful info #so pls be patient as i get tht together #replies #sims stuff #resources #simblr help #long post

Sims 4 MLP Legacy Challenge!

Hello! I’m Jerry and I decided to make a legacy challenge based on My Little Pony. Why? Because I have an obsession and needed to bring it into my Sims game lol. I’ve been playing this challenge for a while now and I’ve been having fun so I thought I’d share it with the world!

Packs Needed:

Get to Work, Get Together, City Living, Get Famous, Cats and Dogs, Discover University, Eco Lifestyle, Snowy Escape, Spa Day, Parenthood, and Realm of Magic (SO sorry it’s so many but I did originally make this challenge for myself 😅)

Optional Packs: Nifty Knitting, Cottage Living, For Rent, Home Chef Hustle

General Notes:

I want to note that none of your heirs have to represent the ponies in color scheme and/or gender, though if you want to do that then go ahead!

I will be using their respective pronouns when describing each generation, however, your sims do not have to identify with them!

“We were meant to rule together, little sister.”

You’re a wise and regal sim who can see the potential in anyone, especially your students. There isn’t a single sim who dislikes you and everyone seems to not only look up to you, but go to you for advice.

Aspiration: Zen Guru

Traits: Bookworm, Family-oriented, Outgoing

Occupation: Education (administrator branch)

Rules: Celestia must be a spellcaster and you must also get her a phenix familiar. She must be the highest ranked spellcaster but you do not have to learn every spell as you’ll be doing that later in a different gen.

Celestia must complete her aspiration, become level 10 the education career, and master the charisma, wellness, and cooking skills.

“Sometimes we can worry about a thing so much, the fear can make us feel we're trapped in a nightmare.”

Unlike your mother, you were not seen as wise or regal. The friends you made growing up always wanted to see your mom and often talked about how amazing she is. Because of this, you became resentful of her, and wanted a way to escape the world your mom shines on.

Aspiration: Nerd Brain

Traits: Gloomy, Genius, Jealous

Occupation: Astronaut

Rules: Luna wants to escape from her mom so she must visit Sixam at least once. She must also only have close friendships with aliens.

Luna must complete her aspiration, reach level 10 in the astronaut career, and master the rocket science and logic skills.

“My love will give you strength.”

Even though your mother seemed obsessed with space and getting away from your grandmother, behind closed doors, you saw the love your parents shared and always wanted a love of your own. You love everything about love and can’t wait to meet someone to spend the rest of your life with.

Aspiration: Soulmate & Super Parent

Traits: Romantic, Cheerful, Family-oriented

Occupation: Babysitter

Rules: Cadance wants someone who shares the same passion for love as she does, so she must date/marry someone who also has the romantic trait. She must also have at least 3 children.

Cadance must complete her aspirations and master the parenting skill.

“We've learned that friendship isn't always easy, but there's no doubt it's worth fighting for!”

Growing up, you were always well cared for and shown so much love by your family. But you wanted to learn more about the magic that was bestowed upon you, and master all it’s elements. And just like your great-grandmother, you always wanted to become a teacher and teach others everything you know.

Aspiration: Spellcraft & Sorcery

Traits: Bookworm, Genius, Perfectionist

Occupation: Education (professor branch)

Rules: Of course we can’t forget about Spike! Give Twilight a dragon familiar. But what about Owlicious? Lets make it two familiars! Give her an owl as well. She must learn every spell in the book, but potion recipes are optional.

Twilight must complete her aspiration, reach level 10 in the education career, and master the logic and writing skills.

“I love to make you smile smile smile, yes I do!”

Your mother was all about studying, research, magic, all things that are totally and completely BORING. You just wanted to have fun, party, and spread as much cheer as humanly possible! Lets not forget about the food! The cakes, ice cream, fruits, sandwiches, chocolate.. is anyone else hungry?

Aspiration: Party Animal

Traits: Childish, Goofball, Glutton (You can make her a party animal if you have For Rent)

Occupation: Entertainer (comedian)

Rules: Pinkie Pie wants to be the greatest party sim around, so you have to host and get a gold medal in every social event. You must accept every invitation to go out unless you are already doing something.

Pinkie pie must complete her aspiration, and reach level 10 in the entertainer career. She must master the comedy, charisma, mischief, baking, dancing, and singing skills. What? Entertainment means skills.

“What I'm sayin' to you is the honest truth. Let go, and you'll be safe.”

While it seemed everyone in your family was enjoying the party life, you just wanted to be outside gardening. Planting trees, herbs, flowers, anything you could get you hands on. And then turning those plants into juice or even sweet treats is even better! I guess they had one thing in common.

Aspiration: Freelance Botanist

Traits: Outgoing, Loves Outdoors, Ambitious

Occupation: Gardener (optional)

Rules: Applejack doesn’t just want to make treats and drinks for herself, she wants to sell them. Every time the Flea Market comes into town, she must go there and sell all her goodies. She must also own at least 20 apple trees.

Applejack must complete her aspiration, and if you choose to be a gardener then she has to max it. She must master the gardening, baking, handiness, and juice fizzing skills.

If you own Home Chef Hustle, then you can use that selling table and you don’t have to go to the flea market every time.

“It needs to be about 20% cooler.”

Thanks to your parents, you spent a lot of time outdoors and from a young age and you’ve always been good at any sport you played. Basketball, soccer, you name it! But you want to be the most awesome sim around. So, why not try and become the greatest snowboarder, skier, mountain climber ever! Now that’s cool.

Aspiration: Extreme Sports Enthusiast

Traits: Loyal, Self-assured, Adventurous

Occupation: Athlete (professional athlete branch)

Rules: Rainbow Dash is cool and all but she’s got a bit of an ego. She must be disliked by at least 2 sims.

Rainbow Dash must complete her aspiration, and reach level 10 in the athletic career. She must master the fitness, snowboarding, skiing, and rock climbing skills.

“Look upon me, Equestria, for I am Rarity!”

Just because you’re the daughter of a famous sports sim, does not mean that you, too, have to be sporty. You want to be known of course, but not for being athletic. For being FABULOUS! You’ve always been into fashion, design, things that are oh so shiny. You someday dream of opening your very own boutique to sell your beautiful designs.

Aspiration: World Famous Celebrity

Traits: Materialistic, Proper, Perfectionist

Occupation: Style Influencer (trend setter)

Rules: Rarity must become a 5 star celebrity and date/marry someone who is also a celebrity (the level of fame does not matter). She must own a fashion boutique and it has to have a 5 star rating. She must collect every crystal/gem.

Rarity must complete her aspiration, and reach level 10 in the style influencer career. She must master the acting, charisma, and photography skills. Knitting skill is optional.

“I'm just good with animals. It's my special gift, you know.”

*If you have Cottage Living then you must raise at least one cow, chicken, or llama and Fluttershy must befriend one bunny and one fox*

Your mother made it big, real big. And you’re happy for her, but being a star isn’t quite what you had in mind for your life. You just want to take care of animals, away from the spotlight. Any animal, big or small, you want to make sure they’re all fed and well taken care of.

Aspiration: Friend of the Animals

Traits: Loves Outdoors, Good, Paranoid

Occupation: Veterinarian

Rules: Where do you go when your pet gets sick? The vet of course! Fluttershy must open her own vet clinic and get it to 5 stars. She must only adopt strays and have at least 5 pets throughout her lifetime.

Fluttershy must complete her aspiration, and run a successful vet clinic. She must master the singing, pet training, and veterinarian skills.

“Make sense? Oh, what fun is there in making sense?”

Your entire family from the start has had too clean of a record. Why don’t we change that and add a little chaos. Discord is known as the black sheep of his family. He thinks everyone, especially his mother, are way too nice for their own good. What’s life without a little fun?

Aspiration: Public Enemy

Traits: Childish, Kleptomaniac, Mean

Occupation: Criminal (boss branch)

Rules: It’s time to kick things up a notch and have a little fun! Discord has a long line of magic in his blood, so he must become a spellcaster and master untamed magic. No one really likes him given his track record, but he does have one good friend.

He must unalive at least 3 sims using his spells, complete his aspiration, and reach level 10 in the criminal career.

If you do wish to continue after Discord, he can have a romantic relationship with his one friend, have a science baby, or he can just force a sim to love him 😅. I have a part two brewing in my brain and will release that version as soon as I finish it for all you lovely people.

Thank you for taking the time to read this and if you end up playing it, I would love to see all your screenshots! As I stated before, I have been playing this for a while and my pfp is actually my Pinkie Pie sim lol. I’ve been having a blast so hopefully you have fun too!

Happy Simming!

Also since a mutual asked and i think a lot of new people are getting into the sims here are some packs/mods/cc stuff i think is necessary based on my gameplay. i will try to include links to anything that needs them (i dont have torrent leaks so someone else can provide!). And also these are just my opinion haha feel free to add on! This will be long so its below cut

1: packs: this wont include all packs, anything not listed i gen havent really thought about enough to put in my list.

Necessary packs: seasons, get to work, get together, city living, cats and dogs, dine out, tiny living, parenthood (based on watching other simmers i dont own this)

Packs i think are fun but not necessary: eco lifestyle, werewolves, spa day, vampires, paranormal, nifty knitting, laundry day,

Packs i want to get but dont know much about: cottage living, snowy escape, dream home decorator, the wedding one, highschool one, toddler stuff, kids room, parenthood

Packs i have but i find to be meh: realm of magic, get famous (only slightly),

Packs i will never get willingly (meaning i would never pay for this full price): journey to batuu, strangerville, my first pet, vintage glamour, romantic garden, spooky stuff, luxury party

Kits: scam, but they do seem cool overall. desert luxe is a great build kit just for the curtains alone (i got this for free during a special time offer).

2: mods that i think are necessary

I dont play with a lot of mods so the only thing i'd highly recommend is MCCC (or mc command center): LINK

this mod allows you to control so many aspects/cheats in your game so much easier from allowing polyamory to inducing labor in your sim to aging people up, to editing sims in cas, this mod really can do anything and everything its a staple in the community!

one mod i wouldnt recommend (unless there was a recent update to it...) is the remove EA eyelashes mods as at least for me it gave me a lot of glitches with occult sims having no face at all! so i stopped using it

Other important mods that i dont use yet but a lot of people use and i will be using soon: stop werewolves from howling in cas (believe me its so fucking annoying), stop vampires growling in cas, stop spellcasters in cas (cant find the link to this) (you can also apparently use cheats on the clockspeed to get them to sto moving i think...)

Modthesims is a good resource for any mods you want to find! I also search reddit occasionally for recommendations. Plus id recommend to go on youtube and watch simmers who use a lot of mods for popular ones!

3: custom content how to

Custom content are things you add to the game such as clothing, furniture, makeup, etc!

There are a few websites you can get custom content (cc): the sims resource, tumblr (just type in sims 4 cc!),, and soon the sims 4 will be partnering with cursedforge for things so look out for that!

cc creators i love/have loved: pralinesims (i think they stopped making cc?), kijiko, grimcookies, bergdorfverse, twistedcat (for eyebrows), sheabuttyr (previously savvy!), candysims4, johnnysims, ridgecookies, spectacledchic (though i dont think they make cc anymore but i used to love their clothes esp in sims3. it just may not be updated anymore!), shakeproductions,

some important cc to get imo: kijiko's 3D eyelashes (recommend the accessories one and the perma ones so you can wear glasses), a default skin overlay (i use ediurnes'), a default eyecolor set,

Maxis or realistic cc? -> some people love sims to be hyper realistic so there is a lot of cc in that category. Maxis match means custom content that matches the sort of cartoony style of the sims 4. I prefer maxis match hair and stuff but i do use realistic cc for clothes/skin/eye color/eyelashes. You can do whatever you want.

Make sure you always download the MESH: some cc is a recolor of another cc! So if you download the recolor without the original mesh it wont work. esp on tumblr at least or on download sites they should specify if its a recolor or not and link the mesh!

if you have questions you can send me an ask and if imissed anything or you have your own recommendations pls add onto the post in rb!

#cup.sims4 #again feel free to add on i wrote this and didnt edit at all

Stardew-Valley-esque Sims 4 Storyline Idea

I came up with this idea a while back for a sim who leaves their life to move to Henford-on-Bagley and repossess their great great grandfather’s farm and rebuild it with the help of surrounding farmer friends. Then I got into playing Stardew Valley and I stumbled upon this old prompt I wrote. I realized how similar the prompt sounded to the premise of Stardew Valley so I took it up a notch to integrate the two more. It mainly focuses on Cottage Living, with some influence from Eco Lifestyle. So here goes the family description (I wanted a young adult named Zuri but it could be any sim):

“150 years ago, Zuri’s great great grandfather moved to Henford-on-Bagley. They made a beautiful farm they wanted to pass on to their children for many generations. But Zuri’s grandfather never really had any love for the farm especially when his father died from overexertion. So when his wife died in a fire leaving him with their young son, the farm was abandoned and her grandfather turned to industrialism instead. Zuri’s father made it big in industrialism and their family became rich. But after being surrounded by smog for most of her life and feeling so out of place in her city, Zuri wanted a different path. On a whim, she left her home and moved to Henford-on-Bagley to reclaim her great great grandfather’s farm. The house and garden need a little fixing up but there’s nothing she can’t do once she’s set her mind to it. But should she take up such a task alone? Her former lifestyle didn’t leave room for positive friendships so Zuri grew up relying on only herself. Her kind and handy neighbor Stu and his green thumb brother Wart offered to help her out. Maybe it’s time she let positive friends in and finally feel like she belongs somewhere.”

That’s the general idea. This can really be taken in a lot of different directions. Before I get into the town stuff, I just wanted to mention that her family can also be taken in an interesting direction. I created my household to actually have her grandfather (and perhaps grandmother) still alive and living with her father’s family. They can live in perhaps San Myshuno or Evergreen Harbor. I wanted to have her father involved in industrialist activities and her mom to be an influential neighbor in charge of clubs and voting groups. I also created her brother who’s wants to be a politician. But the question is, will he take after his father and grandfather before him or forge his own path to creating a better world by being a good leader? I’m not a huge fan of having a “main character” sim who’s a teen or older and having their parents just... exist. Everyone deserves a juicy story and a personality outside of just being parents. Maybe her grandfather can have a change of heart when he visits his grandchild who rebuilds the farm and finds a new love for the place he grew up in. Maybe her mother or father can have some sort of rivalry or frenemy relationship with another family. I have her family in a San Myshuno apartment and the other family who lives in the apartment across from them are their rivals. The possibilities are endless!

But back to the town-play. The key is really making all sorts of sims who contribute to making a community. You can even make events and holidays that imitate Stardew Valley events (Flower Dance anyone?). I mentioned Stu and Wart above and I’ll probably flesh out their story even more, but the general idea I liked is perhaps Stu is a woodworker and Wart is a gardener (like oversized crops or something). And maybe they have a wood and flower/seeds shop they run. Something along those lines. You can make some long-time residents and some new families. Maybe several single people you can pair up. Maybe one family sells chicken coops and barns (like Robin from SV). The list goes on!

Well that’s all for the idea of a Sims 4 Stardew Valley mashup. I hope you have fun with this idea!

Something you want in the game: Open neighborhoods, difficulty settings, consequences, improved sickness and a randomize aspiration button in CAS. My top one though, ABILITY TO MAKE THE FIRST SIM IN CAS AN OCCULT. So many times I've made the perfect sim and then forgot its the starter sim and I can't make it an occult without mccc. (Also thank you @sharooonia for so many good ideas here)

What colour is your plumbob right now: Green/Yellow

I'd love to see this done by @kevinandthesims @pixeledwings@im-vewokie and @aliengirl Have fun!

Hi! So, one of my favorite pastimes is creating homes of favorite fanfics in the Sims 4. So, I present the Briar-Dream-Sam house in the Sims 4!

A lot of the build was my own interpretation, but I also added some touches from info from the epilogue of Oxeye Daisy and, of course, Scream Eureka. In one paragraph of the Epilogue, George talks about how Sam's home was extremely minimalist, with only the bare necessities. This inspired me to make the living room, kitchen, and bedroom have only light decoration (despite my urge to clutter askcnsak).

For Briar's room, I went a bit further in terms of decor since I belive, although Sam isn't an amazing parent, he would splurge a bit on giving some minimum decorations for Briar's room.

Then, the basement. I used Dream's description of the room in Chapter 3 (???) where he talks about the mirror and bed. I included a toilet because I'm not a monster, but I didn't put a shower since I think Sam would just shower him once a week instead of giving him his own shower.

I only used three packs because I wanted to make it easily downloadable without losing vibes. You could possibly download this without Get to Work and Eco Lifestyle since the Get to Work stuff is just the basement (to match the prisoner vibes) and the Eco Lifestyle furniture is the wind turbines/solar panels and the furnace upstairs (to match the Minecraft Redstone universe vibes). However, Cats and Dogs is a must for this build since it's the entire outside + interior.

Of course, this is all just my own interpretation, and I'd be delighted to hear your input so I can make it closer to the vision of the story. I will be now playing out the Briar-Dream-Sam household for fun, but I can always edit the build after the fact.

Anyway, thank you again for making such a beautiful story! It's been a bit since I've read a story with such an inspirational setting. I look forward to the continuing story in Scream Eureka in the future.

Sincerely,

Reina

THSI IS SO FUN!!!! It lines up with a lot of my imagination as well which is so funny i love when that happens

The carpet in briars room :( the fireplace :(

I'm honestly really bummed about the new Sims 4 expansion pack, Horse Ranch. It's not really an expansion packs worth of content. If this was a game pack I would be hyped, but this seems like the same amount of content we got in Werewolfes or Realm of Magic, but for twice the price. And why is it western themed? They already did that with Strangerville, I was really hoping that they'd go for more of an equestrian, 1800s or midieval/fairytale theme, since they don't really have that, and I think it would work well with the horse theme. I tthink they could instead have gone back and updated the Strangerville pack, if they wanted more western items.

I'm also a but bummed that this wasn't part of the Cottage Living pack, I think that's really where horses shoul be, I don't think they deserve their own pack, atleast not with as little gameplay content this one seems to have. Especially since the also added foals, and baby goats, that for some reason don't seem to be able to age up. It seems like they just stay foals/babies their entire life...? And honestly, the only new item (other than horse stuff) I noticed was the nectar maker, which while it may be fun I also find a little pointless since they already adde the juice makers in Eco Lifestyle. The only thing that seems to be different about them is the animation, and the name of the drink they produce, but the drink will (pribably) still have the same effet on the sims regardless of the name. Don't get me wrong, I do think it's a really fun addition, it's just a little dissapointing that that seemed to be the only new item that adds to gameplay.

There was also a cool line dance thing going on, but we already got dancing in Get Together, so it didn't really add anything new, just another animation. And while animations are fun, The Sims 4 is a game, and I dont really want to pay $36 for a bunch of animation (which is really all this pack seems to be)

Honestly, the whole pack seems a little unfinished to me, and this does also make me concerned about what the lot situation is going to be. In the trailer there seemed to be a lot of debug buildings, and especially with the lot situation in Growing Together, I'm scared theres going to be very few lots you can actually interract with. And while on the topic of lots, there seemed to be only one lot where you could actually train your horse. It seemed to be the same lot where competitions are going to be held. I might be wrong, you might be able to buy the equipment and place it in whatever lot your like, but thats just the impression I got.

There was also mention of Native American representation in one of the articles, which I'm honestly quite exited about, I think more representation is great. It seemed like they were going to add items inspired by Native American tribes or something, I did, however, not notice any of this in the trailer wich I honestly find a bit odd and annoying (there might have been, and I just missed it, but personally i didn't really notice anything). I think it would have been a nice thing to show in the trailer, and the fact that it wasn't, and was rather just mentioned in an article leads me to belive that it might not be a lot or be a big part of the pack.

I love horses, and I was a little exited when I heard the next pac was going to be horses, but I was scared that it was going to end up being... well... this. Nothing. This just feels like a game pack, or like 1/3rd of an expansion pack. And I think we all know that theyre probably not going to go back and add more cnotent to it after it's been released, so it's probably never really going to be worth it.

I will hold out a teeny bit of hope for when it comes out though, or atlest until youtubers start uploading pre-release videoes, because there might be something there that they just (for some reason) didn't show in the trailer that makes the pack worth it, but right now it doesn't really seem like it.

Hello dearest!

🤍 Do you have a favorite sim created by you?

I often times focus on my most recent creations, but the sim that I've created as my next Sewell spouse is absolutely my favorite in a long while. I spent a lot of time trying to get her characteristics to match her appearance so that everything about her made sense and told a story for me. Very excited to show her off here soon!!

👜 What in-game career would you choose if you were a sim?

Hmm! This is a bit hard because I feel like to answer I should know what each career actually entails? But I don't play many of them! I think I'm going to go with the Civil Designer career from Eco Lifestyle, because it's closest to what I'm trying to do in real life (Urban Planning) and I'm currently job searching in it so it's pretty much my dream job right now! I like the idea of working to make your community a better place for the people that live there!

🍮 Favorite thing to do in sims?

This is a little hard because I do like doing different things and go through phases. I love building and there is something so so satisfying about it, but I'm also coming off a huge building project so I'm a little burnt out on it an really in the mood for gameplay. This isn't really a sims thing necessarily, but I think my favorite thing may be taking pictures? There's just something so satisfying about capturing my hard work (gameplay or build) in an aesthetically pleasing shot. It's also allowed me to see the game in a completely different way (thank u sims 3 camera i love u) and really deepened my appreciation for the little details of the game.

Thank you for the ask dear, it's lovely to have my mind off stuff a bit thinking about fun sims things!

Want to send me another ask?

I don't expect people to particularly want these, but they're fun to share, lol. A few more notes on the NSB:

- They have been in three saves. I moved from a basic save to simlicy's save in gen 2, and from that to a new save in 3 due to a bug/corruption of some sort. As such, several characters' existences make no chronological sense!

- They have also been in five worlds. Though it's unposted, I started Mindy and Red in Willow Creek just before Eco Lifestyle launched, earning a bit of money and working on skills and careers. (Red actually died to a Murphy bed at this time, and was brought back by Mindy's plea!) It's when EL launched that I moved them to Evergreen Harbor and started posting. Then Windenburg, then Newcrest, then Britechester, and now San Sequoia.

- I didn't explicitly plan on a Servo, but Solar had robotics skill from college, it fit with the whole "always busy in the lab" blurb, and I just kinda worked towards it on a whim. I'm very happy with the results. Galatea's a gem, and I love the campy, silly aspects of the series, like Servos.

- Violet is literally identical to Lani, as far as I can tell. But I remember checking with MCCC and seeing it was definitely Floyd she was pregnant by, (didn't realize she was when I moved her out) so... just wild RNG or a bug! Either way, I'm rolling with it.

Taylor Swift Eras Legacy Challenge

This challenge is inspired by my love of Taylor Swift. While each generation’s requirements are inspired by themes found in her albums, they are not meant to be a reflection of what I think of Queen Taylor. I have not play-tested, so please let me know if there are any problems! I know I’m not the only one to make a challenge like this, but I’m hoping mine is not too similar to anyone else’s. Any overlap is completely unintentional.

General rules:

For each generation, complete the required aspiration, career, and skills.

The aesthetic and colors for each generation are not required, but I think they make it more fun!

Each generation can begin with starter funds, or 0 simoleons if you want to make it more challenging. If you have multiple generations living together, you can keep the household funds from each generation in the family.

Play on normal or long lifespan

If you get a self-discovery trait pop-up, you may accept additional traits, but you can't change existing traits.

Legacy challenges are about having fun! If changing any of the requirements will make your gameplay more fun, go right ahead!

If you post your gameplay anywhere, feel free to tag it with #tseraslegacy

Generation 2: Fearless

You had loving parents who raised you to believe that you could do anything, so you’re literally reaching for the stars.

Whenever you’re not taking in beautiful art at a museum or good food at a restaurant, you’re making music at home.

As an adult, you are quickly obsessed with the celebrity lifestyle, and become known for your amazing parties. People flock to you, and you have a large group of friends.

You have a strong sense of right and wrong, so you become a judge to bring people to justice (sometimes through mischievous means).

Generation 9: Evermore

Growing up in such a big household, you were always trying to find some peace and quiet. You are most comfortable on your own, outside with your animals. You’ve designed your life so that you rarely have to interact with strangers in-person, so you grow and collect most of your food on your farm. You make and sell arts and crafts online, so you don’t need to interact with other sims outside your family.

Aesthetic/Colors: Cottagecore, Orange/Blue/Cream
