Book Genre Legacy Challenge

Hello! I've been playing the Sims for what feels like forever at this point, and the only way I ever manage to keep myself invested in the game is by playing legacy challenges. I kinda wanted to try my hand at making my own legacy challenge, so here it is!

The Sims 4 Book Genre Legacy Challenge!

Basic Rules: - Reach the end of each aspiration. - Reach level ten of career unless specified otherwise. - Cheats are allowed but try not to use them (only because they make gameplay less fun). - Reach level 10 of each set of skills given for each generation - Heir can be any gender unless specified.

I did my best to make this as Base Game compatible as possible, if you’re missing some packs and I didn’t offer an alternative just pick your own or skip it.

Gen 1: Classics

Colours: Blue and Brown Traits: Family Oriented, Dog Lover (BG: Neat), Art Lover Aspiration: Lord or Lady of the Knits (BG: Successful Lineage) Career: Start as Business but quit once you have kids Skills: Knitting and Parenting

You’ve been called an old soul all your life. Everyone always laughed at you for your simplistic dreams. You’ve always wanted a simple life. White picket fence, perfect partner, two kids, and a dog, maybe even a rocking chair to knit on. Who cares if you don’t have big career plans, at least you’ve got a family.

Rules: - Must have at least two kids - Quit your job once you have your kids. - Have a good relationship with all children. - Adopt a dog once your kids are toddlers. - Only have one romantic relationship and marry them before you’re an adult.

Gen 2: Western

Colours: Brown and White Traits: Bro, Rancher (BG: Hates Children), Loner Aspiration: Championship Rider (BG: Bodybuilder) Career: Athlete or no Job (Horse Ranch) Skills: Fitness, Horse Riding, and Guitar

You grew up in a picture perfect home. You were adored by your parents and lived the perfect life. But not everything was as great as it seemed. You learnt very quickly how mean children could be, as you were the youngest of the family and constantly picked on by your sibling(s). You moved out as soon as your were able to and bought the biggest piece of land you could find. Anything to get away from other people.

Rules: - Have a bad relationship with your sibling(s) - Move out as soon as you’re a young adult onto a plot of land - Buy a horse (if you have HR) as soon as you can - Have an unexpected child (one only) - Don’t move in with your partner until you know you’re having a child - Have a high relationship with partner and parents, no one else

Gen 3: Science Fiction

Colours: White and Green Traits: Geek, Socially Awkward (BG: Clumsy), Genius Aspiration: Computer Whiz Career: Astronaut Skills: Programming, Rocket Science, and Robotics

As an only child, you were taught to entertain yourself. Your parents had never enjoyed company, and hadn’t payed much attention to you growing up. You kept yourself busy, ignoring their silly western ideals and searching for a more captivating life in the stars. You found a passion in technology, and found numbers far easier to understand than people. Maybe there’s life out there better than the people you��ve met on earth.

Rules: - Build a rocket ship - Travel to Sixam and bring an alien back to earth with you (if you have GTW) - Marry the alien and have a kid - Never make friends - Don’t talk to your parents after you move out

Gen 4: Comedy

Colours: Green and Yellow Traits: Goofball, Self Absorbed (BG: Noncommittal), Outgoing Aspiration: Joke Star Career: Entertainer (Comedian Branch) Skills: Comedy and Charisma

Your parents always had their head in the stars, and being half alien you felt like an outcast as a child. You hated how hard it was to make friends and only wanted to be like everyone else. Once you reached a teenager however, you realized that if you tried hard enough and got everyone to like you, no one would even realize you were a little odd.

Rules: - Make a bunch of friends as a teenager, but never stay close with any of them - Host house parties once a week - Have at least three kids and have a good relationship with them all - Sever all connection to your alien parent after you move out

Gen 5: Contemporary

Colours: Yellow and Pink Traits: Ambitious, Snob, Materialistic Aspiration: Fabulously Wealthy Career: Doctor (BG: Business) Skills: Logic and Painting

You grew up in a very loud family. Everyone was always laughing and there were parties almost every week. As a child you loved it, but as you got older you realized there were more important things in life than laughter. You decided to take a different route than the rest of your family. To you, there was nothing more important than success, other than money of course.

Rules: - Marry someone in the same career field as you. - Have a large house and hire a maid/butler as soon as you can afford it. - While your children are young, hire a nanny for them instead of sending them to daycare. - Have an over-the-top wedding. - Decorate your house with your own art (no one else makes art that is good enough for you)

Gen 6: Romance

Colours: Pink and Red Traits: Romantic, Good, Music Lover Aspiration: Soulmate Career: Entertainer (Actor Branch) or Acting (GF) Skills: Charisma, Acting, Piano or Violin

As a kid, you always felt like the outcast of the family. Your sibling(s) were super smart and seemed likely to follow in your parents successful footsteps, while you were always a little behind, more interested in making friends than success. You feel in love with romantic stories and tv shows at a young age, as everything always seemed to work out for the main characters. Your parents were a little cold and you barely saw them be affectionate with each other. As you got older you decided that the world needed a little more love.

Rules: - Must be a woman - Date as many sims as you want but don’t woohoo until married - Have at least two close friends and one best friend - Adopt a dog - Have a music room in your house

Gen 7: Horror

Colours: Red and Black Occult option: Vampire Traits: Gloomy, Perfectionist. Unflirty (BG: Hot-Headed) Aspiration: Villainous Valentine Career: Secret Agent (Villain Branch) Skills: Vampire Lore, Pipe organ or Piano, Mischief

Your mom drove you crazy growing up. Her insanely positive outlook on life made you laugh. You believed she’d just gotten lucky in her love life, there’s no way anyone else could achieve that sort of perfect romance. All that being said, you do love her with all your heart. But as the only official black sheep of the family, you made it your goal to make your family the complete opposite of the one you grew up in, staring with the worst career you could think of.

Rules: - Have a good relationship with your parents and invite them over for weekly dinners - Adopt a black cat -Partner should match your values - Don’t settle down until aspiration is complete

Gen 8: Fantasy

Colours: Black and Purple Traits: Loves Outdoors, Jealous, Creative Aspiration: Freelance Botanist Career: Gardener (BG: No Job) Skills: Gardening, Flower Arranging, Baking

You loved the whimsicalness of your grandmother when you were a child. If you had the choice you would’ve had her raise you instead of your own parents. Growing up in such a dark environment made you want to fill your own house colours. The one thing you and your parent do have in common however, is your twisted outlook on love, as you are constantly convinced that your partner is cheating on you.

Rules: - Have a good relationship with your grandmother - Have at least three partners before you find the one, and be the one to break up with them all - Have a greenhouse - Don’t have any kids until your grandmother dies - Have a rocky relationship with your spouse

Gen 9: Mystery

Colours: Purple and Grey Traits: Paranoid (BG: Loner), Loyal, Slob Aspiration: Master Mixologist Career: Detective (BG: Secret Agent, Diamond Agent Branch) Skills: Mixology, Photography, Charisma

You had a pretty normal childhood, aside from the occasional screaming match between your parents. Unfortunately you inherited one of your parents tendency for paranoia, and constantly think somethings out to get you. Instead of taking it out on your partner however, you take it out on the criminals in town, and the occasional drink. And hey you never know, maybe some criminals can be trusted.

Rules: - Have at least one drink a night after work (either at a bar or at home) - Marry someone in the criminal career branch (can be cheated) - Move houses at least three times (best to never stay in one place too long) - Never hire a repair service, fix everything yourself

Gen 10: Memoir

Colours: Grey and Blue Traits: Perfectionist, Ambitious, High Maintenance (BG: Creative) Aspiration: Best-selling Author Career: Writer (Author Branch) Skills: Writing

Growing up you loved your parents, but something about how much they drank always rubbed you the wrong way. You always liked things to be set up in specific ways and you hated the fact that your parents always left a mess. You spent a lot of time reading as your parents were too preoccupied to take much care of you. One day you find a bunch of dusty old books that appear to be about the older generations of your family, but it’s hard to make out. Annoyed by the lack of information about your family lineage, you decide you should be the one to write it all down.

Rules: - Have a complicated relationship with your parents - Publish 10 books, each named after a different generation. - Read 9 books prior to starting your writing (as research). - Have a library in your home

I think that's everything! I hope you guys enjoy this challenge! Please tag me in any posts about this challenge or post it with the hashtag #bookgenrelegacy

Happy Simming!

what video games do the ro's/would the ro's play . would teddy fw dark souls. would mal fw league.

Hmm, let me think! Fun question.

Mal: Periodically gets into random gacha games, amasses a hoard of jpgs, never touches them again. Swears up and down they don't spend money on microtransactions, despite their absurd amount of resources. If they played league of legends they'd probably get banned swiftly for inting, as they'd realise it's a surefire way to troll annoying teammates.

Teddie: Can't really play input heavy games because of pain issues. would vibe with slow-paced turn-based strategy I think. Stuff that isn't time sensitive and he can do methodically. Watches Kay play things.

Kay: RPGs RPGs RPGs. Give her the final fantasy. Give her the mass effect. Give her the baldur's gate. Plays co-op with Teddie.

CG: Played party games a lot when she was younger. The kind of ones you mostly only play when you have at least four people. Hasn't touched a console in a long time and wouldn't be seen dead mobile gaming.

Wil: Kind of embarassingly out of touch with video games. They played mario once when they were eight. Stares blankly at you when you ask them which mario. You receive the sinking feeling that they are genuinely not aware that there is more than one.

(it was paper mario)

Alistair: Bashfully admits that he does like to game now and then. It transpires that he is ridiculously good at various management/colony building style games like Dwarf Fortress and Rimworld. Dabbles in old RTS games. Hasn't played Nethack in a while but would pick it up like he never left if he played it again.

Spends actual hours making cool houses in the Sims. As a teenager he once did the thing where you take away the pool ladder to drown a sim, felt unbelievably guilty, never did that again.

Almost never plays multiplayer anything cause he gets anxious.

Greek Gods Challange

NOTE: List is the same with CheetahAlyssa's greek gods challange except for the birth order. I changed the order a bit to make it more similar to the birth order of greek gods and I completed the generation number to 12.

Note from CheetahAlyssa

If you don't have a pack needed for one of the generations, just do it to the best of your ability!

You don't have to stick too closely to the rules, if you want to change some to make the experience better then go ahead.

I KNOW that there are a lot of siblings and children/parents on here, but if I were to stick that closely to actual Greek mythology it would be a mess. I want it to just focus on one god at a time. Plus, do you see how many children each god has? Hell no.

Rules (Not Obligatory)

Once you have created your sim, move them into an empty lot. To make the challenge more difficult, start on a 50x50 lot or larger. Depending on how difficult you want to make it, you must cheat your money down to §1800 or §0. You may start in any season and in any world you like. Build them a house as you get the funds to do so. No money cheats are allowed. You may use custom content to achieve a greek feel. You may use mods as long as it doesn’t give you an unfair playing advantage. For fun, you can try and make their home based on what their colors & symbols are. Make sure that your gameplay is set to normal.

I will put a disclaimer here that this is a work of fiction. Please do not take this challenge as fact! This challenge is meant to be fun and interesting. Feel free to change this challenge to suit your needs or gameplay!

This list of 12 generations is inspired from 12 greek gods of mount Olympus. As you can see some gods aren't included e.g. Hades or Hestia, but you can add them after the generations complete or you can add them as spouses or you can add extra generations as you go with the game. Hestia for example is the godess of hearth, home, architecture, domesticity, family & state and she's the firstborn so you can start your save with Hestia or add her as a sibling or spouse for any generation, it's up to you to decide.

Rules (Not Obligatory)

Start by creating your founder in Create-A-Sim (CAS). There you must start out creating the very embodiment of Artemis. Your founder can be a young adult or adult. You can name him/her whatever you want. Since you are playing as an embodiment of each god, you do not have to name them the God’s name. You can make them look like whatever you want, though it is more fun to try and make them resemble the god that they are portraying. There are a ton of pictures of the Greek Gods on the internet if you want to draw from that. But, it is believed that each god had a certain look to them. For instance, Zeus is usually portrayed as being an older strong male with white hair and a beard. For added fun you can give each generation a specific color and symbols.

I’m playing your save file and I appreciate how realistic it is! Out of curiosity I have few questions. What made you want to create the save other that the fact that it’s based off where you live? Also Love it but a lot of your sims aren’t the best of people and do bad things. Why is that? English is not my first language sorry for mistakes ♥️

here’s a very long answer! there’s a lot of good saves out there, but there weren’t any i could find that were realistic, centered around crime, regular lower income families, builds that were old and dingy etc. basically i just wanted a hood ass save file that felt familiar to my actual life/friends/hometown. it was just gonna be a personal save but i joined simblr to share my builds and people started asking me if i’d ever make a save file, since i already was i decided to share it w everyone. if i never joined simblr i don’t think i’d finish the 3 portsim worlds as fast as i did/keep expanding to other worlds but seeing people enjoy something i’ve created and adding their own spin to it makes me so :’) it makes things a lot more fulfilling/enjoyable <3

when it comes to my sims and their stories, real people aren’t 1 dimensional. to me, doing (certain) bad things or making wrong decisions ≠ being a “bad” person, it’s more complex/circumstantial than that. i guess i just want my sims to feel like real people or at least as real as sims can feel while having shitty ts4 ai. most of them aren’t meant to be seen as good/bad honestly, it’s subjective to each person that plays the save. obviously some things are dramatized to keep it interesting but overall i want things to be grounded in reality.

examples:

- charles boyce is my most extreme/one of my only inherently bad characters, i wanted him to have generic serial killer vibes. he got brain washed and manipulated into a cult which resulted in him becoming a paranoid evil person that killed his wife, jerrod banks’ mom, other pregnant women, and eventually even his own daughter for the mother plant (which canonically doesn’t exist) that the cult worships because 1. he was already misogynistic and had shitty morals and 2. he’s been brainwashed into believing that’s what he has to do to have eternal life.

- jerrod banks. he doesn’t know his mom was murdered, he and his dad (the police chief) just think she left without any explanation when jerrod was a teenager. that caused him to have trust issues and be emotionally closed off to avoid being hurt by people. his dad tried to be there for him, but he was also dealing with his wife leaving him to be a single dad, a demanding job, and a son that acted out. that’s a lot for one person. jerrod also grew up in portsim. being young and impressionable living in a place full of poverty, surrounded by the glorification of drugs, guns/violence etc causes it’s own issues. fast forward a few years later, jerrod and his childhood best friend deven have big plans. they both love creating music and want more out of life so they form a rap duo hoping to be successful and get out of portsim. but when a local record label takes interest in/only wants to sign deven… shit gets real. deven takes the deal, and jerrod is upset. the person he loved and trusted the most betrayed him, that’s his biggest fear. jerrod ends up shooting deven, which is obviously a terrible thing to do. but it wasn’t for no reason. i wouldn’t want to personally be around someone like jerrod, but i also wouldn’t view him the same way i would see someone like charles boyce.

#asks #i hope this doesn’t come off as me being pretentious or fake deep #i am just super passionate about this LMAO

I've got a few sapphic NV suggestions, though most of them also have male LI options.

First though I wanna reemphasize that Studio Élan and both of the Arcade Spirits games are really good.

a new life.: modern angsty af, 1 female LI, for when you need a good cathartic cry sesh.

Arcadia Fallen: high fantasy, 2 male, 2 female, and 1 enby LIs, if you're familiar with The Owl House, Luz's VA voices the enby LI.

The Cosmic Wheel Sisterhood: sci fi/urban fantasy vibes, there's like... one dude in the game and he's friend shaped.

Flowers Trilogy (Le volume sur printemps, Le volume sur ete, Le volume sur hiver, in that order): occult/psychological horror/boarding school setting, you play as different characters and have different LIs in each game but you're at an all girls school so... game was originally in Japanese and has English subs.

Heaven Will Be Mine: sci fi, 3 female LIs (only two for each playthrough, however, as you play one of them), to quote the creator "select one of three terribly behaved girls to fight and/or make out with each other in their struggle for the fate of space."

I Was A Teenage Exocolonist: sci fi, 5 male, 4 female, and 1 enby LIs w/ some poly options, game's 80% VN, 10% deck building, and 10% world exploration. My highest recommended game period.

Love Notes: urban fantasy/horror, 2 male and 3 female LIs, extra point for this game because you can choose to play as a guy or girl and while you can romance all five LIs as either, the actual romances play out differently, which is kind of a staple with this studio.

Royal Order: high fantasy, 2 male and 1 female LIs, if you're familiar with Fire Emblem: Three Houses you can tell this game was inspired by it at least a little bit.

A Summer's End - Hong Kong 1986: modern (or well, real world in 1986), 1 female LI, just a nice journey of self discovery and love.

When The Night Comes: supernatural, 4 male, 1 female, 1 enby LIs w/ some poly options, was aimed more towards the BL side but is worth if either the female or enby LI appeals to you.

And some up and coming VNs to look out for:

Arcadia Fallen II: the sequel to the aforementioned Arcadia Fallen. LI information unconfirmed on the store page so far so numbers.

Call Me Under: urban fantasy/horror (but in an underwater city?), 2 male, 2 female, 1 enby and 1 genderfluid (he/they) LIs, same studio as When The Night Comes and has Robbie Daymond (The Curious Cat, Dorian Storm) voicing one of the LI characters.

Drops of Death: modern/murder mystery, 2 male and 2 female LIs, one of them is the killer... but it changes every game so you might end up romancing them and then it's up to you if you can forgive or not.

Our Life: Now & Forever: modern, 1 female LI, the sequel to the (typically) BL game Our Life: Beginnings & Always, childhood friends to lovers and navigating the journey to adulthood.

Nova Hearts: modern/superhero, LI info isn't available yet but it's a LGBTQ+ tagged dating sim and the premise is fun, all the local "hot singles" got turned into superheroes/villains and now you can date them.

Wow, thank you so much anon!

Definitely quite a few on this list I hadn't heard of.

Sims 4: zombie apocalypse challenge

A nuclear explosion has resulted in strange zombie like traits infecting billions of people. Help your sims survive in the wasteland. This is just a fun challenge i made up while playing the sims I hope you enjoy :)

Also I might share my builds or sims for this challenge a bit later, I'm very proud of them.

Getting started:

In CAS:

Create a family of 2 or more sims. both big and small families have different advantages and disadvantages in this challenge. Make sure that at least 2 of the sims will be able to reproduce, as you cant meet other sims in the first generation. if the family has children, make sure the heir is a toddler. This family are your survivors. The goal of the challenge is to survive 10 generations, the 10th generation having the cure for the infection. All sims must have two day outfits: a regular one for inside the bunker, and a fully concealed outfit that is used for venturing into the outside world. toddlers and children dont have any appropriate facecoverings, so they cannot be outside for longer then an hour. (unless you have cc) Pets are allowed, but it may make the game more challenging in the first few generations.

In Build mode:

Give yourself unlimited money (unless you want an extra challenge) and build a home. it doesnt have to be furnished, but make sure you have a ladder or stairway downstairs to a bunker. This is where your sims will survive.

Decorate the bunker however you want but keep in mind these restrictions for the first generation:

1. you must make the stairway or ladder in a seperate enclosed room. The air outside is toxic, you cant let it into the rest of the bunker.

2. you may only have 4 rooms starting out, excluding the ladder/staircase room.

3. you must put all the beds in one room.

4. the lot must be off the grid.

5. no electronics, including the off the grid tablet.

6. no carpet or wooden floor. the floor must be dirt, but you can use cardboard or newspaper to cover it.

After you have completed building, exit build mode and set your money to zero. put all sims in the basement and then lock the door to the ladder or stairs room. this can only be unlocked for one sim at a time, whilst they are wearing their outside clothes.

The zombies:

There is two options for zombies:

1. Easy to difficult. Start with 1 household of any number of zombies. each generation of survivors adds an extra zombie household.

2. difficult to easy. start with 10 households of zombies, each generation of survivors deletes one household.

Zombies can look any way, but make sure you can differentiate them from normal sims. if your sim interacts with a zombie, is too near a zombie (you can decide the distance for your own difficulty level) or gains any relationship with one while away from the lot, they will become a zombie, therefore being removed from your household. if all your household members are zombies, you fail the challenge.

Zombies must have one of the following traits:

Evil

Glutton

Hates children

Slob

Gloomy

Loner

Now that you have a survivor family and zombie/s family, you may start gameplay. Remember that sims must survive by gathering vegetables and fruit in the wild. you may also have a garden on your lot. You may only prepare a meal if you have money for it, otherwise gathered food only.

Generation 1: Surviving

This generation believes they are the only survivors. They forage and grow food in their garden outside, but otherwise stay tucked away in their bunker. No sim may have a job or go to school. Money may be earned through selling collected items, or crafting something on a woodworking table. A woodworking table can also be used to create furniture for your sims.The main goal of this generation is to expand the bunker so each sim can live comfortably, ideally having a room to themselves. Wooden floor may be earned by maxing out the handiness skill.This generation is completed once the heir becomes a teenager.

Generation 2: contact

Create another survivor family. place them somewhere in the world.You cannot travel to this families home, but once your family runs into the other family, you can befriend them. This makes your sims realise they are not alone, and you can now bring other sims into your family to marry, as well as having the ability to make friends.This generation ends after the heir becomes a teenager.

Generation three: thriving

Survivors all across the sims world have a tight knit community. bunkers can now have carpet and wood floors with no requirements. sims may visit other sims bunkers if they are low on needs that cannot be fufilled in your bunker for any reason. eg borrowing a meal from your neighbours if low on money and supplies. You may also pickpocket to earn money.This generation ends once the heir is a teenager.

Generation 4: the air is clearing

It is less toxic to be outdoors, the radiation is beginning to clear. Sims may now go outdoors without protective clothing for up to 5 hours. Beware of the zombies. Sims may now have a career as a gardener or labourer. if your sim befriends a zombie at work, they become a zombie. Bring your sim home from work after 5 hours each day.

Generation 5: outside

The radiation is at a liveable level. Sims may venture outside the bunker and live in their house. Make sure all the doors are locked, sims still are only allowed out when you decide. Still no school, but sims may now work as a criminal, and can work for a full day. Your house must still be off the grid.This generation ends when the heir is a child.

Generation 6: back to normal?

Life has returned to a semi normal state. No power or running water, but simkind is making do. Sims can now work as buisness people, lawyers, babysitters, waiters, entertainers, and teachers. Sims may now go to school, befriending a zombie at school means they are a zombie. this generation ends when the heir is a toddler.

Generation 7: a new threat

The government has fallen to anarchy. things were looking up for the world, but something has destroyed it again. your heir must now live in the remains. School costs 50 dollars per day. Sims may only work as spies or criminals. All sims born in this generation must age up with either the unflirty, loner, or non commital. create a household of law enforcement. if a sim runs into law enforcement while any need is below green, they are in the criminal or spy career, or they have anything in their inventory, they will be arrested and removed from the household.This generation ends when the heir is a teenager.

Generation 8: a new hope

Your sim has had enough. They are sick of how messed up the government has gotten. They decide they are going to fix everything. Heir must join the politics career and reach level 10 in the politician branch, becoming the national leader. if you dont have city living, reach level 10 in the spy career. after becoming the leader, things improve. school is free, all jobs are available, law enforcement household may be deleted. You can also move your household to a fancier lot, fit for the president. Unfourtunately, zombies are still a threat to your population, and although you kill them when you can, there is always more hiding where you cant see. Generation ends when the heir is a teenager.

Generation 9: curing the apocalypse

Your sim is living a peaceful life. electricity has returned, they have plenty of friends, plenty of food. but zombies. theyve lost a couple friends or family members to zombies, they desperately want a cure. but no one is working on it. So your sim makes it their life goal to be the one who figures it out. Join the secret agent career. reach level 10, diamond agent branch. (if you have get to work you could also join the scientest career instead) Once this has been completed, visit a zombie household with protective gear and some sort of food item. gift the food item, and "cure" the zombies in CAS.generation ends once sim has completed the career and had an heir.

Generation 10: peace

The last zombies are dwindling out. This generation has no restrictions other then staying away from zombies. if they do become a zombie, they only need to get to the "cure" item without interacting with family. Each week, (if doing easy to difficult) delete or "cure" one of the zombie households untill none are left. if doing difficult to easy, cure the last zombie household. live in peace.

The end! Hope this wasn't too confusing lol

The Unpacking Experience - a Sims 4 challenge

This challenge was inspired by the game Unpacking. It is a challenge that is played with a single generation, much like the Unpacking game. This is a great challenge for those who want to try moving to different neighbourhoods or building different houses, or if you're just bored and want to try something new!

This challenge was written with multiple packs in mind, but I have tried to think of Base Game only alternatives. Your sims can have any traits, any skills, any appearance etc., as this challenge is more about living through your sim's life and moving to different homes. You can find the challenge under the cut!

A few more things:

This challenge is supposed to be fun! If there is anything you don't like, just skip it.

If you share any stories/images regarding this challenge, I'd love to see them! Please use the tag #ts4UnpackingExperience

Please don’t copy my challenge and post it somewhere else; feel free to link back to this post though! Any similarity this challenge has to others is pure coincidence!

If you wish to convert this challenge for one of the other sims games, please let me know!

Childhood home

Make a sims family and move into a home. You are free to set up your family's skills, jobs and funds as you like. You can make edits to your house but not move.

Your unpacking sim is a child.

Make sure neighbourhood stories will not kill or move your parents out of their home!

Pick two items to take with you to every home. (one as a child and one as a teen)

University

You get 3000 simoleons of pocket money. + 1000 if you had a part-time job as a teenager

Discover University: go to university and live in dorms for at least one semester (after this, move on to the next stage or stay for another semester). Your parents may pay for the first week of university if they can afford it.

Base Game: live in a studio or trailer for at least 1 week

Pick one extra item to take with you to every home (3 items total)

Roommates

Move in with your best friend(s) into their home (you may build them a new one).

Pick one extra item to take with you to every home (4 items total)

First romance

City Living/Eco lifestyle: Move into your partner’s apartment with them (you may furnish an apartment for them before moving in)

Basegame: Your partner has standard starting funds to build/buy a house with, then set their funds to 0. Move into this house and pay the bills as rent.

Pick one extra item to take with you to every home (5 items total)

Heartbreak

Break up with your partner and move back into your parental home.

Cheat your parents’ funds back to 0; you may use their income to pay the bills.

Pick one extra item to take with you to every home (6 items total)

On your own

City Living/Eco Lifestyle: Move into your own apartment

Base game: move into one of the smallest lots (e.g. 15x20 lots in Newcrest)

Tiny Living (if no CL/EL): move into a tiny home

Pick one extra item to take with you to every home (7 items total)

One plus one makes two

Ask your partner to move into the apartment/house with you

Pick one of your partner’s items to take with you (8 items total)

A probably not so great writing tip I utilize a lot in character creation is to make my characters in the sims. Now your probably thinking, but pyreofsunflowers, EVERYONE does that!!! No no no. I mean really *make* your characters in the sims as a building exercise. Think about what they actually would wear to bed, what they wear exercising, how their wardrobe changes during cold weather. Do they wear the same shoes for every outfit? Is there jewelry always changing? Would they NEVER wear long sleeves? Maybe even go through the ages and figure out what they were like as a child and teenager! Try condensing there character into 5 traits, try picking out a goal for them that's secondary to the plot.

Get nrass and get real nit picky into their backstory - how many credits did they get in college, what kind of high school did they go to, what are their skill points, what social group would they have influence in, etc. Etc.

Build a recreation of their house or living space and really think about the color pallets, how big it is, how messy it is, is it full of trinkets or minimalist and functional? What style of house do they live? Does it clash with their decoration style? How does their room differ from their housemates?

And, last but not least, my slice of life trump card. Make a household of your cast and play as them for an hour. See what kind of interactions and situations they get themselves into, this is an amazing writers block tool especially for Alice of life or b plots.

the sims is an untapped treasure trove of writing tools.

The Mahogany-Scotts Legacy Challenge!

Welcome to the Mahogany-Scotts Legacy Challenge! It’s loosely based on lilsimsie and alwaysimming’s Not So Berry Challenge! This is a ten-generation legacy challenge focused more on story-telling and trying new things!

Thess vs Demos

So Steam had a Next Fest the other week, which was basically just them hurling demos at us like confetti. So I grabbed a few and have been whittling down the list the last few days. Some big ones, some little ones, some I didn’t finish, but enough to get an idea of a few of them. So here we go, the story so far:

Tales of Arise: It was already on my wishlist at least as something that sort of piqued my interest, but this is the first chance I had to actually play it. It’s ... well, it’s exceedingly Japanese. Combat’s better than some of the later FF games, at least. It moved a ways up the wishlist on that basis but it’s still not a priority.

Disciples: Liberation: Weeeeell ... it’s quirky, combat-wise. Turn-based but trying to maintain that action feel. A bit problematic in that you can’t necessarily tell what enemies and how many you’re going to get into at any given point, at least not with how they’ve set up the demo, so you don’t necessarily know how far over your head you’re in until you do the combat. And if you have “Survive Three Rounds” combat scenarios twice in the space of a fucking demo? That says things and I’m not sure I like them. It’s still on the wishlist because I did somewhat enjoy it, but it’s going to take some getting used to.

I Was A Teenage Exocolonist: I would like it to be out right now, please. Its story is interesting in its reveal, its card-system handling of challenges didn’t put me off the way most card-related things do, and anything that manages a system by which your character can be nonbinary if you want is okay by me.

Big Ambitions: It’s a business-running sim, basically, but I didn’t get much further than “Buy a fridge for your cheap-ass apartment and then go get a job”. I figure the full game would be better than the demo but if there’s not a way to skip that first day of doing nothing between getting job and doing job, or at least more things to do in said day, that’s a stumbling block right out the gate that nobody needs.

A Building Full Of Cats: Does what it says on the tin. It’s kind of a hidden object, point and click, messing-with-the-set-dressing Zen thing that’s all about finding all the cats. I can cope with that.

Terra Nil: Meeeeeeeeeh ... I prefer Dorfromantik. It’s like Sim City with plantlife and no people.

There was another one but I basically just dismissed that as “Stardew Valley meets Jean M Auel” and moved on so I don’t remember what it was called. Something about a sacred tree but mostly about playing flutes for animals. Also a hidden object / puzzle game that I didn’t get past the a particular scenario because it was fucking annoying.

Yeah, I deleted the demos I’ve played - except for I Was A Teenage Exocolonist, which weirdly has replay value in and of itself and probably isn’t too resource-intensive on my hard drive. Those I really liked went on the wishlist; those I was okay with and were already on the wishlist stayed on the wishlist. A few didn’t really make the cut, but that’s probably just as well. My wishlist is stupid enough as it is and the priority order of it changes often.

Yaaaaaaay video games.

Wii Sports Sims- Beginners Part 1

I originally started this back in April. Do I remember what compelled me to do this the first time? No. Do I remember what compelled me to do this this time? Also no. Think of this as a proof of concept of sorts. I can't guarantee that I'll do everyone, but I'm aiming recreate the 100 Miis introduced in Wii Sports and Wii Sports in The Sims 4.

I'm mainly going off of the wiki. I'm using it to determine what order I do everyone in, so the only semblance of cohesion in terms of that, at least as far as I can tell, is that I'm sorting them into households based on their Wii Party difficulty. That and scrounging up bits of information such as nationalities and anything that could be used to give these Sims a hint of a personality. If the trivia on the wiki was still filled with a bunch of headcanons it would have made things so much easier.

I also play with quite a lot of cc and mods. That's going to become apparent very quickly.

Haru Okamoto

Age: Teen

Aspiration: Passionseeker

Traits: Geek, Bookworm, Cheerful, Goofball

How did I come up with her personality? Vibes, mostly. This time, mostly Sim vibes. Kind of a dork, but friendly. Wants to master something. What is that something? I don't know and I don't think she does either.

Saburo Moto

Age: Adult

Aspiration: Mega CEO

Traits: Ambitious, Hot-Headed, Self-Assured, Perfectionist, Bookworm

An example of going of Mii vibes. Overly serious and tries to give the impression that he is calm and professional, but his anger often betrays him. Does not like Miyu. He thinks she's annoying.

Miyu Fukuzawa

Age: Teen

Aspiration: In Crowd

Traits: Creative, Cheerful, Outgoing, Clumsy

I don't think anyone would look at Miyu (the Mii) and think of "edgy teenage girl", but here we are. I considered making her and Haru children instead of teens but I don't think most people would be okay with beating a child with a sword. Then again, in Wii Sports Club, you can face Miis such as Xiaojian and, continuing to use Xiaojian as an example, in the Miitopia data files he's listed as a child, so if you can beat a child with boxing gloves then beating a child with a sword is probably fair game. And that also brings up the question of if teenagers count as children in Miitopia's eyes and the ethics of beating a teenager with a sword. I'm probably thinking about this way too hard. These Sims are going to be teens at the youngest.

Is more outgoing and perky than people probably expect judging by her fashion sense. Does not like Saburo. Thinks he's uptight.

Jessie Jaegar

Age: Young Adult

Aspiration: Freelance Botanist

Traits: Loves Outdoors, Active, Good, Self-Assured, Bro

An active participant in her community, probably aspires to own a farm. May or may not have something going on with James. Not sure yet. Does not get along with Luca. Not sure why yet. Luca's one of the Standard Miis so he won't come up for a bit.

Nelly Arthur

Age: Elder

Aspiration: Globe Trotter

Traits: Cheerful, Active, Good, Outgoing, Bookworm

Did you know that Nelly has the highest average skill of all the CPU Miis? I didn't, at least until I made her. So she's a sweet old lady. Who can kick your ass. In sports, at least. Not so much party games. An embodiment of "Call an ambulance! But not for me!" Has a love of learning.

Andy Morris

Age: Adult

Aspiration: Fabulously Wealthy

Traits: Goofball, Cheerful, Self-Assured, Materialistic, Mean

Andy (the Mii) looks like he's up to something. Building off of this severe failure of the vibe check, I decided he's the sleazy businessman type. Constantly up to something and doing it all with a smile on his face. Tried to beat Matt for his boxing champion title. Did not succeed. He still feels bitter about it.

James Bennett

Age: Young Adult

Aspiration: Neighbourhood Confidante

Traits: Active, Good, Self-Assured, Loner, Perfectionist

Building off of the fact that he's the cycling referee, I decided that he's someone who is just and fair. He tries his best to be a good person, though prefers to stay out of the spotlight. Apparently, he was originally going to be Japanese rather than British. Perhaps, to translate that into The Sims 4, he spent his childhood in Mt. Komorebi?

Patrick Bonfils

Age: Adult

Aspiration: Bodybuilder

Traits: Active, Family-Oriented, Foodie, Bro, Self-Assured

Patrick is the one I think I had the most trouble with, to the point I was like "Haha. I ran out of ideas at Sim number 8." Also, the facial details? I have no idea how the hell to interpret it, never mind how to translate that onto a Sim.

I decided to make him a family man. Gave him traits that gave me the most "dad" energy (from the perspective of someone raised by her mother for most of her life) and also the active trait. I gave the body of a weightlifter which is rather unusual for me to do when making Sims.

And that's all for now. If you have any ideas, please share them. For some I currently only have their nationality to work with and I only really use that to determine their surname.

Next: Abby, Tatsuaki, Julie, Chika, Tommy, Mia, Sarah and Alex

10, 20, 28 for the ask game! Sending lots of love, too

xo, Noe

Hi, Noe! 🫶🏼

10. How would you describe the way you play The Sims?

I feel like I have two modes: building mode and storytelling mode. Building mode is pretty straight forward and a little more laid back. I usually work from house plans or just general inspiration pics. Sometimes I use these houses for gameplay but usually I just upload them and take pics of them. For my stories, I often download a house and then heavily edit it rather than build it from scratch. I’m not sure why I do this since I do like building so much 🤷🏻‍♀️

The second I’m calling storytelling mode vs gameplay mode because I play the game around my own stories vs letting the gameplay dictate the narrative. I guess part of this is due to the gameplay of TS4 but I also just think it’s personal style, as I love writing this story so much. But in between story shoots I do actually like to play the everyday lives of the families and kind of let them do their own thing.

20. What is your least favorite sim age?

Oof. This one is tough, especially because TS4 really has some weak ones. I use a lot of mods to flesh out the age groups, like the preteen mod has vastly improved my opinion of teenagers and detailed school mods make children a bit more fun.

It’s going to have to be toddlers, just because of the way I play. I age up my babies as soon as they’re born and size them down so my sims are toddlers for a long time. So usually at the middle of the age span their skills are maxed out and they have nothing left to do. Really, it’s because there’s nothing for them to do as babies. If part of the toddler experience was more akin to a very, very young child then this would change completely. So I guess the answer is really babies but well… they aren’t even really a sim age.

28. How do you choose your sim’s traits, aspirations, and/or career?

Whew. This is a long one lol

It totally depends on what/how I’m playing. Like I mentioned in another answer I was playing NSB2 before the Darlingtons so that dictated all of that. But even still, I have never been good with randomization in this game, try as I might, so I usually either pick things out or follow some sort of challenge rules.

For the Darlingtons, all of these answers are really driven by the story that I’ve written for the sims. As a rule I’ve set for myself, each Darlington child must inherit one trait for a parent (or in Rosella’s case, from a grandparent). This creates some sort of continuity between generations but also makes me kind of rework that trait and imagine what it would be like in a different sim. So for instance (mild spoilers here maybe?) Virginia inherited the good trait from Florence, but will have vastly different other traits. Zelda inherited the music lover trait from Oliver but she too will have a very different character from her father.

Careers and aspirations are chosen after the traits, as I feel like traits have the biggest influence in how I write the story. As I go forward in writing, I’ll incorporate what is available in game career wise into their lives to flesh out the narrative. I also try to switch up my sims careers in their lives as it feels more realistic and it changes with their story. Plus, I use a career overhaul mod to make it a bit more difficult for them, because overall TS4 can be a bit too easy.

Aspirations are kinda meh. I’ll pick one that most aligns with what I think the sim would want but I don’t feel like TS4 aspirations are really lifetime goals? So usually I don’t put too much import on them. I also use lumpinou’s talents and weaknesses mod, which I do let randomize to give the sims a bit more depth.

I think what's so genuinely infuriating about playing with autonomy on in the Sims 4 is not just that Sims are constantly doing stupid shit and failing to prioritize caring for themselves, but rather you can't leave them alone with a task to focus on another Sim without that first Sim wandering away from their assigned task to do something else instead.

Like I'm playing the Sims 3 again and my Sims are constantly doing dumb shit. For example I sent the mom of my current legacy family to go get groceries and knew she'd get back home on her own eventually but while focusing on her boyfriend she went and dumpster dove autonomously and ended up nauseous and smelly. Which while I didn't expressly WANT her to do that, it managed to stay just a funny story thing my Sim did on her own, because at the very least when I'm having her boyfriend cook dinner or I send her out to care for her garden or I have her teenage daughter do her homework I know they'll all stay 'stuck' to that task until it's completed. High Free Will in the Sims 3 is fun because your Sims will go about their lives and care for themselves while you're focused on another member of the household and autonomously do stuff based on their traits and whatever objects are near them while also not constantly defying your input unless there's something like a routing issue directly blocking them or their motives drop low enough that it breaks them out automatically.

Meanwhile in the Sims 4 I constantly play with autonomy off and puppet each family member in my legacy households around manually because if I play with it on I'll queue up a Sim to make dinner and tab off to another family member to have them care for one of the infants only to hear the fire alarm go off not two minutes later because the first Sim abandoned the stove to go dance to the music that their teenage kid turned on in the other room. Or I instruct them to work on a skill important to their job or whatever simoleon making scheme I'm pursuing and I'll come back after focusing on someone else to find them autonomously doing something completely unrelated.

And you also can't reliably leave them on their own to care for themselves because they'll always do actually stupid shit like prioritize napping over sleeping even when its 10pm and their energy need is in the red, and child Sims ignore the concept of leftovers and end up eating a bowl of peas for every meal for a week straight while you're busy caring for their infant sibling then have the gall to complain about unbalanced meals.

It's so fucking annoying, and it's what keeps driving me back to tS3 despite the admitted qol and build/buy mode improvements in tS4 because that level of micromanaging while in line to how I've always played the Sims gets so incredibly exhausting with how much I have to do it in tS4 to have a bare minimum functional household.
