I made a fancy private school for my sims when that castle kit came out a while back. I had to fill the second floor with rooms that would probably exist in a school but that sims would never want to actually use, like a library, a music room, and art room, etc. As always, yours turned out much nicer than mine did, and it really does capture the Life is Strange vibe!

thank you!! i didnt want my sims to run off and never make it to class so i left the top floor empty, but that definitely would have been fun as well!

When playing The Sims, I've never done anything in Granite Falls, simply because the EA builds are so bad. This build is very, very good! I wish this cabin actually existed, so that I could visit it in real life.

thank you!! granite falls (and a lot of other worlds tbh) really deserve a refresh so theyre more tempting to visit

I once tried something similar to this, by converting the Ancient Ruins in Windenburg into a hidden clubhouse for a group of witches that secretly live in Windenburg. But yours turned out so much better than mine did! I love how natural and organic your build is, as if magic is just part of the natural world.

I really like this build! I think The Sims needs more older, forgotten-about places like this one. It's always fun to imagine the history of a house like this. How did a home that was so fancy and expensive when it was new fall into such a state of disrepair? Did the neighborhood or the town around it fall on hard times? Who owns it now? Has anyone tried to renovate it?
@cattsical2 ай бұрын
i also love thinking about the story because realistically a house this large and nice wouldnt just be left unless something was seriously wrong with it... which in the sims could be a lot of things LOL

About the ending of a game, I think that the idea that it was all a dream is usually bad in most stories, but it works in Spiritfarer. A story is a journey: you start somewhere, do some stuff, and then end up somewhere else when it is over. If we are told that the journey happened in the real world, and then told "surprise, it was all a dream," then the story isn't true anymore. But the story in Spiritfarer is presented from the beginning as an emotional journey, and emotions live in our hearts and in our minds. it is a story about love and loss, and not a story about building a boat. Because the real journey of the game always happens inside of Stella's heart, her story is true whether it happened or not.

A lot of people don't like the end of Atul's storyline, but I think it makes sense given who he is. Throughout the game, you see Atul being helpful and cheerful and generous, and I think he has learned to derive his self-worth from his usefulness to others. But if that's the attitude he takes, then when he needs help from Stella, not only is he not useful, he is a burden. And he can't have that, so he thinks he has to go to the Everdoor alone. It isn't true, of course -- Stella loves Atul because of who he is, and not because of what he can do for her. But people aren't perfect, and they don't live perfect lives. The tragedy of Atul's story isn't that he leaves without saying goodbye -- it's that he lived his entire life carrying a silent sadness inside of him, when it wasn't necessary for him to do so. Had he learned to let people in and to ask for help when he needed it, he would have learned how loved he truly is.
@cattsical9 ай бұрын
so true, atul shows basically no pain compared to the other spirits and it definitely feels like he is keeping this from everyone for that reason

I love that! I visited an old train station in the United States that had been converted into a combination of a café and a bike shop. The railroad next to it had been converted into a bicycle path, so there was no longer any need for the train station. But the building was too beautiful to leave unused.

That is absolutely beautiful, and it's so much nicer than the Magical HQ that ships with Realm of Magic. The most important thing that this building needs to do is to convince you that magic is ancient and powerful and important, and you've definitely done that.
