in defense of the mundanity of the sims,,,,,,,,, as someone who often finds the mundanity of real human adult life to be overwhelming and unrewarding, playing the sims has genuinely helped me take better care of myself. idek the last time i played the sims but now forever in my mind is the concept of their needs bars. like if i'm procrastinating taking a shower or taking dishes out of my room, i can visualize the way that that affects a sim over time. anything that i can't see or visualize tends to become lost in the void of intangible concepts for me, but i know that a sim's mood is affected by personal stench or dirty dishes, and i can see the stench clouds that eventually become disgustingly visible and i can see the sims' mood go from "happy" to "grumpy" or whatever all bc there is one (1) coffee mug from the day before that's been sitting on the counter overnight. so even if i can't smell how much i need to shower and i think those two plates on my desk aren't bothering me, i can visualize the sims' mood going from "grumpy" back to "happy" as soon as they and their environment are clean again, and that helps remind me how rewarding those mundane tasks can be. not riches or accolades, but my own mental health is a reward in and of itself :)

[@whatsitshortfor]

Gameplay wise is very different, especially when we compare The Sims 3 mood system that made emotion much more stable and act as a buff for their subjective well-being, than The Sims 4 emotion system that easy to be manipulated and conditioned. Also, sims from The Sims 3 are able to maintain their own needs than in other version, combined with slower needs decay. I'd say much more forgiving for the newbie simmer.

Whats diff between 2, 3, and 4? Just got graphics improvements?

[@pinkcatgamertv7572]

Okay as someone who has grown up on the sims 3 and 4, the difference is quite astounding aside from just the graphics. The sims 3 generally has more gameplay options and variety. Sims can carpool to work or drive their cars, they can also catch butterflies and wander around an open world. Sims 3s greatest appeal imo is the gameplay and also the amount of customization you can get with the colorwheel and create a style. Sims 4 is by far much easier in terms of gameplay and feels a little simpler but has its advantages. Its items and cas all have items that are more current (the sims 3 has some wild hairstyles). The sims 4 I think thrives more in its CAS and Build Buy rather than gameplay which also tends to be glitchy at best. Another huge difference is just the interface. I prefer the sims 4 camera much more than the sims 3 one since I feel more control with it. Back to gameplay, in the sims 3 the game has more autonomy so each playthrough could go vastly different from others depending on the random variables meanwhile the sims 4 you have to cultivate what happens a little more to add variety. Sorry for the long ramble :) Hope this helps

[@dion789]

One of the things that really helps with the daily grind is unlocking wishes that make the hunger and hygiene bars empty slower and remove the need to go to the toilet. You can deal with those things at the start of the game, and when you grow tired of the micromanaging you can remove those and focus on other things. I love this game to bits. The sims 3 in particular. But I think many simmers have fond memories of the craziness and newness of the sims and the extensive graveyards of the Sims 2 before you got to explore a whole neighborhood.

This happened to m in the sims 4 but one of the craziest shit that has happened to me was that after finally finishing a sim that took me a whole day just to make (+ another day making the house) and when i start my games i always like to cook FIRST and i made toast and eggs and then my sim caught on fire, and JUST STAYED THERE TO DIE THEY DIDNT EVEN TRY THE OPTION WAS STUCK

Y’all never fail to make an explanation super clear but also entertaining. Top quality content 👍

nooo the mundane bits are fun sometimes like making my sim brush their teeth was a special little activity and they got the minty breath moodlet i liked that

[@chrisbtender5992]

this game really fucks with your psyche and i think you captured that well here

My sims boyfriend adopted a child randomly. So I married him and moved in with him. I lasted 2 days. Between getting them all to go to work and getting him to go to school, feeding them, showering them, getting them to complete work/school tasks, I had my sim move out 💀. Then she became a blood thirsty serial killer/famous author and now she’s hiding out in the islands.
