Destroying families with the new Sims 4 Romance pack

[@shineeeevee9382]

"So call me Eggplant".

Jim's romantic dance in the eggplant suit taught me what love is

[@janecheer]

I love how there's an entire Sims lore about the strange and mysterious life story of Bella Goth that youtubers love and exploring and explaining, and Jim just hooks up with her super non-chalantly

[@wissert]

As someone who loves the townies with lore but hates Mortimer, this was honestly the best of both worlds. I honestly prefer seeing her with eggplant Jim over whatever the sanitised TS4 versions did to that family.

[@tegandetermann3299]

To be fair, TS4 Bella isn't the special and mysterious woman of the older games.

[@Emperor_Hirohito_]

And we Also had Gray and Josh (Graystillplays & Let’sgameitout) torture their sims in some truly magical ways

[@OnionTheBat]

Well it doesn't help that none of the lore is translated ingame. If the devs don't make an effort to blend lore and gameplay, it's simply easy to ignore. But this kinda sums up Sims 4 as a whole

[@cooliostarstache5474]

Jim is the main character, whether the devs admit it or not

[@thedudeorsomething]

Kevin solved the mystery of Bella Goth! She wasn't abducted by aliens, Jim Pickens stole her. Close enough though.

[@pedrovallefin8406]

You mean Jim Pickens isn't an alien? You sure about that? 🤔

Pickens vs the iconic Goth family is not something I expected from a romance pack, but it definitely works.

[@pedrovallefin8406]

Honestly im surprised it took him this long to ruin their lives. He had some individual encounters with them before, but he never meet them all at once i think. Good thing he took the opportunity to completely destroy their household, unrelated to the pack theme as it may be. He did try to use the pack initially, but halfway though the video he went back to regular Jim Pickens shenanigans.

[@JustAFace_InTheCrowd]

All those babies…… how MORT-ifying.

[@phoebedarker]

Heheehe

[@CandyassGoth]

21:06 Eggplant Jim ANNOUNCING he and Mortimer were having a science baby, and then just leaving without Mortimer even replying, already holding another child, is sitcom material 😭

[@TheOneTrueSmurfinator-sf6le]

Knowing Kevin I'm surprised he didn't name one of the babies Mortician. That way it could care for the other children when things go awry 💀💀

[@pedrovallefin8406]

That's the name of the eight baby that's yet to be born. Don't tell Mortimer though, it's a surprise for him.

[@Mostie-ev7oh]

I can't wait for the inevitable return of Project Pickens when the new Life and Death EP drops. Finally Jim and Grim can have their one true heir.

[@TheChandraraj12]

Broke: Bella Goth was abducted by aliens Woke: Bella Goth ran away with Jim Pickens in an eggplant costume

[@artry93]

HAHAHA...That's shot to the ground early than Bella's "new and improved" look from Maxis/EA for their Gen Z (no shocker, no offences to that gen), Y (Hot and Cold) and then X (???) target audiences, and I'm from the specific groups and Gen Y crowds that EA is craving and fetishism from mid-2010s to current for maintenance appeals and I smells the bulls*** with their numerous DLC and half cut expansions (70+ more than TS1, TS2 and even TS3!), Sims Girus and programmers exit left and right, cancelling of TS5 and project Rene included zero graphic overhaul for TS4 (10+ years since release in 2014 and entering to another decade slowly show its aged) and using TS4's questionable popularity to print another money schemes from their hardcore but committed Simmers. My favourite moments is when EA/Maxis getting the wake up call at first Paralives (included the drama from one of EA programmers), and then inZOI (included their limited creation mode demo in Gamecons event) and other Life Simulation included Sim Farms from Indies games since 2020s. The real heroes is the Sims Modders (freelancers), which I respect with my experience in the mid 2010s with their mods. No, seriously, in order to make it actual fun in TS4. Good thing, I get my coat and leave this trainwreck with my incomplete DLC and expansion and unistall! Good Job, EA! 😂😂😂😂

Ou what would Heather be?!😊

[@zeitxgeist]

@@0.o.0.o1 Heather is actually English, its root is the word 'heath'. So, a Heather is a person from a heath. Rather than being a 'name' name, your name is a descriptor that's originally based on a feature of the location -- the suffix -er represents the same grammatical concept as in words like doctor, miner, etc. Old English spelling 'hedre' So, you are Heath+er, a person who lives in a heath (untilled land).

[@bananawitchcraft]

@@zeitxgeist I thought the name Heather was just a reference to the plant of the same name, same as other plant names like Lily or Ivy. After looking it up, that seems to be correct. Google says of the etymology of heather (i.e. the plant), "Old English hadre, hedre (recorded in place names), of unknown origin. The word was chiefly Scots until the 16th century; the change in the first syllable in the 18th century was due to association with heath." The heather plant does grow on heaths, and can also itself be classified as a heath in the alternate sense of the word "a dwarf shrub with small leathery leaves and small pink or purple bell-shaped flowers, characteristic of heathland and moorland." tl;dr Heather doesn't mean "person from a heath" but rather "plant from a heath." The word "heathen" actually does mean "person from a heath"
