It looks like Yvette rocked this level. I like how you started her off with some unearned aspiration rewards to give her a good start. Very refreshing for a challenge to give sims those items instead of restricting them or having to earn each one. So far this is a fast-moving challenge. I imagine it gets more difficult as it goes and thus gets slower to advance. I can't wait to see what the next chapter brings and what Yvette needs to accomplish.

They definitely get more involved with each level. Fortunately staying with Mom gave time for her to earn a few reward objects a couple of which I left at Reality Bites but also gave Yvette time to get the skills she needs for her job, so the only thing she has to work on is logic and friendship!

Absolutely loving this series. It’s bringing back so many memories! ❤ So cool with all the capabilities of the Sims 2 as well; I’m growingly interested in how you tackle the shortcomings of the console version with PC; especially in the future levels like sending the kids away - and dealing with toddlers too which console lacked 😮 A non-judgemental question: Do you usually play on 2 or 3 speed? It’s perfect for video (and my shortening attention span 😵‍💫) but wow! how you keep up and everything controlled baffles me 😂 Thanks again for sharing, really enjoyed it ❤

So of course there is no boarding school like the console version has. And ts1 only had military school but that was if your kid was a failure. Because of pregnancy and toddlers I do give more time allowance in who loves you baby and you will see that when we get there. The kids will stay with us the entire time, but I definitely engage in more active childrearing than the console version. Yes I do typically play medium or high speed. I have ever since ts1. In fact medium is mostly for my filming and one specific interaction. Otherwise I usually pause cue things up and then speed through. So glad that you are enjoying it and along for the ride!

Wow, Chris Roomies' last name is Bently in this version. Interesting choice. I've always called her Chris Jones and Melissa's last name being Smith. It's what the Alt Pleasantview by Dreadpirate did. Interesting you had your sim live with Dudley instead of Mimi. In TS1 Console game, I'm pretty sure that female sims room with Mimi and male sims room with Dudley.

Yes in the console version you always live with the Landgrabb of the same sex, so I wanted to mix it up a bit LOL! Now as far as chris, melissa, and the get a life roommate's names are concerned, those were randomized when I created the gameplay for ts4. When I decided to redo this neighborhood I wanted to give them the Dignity of real last names :-)

@@VioletKitty411 That sounds cool! I can't wait to see what the other Roomies' last names are.
