It's an interesting take to see the Hatfield children as different ages. I'm so glad you gave their house a makeover. That was sourly needed. And it did look like Reality Bites from the console game.

[@VioletKitty411]

I was so proud of myself for doing it within budget! It's not grand but it's much more workable on so many levels!

[@stygia2002]

This is so nostalgic! I'm heading for Sims 2 now!

[@VioletKitty411]

I actually found the TS1 downloads for all of them the other day too! These families are so much fun because they are flawed.

I had downloaded the extra Sims 1 families but never put them in my game so this is nice seeing a new-to-me family. You are Ulysses T's higher power so I hope he's right that things are gonna get better. The family's bios are golden! Baby girl is going to take care of her parents and show up her brothers. lol I love the new floor plan. All space is usable without that hallway, and even though the living room and kitchen are open-concept, the way they are now situated makes seem like their own rooms. You know how the tub acts like it's broken but there is no repair action available? In a case like this, would the tub correct itself once a sims takes a bath?

[@VioletKitty411]

I had thought that I'd given the toddler a bath but maybe I didn't do that? I meant to give one to Elizabeth Elvira to see how well that worked. Sims religion was truly codified in Sims Medieval which I've played just a tiny bit. But yes they did clarify that the player is the Watcher and that is the deity.

@@VioletKitty411 I never played Sims Medieval. I knew it had a religious aspect to it though. Is Sims Medieval a good game?

[@VioletKitty411]

@@estreetangel when Sims 2 first came out I actually envisioned something like Sims Medieval using the Sims 2 engine which I called in my head Sims Castle so I was excited about Sims Medieval and it has some good aspects but I don't like the gold ribbon gameplay as much as I do the consoles or the stories series. And of course it uses the three engine which I don't like very much.
