WOOHOO JEALOUSY in Sims 3 vs. Sims 4 - Testing the Drama!

[@NawiTheCore]

Eliza gets slapped and because she's in a Happy mood she barely reacts and keeps smiling after getting slapped. This is exactly why I hate the emotion system in 4 with a burning passion.

[@PleasantSims]

I agree! So many things like this don't make sense.

[@angelic252]

If they bothered to include more emotional reactions to stuff, like a +3 tense, +3 angry and +4 embarrassed moodlets for getting slapped by partner, emotions could feel much more realistic and influential, but they're too chicken to make the game harder by adding more intense negative emotions

[@JanJan4Infinity]

lmao Eliza is queen tho like I wanna be that unbothered too

[@sigh824]

I agree, but it’d be kind of hilarious if EA kept that in for an Ecstatic mood or something in Sims 5. Like this sim is just SO HAPPY that not even a slap to the face is gonna bring them down

[@lorzo2]

Yeah, it would be cool if after getting slapped she gets a +10 tense/angry/sad/embarrassed for 15 minutes or something like that, so she is feeling something very strong but just for a few minutes, and at least she would change is facial expression lol. and they could do this with a lot of interactions, there is no really any short but strong moodlet in the game right now...

[@NawiTheCore]

Not gonna lie, I *HATE* the emotion system in 4.

[@BearKookieKusu]

Literally the sims 2 and sims 3 had MORE emotion than the sims 4... go figure. It's because personalities actually mattered in the sims 2 and 3 that affected their emotion. The sims 4 traits don't actually affect them at all - I'm not kidding there's a video that pointed out that traits don't actually matter in sims 4 because if you have a nicely decorated house then the sims will always remain happy.

[@Julieta920]

[@uselessalpaca6777]

It's really a shame, I remember when Sims 4 came out, I was REALLY excited about the emotion system because I really did think it would be an improvement. I don't even need to say how I've been disappointed in Sims 4 for the last few years

TS3 is so good, honestly

[@ashleysparks8417]

@@MJIAG It really is!! When I was younger I had a male sim who had about 8 or 9 girlfriends. He invited them all to a party and flirted with one of them, the rest of then got angry with him and yelled at him. But then he made out with her and everyone broke up with him. The drama is so great lol!

[@ple8379]

Even toddlers in ts3 (and maybe even newborns I think, tho I'm not remembering it exactly) can get a negative mood from seeing their parents cheating. I remember once, when I played, I got kid's dad cheating with his maid in the same room, just right next to the crib, and I remember being so surprised seeing that moodlet. I wouldn't expect that. But unfortunately, I cannot remember if it was the newborn baby or toddler who was eyewitness, which I'm pretty upset about :d.

[@ashleysparks8417]

@@ple8379 lol I know for sure that toddlers get to moodlet but idk about babies

[@lilcarttheoneandonly]

This really speaks to how badly the sims 4 handles important life events, because my sims always forget about things within the day that it happens, I had my sims get a divorce because my legacy sim found out her husband cheated on her in high school and has another kid, when they got divorced the children forgot about it within 24 hours, they literally didn't care after a day.

[@glanni]

I think there should be a difference between flirting, kissing, and woohoo. Like, when the spouse does the woohoo with another person their relationship should drop far into the red (unless there's maybe a designated trait that makes Sims have open relationships idk), but if they just flirt with someone it should only drop down a bit. Kissing should be a middle ground of some sort, it's pretty bad but not as bad as literal woohoo.

[@PleasantSims]

I agree Elsa! This would be much more realistic.

[@leaselmary_sims2189]

But this is what happens in sims 4

[@marsbarsinthestars3226]

There kind of is a small difference. I tested this vaguely after i watched her last video. When the spouse flirts the other spouse gets angry, but they get a "flirty spouse" moodlet instead

[@harrie4667]

it would be so cool to have open relationships in the sims or something like polyamory. i also have always thought there should be more traits for romance in the sims, like in the sims 3 being a flirty sim and being a hopeless romantic were two different things. and i think it made sense because that way you could have a sim who is flirty in the sense that they like having casual woo-hoo/they flirt a lot but that's different from a sim who really wants to date but has more of a... romantic longing for love kinda thing. you know what i mean?

[@sarasmedberg8203]

@@harrie4667 ive been wanting polyamory and open relationships for such a long time now :( some relationships are more open than others and its a shame that society keeps forgetting that. id also like to see swingers, itd be fun from a story related perspective rather than have the same standard relationships all the time

[@SwagDonkeyGaming]

How to make emotions better: -Make important moodlets more powerful -Make important moodlets last longer -Emotions need to work with personalities, a sim that isn't very loyal should probably feel happier after cheating and not as much tense -Memories need to be apparent, that way when sims that have bad histories interact that seeps in, along with trait conflicts -Emotions need to be less manipulatable (imo decorations should not be able to influence moods) -Emotions need to provide more challenge to the game Emotions currently act as a sort of salad dressing and skill enhancer in the Sims 4. You have to play pretend in order to get a sense of your sim feeling real, and even then for me it's hard to make that connection.

[@lorzo2]

There is an option in the game for disable decoration to be able to influence moods.

[@mastermind4499]

"You have to play pretend in order to get a sense of your sim feeling real, and even then for me it's hard to make that connection." Of course it is when their social interactions are complete mess. I mean when I want my sim couple to woohoo I always want them to perform some romantic actions before that, but they always annoy me because they're like "oh, you look so great honey, but I want to play PC right now suddenly, sorry!". Or when you want them to actually do something, like write a book and *then* other family members suddenly be like "hmm, I think I need to talk to my wife more often". And my personal favorite story: so I sent my sim and his crush on a date. And every like 10-20 in game minutes a random stranger would interfere in their conversation. I was so freaking furious. Imagine IRL that you finally invite your crush on a date in a restaurant and every 10 minutes some random dudes would come to your table and start talking:"hey guys, nice weather! By the way, wanna hear a joke about politics? Of course you want!". Or when your crush started talking to random dudes instead of you for the whole date.

I always found this weird. I could make a whole family in CAS but when the parents woohoo, the little notification celebrates that it’s their “first woohoo” but they have kids?? In TS2, if you make a married couple with kids they will automatically have memories of their first kiss, woohoo, and births of their children.

About jealosy in the sims 2. I will always remember how my student sim "cheated" on his fiancee. The stupid cow flirted with him, MY SIM REJECTED the flirt, but his fiance went NUTS anyway. Ugh. I think they broke up, I was not so experienced at that time and didn't know how easy it is to fix the sims 2 relationship. I also remember a family where parents were divorced, kids stayrd wiyh the mom and mom remarried. So every time she was romantic with her husband, kids would cry and hate her. C'mom kids, mom isn't cheating, your parents are divorced (because dad was cheating btw), this is your step dad, it's OK! Nope. They hated her. -100/-100. A tragedy hard for me to forget. I was very young and wasn't using mods, so I had all the vanilla sims 2 drama, hovewer unfair and unrealistic it was sometimes.

I found a weird jealousy reaction last time I played the Sims 2. Komei Tellerman had a one-sided crush on Marisa Bendett. He walked in on her cuddling with someone on a couch and just angrily shook his head at the two. When I peeked at his action queue, the head-shaking behavior was called “disapprove.” He got upset with them both but didn’t end up confronting either of them. Just walked off looking salty.

I liked how jealousy worked in sims 3 where sims could get betrayed if they saw a family member cheating compared to sims 4!! Sims 4 is kind of a improvement then what I saw in the other video but I still think it’s worse and mods make it waaay better and the unmodded game needs to have the moodlet last longer and make the moodlet more stronger then the other ones but I don’t think ea cares enough to make the small changes or if they did it would take ANOTHER six years

i've been playing only the Sims 3 lately (inspired by your channel) and honestly I forgot how good the game was. like if the parents divorced, all the children even toddlers and babies would have a depressed moodlet for 2 days for witnessing the heartbreak and anything else they do hardly overshadows this moodlet.

[@bubbles993]

I feel like there should be something in the Sims 4 that locks the emotion in place as the most important emotion, at least for a day or two, because it's just weird how the sim can immediately get happy from watching TV after cheating or death.

[@Vannah272]

I feel like a spouse or relative dying is the only negative life event that plays out semi-realistically in the Sims 4. I've been playing a legacy for four generations that involves a lot of spouse deaths and even after making them cry it out and call the sadness hotline they were moping around for days regardless of how many happy buffs they got. It was a welcome surprise.

[@harrie4667]

i recently went back to the sims 3 after a long time and i had forgotten several features that it had and it surprised me - i had a sim who wanted to date her neighbor, and i noticed he was often rejecting her flirting for no reason. then i found out he had started dating another girl and when my sim convinced him to break up with her, the girl and my sim instantly hated each other. so they had never even met or anything but my sim became enemies with her as soon as she "stole" her boyfriend. i found it super cool because it wouldn't happen in ts4 at all.

[@voicememosforthevoid]

you know something that's annoying about sims 4 moodlets is that positive moodlets (ie. confident, romance, focused, playful) can be buffed by happy moodlets (like with Eliza at 11:04, gaining that one confident moodlet put her as "very confident" because it's buffed by the four other happy ones) but we don't often have that with negative ones. like embarrassment isn't buffed by being tense. it just adds to the ease to be in a positive mood most of the time. (that and having negative moods can lead to death which i thinks makes more players want to avoid them, even if those emotional deaths are less volatile than they were in the beginning of the game)

In my experience, the sentiment system alongside the faulty emotion system makes cheating a LOT more realistic. Depending on the relationship and the cheating, sims will get a deeply hurt and angry sentiments. That will cause them to constantly have bad interactions, speak negatively about their significant other and refuse to sleep in the same bed as them. Kind of like fury in the sims 2.

[@Nisha-it4tp]

I was playing a save on sims 4 and my sim was with a guy who turned out to be married and his wife saw them kiss in a restaurant later the same day my sim went to a club and the wife showed up and died of anger

[@SimmiGaming]

I remember once I played a family in the sims 2, a couple with a teen. i killed the parents off (I like to have teens start a very difficult life, like in "princess sarah" or something). My teen would randomly wake up with nightmares for days and days and it never really went away! She constantly cried and had these nightmares. It took so much effort to bring her back to a "happy" life. It really felt like she had clinical depression, she would randomly stop what she's doing and think about her parents and cry. At some point I even thought I wouldn't be able to "save" her. It was so hard to have her be sucessfull in school and in her personnal life because she was so depressed! (all this was before i discovered mods of course) I tried to recreate this situation in TS4 but of course nothing works....

[@gabrielsouza8480]

I think the reason why emotions are so easy to counteract in The Sims 4 is because if a Sim stays in the most extreme state of some emotions for too long (I believe it's 4 hours), then they'll die, and the game is supposed to be easy on new players. I would actually like it to be harder to counteract them since it's already rare for Sims to get to that point.

[@leoreth2179]

I actually like that in the sims 4 we can have no-jealousy reward trait in-game by completing one of the romantic aspirations. As a polyamorous person I like to have at least some kind of representation. But I was unaware about this part of the game for 5 years because I never was interested on cheating even in the sims and never had this aspiration completed %) I wish this trait was in the CAS. Now I have to cheat the reward trait to all of my sims involved in the polyamorous relationship.

One difference between Woohooing and different cheating in the sims 3. Is that if you woohoo on the same lot your spouse is in, even if you’re not in the same room, you will definitely get caught.

[@ognjensijak989]

I think we should have first tier and second tier emotions. For example. Being cheated on should be a first tier emotion which means that a second tier emotion (for example a decor buff) doesn't affect it. Even if it has more "positive points".

[@Blucharls]

Very interesting experiments Cindy. I love Zero's cheating mod, I must try it with the others you recommended. One thing to note: I found with Zero's mod installed, my sims became so upset by cheating that they kept dying from emotional deaths :/ Meaningful Stories would seem to balance this better?? You might like to try an alternative to Zero's mod. Lumpinou has a contextual social interactions mod with a separate cheating module. It provides social interactions such as confess to cheating, etc. It's recommended that you don't have both Zero's and Lumpinou's mods installed at the same time however. I'm a new fan, love your videos!

[@mowana1232]

In my experience the "meaningful stories" mod will not only lengthen the time of the negative moodlet but also ensure that it can't be easily overpowered by positive moodlets (e.g. from decorations or an excellent meal). I have been playing with "meaningful stories" for a while and highly recommend it. It has excellent in-game pop-ups that explain what the mod is doing while things are happening and is also fully adjustable. It takes real effort to get your sim out of a funk (should you wish to improve his or her mood), which makes gameplay more challenging, but also way more... meaningful.

I mean yeah, jealousy does addwct the relation and moods but like, watching the TV to change moods and then interacting with the cheated/cheater/cheated with and the relation suddenly fixes itself They were going into aomething but also c'mon that's way too easy

[@Maxianaconda]

I love this series! You're doing an amazing job!

[@PleasantSims]

Thank you so much!

[@frogsnack7072]

Very entertaining- I don't think I'd mind Sims 4 if they expanded the dramatic parts of it over some of the more cartoony content (like the way the murphy bed kills, it's such a slapstick way to die and the tragedy is lost). The fact that there is a friendship meter and a separate romance meter has so much potential for gameplay with challenges etc. However TS3 needs a mod to allow the spouse to stop the woohoo by inflicting bodily harm or something- I'd settle for a book to the head from the bookshelf. The the Sims 4 husband was sitting on the couch when he was very angry was beautiful- too bad it didn't pop an additional moodlet on the people around them like 'uncomfortable atmosphere' or something.

I’m a bit late to this video but Kaylynn strutting after sleeping with Daniel cracks me up 😂

[@liv7357]

Love the series Cindy! I’m hoping to catch a twitch stream soon

[@PleasantSims]

Thank you! And I hope you can join us for a stream!

[@82Renating]

Thank you! My curiosity has moved on to new aspects of this. Because you and some other comments here are mentioning how easy it is to get rid of anger by mirror and art? But hey! You also talk about realistic play... I would play like the sim would talk it out with friend and partner. So I liked how you checked if cheating did something to the interaction panel. Maybe different personalities get different whims for how to deal with betrayal? Like a money sim will go on a spending spree, or a family sim wants to talk to others? You touch the subject, but I haven't played the s4, so there's a missing aspect for me. Like... My sims would never be allowed to hide from each other after something like that.

[@M4RYJ.20]

I'm so glad I found your channel, I LOVE your content. EA should just hire you already lol, keep up the good work!

[@charlottecook2755]

i’d love to see a comparison around death in each game and how it effects other sims that would be really cool

[@LaDomiiT.O]

6:19 is how I am trying to exit uncomfortable situations

[@TommyLikeTom]

"that's how I would interpret it" I love you! You are beautiful! I hope you get a job in Quality Assurance at EA

[@ziadmhmd2259]

Your videos are the most entertaining sims videos on KZbin I swear 👍👏👌

[@PleasantSims]

Aww! Thank you so much! 💙

[@qwitchyy]

We love a fair content creator 👏👏👏

[@comefindyou2465]

Fair? No. You brought the pancakes out of their betrayal but you didn’t on the sims 3. It’s SO much harder to do on sims 3, even after they accept you they still don’t. It takes a looooooong time to have them forgive you on sims 3.

[@comefindyou2465]

I’ll be honest and have a critique for you, stick to other videos and non sims 4. It may get you views but no one likes it. Sims 4 is absolute garbage.

[@Ilivepuppys]

In a way I like that you have to walk into the same room to find out your spouse is cheating in sims 4 since I hate that in sims 3 (I think 2 too) if your sim woohoos on the same lot the spouse just gets the feeling like "THERE CHEATING" and runs to them and accuses them.

[@girlynoob325]

I like these kind of videos! And I love your hair!

[@jvstice56]

Going to add to this in regards to the romances and Sims 4: I had the girlfriend of a Sim I had woohoo with another household. The sim ended up Very Angry, their romance dropped as a result of being jealous. With mod I use, the sim ended up being so jealous they caused their girlfriend to end up becoming very embarrassed. Ultimately, the Sims 4's relationship system is very barebones. All because the game was originally planned to be an online game until SimCity's failures made EA knee-jerk as they always do. Next time EA, MAKE A SIMULATION GAME OFFLINE! (It's EA, they want live services so they can rake in all the money)

[@nevereverr]

I LOVE your comparison videos!! Actually all your Sims videos

[@PleasantSims]

Thank you! So glad you like them!

[@crescentblueee]

The sims 3 cheating drama reminds me of that episode of Adventure Time when Finn is messing with the little versions of Jake, PB, Flame Princess, and Lady Rainicorn

[@Viniciusvill]

The Sims 4 needs a lot of improvements! But with the right Mods you can have fun playing!

[@evanjelia]

so excited to be this early!! we need more comparisons 😍

[@PleasantSims]

I agree Eva! Thank you for watching!

[@vegassims7]

I am new to your channel and love your content. DO you know of anyway to change having to use the Mid Mouse button for so much in sims 3? Its tough to have to use for camera work.

[@christopher1044]

That's what I've been waiting for😍

[@PleasantSims]

Thanks for watching Christopher! 💙

[@JanJan4Infinity]

Because I play Sims 3 mostly, I believe jealousy can be the same across the board for all sims unless they have a 'cold heart' reward where they don't get jealous if a lover cheats and/or dependent on the sims personality traits - so if they are a hot head like my sim she will throw hands no matter what and be all dramatic because of her dramatic trait and therefore call it quits before getting the reconcile option.

[@leaselmary_sims2189]

Compare kids. Sims 4 is good there, with their own little skills and aspirations and bonuses for good childhood, I love kids in this game. And the parenthood pack... it's good.

[@ourevilone]

Oh yeah you can hear people woohoo from downstairs. In college id have to listen to that all the time above me.

[@narcisoflores5207]

Yeah jalousy in the sims is fun, but what if I want my sims to have an open retationship without it, i think they should give us that option

[@Anna-qwerty]

I like your sims 2, 3 and 4 comparisons.

[@KisshuKisshuFUSION]

Your videos are always what brighten my day after stressful days!
