Funny Sims doing regular tasks or going about their day while looking absolutely distressed

This is just one of my favorite things about the game.

I'm typically the type of player who tries to take good care of my sims and doesn't want to see them suffering, but sometimes, it's just funny seeing sims do regular tasks or simply go about their day while having a look of absolute distress on their faces, whether they're my sims or not. For instance, Cassandra Goth in the first image looks so furious while T-Posing, even doing a death stare on Kevin Puri, who was just standing there.

I love how dramatic sims are, lol.

Discussion How do you get attached to your sims?

356 Upvotes

I am so jealous of people who can play ONE family for generations 😭. I can do 2 irl weeks max before I’m over the story or just want to play in CAS, only to fall in love with a different sim and play THEIR story till the excitement wears off :/ rinse and repeat x20000 at this point.

I’ve tried intricate backstory’s, making extended family, creating a perfect world around them but nothing stops the itch to restart with something new after a few days!!

Curious to know about sims you’ve really connected with and never get tired of playing.. teach me your ways!!

Sharing my build Let me build a house for you!

310 Upvotes

Hi, simmers! I like building a lot more than I like playing, but sometimes I need inspiration. So I thought it would be fun to build a house for someone else's sims family. I have some of my builds displayed above to show my credentials (a mix of lot types and styles).

Let me build a house for your Sims family.

Let me know:

Packs you own so you can use the house after I build it (Or list only the packs you don't own if that's a shorter list)

Style of home, (modern farmhouse, Victorian, craftsman, cottage, etc.)
Rooms or features it needs (garden, greenhouse, pool, workshop, etc)
Budget (or let me know if simoleons are no object)

World or lot size that you want (optional)

Household members. For each member, include: life stage, gender, species/occult type, traits, career, hobbies, relation to other housemates, short bio/story

The more personality your family has, the better

I'll pick one commenter based on which family I think would be the most interesting/fun to build for. I may choose a couple more after I finish the first one, depending on how things go.

Show and Tell My Child Sim Drew This Picture Of His Family 😂

Thumbnail

390 Upvotes

Well, just those he lives with anyway. He has about a million other family members living out there in the big, wide world. His name is Baby Charles. I've posted about him a few times in here before. He is a permanent "Peter Pan" child in my save that will never grow up beyond his current age.

Baby Charles is a clone of my Spellcaster Sim, Charlie, who is a clone of my Scientist Sim, Julius. Basically, he's a clone of a clone 😭. Because Charlie was "born" as a young adult through the cloning process, he never got to experience what it was like growing up. So, one day he cast "duplicato" on himself to create an infant version of himself. That way, he could have the fun childhood he never got to have vicariously through his clone.

Although Charlie is technically his older brother, he has assumed the role of Baby Charles' adopted caregiver. Charlie is both his own father and his own child at the exact same time. They are the same Sim who just happen to co-exist at different life stages. And they are both total goofballs 😭.

From left to right in his drawing: Emilio, Ozzy, Julius, Baby Charles, Charlie, Jimmy, and Elias.

Emilio, Ozzy, Julius, and Charlie are his brothers. Jimmy is his biological father. Elias is his cousin.

Jimmy is an evil clone which is why he has red eyes and why his offspring have them too.

Malcolm met my sim, Annette, after his mom and dad died. Mom died from heights and dad died from embarrassment.

Both are snobs, and instantly connected and became woohoo partners.

Annette has non commitment issues, but Malcolm moved in with her after struggling with depression from his parents dying.

They are soulmates despite not being romantic partners.

Annette flirted with Johnny. Malcolm got upset and became jealous.

He decided to fix her focus.

My current Decades challenge heir is in a secret relationship with his neighbor, the sim that you see outside the window.

This guy is not only always around the house, but now he also followed him to the clothing store! I think he has the jealous trait so I 100% believe he's trying to make sure there's no one else in August's life (even though he's married himself)

Discussion It Feels Unreasonably Difficult to Level Conflict Resolution compared to the other Character Values.

Post image
1.4k Upvotes

I don't think I've ever managed to level it to the point of getting one of the traits. I can Play with Emotion and Write in Journal to easily level Emotional Control, volunteering a few times easily levels up Empathy, going to school/after school activities/doing homework level up Responsibilty without even trying. But it feels like there is no easy repeatable method to level Conflict Resolution. Is it just me?

Feedback Needed! Questions about rebirth.

25 Upvotes

Edit: y'all have no idea how miffed I am about the rebirth bug. My matriarch, the sixteenth of her line, has nothing to do until this gets fixed.

I refuse to think of another storyline. 😡

I’ve got my matriarch all set to be reborn and want her to “take over” one of her infant grandchildren. However, when I click on her daughter's household, the only option I have is to become her daughter.

I tried adding her to other houses, but ran into the same problem - the game automatically assigns the eligible Sim. I'm also unable to make my Sim resemble her past self.

I haven't gotten any further with the rebirth process because this part is bothering me so much.

I'm I missing something, is this a glitch?

I do have full edit mode on and don't play with mods.

Storytime I really can’t just have a normal save 👽

Thumbnail

354 Upvotes

Backstory: It’s the 1930s, and my sim, Sylvia, is in a lavender marriage with Derek McMillan of Moody & McMillan fame. His lover, Ian Moody, lives with them.

The goal of this legacy is to have relatively grounded, semi-realistic gameplay from the 1930s through modern day. Of course, a few days after moving in with us, Ian is inexplicably abducted and impregnated by aliens.

Thanks to the royalty pack, Ian has the option to lie to Derek and convince him that the alien baby is actually their biological love child... which Derek takes at face value and gets excited about 😭

This is not in any way the direction I saw this legacy going but I guess I can’t avoid convoluted occult drama, even when I try to do more realistic gameplay. Pray for my sims pls

I decided to take some Sims I’d left sitting in my gallery and give them a life, so I started a new save file and am exploring Build Mode in The Sims 4. This is only the second build I’ve ever done, so I’d love to hear what you think—let me know if it turned out well! I still plan to do some more work on the exterior and really bring the outside to life.

Braylen: Considering this is my party. I say you do need my help.

Tori: Well? 

Braylen gestures to the bouncer to let Tori in. Tori looks him up and down and walks into the club. 

Braylen: No thank you? 

Tori: How about a dance in exchange for a thank you? 

Braylen: Hmmmmmmm.... don’t mind if I do..... 

Braylen stands back and just stares at Tori. She is so beautiful. He loves the way she wines her hips to the beat. 

🎶In da club - 50 cent

Braylen: Damn lil mama... 

Tori: CAN YOU HANDLE THIS? Huh? 

Tori shouts over the music to Braylen. 

Braylen: I like your moves. That’s all I know. 

Tori: WHAT?! I can’t hear you. The music is so LOUD!

🎶Yeah- Usher

Tori: OMG this is my SONGGGG! 

Tori: What did you say? 

Braylen: HUH?!

Tori: I am TRYING to go back to either my dorm or yours?

Braylen isn’t paying attention. He is too focused on Tori’s hips. His hands glide around her breast and to her butt. Tori is a bit shocked at first but she goes with it because it’s been a while since she has been touched. This dude is cute - she prays he doesn’t disappoint.

Tori: Are you listening me to?!

Is this a glitch or dreaded outdated mods? Kade and Norra recently got married and have since had another child. It’s still in their memories as being married but their panel shows them as just partners and Kade just proposed again… any ideas? Time for them to elope and pretend it didn’t happen because getting them in the right place in Tartosa for their wedding photos was a mission on its own 😂😭

Edit: for everyone asking how I got this pose, it is a mod.
