![]() ![]() It can be challenging to keep up with everything that goes on, especially during the night if your Sim is a natural early-bird. The rivalry between Guidry and Temperance (another ghost) is entertaining to watch and – spoiler alert – if you cheat and add her to your family she will sit and sulk in the bathtub in an Angry Mood for days on end. Paired with items from the Realm of Magic Game Pack and a few from Vampires, you can make a pretty convincing gothic castle, even if the roofing is still less than optimal. Inspired by the rich colours and detailed textures of the new house items, I decided to create a ridiculous castle for my family to inhabit, complete with a stony study and a visitors café. I ended up cheating and adding them both to the family simply because I felt like a terrible person for keeping them apart!īetween all this endless Woo-Hoo and smooching, my Sims did just about manage to enjoy the new items and activities added with the Paranormal Pack. I had love triangles spinning off in every direction, my Sims were Woo-Hoo-ing with ghosts and skeletons whenever they could, bypassing their basic needs to impress them. ![]() Now I don’t know if this was a fluke, but at this point I basically had a house full of the horny undead. Guidry, from the moment he appeared… was Flirty Pink. Ghosts, as you may know, change colour based on their current Mood. He’s a friendly chap, a Paranormal Investigator who can unlock an entire career path if you so choose. But then, Guidry appeared.Ĭlaude René Duplantier Guidry is a new character, a ghost who appears after a few nights of staying in a Haunted House Lot. I did make some pretty top-rate Sims and they literally live in a castle, so flirt away Bone-H. Within a single night she had managed to woo my male Sim into bed, and was well in the pink with both of the female Sims.Īlright, fair enough. She was aggressively pursuing all three of my Sims, doing everything from making flirty jokes to jumping into their arms. Once called forth, she will be fully able to interact with your Sims (although you can only add her to your household using cheats).įrom the moment she arrived, Bonehilda was overwhelmingly in the Flirty Moodlet. In order to summon Bonehilda, one must first reach higher levels of the Medium skill by interacting with the Séance Table. If you’re looking for other Maxis sim titles, try any of the SimCity games.Some of the less tolerant Sims may find her presence a little disturbing, having an animated skeleton wandering around in a maid outfit is probably not all that common, and it may give them a negative Moodlet, but her interactions with my Sims more than made up for this. Yes in fact, The Sims 3 can offer you a better experience. You can run this game on Mac OS and Windows computers. But modern corporate practices are probably responsible for the underwhelming game that is The Sims 4. It’s frustrating, because the team and Maxis / EA could have had a smash-hit here. How can this be? Did the developers not playtest the game? Do they not realize the camera is broken? ![]() If that weren’t enough, the most critical visual component in the game is broken: the camera. ![]() This is a legendary trait of any Maxis game, but this time it’s really something else. The loading screens take forever when you first start the game. While the game looks good and runs pretty well, it doesn’t really make up for the issues here. You don’t have to babysit them all the time, and while that might be good for some, it still takes away the player’s control. The avatars are now much more competent than they were in the last game. The whole point of the game is to have complete control over the life of the Sim, so why take any of that control away from the player? That was one of the most iconic things about the franchise up until now and it’s a curious thing to remove. You can’t make pools and you can’t toss your Sims in, remove the ladders, and wait for them to doggy-paddle themselves into an early grave. You can share creations of your with other players online, and the detail work that’s gone into some of the objects in this game is incredible.īut you could be forgiven for thinking that there should be more in Sims 4 than there were in any of the previous games. As ever, there’s a lot that you can buy for your Sims, from stove tops to guitars and everything in between. The premise is the same: create your avatar, build your dream house, fall in love, watch your children grow - choose your life. The greatest micro simulation game is back. ![]()
