      Nick Fernandez EXACTLY. Sims 4 was a huge disappointment unfortunately. But because my pc is outdated my sims 3 can’t run on it anymore, if it did I wouldn’t bother with sims 4 at all really..

      I really wish Sims 4 played like the love child of 2 and 3 (traits + good memory system + option to disable aging and story progression for non-played families). That would’ve been an unique take that also didn’t melt computers like the open world. 4’s the prettiest game, if only it had gameplay to back up its looks.

      I noticed this too when trying to drown a sim in the ocean (for storyline reasons). I thought maybe it was something to do with the ocean not being considered a lot, and that somehow messing things up so they can't randomly die in the middle of the sea. Maybe it's some weirdness with how routing works? Either way, their drowning moodlet can run out, but instead of dying, they just determinedly swim back to shore, and that's it.

    • @Sims234ArchiveGeek
      @Sims234ArchiveGeek 6 лет назад +1

      You see, Aliens were included in Base Game for TS2, Get To Work in TS4, but I think the reason why they didn't include Aliens in Supernatural was definitely because they had too much creatures for the pack: Werewolves, Vampires, Fairies, Witches, Zombies etc. The team also stated that they wanted Aliens in this pack because they are more considered on weather, rather than supernatural and that they are humans with Alien DNA and abilities so they are not occult like all other creatures are.

      Ik weet dat het in het echt kan, daar zit ik alleen in de Sims niet op te wachten. Het is irritant als je een moestuin hebt of visser bent en het het hele jaar door regelmatig vriest, in plaats van alleen maar in de winter. In de lente en herfst vriest het ook vaak, waardoor je eigenlijk maar 1 warm seizoen hebt. Ik had het handiger gevonden als het alleen begin van de lente af en toe vriest en het dan langzaam warmer wordt, en omgekeerd met de herfst.

    These reviews are extremely helpful! I'm so glad you made these because I've been trying to figure out which expansions are worth getting and until I saw your videos I was unsure of everything. Now I know exactly which ones are worth it and which ones I most definitely am not getting. TYVM

    How annoying is the sun on this expansion? Is it likely to see dozens of sims burning to death in a single day?

    • @evesene3226
      @evesene3226 9 лет назад +16

      Snoogen11 Nope! I've personally never seen a sim die from the burning, and you go inside for them to cool off and its all back to normal

      Ok thanks, that's the main reason I was worried about getting it. Because Sims for the most part are quite stupid.

    I just want to say thank you very much for making these reviews. You have helped me not waste all my money on the useless expansions. I recently bought Seasons, Generations, Ambitions and University Life (I already had Late Night) mainly because of your awesome reviews! Thanks dude!

    I can't believe he complained about the ocean swimming xD I always loved it the way it is and it's still better than what we have in the sims 4 :(

    Love this. You can't even imagine how many expensions you encouraged me to get! 50% of my sim fun is your reviews!
