Thanks to @magick-and-sims for tagging me! Soooo...
age you started playing Sims?
12. I was far from home, my birthday was upcoming, and then I noticed TS2 Open for Business DVD on the shelf. So my granny bought it to me as a birthday gift, not realizing how meaningful it was.
Two, actually. The first is Matthew Hamming. I never played him in TS3, but when I tasted TS4 I recreated him to explore the acting career. And guess what? It lead to a big story I'm still writing.
The second one is also from TS3, Elvira Slayer. I played her for a bit, and then the game turned to a buggy nightmare. Luckily @thesimtraveler recreated her in TS2, I started the legacy with Elvira and... did you guess? Yeah, I also brought her to TS4.
I even developed Elvira's backstory and now I'm playing her as an ordinary human teenager called Elene. She's living her best life full of family drama, not suspecting a thing coming. It also worths a story I'm slowly writing (in English, there's no even Russian drafts).
the first family you ever played?
The Burbs in TS2. It was a real disaster: John got a business of -5 level, Jenny was pregnant again, they had to sell household things to survive, and little Lucy having just two days to her birthday was taken by social worker. Yeah, that was my trial run of The Sims game 😈
first expansion pack you ever got?
Open for Business, as you see. I tried lots of business, but the most successful was the following scheme:
Buy a community lot with open\closed sign.
Ask some sims for a date on this venue. Flirt, woohoo and so on, but never flip the sign to open. Your business level will grow just by increasing relationship with the “customers”.
Grab all the Cash business perks, total of § 83 500.
PROFIT! Now you can start real business.
This way works just for TS2, I wanna know if it's possible in TS4 😏
things you would like to be added to the game?
CARS, gimme cars! And color wheel like in TS3, and more detailed animation like in TS2. God, the developers become even more lazy with each new game...
TS2: Strangetown. I love its mysterious vibes, and Vincund Curious x Circe Beaker is my dear miserable OTP.
TS3: Isla Paradiso. I just love sea and underwater beauty.
TS4: Tomarang and Evergreen Harbour. The first one is exotic and full of nifty details, and for the second... I just love industrial crap.
And of course Batuu. Batuu forever! ❤️️
Maybe High Maintenance, I am sometimes 🌚
what would’ve been your toddler trait?
Inquisitive, so I am still.
Aside of my favs Turbodriver (WW mod) and Pandasama (Childbirth mod), there are:
@sentate whose clothes I love sinse TS2;
@giuliabuilds and @ladychaos whose builds I overuse;
@simmireen and @starrysimsie for wonderful poses;
@lazysimmies, for vivid and diverse deco sims;
PlumbobKingdom, the creator of wonderful save file which I play over and over.
I tag @solorisa, @turgenevskaya, @the-usual-stories and anyone who wants to join. Have fun and happy simming!
