at the start of 2021 I began an occult themed legacy challenge I designed š½šš§š½š§š½š§š¼
Iāve been tweeting about it regularly but I thought Iād also post about it here ! Iām on gen 7 currently but this blog is going to start at the beginning and catch up from there.
spoilers I guess, but here are the legacy challenge rules Iāve been following (subject to change after playtesting):
TS4 Occult 10 Gen challenge
the goal is to playthrough ten generations of occult and occult-oriented sims with family dynamics
I would suggest at least doubling the elder lifespan with MCCC so that you can have generations interact a bit more.
I'd encourage you to fill out the worlds (or find a save that has) and stay within the sim's home world for each generation
feel free to do multiple aspirations in addition to the one listed for those sweet reward store points
each generation has: home world (and a population suggestion), aspiration to complete, career, and skill focus
Gen 1: Non-occult sim infected by the Mother
Must have trait: male/can impregnate
Live in Strangerville and/or oasis springs (populated by aliens)
Scientist Career (save inventions for future gens)
Associate frequently with aliens on & off Sixam
Become abducted by aliens and have at least 1 alien baby via abduction
