If they don't have vampires or aliens I'm going to be VERY disappointed. I love playing vampires in TS2 but the truth is that without my hacks they wouldn't be that great. So it's no wonder I was really hoping for TS3 to improve them. There's so many possibilities. Werewolves were a great idea too but they screwed it up so that would be another thing to improve in the new game.
Personally I love all the creatures and strange stuff. If they are only going to listen those realist people... well then.... you just gave me one more reason to not to buy the game. The reason why I enjoy games in the first place is because they can offer something which can never happen IRL. I see enough realism while living my daily life thank you very much. If you aren't forced to use the supernatural creatures I don't see any reason why they couldn't be there.
I would love to remake my avatar sim. He's mean but playful guy who has lots of friends and enemies so he would definitely be a mix of something like this:
Evil Brave Mean Childlish Good sense of humor Charismatic Party animal
Maybe. I'm in no hurry though. I'll wait so I can see the reviews and read comments from the actual players. My overall interest towards the sims has also decreased so I'm not sure if I bother to start all over again with a new Sims game. We'll see.
That's a bit strange but I do have noticed how their personality points don't work in a way we except them to. My hood is full of totally mean sims but they almost never start a fight with anyone but when some unfortunate soul (who have more nice points than them O_o) comes and does something negative, they won't leave that sim alone. And then this one totally shy sim is like one of the most outgoing sims ever. She's especially fond of my avatar sim and always tells him countless dirty jokes in a row. Pretty ridiculous because shy sims can't stand dirty jokes themselves XD.
I can't remember what was my first sim ever called. I mean in Sims 1. ... but in Sims 2 my very first sim I created was Aric Raven. And he's still alive .
Pets is fun for a while but then it just gets boring and annoying. It really forced me to download hacks to get rid off all those annoyances like insanely dominating pet wants. I usually avoid downloading hacks but with this EP installed I couldn't play it without them.
I admit that I don't even have BV and I won't get it because I have heard so much negative critic about it and I'm not even that interested about it. It seems to have a tons of bugs, it slows down your game and after a while it gets boring and you don't even want to send your sims to holiday.
Freetime instead has been very bug free and it's a very "easy" EP. I really like it how most of the all new features can be used without going anywhere. They are always available and you have a lots of options to choose.
But in the end it all depends of your own gaming style. I like to focus on my sims and Freetime gave them some more personal features. That's the reason why I like it.
Definitely free will on. They are much more amusing when they do things by their own. And if I played with free will off I would probably end up killing them by accident because I would of course forget them standing somewhere.
I love this game. It's very interesting to see how long it will take to make those bad genes disappear. Maybe I should try something like this in a future . sumpsychochic - Maddy indeed is really good looking for her first children. Mikayla instead... those lips :lol:.
lewisb40 - Indeed. I need to keep my eyes open in a future and stop them using telescope before wedding :lol:. digni7y - You can find it from here: http://www.rosesims.org/hair/rosehair_8.htm
