Sims 4 Hot Takes

Copious amounts of hot takes about EA and TS, strap in fuckers, it's gonna be one hell of a ride (she/her 18+) #justiceforts4basegame #simsrevolution

I take back the mental illness part, I don't trust the team to treat mental illness respectfully and responsibly.

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

Can we have fears in the sims? Social fears, fears of the ocean, fears of heights, etc. If not maybe give some rep to actual mental illness instead of just trivializing it as "erratic"

Got a god complex, lost it, became very depressed & anxious, started about four or five different medications to control my epilepsy and anxiety, moved out with a friend to a loft in downtown, got a job... Brought the mood down but the game came out when I was in middle school

[Lana @AverageSim]

Let’s make this a trend, what has happened in your life since sims 4 release?

I was 20 when it came out. In 2nd year of my degree. Since then I’ve finished med school, finished 2 years of internship, moved cities twice. Had 2 jobs. Lost my dog, got a cat. Came out as bi 😅

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

@BetterSims4 I like the idea of grim tossing a ghost ball into the air and it disappears, then the dog chases after it and disappears too. For cats it's one of those little fuzzy balls on the end of a stick

@Crosimmer Extra true when it's a livestream. Either way, I'm watching a sim burn themself to death because they didn't make enough salads before touching a stove

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

@Crosimmer Live as in *iv*y. Argue all you want but when someone's recording a let's play it do kinda be like that

[Ash 🚲🚉🚇🚍 @AshMeijer]

@Crosimmer I pronounce it leave mode because once I’m finished building I leave the game

[BiBot @biupdatebot]

Bi update: I'm super persistently bisexual.

Does anyone have one of those creepy hyper-realistic sims skins but it's just james cordon? On a totally unrelated note I also need a list of ways for sims to die. Maybe some mods that add extra ones would be cool.

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

Okay seriously can we please get the ability to cover the ears when we have some hats. People that wear beanies and don't cover their ears with it should be thrown in a pig pen

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

@TheKixg I'm not personally physically disabled, but I think it's good so people can put themselves more into their sims if they're playing as theirself. But with mental disabilities/mental disorder type stuff should never be touched by the ts4 team, no one wants the "erratic" treatment

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

Same goes for the chin, can't really change the shape or anything so I have to really on bad presets that have a slightly different shape but still doesn't do it right.

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

The nose slider needs some real bad fixing, the "nose bump" just makes the nose look curved outward without actually curving the nose down. Can't make myself for shit, huh?

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

@plumbellayt The "your yous" is kinda just a dumb way of saying "your sims", the beginning part makes no sense at all lol. Who proofread this??

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

@spellcastersim I personally hate the idea of them, but I would 100% put my money on the fact they are selling well. If they weren't, Maxis wouldn't keep pumping them out. That and they're additions to the game that are only 5$ instead of like 15-30 or whatever

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

Let's be honest, Sims 4 sims don't actually look that great. In comparison to Sims 3, sure they're a sort of improvement, but they're still really bad and in some places worse than the others. I always have to have like 5 skin mods on to make the sims look decent

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

@Crosimmer Separated clothing in all categories, as well as a separated shoe section; weight slider/body sliders in general; sims 4 building tools. Other than that I'd be extremely happy for a remaster, sims 2 has my favourite gameplay (and honestly sims style too imho)

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

To add onto this, please make it so that the "lean" skin overtakes the entire weight slider until the last 1/5. Bones do not show that easily on people that have a healthy weight, nevermind people who weigh more.

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

Dear Sims 5 designers,
Don't make the "lean" skin look emaciated and boney, it promotes a really unhealthy body image and really messes with people who have bad image issues already. I come to the sims to live through a fake me, I don't need to see what I hate about myself on it.

[Sims 4 Hot Takes @SimsBase_Game]

Let me control the Damn thing!!!!*!*!*
