I'm still not sure which expansions I'd want first if they go on sale lol it would need to go on a mega sale if I were to buy more than one at once.
There is a dining out pack I might want because right now they can't even go out to restaurants. I think you can even own your own restaurant. My sim likes to cook, so.. that could be interesting lol
Then there is the University one... my sims are having children, it could be fun to send them away to college and be able to participate in that.
Then yes, vampires and other supernatural stuff would add a big change, but maybe I'll wait on that once the game gets stale to really make a big difference.
Oh, I also just noticed they let you build your own bundles, and you can get 28% off when you do that. One expansion, one pack, and one stuff. I wonder if that works with other sales to make it even cheaper in the future.

Now it seems silly that we have to pay just to see our sims eat out or go to school, but it's been like that since the very first game, so we shouldn't be surprised lol. The game has been out for years already though, you'd probably need The Sims 5 to come out first to see any significant difference.
I know.. it's so messed up lol but I can't complain too much because I got the base game for free... so I can spend a little money on expansions here and there, but they sure do need to drop the prices down. The game has been out for years already, why do old expansions need to be the same price as new ones anymore? Pssh lol
Very true! Some developers are that stingy with prices and discounts. And yet people still come to buy their games. I guess that's why. We just never win lol!
So, I have been using some mods in my game (I used modthesims).... One of them was supposed to reduce the chance of having a baby when you click on "try for baby" but so far my sims are 2/2 the first try LOL I wanted it to be more of a surprise when/if it happened instead of basically a guarantee each time. I guess it's not working or my sims are just too fertile.

LOL strong genes right there! Or maybe, just maybe, the mod is not working properly and must be updated. Either way, I've heard my friends talked about the many ways of killing a sim, so there's another option. (I sound so cruel lol!)
On my very first Sims game for the nintendo I had my character kill her mother that lived with her so I wouldn't have to listen to her bitch and bye stuff for her. LOL!
I found out I could empty a room out and have no windows and put a fireplace in there. I called her into the room and ran out and removed the door. Left her there to catch fire and die. ~smirks~
I still remember the time I kept making my sim pop out babies really quickly, and she'd just place them on the floor. A room full of crying babies. I think that she started a fire when she cooked, too

Exactly the stuff my friends told me about LMAO In that kind of setting though I thought the sim would die of hunger first before she caught the fire.

Are you playing The Sims or is that a chicken from Harvest Moon LMAO even eggs take a week in the incubator!
This is what makes games like The Sims fun actually muahaha!
It doesn't work to wall them in on Sims 2 cuz they throw down a black hole and manage to get out.
When I first started playing Sims 3, I couldn't figure out how to move the urn of a dead roommate from in front of the fridge so she starved to death. LOL
The Sims have come so far, but it's interesting that the characters are still not programmed to do a simple task like moving something out of the way of a more important goal lol!
I added more mods to my game... I got some command center thing so I can really mix things up.. It will kind of add story progression so the sims in the world will have babies and get married on their own, etc. It will also move elderly sims into retirement homes to make room for "fresh meat" LOL
There's a lot of funky stuff you can add... even male pregnancy, but I'm not going that far unless I'm really bored
Oh yeah, I forgot to mention... the toddlers in my game keep getting obese really quickly. The mod allows me to lower their "fat score" basically. I have no idea why it keeps going to 100 so easily. I don't overfeed them lol very bizarre, it might be a bug, but glad I have a fix.
Cool mods right there, heatherly. Good to know there's a Plan B when you're bored with the normal stuff lmao. Reminds me of how I used to play Stardew vanilla, then I found so many mods that completely changed the level of fun, and now I can't imagine playing without the mods.
Your sims' lives sound quite tough especially for the parents lmao!
lol yeah, those toddlers are a handful.. especially the "independent" one. She will say no to food and baths if the parents try to make it happen, but then she turns around and asks for it herself right after.
Thank you for the heads up (although I'm a little late)! Praying haaard the vampire expansion will be included in the sale lol. But then there's the concern of whether my laptop is strong enough to handle the game, ugh.

It was! But yes, definitely make sure you can run it first lol
this evening i'm trying to come up with some ideas for my new spooky island. i wanna start with the entrance. someone suggested putting plain panels up with campfires behind them to give the illusion of a dark yet eerie path. there's a place i can get the panels and i think i have the campfire diy recipe. however i need to work it around the moon that's hanging in site. i have it set so you see a full moon when you step off the dock. i think it would be creepy to make them go through a cemetary to get to my house which will be on the third level. if i do the panels on the whole island that's a lot of work. so not sure yet. depends on how cool it looks. lol!
Try this again... heatherly you ever play fortnite? if so did you like it?
Yeah, I played it a few years ago. I played it for a while at the time, but then moved on to other things. I'm not really into building stuff like I am shooting, and some people are super nerding out with the building to the point where it's hard to have as much fun or win after a while if you're not doing the same.
I had switched to playing a battle royale mode on CS:GO because there was no building involved lol
I made some new Sims characters... some witches. A male and female so they can be together one day because the randomly spawned Sims in the world are BUTT UGGLLYYY lol
