I have been playing the game for a week and it is quite horrible in my opinion. Reading the entire thread, i respect the assets, that people are recognize to the "monster" but i think sims 3 is nothing more than a big fuss.
The thing that really makes me want to unistall the damn thing is the motives. They are dropping soooooo fast, that i can't nearly explore anything new. I have my female sim try to walk around the city or visit a house, but she is always screaming to go to bed. Althought, i have to recognise, that while she was pregnant her motives were better than if she was pregnant in sims 2 (not dropping so fast).
I know it has been mentioned before, but i hate, detest, can't stand (runninng out of words) the sims. For the love of god, who put "moonface" as a standar bone structure in CAS? Yes, there are people with round faces but there are not like that. When you make them lean and athletic, their heads are like photoshoped to their bodies. Basically i was addicted to Sims for 2 reasons. The first was building and decorating houses and the second was creating sims. Both are lost now.
There is also this social need, that infants, toddlers and children have that i could really use pescado's hack for them ( baby dinner). My sim couple, wakes up in the middle of the night or drop anything that they are doing in order to go and "pet" their spawn. I mean...... arghhhh!!!!
I had a really good laugh previously. My female sim was pregnant (i swear the woman is a rabbit, she has two kids and she gave birth to triplets), she decided to go for a walk in the park, but her waters broke. She went to the hospital and i was waiting for the father to follow, when i suddenly saw this
The husband run to the hosital with one of my toddlers and he stayed there until the woman gave birth. There was no reason to take the child cause there was a baby sitter. Has anything like that happened to you? It was funny!
Oh and an image of my daughter (yes the thing is a daughter)
I don't think that i am going to keep the sims 3 to my pc for long. The game is plain ridiculous. Maybe i will think about it, when a good expansion comes up or there are some cc, like sims!
