Disabilities in Sims 4?

There seems to be some discussions lately on Twitter about adding in different options for disabilities in Sims 4.  Even a few speculation videos on YouTube.  Overall the response has been positive and Sim Guru Grant is saying they are looking into it.

Well...um.

Let me put it this way...I think it's great that the Sims 4 team want to be able to include all sorts of possibilities into this game.  It's important for some people to have "someone just like me" to play.  It's great for telling a story.  If that's your thing.

See, I don't play very realistically.  My sims never age or die.  They all live quite comfortably.  My sims have stories but I don't share much.  I've tried to play realistic type scenarios and honestly it was pretty depressing.  I love the Sims world as it was created.  I love the lightheartedness of it.  I have enough worries in my own life and I don't want to bring that into my gaming.

If by some chance it's added, it's not something I will ever use.  It doesn't fit my play style.  Honestly, I don't think it will ever be added.  I'm not sure there's a big enough audience for it and let's face it they have to make stuff to please the majority of players.  I really don't feel I can make this sound as if it's not heartless.  That's not where I'm coming from.   We all play The Sims for our own reasons.  I like it as an escape.

I'd rather see things like University or a vacation expansion added because I'd get more use out of that.  I gotta say leave this area to the modders because they could probably do it better than anyone else.

Spring Cleaning

So my Sims game is a mess.  Oh it plays fine but I just have all sorts of stuff saved to it.  Lots of well, lots and lots of saved games that all seemed like a good idea at the time.  So what's a simmer to do with such a mess??

Damned if I know.  Though my latest greatest plan is to make yet another backup of things.  Then sort through the library and go from there.  My one thing that I'd like to do is to have one sim in one game and with the help of the Traveler mod play it as one big huge world.  That's already mostly the way I think of the game anyway.  I have lots that I've made especially for certain worlds.  Like an amusement pier for Barnacle Bay, a nightclub for Roaring Heights and a couple resorts for Lucky Palms and Monte Vista.

Honestly it's getting old fixing the mistakes of how this game thinks a world should be.  I hate that depending on the world certain lots get put in and I hate where the lots end up.  Plus it doesn't always make sense for every world to have the same kind of lots.  And it would put the store venues to better use if they go into the world they were intended for.  But but my versions since I like them better.  :)

And honestly again...I like building slightly more than playing.

Anyway, there's still five months or so before the release of Sims 4 and unless I see something that knocks my socks off, I'm still on the fence about it.  Looks like there may be some, really any news coming soon which would be nice.  But yeah, I'm still sticking with Sims 3 until something else looks better I guess.

So that is Plan 3820.44 for how I'm going play The Sims 3.  Success or failure???  Who cares?

Zuzi doesn't have the answer.
