A week on The Sims Forums

Sul Sul my lovelies! 

We’ve finally made it to another Friday, and it’s almost time to start winding down for the holidays. For those of you celebrating Thanksgiving next week, have you already got your meal planned out? Are you more of a turkey or ham kind of person? And more importantly, how do you feel about the season’s most divisive dish - green bean casserole? (It’s my personal favorite 🙃)

Before we dive in, let’s catch up on the news from this week:

  • On Tuesday, the MySims Cozy Bundle finally launched for both Xbox and PlayStation. If you’re looking for a relaxing way to spend your weekend, be sure to pick it up here!

Time to get started on this week’s highlights! 

  • To celebrate this week’s console launch, simgirl1010​ is hosting a new MySims Cozy Bundle Giveaway! This giveaway is for both Xbox and PlayStation so if you want to enter, just share which console you play on and what region you’re using if you’re on PlayStation. This giveaway is open until Tuesday, so be sure to enter and best of luck to everyone! 🎮🎮🎮

  • We all love to get lost in a good gameplay story, and Lesamith​ is in the process of writing up a brand new legacy narrative, but is looking for a bit of your input first. They’re specifically wondering what kind of stories you love to read - do you prefer short and sweet, with screenshots telling most of the story, or would you rather read longer and more detailed chapters? And would you rather see in-game screenshots of the action, or do you like more realistic looking AI renders of Sims? Be sure to share all of your story reading preferences with us to help make this upcoming story as exciting as possible! 📒📚

  • For this week’s build, we’re highlighting this breathtaking rustic style Alpine Ranch, created by Le_Slacker​. This spacious 64x64 ranch includes a beautiful country home with 2 bedroom suites, a game room, an indoor spa and sauna, and a covered wrap-around porch leading to a gazebo and large pool area. This estate also has several impressive outdoor features including a large horse barn and training yard, a small corner garden and even a fenced in duck pond. This lovely ranch is the perfect place to play out all your country living dreams, so be sure to take a look! 🏇🏽🏇🏽🏇🏽

  • Up next, we have a gameplay story written by gidget1234​ for the forum’s newest eligible bachelor, Theodore Ito Scott, as he begins a Romantic Elimination Competition in search of his soulmate. This week, 8 fantastic women join him in Del Sol Valley and begin competing for his love and attention under the watchful eye of Theodore’s dear Aunt Nanami (and let’s be real, she’s the real star of this show). So which girl will be crowned the winner? What kind of hot gossip will Aunt Nanami uncover with her listening device? And will dinner ever be served on time? Make sure you tune in to find out! 💖💏

  • Let’s wrap our week up with a new version of an old classic thread - Sims 4 Random Thoughts, created by Ellupelluellu​. This is the go-to spot for all your random, unorganized and spontaneous Sims related shower thoughts, from pointing out strange in-game notifications to sharing your Sim’s super embarrassing holiday sweater outfit 🫣 So feel free to drop in and spill all your chaotic and scattered thoughts with us - the more unhinged the better! 



And with that - I hope you have a wonderful weekend, stay safe and happy Simming 💚

Till next time!

    As for Thanksgiving I'm a ham and turkey girl. 😄 And all the sides. Green bean casserole is one of my favorites also and I make it from scratch. No can of mushroom soup or canned green beans. Heavy cream, fresh mushrooms, and fresh green beans. Also bacon. 😋

    I usually have turkey for Thanksgiving, and I'm not that fond of the green bean casserole.

    And congrats to the people who were mentioned!

  • Thanks for another weekly update and congrats to those mentioned.   I have to admit I have never had a green bean casserole but would happily accept an invitation to try. LOL   Actually never got to have thanksgiving dinner this year (Canada) but hope to make up for it at Christmas.  

  • More great highlights! Congrats to everyone mentioned and have a great weekend all! 😀
