A remake of The Medieval Sims
Hello everyone! I wonder if there are those out there who think a remake or an upgrade of The Medieval Sims would be a great Idea. It would be an excellent idea if they could make a better version of the game to make it so fun for medieval theme lovers. Significantly, if they could remake the original sims to better game versions, I'm hoping they can do the same for the medieval one. I'm just pitching the idea out here, hoping it would come true. It might not work out, but it doesn't hurt to pitch in ideas and to say my opinion. I know there could be pros and cons anyone could see, but as someone who's a Sims player and loves medieval games and royal-like role-plays, I think it would be a fantastic idea, especially if there could be different classes in the game. I'm hoping to hear everyone's opinions on this idea.Persephone_Rose13 days agoSeasoned Newcomer53Views1like1CommentWhat did simmers do for Halloween?
I have had a fantastic Halloween season and it isn't over yet! Haunts, carving jack-o-lanterns, seeing Halloween decorations, Halloween parties, and another event tonight. I dressed as Barbie on Halloween day from morning til night (until I had to pack my costume for the flight home - but I'm bringing it out again tonight!) We listened to spooky music and watched spooky movies. The Sims 4 Halloween event has been so much fun, too! It has really added to the magic. I have so much loved being friends with Death and doing all of the tasks. It has brought out the bad in my sims which is fun!! Halloween really is the most magical time of year and I am so thankful that I was able to do so much with family and friends. I spent the last week with my family on the beautiful west coast and that is always the best time. I hope that everyone else had a wonderful season as well, and I would love to hear about it!LaunchSneezes7 days agoSeasoned Veteran37Views1like0CommentsThe Official The Sims Discord Server ( New Contest 10/14)

It was very disappointing to hear that there won’t be a Sims 5. I just don’t understand where this is all heading. Project Renee just looks like another sims game but not an UPGRADED one. I believe we need another Sims game but this time it needs to be better than all the other games. It needs to have something from all the games otherwise what’s the point? In my opinion The Sims 4 is so incredibly boring. It’s a cash grab and if anything the game is actually just a building simulator. Also, not making a newer, better game because of this reasoning- “we would hate to make players start over” is just pathetic and lazy. We have said for so long that we need something like The Sims 3, the Sims 2 and most definitely not another boring cash grab Sims 4 but me and many others see that our pleads and our suggestions aren’t being heard. For me if the new Sims game isn’t better than all of the other ones then I’m done. Im going to just play and devote my time to InZoi and Paralives. Those developers seem to actually want to listen to the player base. I’ve been a Sims fan ever since Sims 2 came out. I’ve played all of the Nintendo games, the PlayStation games and after I got a PC I started playing Sims 3 then the Sims 2. I saw and experienced how much better the other games were despite them being older. Im sorry for this being a negative post but, if it’s not then are you guys ever going to listen?Tinyfishy242 months agoSeasoned Newcomer110Views1like0CommentsPerfect The Sims 5 Base Game
When I first time played the base game of The Sims 2, I was so excited and happy, because I've been thought that almost all the functions of The Sims and its expansion packs are in the base game of The Sims 2. Please make the future base games of The Sims franchise contain every basic and important function and object as much as possible. Not many, but at least one.Yongming8282 months agoSeasoned Observer1.1KViews0likes25CommentsMy perfect Sims 5

I even love the Bleh! Seriously if they had the cape thing Bela Lugosi did I'd love it all the more. I would have loved it if they had brought back the Vampire specific Eclipsing Fog from Sims 3 but I would have had that fog protect the vampires in daylight. https://images.sftcdn.net/images/t_app-cover-l,f_auto/p/b17aa0d4-99eb-11e6-8ee3-00163ed833e7/47541037/the-sims-3-seasons-screenshot.png The Veterinary Clinic - Illnesses and injuries Holidays, Event Planning, Holiday Traditions all were fabulous - Do that again Loved the clubs those were great The variety of fairs and cultural festivals - Sims 3 did the seasonal festivals better by far but variety is the spice of life and exploring other cultures is quite fun. The food selections were good and adding them to the potential restaurant menus was a good idea Separating Cooking from Baking - Baking should have been a base game skill. The Restaurant Menu - this was a nice touch. It just needed to be tweaked so courses came out properly. Being able to add to the menu and setting it to create restaurants with different cuisine is always the right thing. Lot Traits - I hope in future they have strong impacts for lots this can help make visiting different lots more unique. Hats separate from hair The Voice Modulation Spa Day was great - Everything about it was fabulous ESPECIALLY after you added Manicures and Pedicures. https://simsvip.com/wp-content/uploads/2015/07/18706277654_7ab4a4fdcc_o.png Setting the holiday decorations for the outside with the little decoration box Setting the phones ring tone Trimming the Tree The multiple outfits one can plan in the different types of clothing The Pipe Organ.

Have been trying to find a link to the old Sims forums site (to link an old story thread to a new one), but when I type in the address I had for it into my search, it now only brings up the new forums site. Have tried typing everything I can think of that used to bring up the link, but nothing is bringing up the old forums. Has the old forum site been deleted? I understood that it was going to remain online but just as 'read only.' It would have been nice to just be able to look back on it as an archive. Just wondered if anyone else is having the same trouble? (Also why have most of the avatars turned into silhouettes?)WhatCobblers2 months agoSeasoned Vanguard102Views2likes5CommentsHow about redirecting dead 5 resources to 3 revival and fixing?
Just that. The Store is right there still operating like the economic, legal tender and royalbovine. Waiting to keep going and pick up where it left off. The next iteration doesn't have one of those does it eh? Eh? And, and and and and, we have the biggest demographic. The greys. We far outnumber the others. The thanks they (3 creators) and we ought to get with the run-on computer sales created when everyone was like "I need more RAM!" and others were like "graphics card! processor!"...just more more more ahhhh! My son, who does some kind of computer science says its not the graphics card, or the RAM, and didn't say what, but then my brother who doesn't do anything says its the RAM ... anyway, everyone got bigger and better computers because of it. And then it needed all o' those mods ... does it really need all of them? They did make too many babies and divorce, cheat and leave town and what not too much before nraas SP, and then there's the times they get stuck at the diner in Riverview and under the foundations at La Simla China. Things like that got sorted by patches in Sims 2 though. I wonder why not in 3. I will get back to my study ... But first. I'm serious! I don't know how this works online I've only done a paper one 20 years ago. Someone else is welcome to set it up :) Maybe they have a checklist that mobilises resources like that, similar to when surveying a disaster zone, but instead of directing them to that other one, if enough show interest with a petition, within the checklist time period, they might send it, the time, money, people and effort, our way, to 3. Revive and fix 3! New Expansion for 3 with an extra-attentive patch! And a BBS.

IF The SIMS decides to do conjoined worlds, to allow SIMS2 Worlds to exist beside SIMS 4 Worlds, etc. I would like an option with our EA accounts to enter the CD KEYS from older versions and the CD Keys for all the DLCs so we do not have to re-purchase. We have an entire bookshelf here of SIMS titles and all the DLCs. I think we even have our four copies of SIMS ONLINE still.ttuthill2 months agoNew Traveler11Views1like0CommentsA Sims Movie? What Would Entice You to Watch?
A Sims Movie is in the works. With the Sims being as open ended as it is, it's hard to guess what the movie would be about. They've confirmed that it's going to be live action, not Sims 4 art style CG, but that still leaves a lot of room for conjecture. I've made a list of possible features. Which of these would spark your interest in the film? Which would turn you off? What features have I missed? A focus on Sims Lore (e.g. the central plot revolving around Bella's disappearance in Sims 2) Some references to Sims lore (e.g. including pre-mades as supporting characters).THIS HAS BEEN CONFIRMED: Freezer Bunny is coming to the big screen. The central character realizes that their world is an idealized simulation and must learn to navigate the real world (e.g. Barbie) The central character realizes that their world is a bad simulation and escapes to the real world (e.g. Truman Show) The central character realizes that their world is a simulation and uses this knowledge to achieve a goal of some sort (e.g. Free Guy) The central character is a human who is transported into the game (e.g. Tron) The central character goes on a Wizard of Oz style journey through the different worlds in the Sims 4 in search of . . . something. This could be combined with options 4, 5 or 6. Maybe the character is in search of a way out. Maybe the character is in search of a cheat code that will solve some problem that they have. The central character must save their world and their loved ones from imminent destruction by game-breaking bugs (e.g. the Langoliers). A focus on a particular play style (e.g. romance play, family play, level-up skills/career play) A focus on a particular pack. THIS HAS BEEN RULED OUTBissenNess2 months agoSeasoned Hotshot124Views1like13CommentsMy Ideas for The Sims 5/Project Rene
A letter for EA Games and their Chairman: I have made several petitions detailing how the company of EA Games is to be run. Most of the petitions of mine you have not followed, I shall give you one last chance. For The Sims 5 (or Project Rene), here's the demands: Don't make the game online only. It makes the game impossible to mod. Plus simmers want to mod the game like previous games. I will allow premade households, as long as they are playable. These premade households must (but not only) include: Goth family (with adults as Victor and Gretle Goth, with Frida and Gunther Goth as their children) Crumplebottom family (with adults as Simon and Prudence Crumplebottom and Cornelia and Agnes Crumplebottom as their children) Bachelor family (with adults as Milton and Enriqueta Bachelor and Simis Bachelor as their child) Williamson family (with adults as Henry and Gina Williamson and Jocasta Williamson as their child) Landgraab family (with adults as Kermit and Kitty Landgraab and Chester Landgraab as their child) Caliente family (with adults as Nestor and Dulcinea Caliente and Tango and Flamenco Caliente as their children) Mango family (with adults as Domingo and Georgia Mango and Katrina Mango as their child) Lothario family (with adults as Carmelo and Mama Lothario and Nicolo Lothario as their child) Fiorello family (with adults as Primo and Isabella Fiorello with Adriana Fiorello as their child) Burb family (with adults as Benjamin and Susan Burb and Brad Burb as their child) Marsh family (with adults as William and Anastasia Marsh and Tiffany Marsh as their child) Pleasant family (with adults as Les and Kynda Pleasant and Jeff Pleasant as their child) Danders family (with adults as Marshall and Melinda Danders and Diane Danders as their child) Oldie family (with adults as Myron and Irma Oldie and Herb Oldie as their child) Ruggbyrne family (with adults as Bruno and Mamie Ruggbyrne and Coral Ruggbyrne as their child) Broke family (with adults as James and Abigail Broke and Flat and Buck Broke as their children) Lincoln family (with adults as George and Elissa Lincoln and Flo Lincoln as their child) Rees family (with adults as Olivier and Jasmine Rees and Mary Lu Rees as their child) Newbie family (with adults as Bob I and Mags Newbie and Bob Newbie II as their child) Simovitch family (with adults as Vadim and Fatima Simovitch and Betty Simovitch as their child) Dreamer family (with adults as Dalmar and Dacia Dreamer and Davis Dreamer as their child) Darong family (with adults as Sef and Lina Darong and Delilah Darong as their child) Matlapin family (with adults as Amar and Isabelle Matlapin and Omar Matlapin as their child) King family (with adults as Henry and Olive King with Mariana King as their child) Those are all in my demands list. I will be watching what you will do with the new game. Should my demands be ignored, a disastrous boycott to the game will occur.corymach72 months agoSeasoned Newcomer38Views0likes1Comment
