Re: [OPEN] [GF] Celebrity husband acts like fan

No, it's  not normal in real life for a wife or husband of a celebrity to faint, ask for autographs,  or position themselves among the paparazzi and scream at the sight of them lol. Not normal at all.

    I'm adding this as unsure. Strongly leaning towards this being feedback but let's see how many people are bothered by this.

    @crinrict I think it's just odd...my sim's husband had a whim to "introduce himself" to his celebrity husband. They're fully maxed on friendship & romance and have a kid. If they don't know each other from all that, I don't know what I can do for them. XD
  • I've made a (mean) celebrity sim publicly abuse a sim she hates (hatred is mutual), only to have her queued actions interrupted...by automated 'fan' actions from the sim-who's-being-berated.  😮  No, no, it's not normal to hero-worship a despised celebrity who's been screaming abuse at you in the middle of a big party, nor is it normal for the celebrity to smugly accept that worship.  It's not in accordance with the sims' emotional states, either.  It's hard to cancel the fan-worship, too--I try to X it out, of course, but the automated-actions delete my queued actions entirely, & the x-ing of the automated action doesn't always take.  I'm killing those sims off; the existing emotional system's too primitive to handle their relationship properly.

    They haven't programmed sims for complex relationships (full stop!), but especially not with sims they know who manage to become celebrities.  It's as if their celebrity-status wipes out the sims' knowledge of not only their relationship history (grew up together), but even the events of the preceding seconds.  It's possible that's an accurate portrayal of EA's viewpoint: celebrity status trumps all.

    eta:  yah, my celebrities' spouses do the hero-worshipping, too--even when the spouses are also celebrities!
