[GRO] Liking Arguments & Malicious Interaction is Nonfunctional

Product: The Sims 4
Platform:Steam-PC
Which language are you playing the game in? English
How often does the bug occur? Every time (100%)
What is your current game version number? 1.96.365.1030
What expansions, game packs, and stuff packs do you have installed? Everything except 10 kits (latest pack being Growing Together)
Steps: How can we find the bug ourselves? Growing Together introduced the conversation likes & dislikes which aren't working fully as expected. In order to find the bug, create a sim who likes arguments & or malicious interactions. Go to live mode and socialise with other sims.
What happens when the bug occurs? So far, every single conversation likes & dislikes work as intended with the exception of those who are based on mean interactions ( arguments & malicious interactions). For example, when a sim dislikes physical intimacy (a friendly interaction) the other sim who preformed it on the will receive negative relationship points because they dislike physical intimate interactions like hugs. However, when a sim likes arguments & or malicious interactions (those are mean interactions) they would not enjoy receiving or giving those interactions to other sims (despite having those conversation topics listed as likes; they gain no positive friendship points from them or even an increase in the fun bar). I tested this with 2 sims who like arguments & malicious interactions and they both got angry from it rather than benefiting from it in any way (seeing how it's one of their likes and all).
What do you expect to see? I expect sims who like arguments & or malicious interactions (conversation topics) to gain positive friendly points when they receive mean interactions.
Have you installed any customization with the game, e.g. Custom Content or Mods? Not now. I've removed them.
Did this issue appear after a specific patch or change you made to your system? No

At first, I only tested the mean conversation topics (they don't work). Then I tested the other conversation topics and they work as expected.

  • With Sims 4 Growing Together, when Sims that both like malicious interactions perform malicious interactions with one another, their relationship value lessens. I assumed that they would both enjoy the interaction and their value wouldn't lessen at all. Has anyone else been experiencing conversation topic bugs?

    @nymphbun I hope I understood the issue correctly. I merged your post with another thread. Is this what you are seeing ? If so, please click me too on the first post.
  • I wonder if it’s a one to stay two to go thing… if either Sims dislikes a conversation topic, both get negative relationship. And by default Sims with no conversation preferences will dislike mean interactions.

    You say you tried two Sims that liked malicious interactions. Did you try setting them to interact with each other, or just try both of them interacting with townies?

    edit: never mind, apparently @nymphbun tested this and it still didn’t work 

  • I see this as well. I made two sims like arguments and argue with each other. They got a relationship drop and one even got a hurt sentiment.
