@Karritz I watched your Perfect Genetics, Gen 2, Ep 12 video. Quite a lot going on! Ghost stories, potion making, teaching toddlers, alchemy, music ... It was fun to see all these activities again. And :D at the toad disaster. An alien toad! Poor Carl. I'll be waiting to see how he solves his dilemma! ...Congrats to your graduates. ...Cute romance scene with Don. ...I like Mary's new home. Good starter upgrades. Nice house party. Everyone seemed to be getting on well. ...Thanks for sharing your sims' lives. I enjoyed the video. ?
BTW, I like your idea of skilling up sims to use later as townies. I recently made my own butlers and then set them up to be hired by my played sims. I like having more say in who actually shows up to work in my households even if I don't control them directly. Often, I need mods to tune gameplay for this to happen.
