What different traits would you have added to the game if you could?

I love the traits, and I wish there were so many more! Unfortunately, I have read it is extremely difficult for custom traits to be made. I also know that some were added with EP, like the Star Performer (I don't have that EP yet)

I was thinking and I wish there were things that you were gifted at specifically, like great singer (or perhaps tone-deaf could be another one to counter it), or great dancer, drawer (As opposed to artist. Or maybe the artist trait could have the option of choosing what sort of art, like painting, clay, drawing. Maybe they could have the option to sit down and sketch?)

Some social traits could be like pathological liar and "always has to be right". Haha I think those would be hilarious.

  • What a great thread

    Maybe “oddball” which would involve them rolling random wants that don’t make much sense.

    Maybe “terrible cook” someone who burns and makes bad food more often, but get a special Moodlet when they do cook something decent

    "Bubbly" - a trait I would have given my selfsim. I get all kinds of random thoughts that I just have to share. Especially when I'm overtired.

    Oh, and for elders there should be traits like "telling pointless stories" and "falling asleep randomly". :lol:

    "Blunt". You have a mouth. Use it. ^^
  • I feel like there should have been an Outgoing trait. I know there is the Social Butterfly trait, but it characterizes sims as liking everything to be about them, center of attention, etc and it is the opposite of the Socially Awkward trait. There is a Shy trait, and I think someone can be outgoing (just good at making conversations with strangers to make friends, network, etc) and not necessarily have everything be about them.
  • Good question! I don’t know, really. I’m fairly happy with the traits we have now. Although I wouldn’t say no to any more silly traits, however. I love giving out chaotic traits to sims and unleash them upon the unsuspecting populace. Always gives me much entertainment :D

    I do love the Shy trait though. I’m very shy myself so I tend to give my sims that trait. :p

    A Shy/Jittery trait, that would make your sims a bit socially awkward and shy. :)

    We already have Shy (LateNite) and Socially Awkward (Uni) as traits in TS3. Possibly you are missing the required EPs or playing a different version of the game like TS4 if these are lacking?
  • @Amphora :love: Me too,use that trait so much just to see the adorable idle animation they do around strangers.Cutest animation in the game.
