- Sims no longer receive a ""Break-Up"" Want when they have a High Romantic Relationship with that Sim.
Fixed in Patch 1.108.289/1.94
Please create a new thread if you're still experiencing this issues.
I'm currently having the exact same issue.. I wasn't sure if it was a bug with Growing Together, but since this post is from a month ago, I'm assuming that's not the case.
Was there ever a fix for this issue? I've added a few screenshots from my game as reference.
There is also no "fell out of love" indication anywhere, despite the descriptor text saying otherwise. Also, they have full relationship with one another, so I really have no idea what the issue is..
It makes me kinda sad to see it whenever it pops up, and I would love if there was a way to fix that so it stops popping up all the time.
@lamebabe Unfortunately I never found a solution to this problem and currently I am playing my game right now totally different sims they just moved in together have been living in their new home in the new world since a week after their high school graduation and once again the break up with want has popped up 🙄 I’m just ignoring it but it’s really sad when it says they fell out of love but have full relationship bar and then one of their other wants is to get engaged
I think this is another unintended consequence of their not making the new wants & fears system backward compatible. If you create Sims with traits and likes that are from anything other than base game or high school years, those traits/likes become unavailable for the wants to pull from. So they'll be left with listen to music - something a lot of people complained about appearing too often - and the handful of situational ones they made. The description says "from being romantic partners" - so if you have Sims that are romantic partners, this want gets added to the pool of possible wants. And when it rolls your wants randomly pulling from the pool of possibilities, and that pool is shallow...
Other than the location low need wants (read a book at the library, sleep when exhausted, etc) the only wants I ever saw on non-base-game Sims before turning wants & fears off were "listen to [type of music]" and then either "flirt with" every random acquaintance they met if not in a relationship or "break up with" if they were.
@PipMenace I have noticed that the listen to music want pops up a lot as well, but i found a small solution to that one is that i just don’t let them like any type of music and it seems to come up less. That’s a shame that these wants are tied to the whole wants and fears system, so the only way to make them stop is to basically turn wants and fears off all together? That’s frustrating because I like to play based off my sims wants and skills. I hope that will be looked into by the next patch because I can’t turn wants and fears off
