Re: [NEEDS SAVES] Neighborhood Stories: Excessive deaths

First of all, accidental deaths have never happened until I downloaded Growing Together. And judging by other comments that "coincide" with the release of Growing Together, I'd say that it absolutely has everything to do with Growing Together. In all the years I've been playing this game, NONE of my Sims - and I play a lot of them - have ever had a friend die. There've been rare - and I mean "RARE", as in not losing 3 friends in less than 3 days - deaths of some elderly person here and there and a matter of inheritance. Killing off friends is something that should have been an opt in and not an opt out. 

Also not sure why you bothered to tell me I can get rid of the feature without thinking of telling me how? I know nothing about Neighborhood Stories or Manage Households. And no, I'm not stupid. After a couple of decades playing the previous franchise games and enjoying/knowing their gameplay, I've not had much interest in the weird/juvenile emotional stuff in TS4 or interest in understanding it. It's obviously geared for younger players who haven't been around through the other variations, which is fine by me. So now I have to do some Googling to find out what you're talking about.... I've helped a lot of Sims players throughout the years and was always happy to provide details...
