Bring Back Sim Bio

I think they should bring back sims Bios. I see it as such a simple thing they could add to the game and it adds depth to my game. As a writer and creative soul I love to write their personal backstories and write them as I see them. It makes the sim I’ve created feel more alive and distinct. I swear when I use to write them I would notice my sim act more how I wrote them. I was probably just noticing things about them or what they did and would go “ yup that’s Jane”. Because I noticed all the quirks I gave her in my imagination. I think we as sim fans all are in a sense more creative and story tellers. So I just feel like having a sims bio and possibly their own story book like in the sims 2 is a right of passage. I don’t know how hard it would be for them to incorporate their own personal story books, but I think adding a bio in their simology would be fairly easy, considering all the things they have done to make the game better and it would add a lot of depth for story tellers. A simple add on that would make a difference. Anyone else agree?
  • I do think this would be a nice addition.

    As you said, while writing those out you already create part of their stories and it makes things more realistic.

    Also it would be nice to just have some more background information for each sims visible. I often rotate and then I sometimes forget what I had in mind for them. Or when going through the household manager, It would be nice to have more overview of what each sims in there is about. I'm thinking it could also include occupations and highest skills and such.
