@nastyjman Again, thanks for allowing the freedom for companions, I feel it makes the challenge more fun than stressful when trying to complete both TL and companion aspirations =D
I'm at the early stages of my second Explorer and have found the whims a blessing and a nuisance so changing it to skills is a good idea. Plus my companion was getting annoyed with the repetitive romantic interactions xD
I don't have historical figures and such but I've turned Willow Creek into a European/mostly Parisian town and Oasis Springs into Arabian/Miami/deserty area. I also take screenshots outside the game file so it isn't just boring skilling and dates at the same places and for those I tend to download certain types of lots. I'll be sure to link the story when I complete the challenge, I have watched @Spacey72659 and I intend to read all about the Optimist soon =D
Sweet. Can't wait to meet The Explorer!
Changing the Whims came to me after playing my Seventh. He had the Childish trait, and I wanted him to act out like a brat. Also, for some reason, I had the Gardening aspiration for him. The Childish whims were infrequent, and most of the whims were gardening related. So I changed it instead to skills. The whims worked in the first few Time Lords, but by the middle, it gets messy because your Time Lord would have mastered almost all of the skills, which is also a factor of what whims they may take.
I also haven't played around with historical figures yet, but I did change one neighborhood into a western theme. I'll share the screenshot later tonight. It's really fun acting out, pretending to go back or forward in time. :smiley: @Spacey72659 gave me the idea to bulldoze neighborhoods and change them into a specific era.
As for The Optimist, I'm slowly working on his story. I'll try to write an episode tonight or this week. So far, I'm on my seventh, but I'm still on chapter two for my First Optimist.
