BG Life stages: Smooth transitions and longer duration
Can we please have a better life stages? I feel like we have some clear points about them:
1) The incohesive transition from child to teen
2) The lack of difference between teens and elders
3) The good transition from newborns to children
Idk if the devs will give us preteens and better older sims gameplay (which i'd love), BUT i think the kid to elder life stages should be bigger, with minor stages that features some changes that prepare them to the next life stage.
Something like each of them during 2 or 3 sim years (independent of the lifeaoan you're on) or whatever makes more sense with real life, and each one of these 2 or 3 minor stages have differences:
- Kid 1st Stage: Get children skills
- Kid 2nd Stage: Get more interactions
- Kid 3rd Stage: Get partial facial/body hair
- Teen 1st Stage: Get normal skills and interactions
- Teen 2nd Stage: Get change on body shape + full facial/body hair
- Teen 3rd Stage: Get part time jobs
- YA 1st Stage: Allowed to marry
- YA 2nd Stage: Get full careers
- YA 3rd Stage: Take career branches
- Adult: ??
- Adult: Partial grey hair (only hairstyles)
- Adult: Back pain
- Elder: Wrinkles
- Elder: Full grey hair, beard and eyebrows
- Elder: Getting slow walkstyle
Somethings listed are just possibilities allowed at certain stage and others are rules, but they're all linked to the minor life stage a sim is on.
