Bring Whims back please
Wants and fears are not gonna be ok for me. I was so used to whims! Turning them off wouldn't be right for me, I just am connected to whims. Maybe make an option button to enable and disable whims an...
@TheMagnumWolf The wants and fears are just doing nothing but annoy the crap out of me. Like you said some are unobtainable, some simply won't register when you do what it says, and they typically don't seem like anything my sims would actually want. For example my sim with the Soulmate aspiration got the want to go steady with their romantic interest, then almost as soon as they went steady (which the want for that didn't register by the way) the sim had the want to breakup. It reminded me of an old Kids In The Hall skit where this couple gets married, then almost immediately get divorced just to quickly want to get married again. The Kids In The Hall is an old comedy show by the way.
I've had so many times where my sim would get a want to be friends with a specific sim, only for my sim to already be friends with them. Oh you mean you want to be friends with this person you're... already friends with? Well that's great... good luck with that! I also don't like being penalized for not doing something that should be optional. Oh no you didn't do this thing I wanted, how dare you! Don't even get me started on the fears. I swear my sim always has the same 3 or 4 fears that just won't go away, or even if they do they just pop right back up pretty quickly. I had one time where my sim conquered their fear of the dark, only for it to immediately pop back up.
It wouldn't be so bad if we could properly disable this stuff, but seeing as how the toggle option doesn't work even that is irritating. Even though there were whims that had similar problems, you could at least click them away if you didn't want to bother. Oh and the option to disable whims actually worked!
Let me add to this so everyone knows what is going on, because my sims still gets whims. This is the breakdown as of now, you get 1 broadcast whim, 1 want and 1 fear.
A good example is I have a want to view a piece of art that comes from my asperation, I also Have a want to flirt with a sim, that comes from my relationship panel, my sim is afraid of unforfilled dreams because that want of flirting with a sim is not being forfulleder or any sim wants/whims. The wants are whims are the same thing, except they just added the fear into one of them.
