@peno11 - I can relate. I started ages ago with The Sims Bustin' Out on GameCube. I have Sims 1, Bustin' Out, Sims 2, Sims 2 Pets, and The Urbz on GameCube. Sims 2 Castaway on PS2, Bustin' Out on GBA, Sims 2, 3 & 4 for PC, and Sims 4 for PS4. Loooong time Simmer. The weird quirky humorous stuff has been a staple of the series, and having literal living rabbit-like dust bunnies falls right in line with that. Plus, they're so cute and harmless, I actually feel bad on the rare occasions I need to stomp them. Normally, I just let them vanish when I vaccum. Not long ago, a guest fed one and I was left with no choice. Most of the hate for the Kit comes from people that haven't played it and don't understand what it's really about. They just see the item list and think they're getting ripped off paying $5 for half a dozen vacuums. Same superficial hate happens for Batuu. People misunderstand what it is. They gripe about not being able to use the force and stuff like that, but Batuu is an immersive role-playing amusement park for Sims to vacation at, not an actual space port in the Star Wars universe.
- simsplayer8182 years agoHero@iamsweetmystery That's interesting about Bust the Dust. I had a different idea in my head about it. So can I ask in households that don't have the vacuum cleaners do they remain kind of unaffected by dust, etc? Like with Laundry Day where there's no laundry without Washers? I might change my mind about it.
I absolutely adored Sims Bustin Out. I've played them all on PS/PC/Xbox but Bustin Out was my favourite and when I got Basement Treasures and saw the heart shaped bed in pieces I thought noooo, old friend what have they done to you?- iamsweetmystery2 years agoSeasoned Ace
@simsplayer818 - No, it's a universal effect, but the maintenance is pretty easy and there are 3 upright vacuums at different price points, plus 2 handheld vacs. Every few days each storey of the house gets dusty depending on how heavily it's used. With a vacuum cleaner in the Sim's inventory, you click a spot, and after a few in-game minutes of running it, the whole level is cleared of dust and any dust bunnies you haven't befriended. It's not a high maintenance thing at all. The vacuums can also be upgraded with various features like never needing to be emptied, and butlers and maids will also sweep for you. Even if you don't have a cleaner, you can still pick up and throw away dust piles and stomp bunnies, and all that will be left is a faint layer of dust. Dust accumulation can also be turned off in the options settings if you want a break from it.
Side note: I only ever played Bustin' Out on GameCube and GBA but what was awesome was they could be linked via cable and you could port your GameCube character into the GBA version, have a whole different adventure, and any Skill Points you gained in the GBA version would stay with the Sim when you ported them back. Great for Skill grinding to make Careers easier in the main game.
- simsplayer8182 years agoHero@iamsweetmystery Thanks so much for the info. I think I'll be looking at adding it sometime and giving it a try when I'm ready for a new little challenge in my game.🐰
