Is this how natural living is supposed to work?

For 2 in game sim days my sim's needs go up to 100%. He hasn't needed to sleep, go to the bathroom, bathe, eat, socialize, or fill his fun level. He has natural living skill at level 4.

Is my game bugged or is this how natural living is supposed to work?

    I was not all wrong. It's both the plants and The Mastery Perks. The in The Zone Perk will make your sim's needs not decay. There's other Mastery Perks that will totally break your sim as well.

    Another sim totally ruined!

    EA Please give us the option to turn off the Mastery Perks! I'm going to select no on the mastery perks from now on, but it would be so much better if we had the option to disable them in the game's controls.

    I disabled it then my game crashed for the first time ever. I did a search we can only get 4 per sim. I have 4 picked out that do nothing with the needs. It's also the new plants that has the needs never decaying.

    It's amazing EA makes a game with game play, then takes away the game play. I like taking care of my sims. It has made me not want to spend any more money on the game. 

  • I always say no to the Mastery perks…… maybe if one of my sims was a genius in some area I might grant them one,……. But most likely not.  I also never buy potions that make it where they don’t have to sleep eat, use the restroom etc.   If a potion wears off I might consider it.

  • I recommend disabling EP18 (Business & Hobbies), this pack is totally broken.  I had to do that back in June because I couldn't build anything, the gameplay was glitchy & hidden skills & traits was totally off.                        After I disabled the poor pack, I was able to build, save & play my Sims 4 again.

  • I figured out what was happening. It was the new plants, the electrical and the aura petal ones. I had all 3 new plants in my greenhouse and my sim didn't have to take care of their needs. I still have the emotional plant but that's only effecting their emotions. 

    Unfortunately, I deleted the first sim but figured it out on a new sim.
