Lifestyle Feedback Redux
I fear that around the time Snowy Escape came out I gave y'all some very frustrated feedback on Lifestyles. My general feeling was that they were too easy to get, impossible to get rid of (I had 4 an...

Community ManagerI love the Homebody/Party Animal idea! Homebody would pair really nicely with the Indoorsy and Single & Lovin' It Lifestyle, and would be very beneficial for busy Sims who only have time for work and chores around the house- which I find is a pretty common for my normal gameplays. Party Animal would work great with some of the Get Together mechanics as well.
I could see the Occult idea working well with Strangerville as well- an Anxious Lifestyle and the Paranoid trait would be the perfect recipe for that little bit of chaos that I love so much in my gameplay 😋
For a family Lifestyle, we do have a lot of family themed traits, like Hates Children and Family-Oriented so I think a Lifestyle could just expand a bit on those buffs.
For me personally, I'm just still loving Cottage Living and Cats & Dogs so much, I would really love to see some animal themed Lifestyles!
I love Cottage Living and Cats and Dogs, too. In the starter save I'm setting up (with my favorite households past as townies) SO MANY of them have pets. If people ask me for must-have packs, I always say Seasons, Cats and Dogs, and Parenthood.
(Yes, I'm an occult player. We're family-oriented occults around here! Even Vlad has kids in my save!)
I love the Strangerville tie-in! I think Strangerville is an underrated pack and love it. Of course, I'm also very fond of Texas and New Mexico (my sister lives in NM). But I love the storyline, and I love the small town west Texas/Four Corners vibe. Anxious Lifestyle + Paranoid + Strangerville... :D
And homebody/party animal, yeah, my Sims are homebodies. They do join clubs, but whenever they get those "do you want to hang out tonight?" calls and say yes everyone stands around playing games on their phones because they're fuddy-duddies who have work and school in the morning. 😉
I do know that y'all have Family-Oriented and Hates Children. I just worried that the behavior one would have to engage in to EARN a "hates children" type lifestyle might be too much of a downer? Then again, Mean Sims can "crush dreams" so... maybe I'm just too sentimental, lol. I mean, I made evil Vlad a good parent. 😉 (He can have layers!)
Hmm. Animal themed. Hmm. I suppose if your Sims only interact with animals they could earn the Crazy Animal Sim lifestyle, which helps them gain relationships with animals faster (including those birds, rabbits, and wild foxes). What's the opposite of that, though? Allergic? 😉 Running around talking about how unhygienic it is to let animals into your house?
