Re: Idea for a Future Update Having to Do with Likes/Dislikes Menu for Console

@AprilTheSimmer96 , I play on a PC, so the things you have to go through on console sound very tedious!  😞😥  Also, I don't know if there is a difference between PS4 and Xbox with the difficulty of controls.  So, this might be more of a Sony and Microsoft issue -- I don't really know.  Still I hope it is made a bit easier for you!  

Also, right now you are probably changing/adding to a lot of existing Sims that you have made in the past.  This might not be quite as tedious when you only have to do this to new Sims you make in the future! 🤞😉

    @PugLove888 Yeah, thanks for your response. 😊 I was adding likes and dislikes to Kaipo (a Sim I created who can be found on my Gallery; sorry, had to mention that since I just wanted to, lol) so once I was done with him I got lazy and decided that I didn't want to have to go through hitting Play, going back into CAS and doing it all over again so I just decided to leave my other Sims without likes/dislikes. 😆

    Though now that you think of it I probably could've just added them for my other Sims still (or at least one of them) so I think I'll do that tomorrow. ☺️ At least until I get lazy with it and be like, "That's enough for now", lol. 😂

    But yeah, I hope it's made easier one day too. 😊

    @AprilTheSimmer96 , Yes, if you have a lot of Sims in your game, then this can get really really tedious, even if you play on a PC or Mac, let alone play on a console!😅  At least there is now a quick button to change this on your Sims' Panel! 😅

    I have many, many save game files.... I will probably not get around to adding likes and dislikes to some of the ones I haven't played in a long time!  (some of my save files are only for testing anyway).  But since I love making new Sims, I will certainly be adding likes and dislikes to all of them!😁  I usually have a character in mind when I make a Sim, so this really excites me that I can now make them more fleshed out in terms of personality! 🎨✨

    I totally understand how you can get tired of adding likes/dislikes to all your Sims.  You might just want to do it a little at a time.😉  You can just do one household at a time, or perhaps one little neighborhood in each world at a time.  Even if it takes all year , you can still go at your own pace! 🙌

    @PugLove888 Okay, thanks for the feedback! For now I will be going at my own pace. 😁

    Also earlier I had my Sim do a mischief interaction and a thing popped up asking if I'd like to add Mischief to dislikes (since apparently my Sim was like "Nope" to Mischief) and I chose the "No" answer. Because I'm thinking of adding mischief as something she likes when I get to choosing her likes and dislikes. ☺️ Sorry if this is off topic, just thought I'd add it (for some reason). 😅

    @AprilTheSimmer96 yes, the Sim Gurus mentioned this in the Livestream they had a couple of days ago!  They wanted us to discover a few likes/dislikes through Gameplay, which I think is a fun way to go about it!  

    If you think you might want to add Mischief to your Sim's Likes in the future, then it was good that you choose "NO" to the question of if you wanted to add it to their dislikes!   I look at it like even though I normally love to read, there are some times when I just don't feel like it (though those times are rare!)  So in your case you can just view it as your Sim having an "off" day! 😉  

    Also, I think you can change their likes/dislikes later if you want.  (But I haven't tried this yet, so I might be mistaken). ☺

    @PugLove888 Yeah, I read you can change them at any time by going into CAS. So you are right about being able to change them later. ☺️

    @AprilTheSimmer96 , thanks!😀  I thought I heard them say that, but didn't want to say it was 100% for sure since I hadn't tried to change any likes from what I have set them as so far!  😅
