Single-Level Aspirations
Hi! So, the new single-level aspirations that come with Neighborhood Stories and the Spa Day refresh. Let's talk about those! I consider the aspirations that come with new base game features and pa...

@xochiquetzl_xkvn I usually play either normal lifespan or long life, but I rarely have aging off (though some of my save games I do play with ageing off, but it is rare). Yes, Most of my occult Sims have the corresponding aspirations, unless I play a large family of supernatural Sims where there is always that one does their own thing! 😃 (So what if the entire family has withered stomachs...this one Vampire Sims aspires to be a chef! 🤣 ) I also like the Good Vampire aspiration when I want a bit of a challenge!
😅
I do tend to do the Author, Painter, and Musician aspirations a lot, as well as cooking. My problem with cooking is the dinner party, since I hate throwing parties in the game! So usually they are unfulfilled! 🤭😅 I haven't done Angling Ace in a while, and I need to do it again! I do love the Collector Aspiration and use it a lot!!!
Child of the Ocean is a bit odd if you pick it for a Mermaid since Mermaids are part fish, but many fish eat other fish/shellfish! i guess that scene from the movie Splash where Madison is eating the lobster is just how I always pictured mermaids! 😂😅 The Mermaids in the game certainly have the teeth for it! 🤣
I also tend to do the Parenting Aspiration for Sims I make as adults.
I've never gotten far in the Beach Life Aspiration because of that party! I think that party should be the final level, since parties are so hard! So you know I've never finished the Party Animal aspiration ! 😳🤣 But that does sound like a great Reward Trait!
Sometimes I make Sims with aspirations knowing I won't complete them, just because I think that Sim fits that personality. 😎
My Sims tend to marry Paka'a Uha, one of the prebuilts, and he's a Goofball, a Child of the Ocean, and a Music Lover. So I have a lot of experience with that Child of the Ocean trait, lol. If other Sims in the house are eating fish I have to micromanage him or he gets the wrong leftover/takes a serving and gets sad. I agree that fish eat other fish, but... as a vegetarian myself I just roll with it. He's a Conservationist in one of my saves so I have too much fun with his documentary titles and descriptions and that trait:
GLORIOUS FISH OF SULANI
Look at my fish friends! LOOK AT THEM! Aren't they beautiful? Aren't they majestic? Aren't they DELIGHTFUL? SAVE SULANI SAVE MY FISH FRIENDS!
@xochiquetzl_xkvn , I tend to micromanage my Sims in general! So I understand how hectic it can be even if you are just micromanaging for one Sim! I have a similar experience with my Vegetarian Sims that share a house with non-Vegetarians! I will have, for example, one parent who doesn't eat meat and upon turning into a teen I will have the teen practice making dinner and I forget that the taco casserole isn't something the mom can eat! 🤭 And now this is even more difficult with Sims who have the Lactose Intolerant trait! 😅 I have to really pay attention when I play those families!
I love your story for Paka'a Uha!🥰 I can totally see it! Fantastic descriptions! 👍If you have City Living, you can get him into politics on the "Fish Are Friends, Not Food" platform! 🤣
@PugLove888 I'm playing Paka'a's Conservationist (alien) daughter right now, and... I've never seen him do ANYTHING so on-brand. https://youtu.be/ye4syXt4_Vo <3 :D
(I guess he's playing to his fish and frog friends!)
