Advancing AI?

So one of the things that I absolutely love about this game is that the more we put into it, by way of the developers, the more the game sort of “comes to life.” Has anyone else noticed this?

I’ve had a number of scenarios where sims will exercise their “free will” when I try to make them do something, and be affirmative about it. Has anyone else noticed this? 

One cute thing that happened similarly, I am playing a sim who goes to Foxbury University. She has always opted for the sweets being served at the stand outside when I let her choose on her own. Even if she is standing by the food buffet at Darby’s Den.  

So today, she shows up to the Den hungry. I take a peek at the menu to see what they have available and nothing really wowing (garden salad, chocolate chip cookie, something else). So I don’t manually select anything for her. When I resume the game, SHE opts to go to the buffet instead of the food stand outside like she normally would. 

I say to myself, “She’s going to get the chocolate chip cookie, watch.” 

I watch her order and they place a darn chocolate chip cookie on the counter. 

I said to myself, “Wow, that’s crazy. My sim literally has a sweet tooth.”

That’s all! It’s cute how they decide. 

Thanks for reading.
