t. They also used the "mind BLOWN!" emoji, so that makes it seem not just huge but shocking or beyond next level, like something thought impossible.

You think it could be a spin-off or Sims 5? I mean that would blow my mind.

I think the thing I want most is non mutual relationships

Wait, I thought relationships in the game were already non-mutual? I remember doing a Bachelor-style challenge, and when I monitored relationship values, the numbers were different from each direction

Never seen numbers but even if a tad diff the overall relationship is the same. There doest seem to be any way to, for example, have my kid hate her stepmother well her stepmother adores her. if the step mom always does nice things for the kid, the bar is green on both sides even if the step kid always interact mean to the step mum. If the bar is red it's red for both.

Or my other family where the sim fancies the girl next door. I want him to have full on romantic interest in her at least half a pink bar, but her to not really know he exists yet so no relationship bars for him. This can't be done

Yeah, that's a good point. In practice, social interactions tend to affect both parties roughly the same way. Maybe something like this calls for complex AI

Return of SimGuruCopeland and the Store !

I hope a store NEVER makes a return! It was sooo overpriced and awful.

TS3 had both stuff packs and the store. But why rage about it? No one is forcing you to buy from it. Having a Sims store is a win-win situation. It's there for the people who want it and the people who don't can just ignore it. Besides, there are a variety of ways to get stuff there at much discounted prices. None of the things I've bought there were purchased full price.

It's not a win win when they put functional objects behind pricey sets. The piecemeal way they sold stuff made one have to spend much more for equal amount you'd get in an average stuff pack. The stuff packs that include functional objects for only 10 bucks versus Sims 3's 20 dollar stuff packs are far better.

It cost me about $20 US to get the carousel. It's cool and all but the novelty wears out VERY quickly. And the boardwalk venue that comes with it consists mostly of nonfunctional decor

TS4 is pretty bad about chopping up content piecemeal, but the TS3 store was worse about it. 2 SPs or 1 GP definitely had way more value

Why should we have to put up with another Sims store? It's not going to be a "win-win situation",it's most likely going to be as overpriced as the Sims 3 store. I imagine most people would rather not have to put up with buying worlds or single objects that quickly become boring. No more Sims stores,please,EA.

I hope it is The Sims 5..

Aww no. You're probably right. This means my Vampires are going to be driving Subarus. :'(

Lol there’s no mentioning it’s a store update and some of y’all already angry. I have no expectations so I can’t be let down ??
