I love the burglars in the sims 1-3.
However it’s my belief that the burglar won’t be returning because anything even slightly negative is either not there or if it’s there is toned right down. For example sims don’t die if fixing electronics and they get shocked the first time, death in the temples in jungle adventure is rare If not non existent. Currently the most dangerous feature in game is the tumble dryer if you don’t clean the lint trap.
How would that work with a burglar? He creeps in the front door and is so overcome with happiness moodlets he decides not to rob you? He is confronted by your sim and they stop and have a friendly discussion, after which he picks up your sims valuables and walks out the door? Or what if he gets the current trend of visiting your house and not leaving for hours? It would be really immersion breaking got see the burglar rob you then make a beeline for your sims pc to play games.
Your sims spot a burglar and who they going to call? The police? What police? Without the police a burglar would be pointless as much as it pains me to admit it.
But please Gurus prove me wrong!
