Can we just talk about Chance Cards?

I miss the days of when Chance cards had actual risks and rewards. Used to be if you picked the wrong answer you could get demoted or fired. Now the worst you get is a slight (and boy do I mean slight) job performance decrease. I miss the difficulty!

I find them kind of annoying and they don't really seem to have much impact on our sims lives anyway.

I rarely see chance cards since I added new EP/GP/SP into my game.

I love my Sims to go into the Mixology career to get the Snaggle Fluster drink, especially when first starting out with a new Sim. The Sim in my household had this "chance card" come up so many times, it was frustrating that it was rejected as a "dud" every time! Eventually I had the Sim leave the Mixology career and tried with another Sim, but no Snaggle Fluster opportunity has come up so far.

Personally I don't know why the Snaggle Fluster was not something that once learned by a Sim could be passed on to family members.

I may start a new vanilla game just to see if the Snaggle Fluster opportunity arises.

I sometimes think that there is so much in the game that older stuff often gets overlooked when playing and the latest install often takes precedence over older things

Does it have something to do with work style? I've noticed more chance cards if my sim "works hard" versus any other option.

Yeah it's pure luck. Sometimes my kids have a pop-up every day at school, but there are also times where they don't show up for a whole week.

I find them annoying. There are too many with Parenthood, plus they’re not smart enough to call the parent of the child, I’ve had grandparents and siblings who live in the same house get those calls.

When I am in the middle of socializing and I am several layers into the social wheel just about to click “get to know” or whatever, THAT’S when the game loves to give me pop-ups like this. And it makes me so aggravated.

Put them in a notification, please!

I love chance cards and usually get them whenever my Sims go off to work, but I do want more, I enjoy them quite a bit to be honest lol

I get them on a regular basis. I usually don't mind them because they're inconsequential. In TS2 I often click ignore because the consequences are too harsh sometimes
