Celebrities, who needs them?

I haven't tried this yet, but I think it can be eliminated from a save by checking the toggle in your settings to turn off fame gain, then going to the celebrities in DSV and playing them just long enough to have them step out of the spotlight and then marking them again as unplayed in manage households. Then I guess the ones that aren't in world could be moved to a cheap starter and also played just long enough to step out of the spotlight and then be evicted out of world or, even faster just deleted from your bin right off the bat. I think that would eliminate it from your save entirely, then if you have a sim you do want to obtain fame you can turn it on manually in their simology panel on a per sim basis. Because I feel you. I love GF but the celebrity sightings are out of control.

I do play with fame turned off, you know, where unless I manually set a sim on that path they dont gain fame... but still it's so hard to play outside of the home when celebrities gate crash without failure.

Mortimer and Bella Goth went on a Date for Love Day to The Old Quarter Inn Bar in Windenburg. Nothing too stressful about that, right?

... Right?

WRONG!

One freaking celebrity brought a tidal wave of fans causing Mortimer and Bella to be separated. Interactions between the two were impossible to complete. Bella got side tracked with all the excitement. Mortimer kept getting his drinks stolen. It took 5 hours to order and recieve a Meat and Cheese Plater as the bar tender kept freaking out over the celebrity. Mortimer kept glitching through the tabels because of the tidal wave of fans. Bella would not go to the bathroom as she was too busy taking photos of the celebrity.

Why do celebrities have such a pull on sims? Why can't they stay, for the most part, in Del Sol Valley? Why can't the Goths go on a date uninterrupted by celebrities and their entourage?

I absolutely agree with you. I think that the celebrity system needs to be simmered down a bit. Like, if you are a global superstar, you can actually go on a vacation without people crowding you and making it impossible to enjoy a nice get away from home, and making it impossible to go to a bar and have a drink for example. And with other celebrities. They just totally destroy the atmosphere of venues! One time, my Sims were eating at a restaurant, Brytani Cho comes in and starts jumping in the middle of my fancy quiet restaurant. Then all my sims start crowding her and refuse to eat their meal without screaming, asking for pictures and passing out. And all the other sims... oh boy it's just a nightmare... The venue get's overcrowded, nobody wants to eat anymore and people walking in are just there to see the celebrity! It's just painful! But what I've found out is that if you make a venue in new crest, there doesn't seem to really be any celebrities there. Kinda strange how it's everywhere else though.

Exactly what I think. Get Famous would be so much better if celebrities were toned down.

Thank you for understanding. I just had to vent.

I got that to. 1 time is ok. But every freaking time i go someplace with my sims, there is this Celeb who is just killing it (in a negative way). Tho i like get famous, this is a bit off a mood killer.

I think you can turn the fame off i couldn't be sure but go to your settings at to get famous and check it out I couldn't say though
