Seasons made it possible for about 2 weeks after release then people started whining and now it's plum near impossible for a sim to die from weather unless you force them too. There's almost no challenging aspects to this game whatsoever.
People "whined" about that because it was affecting their games in a really dumb way. It's one thing to encourage more encounters with death in the game but they should make sense. The concept of someone deciding to go on a jog during a blizzard and freezing to death all for the sake of losing a couple pounds is ridiculous
Yeah, there’s a difference between a decent chance for death and having a dozen unplayed sims freeze to death outside a gym because one guy died and everybody else had to go see.
I still think this was mod induced in old saves, because I tried and tried and tried to have it happen in a brand new vanilla save by playing winter on 28 days and letting my sim go about their business indoors and watching the neighborhood and by taking him to the gym and watching the outside while he worked out I side and it never once happened. All that ever happened was joggers would turn really blue going by the house and just when I thought they were done for, they would despawn. Outside the gym the would turn super blue but run very quickly indoors, no matter how long I waited. Even Simguru Nick never to my knowledge managed to recreate it, but now weather deaths like alien abductions have basically been tuned out of the game completely and we are back to nothing random ever happens, ever.
