[Discussion] Trait Combinations, Lifestyles & Item/Object Pairing Investigation
Every once in a while I see on the EA forums or Reddit there is a Trait Combinations thread. May it be what is your favourite, what is the most chaotic and what is the best. But most of the times I see one of a few things end up being the conclusion, 1: is that traits play no real part or no real difference in the game, 2: people choose randomized and stick with it, or 3: they opt out of the most detested traits.
As I have only been playing Sims 4 since L&D aka earlier this year, I haven't really had a chance to have these conversations and I just look up old zombie threads most of which do not have much on the new traits. So I propose a small community collaboration project reporting findings on certain trait combinations with or without Lifestyle or item/object support.
To make this easier to report/review let's use a response format:
Traits: <list traits used here, feel free to include occult type, reward, aspiration, etc. traits>
Lifestyles: <if used, by cheats or earning properly>
Items/Objects: <list of items on Sim or objects place for Sim to help encourage trait synergy>
Plan: <what you think or hope will happen>
Results: <what actually happened>
Rating: <out of 10 how did the combination fair?>
Conclusion: <Any additional thoughts>
