Do you normally create a version of your own family?

@Midevil_Chaos and @EA_QueenBee , I have made the family that I grew up with, as well as my husband and myself, for every version of the Sims except TS4! 😅  I am not very good at making real people's faces so I keep putting it off. 😳  I did make my childhood home in TS4, though! (It's on the Gallery).  And I made my husband's and my first Pug who passed away shortly after Cats & Dogs came out!😭🥰 (Well, it was loosely based on him, since I was too distraught to recreate his face markings and shading exactly , and just have never gotten around to perfecting it. )  I really need to make the 2 Pugs I have now! 💖

Awwwww, that's so cute. It's nice trying to make family and see what you can do :D

@Midevil_Chaos , Yes, I really need to make both my childhood family and my husband and all our Pugs for the Sims 4.  I'm better at picking out personality traits and clothing/hair for real people than I am at recreating real faces.  But once I"m done, then I can see what trouble my family gets into!😜😅 Thanks for reminding me! 😎

@PugLove888 

lol

@Midevil_Chaos 

Glad I made you laugh with my odd late night ramblings! 😂

So I got a reply from my friend! 😂 She said "I HAVE NO WORDS! VANILLA CULLEN! 4 REAL!? WAT WERE U THIKIN' GURL. OMGG THE DWAARFS HAVE BEEN CHEATED OUT OF RIDIN' THE BULL!! I WILL NOW ANNOY UR VILLAGERS IN AN ATTEMPT TO SERVE JUSTICE 4 DWAARFF KINDD! 🤣 She even linked a video on YouTube of a dwarf playthrough with Iron Bull, LOL. Gotta say, it was hilarious, she was right about me finding it ridiculously funny. 😂 She has a habit of wanting me to playthrough games with silly choices that are usually very funny, but I'm trying to playthrough all serious and such! Lol. Don't know how I'll break it to her that I'll probably never play as a dwarf! 😂

You're right! I haven't met Dorian yet, I was just told about him by my friend, in great detail as per usual. 😂 She's the type of person that can't let you go into a game without knowing anything, I don't think she can resist if she likes the game! 😂 BTW isn't Vivienne such a amazing badass character! I weirdly really like her. 😆

*Doesn't have any valid comeback for such thieving* 😂 I have to admit I have watched some Austin Powers, I used to have a friend in school that loved those movies and would want me to rewatch them with him 😂 YEAH BABY! Was a favourite saying of his, much to the embarrassment of his mother. 😂 And that was like 10-15 years after the first film was released, think she regretted buying him them. 🤣🤣🤣

@PugLove888  

Aww, I'm sorry for the loss of your sweet pet, I know how hard it is. 😥 I can't make a sim dog that looks anything like my dog though, not even loosely, so I imagine you did a much better job than me. 😂❤

@Mrs_K_Desormeaux 

I'm glad you're glad, and I laughed today as well lol. 😂😂😂

I guess I'll have to steer clear from your friend forever now. I'm ok with that, I don't think she'd have enjoyed my life choices... erm, I mean ingame decisions. Did she literally say "riding the bull"? What the hell. I know exactly what she means, but damn girl. I think we now know exactly why she plays the game. Hopefully she has not used her influence to taint your soul, as I'd be disappointed if she did. 😂 

That being said, if you ever need to break it to her, don't worry, I'll be more than happy to have your back.

I may one day do a playthrough with a dwarf, but will finish with my current run first... once I actually get back into it. 🤣

Oh! You haven't met Dorian yet. Ah, I see. Well then, you'll either love or hate him. Not sure there is an in between, unless you really wanna break his heart. But! Since you're playing as a female, that won't happen, obviously.

Girl, Vivienne... is a hell of a character. Again, you will either love OR hate her in terms of what she does (not personality). You'll see why in the long run. I won't spoil it, but she is definitely quite the character!

I love Austin Powers. Such great movies, and a great character! Somehow though... I don't think you'd want me to speak to you like if I was imitating Austin Powers, 😂😂😂 despite the fact that it would most likely be funny.

I have played some more TW3 btw. Man, combat is hard as hell lol. I barely survived an encounter with a bear. But now I met Yennefer though - she is good looking in terms of appearance and attire as well. Best female character in the game so far... Not hard to beat at this point, considering I only met peasants and a witch. 😂 As for the inn's owners, they are complete ingrates. Like, I just saved your life, and yes the patron's head just rolled onto the floor, but come on! I saved your life. I swear, the way people treat you in the game? Pfff.

@Midevil_Chaos 

Haha! She's got a great sense of humour. I'm not to sure whether she can put up with mine sometimes. 🤣 And yes that's exactly how she wrote it! I spit out my drink when I read it as I wasn't expecting all caps and the quote 'riding the bull'. 😂 

I literally have added every single possible character addition to the inquisition, I didn't even question them on why, I was just like "Yeah sure, you can join". 😂 I'm even more intrigued by Vivienne now! I let her join without asking her any questions as well because I loved her introduction so much! 🤣

I recommend playing on story only difficulty, at least for the first time anyway, I know I did (such a pro gamer I am). 😂😂

Yennefer is stunning! A lot of people are put off by her personality when they don't know her well. But that's her, she's a contrast, black and white, lilac and gooseberries, all opposites just like her personality. She's very complicated, but loves Geralt and Ciri and puts that above everything and anybody else. Even though she comes across as maybe a little abrasive in some people's opinion, I love her character personally. In the games there's a certain sorceress you meet early on that hasn't got a massive cameo but she's got some of my favourite quotes in the game, She's a sort of a take her or leave her sort of character too. But I also love her character. 😊

For sure! The Inn keep is so ungrateful. She's actually one of the most annoying characters in the game. And she literally only has a tiny part, 😂 but I always get annoyed at her every time! As do most Witcher players though, so it's not just us! 😂

@Mrs_K_Desormeaux 

I assumed she wrote it like that. And I was loving all of it! 🤣 I dunno if she can put up with yours. Thankfully I can! 🤣🤣🤣 I'm not sure she could deal with mine either, especially not some Austin Powers one, which don't worry, I seldom use it. I may not be as charming as Austin Powers, but at least I have better looking teeth. 😂 Don't quote me on the before last before. *me/ pensive* 🤔

Ok, have own getting backstabbed by one of them at some point. 😂 I'm just kidding though. But seriously though, yeah, you can add random people who make no sense sometimes, that you're like, "Yes! Wait, was that person maybe a maniacal serial killer or something?" As for Serra, you think she's funny... but wait until you see more of her down the stretch. Hopefully you'll learn more about her. God, please don't, please don't torture yourself. 😂

I... Am playing on the easiest difficulty, that's how I beat the bear finally lol. 😂 Just like you, I'm a pro gamer! Ironically, I beat the entire Mass Effect trilogy on the highest difficulty. I can't even beat a bear on the 2nd lowest difficulty. 😂😂😂 I guess that's one of the reasons why we hate FPS games, right? Aside the fact that FPS games are just bad lol.

I can't say I have any issues with Yennefer. Better than the protagonist, and she looked good in her attire. Like dude, why can't MY character look as good as Yennefer. I wish I WAS playing as Yennefer. 😂

I can't wait to meet Ciri, since I'd like to know how they make her look and sound. That's assuming you meet her, for all I know, she might have been kidnapped or worse, murdered by those frosty knights.

Thank you! I feel vindicated. The evil side of my character wanted to burn the inn down. 😂 I wish you could play as evil though, like in Neverwinter Nights (OG). Don't get me wrong, I'm the sweetest person you'll meet lol, but I do enjoy my share of ingame fun. It makes games like Neverwinter Nights (OG) more interesting, as you have to solve things a different way, which may sometimes be harder.

EDIT: OMG, I know it's really old school and I keep talking about it... but you could totally buy Neverwinter Nights: Enhanced Edition at 85% off on GOG right now :D So you can play as a complete saint or a complete devil lol. I think ima buy it :D Some people say they don't like that edition, but you can install the Diamond edition instead. It actually allows you to install both. Sorry if I keep talking about it, I enjoyed that game so much when I was younger, and excited to have bought it lol. And compared to the Dragon Age franchise, it has way more races, and especially way more classes AND prestige classes (which are "better" classes... and  A LOT of them).

I sometimes do both. My first ever sim was actually based on my grandpa!

I actually create a save years ago on Sims 3 based on my family. For Sims 4, I have created a pretty much-updated version of said family, though the version of myself is always an alter ego. The usual reason I sometimes create a version of my own family and my extended family in the Sims is always a "what-ifs" scenario and wanted to see what the family tree would look like in the Sims. I don't play on this save, but that reminds me to update it. 

The game saves that I do play are often started very loosely based on myself, based on characters that are often on shows, movies, games, or just a random character that I create that appears in my mind. The oldest save that I have for Sims 4 was a premade character that had a storyline going on, and now I have no idea where's the storyline going to be next. I would say it's kinda like improv at this point.
