Thank you! The costumes and sets look like so much fun.
I still wish we had a costume category in CAS.
I have been using the party category to keep my cosplay costumes.
My party clothes are sharing the Formal category. So when I have sims not under my control on the lot, like Vanessa, I can just ask to see their party outfit.
I will have other cosplay groups hanging out at this lot, so mys sims aren't the only ones.
I do prefer the CC costumes because I find it fun to inject a little popular culture into my sims game--either spoofing it or injecting it directly in.
Overwatch has been a thing for a while now, but I still like dressing them up in Overwatch outfits, even though I don't play the game myself. I'm not into MMOs.
This stuff is mainly about giving my teens more things to do.
Which they will probably carry on in the earlier parts of the young adult stage between University breaks.
They will be poor actors initially, so there will be lots of flubs, but working on acting skills gives a little game-play to cosplaying.
These two messed up even while playing it safe.
There are only so many interactions that make sense for this set, so eventually this will get old.
But I can always try another set to freshen things up. I will try the apocalyptic set next if I ever get bored of this one.
But since cosplayers would rather
pose than risk their delicate costumes in action scenes, posing will be a thing.
Get Famous really delivers in this aspect.
Strike a pose.
Which will trigger the paparazzi, if they have any fame.
Working on those acting skills, and later they can act out scenes for fame points when they skill up.
Play time is over.
You can go now Vanessa, but change out of that outfit, so I don't see you walking around in it.
But it doesn't end there.
Going home, there is more to do to make this even more immersive.
Video blogs.
I'm having her do a fashion blog, which I can give cosplay related tittles.
She can also use her drone to record video and live-stream GeekCon and other activities.
So...
Get To Work--Mannequins, wardrobe closet
Get Together--Clubs, Cafes
City Living--GeekCon festival
Get Famous--Movie sets, costumes/makeup, acting skill, action animations, fame, paparazzi, drones, video station, etc.
Are all working together to give this simple idea a heck of a lot more depth.
I'm amazed by it all. I'm also amazed at how I am into it. :D
I wonder what we will get next that may be useful. It would be nice to have a sewing machine.
Witches!
Cosplayers that can work with magic effects and more costumes.
