Yeah, many of mine are getting the fear of a dead end job fear too. I did notice last time I was on a couple of days ago, that they mention a way to alleviate the fear ( I can’t remember if I put the cursed over the fear, ot if the message just appeared there and I read it…… I hadn’t noticed that before.
I have a couple of sims I don’t want to move up in there jobs. I want Jade to stay as a receptionist in one of my games. My thought is that she has less responsibility by not moving up, and more time to enjoy herself…..I haven’t played her since the wants/fears. I think the fears are annoying in many cases. It takes away the way I want to play some sims. I actually preferred just having whims that I could play when I wanted to. It didn’t conflict with the way I played my sims. I just wish they would have updated the whims for each of the packs that we used. Not all of my sims always want to turn off the stereo and turn it back on to a new channel every 5 minutes to take care of a want ( because they don’t really want that ). Some of my sims do like to listen to music and even dance on their own….. but not all of my sims…. Lol.
I love the active careers, and don’t mind the objectives of the careers at all. But now the Dev’s are taking away the way I want to play certain sims…… that I don’t like. I know I can turn off wants and fears, but then my sims can’t earn points for potions and such. I personally wish they would just let us go back to whims if we want to.
