How do you think the Noble Career will work?

How do people think the Noble Career will work?  I'm assuming  it's going to be based on the mnuemoic of "Do Men,  Ever Visit Britan"  In other words Britian's nobility- Do=Duke,  Men=Marquess,   Ever=Earl (ie: Downtown Abbey),  Visit=Viscount (it's pronounced Vi-count),  and Britian=Baron.

  • I hope we can choose our own title. Otherwise I assume they will follow the traditional hierarchy of

    Royalty 

    • Emperor/empress 
    • King/queen 
    • prince/princess

     

    Nobility 

    • Duke/Duchess 
    • Marquess/Marchionesse
    • Count/Countess (British: Earl) 
    • Viscount/Vicountess
    • Baron/Baroness

     

    As you can see all titles are gendered. I expect with the sims history of inclusivity and breaking gender patterns, they will try to let players choose the title. I am fine with gendered titles or free choice. Only thing I don't want is the 'male is default, use it for everyone' approach. But I don't see the male only approach working for Noble titles. 

    As for the career , it is mentioned in the official blog post

    The Noble Career invites your Sim into a storybook world of courtly intrigue, lavish pageantry, and dramatic power plays. From Noble Newcomer to Kingdom Leader, your Sim can rise through the noble ranks and claim the Throne as Monarch of many Kingdoms

    Advance Noble Rankings by earning favor at court, forging powerful alliances, or pursuing bolder paths through clever schemes and strategic marriages. And yes, your Sim’s spouse and children inherit those shiny titles, too.

    ... 

    There are no fixed hours in this career; performance hinges on completing Royal Duties each day.  

     

  • The post says at one point: “From Noble Newcomer to Kingdom Leader, your Sim can rise through the noble ranks and claim the Throne as Monarch of many Kingdoms (thanks, cross-pack play!*). ”

    Sounds like “Noble Newcomer” and “Kingdom Leader” are respectively the names for the lowest and highest noble ranks. 

    Also, it sounds like you can turn any world into a kingdom by having Sims in the noble career living there.
