The title says it all. I don't know why I started doing this challenge. I don't find it fun to take care of many children and doing it basically forever because 100 children is a lot. I like to play families, do stuff with them and have fun with them and not to do the same stuff again and again and all over again. I never liked this challenge. 100 baby challenge was on my NEVER to do list. Yet here I am doing it.
I do it in my regular save that I have played for about two years so that means the mother is a sim I have played with before. She has the fertile trait and some other reward traits so it's eaiser and quicker finished. Thirteen babies have been born and 7 are already out of the household. They live in the tiniest home.
I hate it. I don't know why I got the idea it is going to be fun. So much fun. It is not. It's an annoying chore. I'd rather deep clean my ugly apartment than doing the challenge. I HATE CLEANING! I actually went back to TS3 (and I am now at gen 3 with the Keatons) just to avoid my 100 baby challenge.
The thing is I did the decades challenge before. And I didn't really enjoy it either. I felt limited. I couldn't wait for the 80's to live kind of normal life but you know I got used to being limited on stuff that I basically didn't upgrade much in terms of technology. So my sism lived like cavemen till the very end. It felt like a chore to me as well but it has been like 2 months since I finished and I only have fond memories from the decades even though I didn't like it much, if you know what I mean.
I hate doing the 100 baby challenge and I want to quit but I don't want to be a quitter. Also I want to do the ISBI speedrun challenge so badly but can I even do it at this point when I hate all of the chalenges? That's the question.
Would you force yourself to eat something that made you gag? It's a game, and it's supposed to quit. It's human, and acceptable, to discover you didn't like something, and then quit doing it. Real like has enough punishment and obligation, which is why we like to game, yes? I say let yourself off the hook and don't waste another precious moment undertaking dreadful toil, that you could avoid.
And I feel the same way: even if my sim could keep all their needs met in some losing game of whack-a-mole, the grind of it would be tedious af.
There's no honor lost in walking away from toil that gets you nothing, eats up your time, and isn't even fun.
