Introductions to famous sims that should be treated as normal introductions instead

Sometimes, it just doesn't make sense that a sim needs to attempt introduction when the celibrity is family or family in law.
For example here

Archie (the active sim) wants to introduce himself to Alejandro Luz. Alejandro is a famous actor but is also Archie's pregnant wife's brother. Archie's wife, Alma, has a really good relationship with her brother and invited him over so the 2 could finally meet.
But Archie can only "attempt" to introduce himself which I find very unrealistic. If it is not possible to make a distinction between sims and everyone must attempt introduction whatever the case is, at least we should have an interaction where Alma could be the one introducing them, something like "Archie,this is my brother, Alejandro. Alejandro, this is my husband, Archie".

Btw, I attempted to introduce him and it failed. I just want Archie to be able to invite Alejandro to the winterfest feast!

What examples do you guys have of situations where a sim should be able to introduce tehmselves properly regardless of the fame of the other sim?

    That kind of makes sense. It's not his brother, they don't have a family relationship and they've never met, not part of the household, so it would be just like meeting any other celeb.

    If you click on another sim, you should see an option that says “Other Sims” or something along those lines. Once you select that, there should be another option that says “Talk Up...”. Have your child’s mother “talk up” her son to her brother and he should then approach his nephew to introduce himself. I think you’ll be able to interact with him normally after that. :smile:

    P.S. I do agree with you; family shouldn’t have to “attempt” an introduction with another relative. Hopefully it’s only an oversight that can be fixed in a patch.


    Thanks for the tip. Unfortunately I did that already and even though the brother said something like "he sounds awesome, I want to meet him!" nothing changed. He approached the kid, and I thought he was going to talk to him but then he stopped and stood there doing nothing. (maybe a bug?).
    Yes, I really hope it is an oversight and could be fix in a future patch.
