Let's talk about the flawed emotion system

I find some of them very odd as well but I try to think of it this way; even if we as humans are depressed, we have things that can distract us and keep our minds off our sadness. The underlying depression is still there, but there are still things that make us smile and temporarily feel better. I know that I would feel better being in a room with lots of sunlight that is clean and nicely decorated than I would if I were in a dark room that was messy. I instantly feel better when I sit down to drink a nice cup of tea or relax in my hammock with a book. The same things apply to our sims. I don't think it's completely unrealistic, it's just exaggerated. :smile:
