My future Scientist dislikes Rocket Science ??

I don't understand the allure of reinventing the same character and playing her exactly as before. Or am I missing something? ?

I do it all the time and find it fun to watch how their new environment shapes them. As long as their core remains untouched, anything goes. So the question is, is Rocket Science part of Bonnie's core character or just one of many possible expressions of her scientific curiosity?

That said, in this situation I still voted No, because the game tries to slap sims with a Dislike every time they attempt an activity in a bad mood. That's not a real dislike, that's just needing to kick back with a cup of tea for twenty minutes in my book.

I'd say roll with it as well, but I kind of like when my game decides to take me in an unexpected direction. It adds some interest and variety in my game I suppose, since I normally play my game so perfectly and hate inserting any kind of drama on my own, so I guess that's my way of mixing it up a little bit. It adds a new challenge and the potential for more interesting/complex storylines.

If the sim happens to be in a good mood, they'll 'like' the activity. I try not to let moodlets mess up my plans for my sims, especially when moodlets are so random and the sim is just being melodramatic, as usual.

Turn it down this time, then let her work on a rocket again later and see if you get the same prompt to cement her dislike again. In yes, go with it. If no, she was just having an off day. ^_^

It seems more realistic that she would have aspects of her job she doesn't like. I know I've had those moments.

Hmm… would this make the story more enjoyable to play? Her having one part of her job that she doesn’t like. Maybe it’s the building that is no fun but actually flying in it is better?

I worked in a lab on campus for one summer. Some of it was really fun, some of it was so boring that it very obvious how it ended up on my plate (smallest little new minion).

Sometimes you love something, and want to do it forever, but in the middle of a frustrating moment you just hate the ever-loving plumbob out of it. That doesn't mean that you don't still love it, just that you love it so much that why won't that thing go where I put it?! I'm going to tear this thing apart if it doesn't... Oh. It works. Yay! SO MUCH FUN.

That's a really good point. I couldn't tell you how many times I've said I would never cook another meal again, but I love cooking.

Maybe she was just having a bad day. :tongue:

Yeah, the cos-players didn't want to let her take selfies.
