My sim gets disliked by every new sim he meets

Whenever my sim meets someone new, their relationship immediately starts at the "disliked" stage, even if it was just a friendly introduction. When they keep talking however, they still talk to each other in a friendly way. He doesn't have a bad reputation. He also isn't a vampire, so it can't be because of a weakness either. Anyone have an idea what could be causing this? I only noticed this issue after restarting my game.

  • As a Judith Ward afficionado, all I can think of is a celebrity with a bad rep trying to be friendly when they introduce themselves.
  • He isn't a celebrity, though I guess I've already found the culprit. Literally just minutes after I posted this, he got a bad reputation for fighting with other sims in public. It seems like the effects of the bad reputation were already there and the game didn't catch up in time lol
  • Hah see! But I thought you needed the perks to have a negative start. The more we know!

    Hmm... Do you have Get Together expansion pack?
    Perhaps your sim is currently gathering in a club that has Infamous Club perk. This perk has this effect when your sim meets new sims while gathering. One of the pre-made clubs that have that is Renegades.

    Oh, nevermind. Fighting is a pretty effective way to lower sim's reputation.

    Your suggestion actually could've had to do with it as well, since he was indeed at a club gathering at this moment, and the club does have the infamous perk.
  • @Huiiie_07 , is your sim a Spellcaster? If so, it's possible for them to get a curse of unwarranted hostility (I can't remember the exact title but it comes up as a green boxing glove icon on your Sim's needs panel), which will randomly make nearby Sims want to fight your sim.

    Nope, not a spellcaster
  • It's definitely the infamous perk. If your sim is in a popular club you get a nice boost and an infamous club gives a bigger negative on introduction.
