Neighborhood stories; sims are out of control
Ever since neighborhood stories was introduced my neighbor sims have been over the top. I absolutely loved the idea of this addition to the game, but have been struggling with it after its introductio...

I agree. It's a mess. My main sim I'd been building stats etc for over 2 years -and her husband and sister- died the first day of this release. SO, I lose 3 main players I use, as they were coming back from a trip to Baatu. Initially I had no understanding of what happened because I'd been playing a different family when it happened. I had to dig to find the death notification. My notifications said 2 of them died from laughing to death, and the sister died from anger. This is just bizarre (and not a "fact of life" as you've stated the sexual orientation patch is). Not only that, but there was only one urn left behind to resurrect in the wishing well. My only recourse was to recreate the dead sims. I had saved while fixing part of a different build before I realized what had even happened. So these sims died while I wasn't playing them. Sorry, but this patch needs some serious rework before activating it, and a warning of some sort would've been nice. Otherwise, I wouldn't have checked that box. Since then, I've deactivated the majority of this update mechanics because it's a largely out of control mechanism with UNREALISTIC commands.
