Question? Caught Cheating ... by the paparazzi

I hope so. They only spent about 5 minutes talking about reputation during the stream. I would have liked to have learned more about what exactly will give you a negative reputation in the game. They did say that sim's won't be subject to " arbitrary moral judgements," but said it was more like the golden rule, do unto others. So, I would assume if someone was caught cheating on their partner, they'd be breaking the golden rule.

I really do hope that paparrazi can catch you cheating, and that your spouse will find out. Maybe the spouse will get a text message from someone telling them?

I wish I had an answer to your question. My Sim has the Player trait.

That's a good question. I hope they thought of that.

I really wanted to know more about reputation too. Cheating better lower it or what is the point? A big issue with this game is that there are NO CONSEQUENCES to actions! This is the chance to make a fully fleshed system where it matters whether another sim sees you do something wrong. I really hope this system isn't half-baked.

I kind of hope also... I want my sims to get caught cheating by paparazzi … the spouse knows about what happen...it would be funny..


it would be more of a challenge not getting caught...

If cheating has no consequence (like it is now, moodlet doesn't cut it) I will not buy this pack. Something like cheating should impact your reputation hard and your significant other should find out if the papparrazi catch you.

Otherwise that's lame.

I just hope the spouse doesn't find out every time.

True but surely if the paparazzi find out they would print it and basically ensure the spouse and the persons fans and family find out?

Unless you can pay them off which I don’t think is an object?

One of my biggest dislikes about the pack so far is that consequence is minimal and I was hoping the reputation system would improve it but after reading this thread I’m not convinced.

I know this is a newbie question, but how does the game determine if a Sim is cheating or not? Is it just having a strong romantic relationship with more than one Sim at a time? Or is it having a romantic relationship when a Sim is already someone else's bf/gf, fiance/e or spouse?

It’s usually any thing like kissing or flirting or any of the romantic socials with another sim in front of their spouse.
