I absolutely ???? it. I should be happy, but It seems as if this is all I’ve been whining about since the latest update.
I ??? those phones so, so ~insert extremely ☠️ word here ~ I’m close to fragglin’ done with playing this game when every single sim is obsessed with their phone and there’s no way for me to control it. At least in real life I can give these air heads the fright of their lives. In the game…nothing. I can’t do anything except install a mod. Mods should not be necessary. The game mechanics should be stable enough to give us different options.
Many great features were introduced with this update, including a bodyhair menu and curved walls, but the obsessive phone use just really, really breaks the game for me. It’s that bad. Such a pity.
I might just write a book, release a rock album or learn how to knit a car cover at this point. I probably should anyway….. ??
This uncontrollable obsession with phones just doesn’t entertain me. Not in games. Never, EVER in real life.
If this is a basegame feature it should be made optional:
* we need an option to toggle on/ off phone use per sim.
* we need an option to disable phones entirely in the gameplay options menu.
* we need an option to confiscate cell phones, throw them on a pile and “fertilize” them before setting them on fire!!
Please fix the phone system, Maxis!!
If you’re adding more smart phone functions, animations & interactions, skins & fancy interfaces, that’s all grand, but AT LEAST give the same amount of options for players who prefer to tell stories that DO NOT include this kind of modern technology.
Not all my sims are GenZ.
Not all my sims are 2022.
Not all my sims are from this planet.
Please make ?use less real and more optional. ?
