Neighborhood Stories

I had to turn off deaths, as it was taking out too many of the premades - especially those in HoB lol

I only use the Career Change feature for Neighborhood Stories. Everything else is turned off.
All of the other features in Neighborhood Stories are very badly tuned. Too many sims die, and they all adopt way too many pets and babies. I had an entire one of my lineage households killed off by NS :'(

I trust MC Command Center far more than Neighborhood Stories for Story Progression. They need to update this feature and make it less extreme.

I may very well have to retool how I set things.

Neighborhood Stories. I have a love/hate relationship with them at the moment.

I have neighborhood stories turned off entirely because it is way too extreme, and I play rotationally.

before my computer issue took out everything I noticed so many missing sims I realized I had been a little too focused on my sim's stories, it keeps things interesting but I am forcing a habit to turn it off completely or get rid of the busier options while preparing my save for playing.

I have taken out Death, Moving Out, and Moving In with my NS. I don't mind the occasional, but nearly half of all the sims who started out had either died (always killed) or had moved out. Whole families had either moved into a one-bedroom home or became homeless. The wildest death was one of the university girls was killed when she was working on a toilet and the thing caught on fire.

Some of the death descriptions are pretty wild.

I have taken out the entire NS thing. I first tried it and found it way too much happening to too many households in a short time. It seemes exaggerated to me.
