Traits you Avoid
I never, ever give my Sims the Active Trait because I hate when Sims start doing push ups and sit ups out of no where. Are there any traits that you avoid giving your Sims and why?
Forum Discussion
- Ambitious - Not many of my Sims have actual careers, otherwise I might use it more.
- Dance Machine - While I adore the option to Disco Nap which fills their sleep need incredibly fast, I don't use it much because it's annoying how every idle moment is spent dancing. It's weird, there's no music, why are you dancing?
- Gloomy - Nope, no sad sacks in my game. Not on my watch.
- Hates Children - To quote Hank Hill, "Hated a baby?"
- Insider - None of my Sims except residents in my Asylum challenges have ever had a club.
- Kleptomaniac - I've used this trait for Sims, but only if their entire story centers around the trait, otherwise, nope. I also get rid of any townies that have it.
- Materialistic - Most of my Sims start life with nothing so why would they have this trait? lol
- Mean - Nope
- Slob - Nope
- Lazy - Nope
- Squeamish - Same as Kleptomaniac, only if their story centers around it.
- Unflirty - I can't even comprehend what that would be like. I'd die without romance/flirting in my life so I won't subject my Sims to it either. :)
- Vegetarian - I've given this to my Sims in the past, especially those who are supposed to be all about health, nature lovers, hippies, etc. But only those I micromanage (which is most of them). Otherwise, they end up autonomously eating meat and getting sick. Bleh...
- Self-Absorbed - I haven't had GF very long, so haven't given any of my Sims this trait yet. I dislike egotistical people though, so I'm a bit leary of it.
