I like it so far; it’s nice that increasing reputation is a little challenging and requires a decent amount of input from the player. I haven’t played with it extensively, but I was pleasantly surprised to see my sim with a great reputation suffer the consequences of “cheating” on another. I put “cheating” in quotations because she wasn’t in a committed relationship with anyone at the time, but she was still judged for her actions. She was an actress and had a romantic relationship with both a producer and a co-star, so when one kissed her in front of the other, all her co-workers reacted when she was confronted. Early the next morning, she received a text from one of her friends (another celebrity, by the way) that said something along the lines of: “I don’t want to pass judgement, but I heard you were caught cheating on your partner. Maybe you should keep your personal affairs more...personal.” After that text, she took a pretty decent hit to her reputation. It wasn’t enough to ruin it, nor did any of her other friends or romantic interests seem to dislike her for cheating. I only hope the implementation of this system means we may see further elaboration on it, especially when it comes to the romance department. I would have been more impressed had her “cheating” been exposed without having one of the romantic interests see it, and had sims who encountered her in public reacted negatively or refused to speak to her as a sign of their disapproval.
I do also appreciate the fact that each level of reputation has different perks. I really like the fact that having a positive reputation results in having an easier time befriending and romancing sims. Although, I was kind of bothered by the frequent job offer texts. Nice idea, just a little too persistent for my taste. The blind date and “could we be friends?” texts were pretty cute, though. I haven’t played with the negative reputation yet, so I can’t really remark on it. All in all, I enjoy the system and hope they implement similar ones into packs in the future. :smile:
