Where to Woohoo and How to Die?

The Sims 4 is a Teen rated game.
This means that meaningful relationships and personalities are a taboo and pretty much completely absent.
On the flip side, the player can get their sim to Woohoo just about anywhere and additional to that, a sim can get Killed and their Soul Reaped in the most ludicrous ways.
So. I’m currently doing a little research into the Woohoo and Death Type situation. I actually don’t know about most of them...you may wonder what I’ve been doing in my game....
Yes. I usually just get my immortal sims to cloudgaze...😉 Not quite so romantic with all that in-game social distancing going on.

But really I would like you to share your wisdom with me and offer some new perspectives.

Below are a couple of questions for you. You can pick and choose and see which ones you feel like answering. If you like to answer them all, please go ahead.

In your opinion:


  • What is the ultimate Woohoo location?
  • What is the ultimate way to End it all?
  • Which new Woohoo Location would you like to see in future packs or updates?
  • Which new Death Type would you like to see in future packs or updates?
  • Do you think Woohoo is appropriate for this game? If not, why?
  • Do you purposely kill your Sims, do you let autonomy do its job, or are your sims Immortal?
  • Do you think Death should be handled differently?

    Note that this should all be related to TS4, however, you may reference other Sims titles. Remember to keep it decent and light hearted. ;)

    • Woohoo in the beautiful island waterfalls

      If there was a Nuke in the game, that could end it all.

      Future pack woohoo location.
      How about on the Moon.

      Eaten by a Werewolf as a new death type.

      Barbie & Ken doll woohoo is appropriate.

      Grimm, meh.
    • What is the ultimate Woohoo location? Let's go with a party bush while being a nudist, maybe while in Selvadorada. Rumble in the jungle. Waterfall in Sulani came to mind too. Now, I also think that the vault from Get Famous is pretty funny too.

      What is the ultimate way to End it all? By burning yourself to death while setting your simoleons on fire because you've motherloded too many times.

      Which new Woohoo Location would you like to see in future packs or updates? Well, more animations. As for a location? Luxury hotel.

      Which new Death Type would you like to see in future packs or updates? Revenge.

      Do you think Woohoo is appropriate for this game? If not, why? Yes. If you don't like it, just don't click that button.

      Do you purposely kill your Sims, do you let autonomy do its job, or are your sims Immortal? I let the Grim Reaper decide. I do not ever deliberately kill any sims. There was one whom I didn't like so I didn't put the fire out when he caught himself on fire.

      Do you think Death should be handled differently? More grieving, funerals and remembering. It's better than it was but could be more developed.

    • Interesting discussion.. here’s my take

      In your opinion:

      What is the ultimate Woohoo location?
      I like the shower, just cause. Was pretty happy when it got put back in with University.

      What is the ultimate way to End it all?
      No really sure about this one. Could probably count on one hand the number of Sims I’ve had die. Natural causes (old age) might be the “ultimate” for the most fulfilled, happy (but finite) life?? I didn’t appreciate death by hysteria (by accident) at the humour and hijinks festival.

      Which new Woohoo Location would you like to see in future packs or updates?
      Pass. There are so many. Rocket ship, observatory, hot tub, shower, bed of course...

      Which new Death Type would you like to see in future packs or updates?
      Also pass. I don’t mind a bit of “risk” in the game, but I don’t necessarily want my Sims just dying?!

      Do you think Woohoo is appropriate for this game? If not, why?
      Sure.

      Do you purposely kill your Sims, do you let autonomy do its job, or are your sims Immortal?
      I try to play generational with aging on, but I almost always end up abandoning that Sim/family/game before anyone dies. I have had exactly one Sim (it happened to be Bob Pancakes..) die of old age.

      Do you think Death should be handled differently?
      Maybe reasonable mourning based on how well people knew the Sim? I’m not sure about the Grim Reaper, but guess I don’t see how else they’d do it. He (Grim) fits in well with a lot of other things in the game style.
      I’ve contemplated the Mortem (?) mod for a more “realistic” style game..
    • I had to go away to think about this one for a bit. OK, here goes...

      What is the ultimate Woohoo location? I don’t have all the packs so I don’t know. However, shower and waterfall sound great.

      What is the ultimate way to End it all? The sudden deaths like Murphy Bed, electrocution/lightning strike for the shock value (yeah, that’s a pun, oh well). That said, when I want someone to go I just Send Them To The Pool.

      Which new Woohoo Location would you like to see in future packs or updates? I loved the photo booth in Sims 2. I used to have one on every public lot in order to make them happy. It cracked me up every time. I even put them in the shops. Of course, then I had to add a shower to every public lot too, LOL. If they add a farming/medieval pack they simply must add woohoo in a haystack, with the option of ending the woohoo abruptly if someone is stuck by a needle. :)

      Which new Death Type would you like to see in future packs or updates? I keep expecting someone to get killed by being ridden over by a bike! These guys can’t drive. If they do a farming pack or add cars I know everyone will want death by tractor or car, but they’d never do that. They could also add being kicked/trampled by cows/horses, or a stampede!! I am envisioning a stampede of assorted barnyard animals right now – it is made up of crazed chickens, glaring goats, slavering sheep, chomping cows, harried horses and pulverizing pigs. Yeah, that would be great!! I wish all the occults had more violent attacks, up to and including death. We need werewolf attacks now! Didn’t we used to have a death by fear caused by a ghost? I think that should come back. Maybe they could add snow falling off a roof and killing a sim in Seasons LOL. If they do a Winter vacation pack someone should be killed by avalanche or skiing into a tree or off a cliff. (I just triggered my “you are being insensitive button” but I have to remind myself - it’s just a game. It’s not real. It’s like a cartoon you can play. And you can go back to the last save if you don’t like it) Ok, let’s have an alien attack!

      Do you think Woohoo is appropriate for this game? If not, why? Sure. It’s a life simulation game so it is appropriate, especially since it’s mostly unshown.

      Do you purposely kill your Sims, do you let autonomy do its job, or are your sims Immortal? I play with Aging Off. Very rarely do one of my sims die of old age – and my favorites are not allowed to die. If one of my sims or a premade sim annoys me too much, however, it’s Pool Time. I have let them die by accident (fire, electrocution, etc) but not one of my very favorites. They are not allowed to die. The death by fire creeps me out (I have to really hate a sim to set them up for that), and I bet death by flies would, too.

      Do you think Death should be handled differently? No, I think it’s handled just fine, although most of the surviving sims should be afraid of Grim. I read Terry Pratchett, and I love seeing Grim/Death dropping by. I miss his horse, though (yeah, I really want horses in the game).
