- Hermitgirl5 years agoSeasoned AceI play a lot of single sims so it's easy to meet all the other needs. It's not a big deal but sometimes they are about to go to work and their social is dipping yellow or orange... and I have to try to send them to do something for awhile to get that need up.
- hunger (because they take 5 years to eat) and social (even lone wolf sims aren't safe from this incessant need :# )
- marea_a_moon5 years agoSeasoned AceI didnt even notice social was a need because i never had to take care of it, i assume they fill it by themselves which is great to me because i cant be bothered with needs sometimes. Also, their fun is rarely in the red which is great too! I think energy causes me annoynce the most because it takes longer than the others but i cheated all needs so many times before when i did not want my sims to stop what i wanted them to do.
- NateWhiplash5 years agoSeasoned AceI voted for a combination--my Sims always have to pee, and they're always tired. Social or fun is never a problem--my Sims do a lot of travelling, as I try to get them out of the house at least once a day

- JoRN14145 years agoSeasoned AceSocial for me too. It used to be fun though, until I discovered that my Sims could wear earphones while doing anything and raise that level.
- DoloresGrey5 years agoSeasoned AceI hate to socialize IRL and in game even more. Sims are so needy with this one I HATE it. I always buy the never needs anyone trait.
It would be much better and easier if group activities actually raised their social need. Like playing don't wake the llama etc. So many group activities don't raise it up. Even watching movies together or such should raise this need up. - MDianaSims5 years agoSeasoned AceIt really depends on the type of household, the type of sim and the type of furniture (for fun/energy and sometimes even hygiene). Most of my single sims without pets struggle with the social need. The poor sims have problems with the fun and energy needs, the collectors have issues with hygiene. As for large households or really rich households, the bladder need can be a challenge because of a lack of toilets (nearby).
I do sometimes use reward traits that affect need decay, but never the ones that remove the decay completely (except steel bladder sometimes). Which trait depends on the sim and my plans for them. - SimAlexandria5 years agoSeasoned AceNone cuz I cheat needs to stay full lol
- ChampandGirlie5 years agoSeasoned AceFun, because that is often dependent on gaming and electronics. Sometimes I'm fine with that but sometimes I want them to have fun in other ways. I would like fun to be more complex, more trait dependent and even then more variable.
