Why do the sims react negatively when the sim in military career tries to share war story

Because it's a pacifist game and war stories are a nightmare of the 1940s??

Are the sims you're talking to acquaintances, or are they good friends with your sim? I could see closeness having an impact.

To family members and her husband.

Depending upon the relationships of your sims, it could be many things. If the relationship is not close, that is only a topic to have with other military members (or their families or close friends) at least IRL. If they are close friends and still react negatively, I have a suspicion that none of the gurus actually know the true reactions between military veterans. But, that is just coming from an individual who grew up with a parent in the USAF.

The relationship is fully filled and romance relationship too but still react negatively. But is it maybe related with 'defeating mother plant'? If she didn't, then would it be considered as a fake story?

Edit: By the way, what are the IRL and USAF meaning? I'm not an English native. :)

Thanks very much! Now i understood all. :D Because I remember my sim got that interaction with other sim after defeating mother plant. He was not in military though. I think I still have the sim in my game somewhere. :D I can test with him. thanks. :D

Try it with other military people. It might be a take on the old joke about being bored to tears by grandpa's old war stories.

Thanks. :D

IRL is In Real Life
USAF is United States Air Force
If the "war story" is only supposed to be related to defeating the mother, then that is just dumb to only relate it to a single event. That still means the game developers know nothing about military. Sometimes war stories just include being deployed to locations of conflict.

Thank your parent for their service, please.
