I have fond memories of TS2 servos and I'm pleased to see them return. They look really good and I like the maintenance part. Not sure yet how I'm going to incorporate them to my game... in TS2 my sister used to keep a robot shop and I think that's where my sims got their servos.

I am not sure if you watched the stream but they specifically mentioned how you can sell these in a shop in you have Get to Work!

Yes I watched it :smile: I'm definitely considering making a shop. I haven't really played retail though, so unsure if I want my played sims to run the shop.

Having retail shops of variety is fun in the game. In my save file I choose one person that owns most of the retail shops in the worlds and then set it up to my liking. I usually make my prices low. Once that is set up you can have your other sims visit these functioning retail shops with varying themes. It is so immersive and fun for storytelling. I always tell myself I am going to stop using build mode to buy certain things and pretend my sims have to go to the furniture store or a toy store for example. It's just another fun way to play retail without actually having to own and run the shop! :)

Thanks for sharing this idea I want to try this! ?
And I agree with your above post, I never grind on A pack until I get bored. I'm going to integrate university and its features slowly into my regular play style and stories. I might have a lot of complaints about sims but getting bored is not one of them lol. I still have things I have not even tried yet including retail. I'm going to try out your idea though.

In fact you just sparked an idea. I have a poor sim with barely any nice clothes to wear who I was planning on having her meet a rich vampire that helps her out. I'm going to use your retail method to build shops including a clothing mall or shop so they can have a grand time shopping for new stuff lol.

Never played with servos so this is going to be fun and exciting. I'm not really into robots but I will find a place for them in my game. That hover outfit for the sims was so cool I was amazed! :p

I'm very pleased that Sims 2 robotics have returned.

Yay! I am happy that I inspired you with ideas. I love making themed restaurants to visit too. Oh and by making I mean downloading from the gallery! I am not the best builder though with 4 I have built the most over past iterations. It makes the communities more alive in your game.
