I was expecting a 9 or 10 and got a 3 instead. It completely ruins my storytelling.
But why? In what way? Was it the child that froze to death on the bunny slopes?
I know this may be an unpopular opinion, but I feel like the sims are too autonomous now. I’m a storyteller and I generally guide my sims through their lives the way I want them to go. Now, they’ve gained too much independence, to the point that it feels more like an ant farm than a storytelling game. I’m okay with them being autonomous because it gives me ideas for the story, but now they keep tearing the story into an entirely different direction, which a lot of people love, but personally, it drives me crazy. (However, this may be because I’m primarily an author rather than a gamer.)
:( That is really sad. They should have added a sentiments turn off button. Options are important. I have to say I am happy about the update because I do need my sims to mix it up a bit for entertainment. However, I do understand how things can be intrusive. For instance, I do not want them to ever add story progression because that would be intrusive for me. If they add it, I hope I can turn it off.
