Darkest Gameplay Stories

When I used to have Sims 3 Supernatural, I had two married couples. One couple were a pretty Vampire & her husband a handsome hairy Werewolf. The second couple were a Handsome Genie/Wizard Hybrid & his pretty wife a fairy. The men were cousins & the women were cousins. The couples each had a child. One child was a boy with the Vampire/Werewolf Hybrid, the other child was a girl with the Fairy/Genie/Witch Hybrid. The children grew up, married eachother & had a human daughter. Poor girl she was a misfit in a family of Occults. lol.

Not sure I consider it dark - more like justice. In SIMS 2, Nervous Subject kills Loki Beaker, using the same machines they tortured him in, and brings him back as a zombie slave. He gets Circe Beaker pregnant and kills her after the baby is born and brings her back as a zombie slave. He has Grim Reaper babies and Grim is supposedly his father. He gets a makeover using the cosmetic surgery machine and marries the Bella of Strangetown and has more babies and lives a very happy life, though still conflicted about his mother, Olive Spector.

This made me chuckle.

I had a family on The Sims 3 which consisted of an evil vampire, his non-vampiric yet hideous brother whose skin was green, hair was coloured and had the most contorted face you could ever imagine (you'll see why). His wife was my main protagonist and they had a girl who was a slave as well.

The husband used to level his charisma and befriend everyone for his nefarious plans since he was a politician (fitting, I know). They would throw lavish parties in their dungeon and I would use a mod to get more than the usual limit of people to attend. Then I'd lock them in there. His hideous brother would "try for baby" with all the women. Initially, this took up a lot of time before I started using mods. Once it was successful after days of observing them in the dungeons, they'd be free to go. As for the men, I'd murder them or starve them in many ways.

When the former captive women gave birth their children were monstrosities; sometimes they bore green skin like the vampire's brother and other times they did not, however all of them had hideous features. One time Jocasta Bachelor gave birth to his daughter whose ears made me laugh so hard because of how badly it suited her face which had crooked jaws and an elongated nose area, fat neck, thin lips and with the twisted eyes too all from her father. Eventually the vampire got the house slave pregnant and sadly I tried to kill her but learned then that you can't kill pregnant sims, so I let the pregnancy finish while she starved in the dungeon. When she gave birth to a daughter, I fed the slave and then put the baby in a room until she was so neglected the social worker took the baby away and then I burned the slave alive with some other prisoners while she was depressed.

I usually treat my Sims well and this story is maybe more sad than dark. It happened when I had just started playing Sims1. I created my family, mom, dad and two kids, me being mom. I was happily playing with my family until one day "my oldest" was being sent to military school. At the time I didn't know I had to keep him "in the green" when I sent him to school! A few days later "my" husband had an accident with the barbecue! I was devastated!!!
After telling my son what had happened he said: Mom, you don't have to save your game! :s :| :)

Carfax Asylum's Dr. Seward in my game looked like a nice guy, acted nice outside of the asylum. Had many friends who thought what a nice, quite guy. :D But in the halls of the asylum you could hear the screams of his 'patients' who he had tortured with that career reward, lie dector chair and other things. Then if they wouldn't roll a different want/wish and have a 'break through' of rolling a differenet want outside their obsession to play with Mary, or kiss Charlie and or buy a game costing $15,000 etc. they would never be released from their cells, and would die in the asylum, because he gave it his all to get them to roll a different wish and break their addictions, lol, but if he couldn't cure them with his many methods, they were locked away forever and forgotten, as they slowly went insane and imagined the rabbit, the thearpist, the flour sack baby, mop dance partners, and eventually died of aspiration failure and starvation. >:) But it isn't because he didn't try to 'cure' them. >:) He used many methods, but shock thearapy was his favorite. :dizzy: Muhahaha

In Sims 2 I played a war/invasion story in Desiderata Valley that was pretty dark. Sims were driven out of their homes, died, got imprisoned, experimented on, even executed in some cases, switched loyalty, assumed false identities, had to flee, entered marriages just to turn the power balance around...
I was very invested in this story and literally cried when I finally achieved the Happy End.

In Sims 4 I had a werewolf preserve where they were treated as second rate citizens. There was no Happy End, because I lost interest in that save, but I reached an intermediate goal where at least my favorite families fled to Granite Falls.

My current Sims 4 save has widespread android slavery. Buying free as many androids as possible serves nicely to regulate the money flow in this save. Despite the theme actual gameplay is a series of small happy ends, so I guess this doesn't count. The darkest things that happened here were probably a criminal trying to poison the mayor, but his best friend ate the pufferfish instead (I rescurected the friend later) and the aliens being under the impression I need more babies and "helping" my sims with it.

I have a dark Sims 4 story. So I was playing with an EA Sim named Johnny Zest. He had a girlfriend. I was upstairs with another Sim when a few Sims were downstairs cooking. I didn't realize the house was on fire until I got the notification and went downstairs to find it was too late because Johnny had died. The worst part was, his girlfriend was pregnant with twins girls. When they became toddlers, I had them mourn for the father they never knew. It nearly broke my heart when I had the girl do that.

Most traumatic for ME: When I had a sim die from laughter and a decade later his sister also died from laughter. I needed a full on "juice" after that!

Most traumatic for THEM: the Vietnam war in my Decades challenge. I gotta post the screenshot for ya'll. It's something else.

One that was dark in a way but struck me funny as heck, was when my Vampire Hugo Villareal caught his brother Max (they were both adults and both vampires by then) with Hug's wife, at Club Nosferatu. Hugo went into an Enraged state, and went around the club Drinking Uncontrollably, all the humans! He was flitting from victim to victim in bat form, so I could barely keep up with him with the cursor, and he was filling up the club with urns and crying people! Note I was using mods for autonomous actions, realistic reactions to things like cheating, and also to enable death from drinking uncontrollably, as a vampire.

More recently, in a story I'm doing called The Legend of Forgotten Hollow (over at Archive Of Our Own now), a vampire who was a real piece of work, got parched, and while I was busy with other Sims trying to get screenshots for my story progression, darned if he didn't suddenly and autonomously attack Vlad's butler and Drink Uncontrollably! The two were pretty much enemies, but Vlad and his butler were romantically attached to one another, and Vlad flew into a passion and staked the vampire!

The thing that happened next was pretty astounding and I think a glitch of some sort: Talon (the vamp who attacked the butler) could not die, he just went into agonies of little embers flying up off of him, a big horrid chest wound, and Vlad covered in backspray. Caleb was there too and kicked Talon in the tenders for something he did to another character,

And I could not figure out why Talon could not seem to die! In fact right before Caleb kicked him, he was defiant in Caleb's face while burning!

So I did some things to remove some things that may have been interrupting the death process, tried an interaction called Suck Out Soul and THAT was dark, lemme tell ya! Really amazing visuals though! Talon's body levitating and draping from the waist, the worst facial expression ever, while ghostly forms and skull-like mists poured forth from him! Pretty epic. But then when that part was done, his body fell to the ground with eyes rolled back and mouth wide open, disturbingly corpse-like, and now his back arched and he went rigid and started shaking and making the worst sounds ever.

The other Sims were overcome with horror at what they were seeing and when Grim finally came, I was even wishing he'd hurry up and end it! And then when he stopped fiddling with his device and finally did the deed, it was so cool with huge blue flames and such!

So it was very dark, but very much an impressive and interesting spectacle.
