Hi BarMaster71
formative moments are a separate system. They are not part of the want/fear system.
Could you post a pic of the want you're getting for them ? What fears are you getting ?
I understand what Formative Moments are, but nonetheless, there have been new wants added to the game that relate to AA specific gameplay. One such want reads: "Acquire a Childhood Formative Moment as an Adult" with instructions to visit the Rewards Store in the Aspiration Panel, then purchase a Childhood Formative Moments Trait. I'm unable to post a picture at this time, and I don't know how to better explain it. Those words I typed in bold appear in a thought balloon above the Sims portrait just as any other want does. Just like "Listen to Hip-Hop Music" or "Meet Someone New." But as I mentioned, I have Wants & Fears disabled.
So like this: Certain Wants and Fears despite option turned off | EA Forums - 5055659 ?
It happens for several specific wants only but that's what you're seeing, right ?
What fears to do get though ? Ive adjusted the title a bit more to make it distinct from the other. Maxis will need to decide if they want to track this separately
Yes, that's what I'm seeing.
And I'm not seeing fears. I only referred to it as "Wants & Fears" because that's what the system or mechanic is called in the game. It's just Wants that are the issue. It's been doing that with other Wants as well (romantic Wants, largely) but I've dealt with that until now by turning Wants & Fears on and off again. It's not ideal, but that's how I've been getting rid of them.
This is different, though, because that Formative Moment Want is relentless. It keeps coming back. The only way to be permanently rid of it is to fulfill the want by doing as it instructs and choosing a trait. But I'd rather decide for myself when or even if I want a given Sim to choose one of those traits. I already know that the option is there and that I can exercise the option whenever I choose. I don't need the game busting through my settings just to keep pestering me about it.
