Fukuda is a common Japanese surname, not a swear word
I was playing in Mount Komorebi when my Sim encountered a local townie. The townie in question was wearing a hideous outfit but otherwise was rather good looking so I took him into CAS and gave him a makeover (I normally just delete townies who are horrifying to look at). I didn't change his name. When I was exiting CAS, the game gave me a warning that the Sim's name contains a forbidden word. Excuse me? First of all, I didn't name this Sim, the game randomly generated his name. Second of all, Fukuda is a normal Japanese name, there's nothing inappropriate about it and it's ridiculous to censor it. For the immature minds at EA: Sorry to disappoint you, but Fukuda is not even pronounced similarly to the famous English swear word.
Can't slot xenopetrium into Element Display Rack
I am having an issue with the Element Display Rack with one of the elements named "Xenopetrium" not wanting to go into the the display rack. I have no issues with any of the other elements in the pack but the xenopetrium element. I am using the standard edition on PC. I have not had an issue with this until the drag and drop issue. After the patch fix to address the drag and drop the only thing I can't drop into its slot is the "xenopetrium" element. Edit By Crinrict: Adjusted Title to better reflect the issueGive us an option to play the world without the pack features!
I would love if we could turn off all pack features and be able to play in the worlds without being forced to have back to back ailments or the phases that come with teens. Also, why can't we limit aliens to Oasis Springs and Limit Spellcasters to their world and Limit Vampires to their world. *Turning of Balance does not stop ailments 25 years playing this game and the idea of the packs far outweigh the reality 90% of the time. At this point, I'd be willing to pay a smaller amount of money to get new worlds(empty or not). I just don't want any more features that ruin my gameplay and force me into a certain type of playstyle without having an option to play as I want to.
⚔️ Maxis vs Basegame Skills
Hi, Some skills are updated and others are completely ignored. Maxis "favorite" skills : Cooking / Gourmet Cooking / Mixology Fitness Fishing Gardening Handiness : Finally woodworking gets new recipes and a kit brought restoration Photography / Painting : sims can paint anything Video gaming : Some games used to be added years ago Neglected skills : Comedy : No new jokes. A jester would have more to offer (acrobatics, juggling, performing magic tricks, jokes in song). It could also include mime. Guitar / Piano / Violin : No new songs. Maybe with Showtime EP we will get something. Mischief : No new voodoo doll powers or mischievous interactions Programming : No new hacks Writing : No new books . Maybe potions, magic spells and voodoo curses could be a knowledge that the sims should write in a grimoire (Magic book of Family recipes protected by a spell). Career books could be a way to boost the performances (efficiency gain) "Dead end" skills ? : Charisma : Many features already boost the relationships. Logic : Do the sims never use their brain ??? No it doesn't count when zombies eat it. Rocket Science : New rockets ? But to do what ???
Additions to Ranch Hand
I love the ranch hand mechanic from the Horse Ranch expansion, however, I think it would benefit from more options: Interactions with the Bee Box from the Seasons expansion, mainly applying the mite treatment Interactions with the Insect Farm from Eco Lifestyle expansion, mainly feeding the insects The ability to clean the chicken coops from the Cottage Living expansion, I am unsure if this is already available but I have yet to see it happen... The ability to fill the Bird Feeder from the Backyard Stuff expansion These are all outdoor activities that involve food/farming and animals in some way, and I feel like it would not be a stretch to have the ranch hands perform these duties.
Suggestion: Relatives cheat for shift-click
Can we have an option to make sims relatives (or not) with the shift-click cheat? This is the most easy and useful cheat (at least for me) and would be a great way to turn existing sims from different households into relatives, a thing that we usually have estabilished with lore but not within the game itself.
What would you want with Ina island living refrsh?
Island living is often regarded as small pack.I think a refresh will do some good 1.Revamped mermaids I feel like mermaids get a bad wraped. Adding new powes and maybe a mini skill tree could be ideal.Adding more actions ,you can do underwater. Like maybe you can have rabithole option to grabbed fish or find treasure underwater.Maybe add the ability for other mermaids can like another supernatireaul make humans mermaids by a kiss. Make a couple hidden undwater lots. For the human side island living.There is a lot of polyesean culuture.So maybe they can add dancing or Hulu dancing. Maybe evan be able teach others how to dance. Life gaurds should be a small active non rabbit hole carer. What things you would like to see in an island living refresh?
[EBN] Enchanted by Nature is the first EP I've truly regretted purchasing.
Playing with a brand new Save in a brand new The Sims 4 folder. No mods. No CC. It's a beautiful World .... but: My game has crashed 4 times in 2 days. I rarely have a game crash. I can't repair my game because "We've paused the download because you don't own this title." The Balance and Luck systems overwhelms all other gameplay. The method for monitoring Balance and Luck is buried in the Simology tab. Making it difficult to keep tabs on whilst playing. Especially when playing with multiple Sims. Balance and Luck change dramatically, suddenly and inexplicably. E.G. My Sim is fine. Needs are fine. Suddenly he's not caught a fish and his luck is bad? His Balance has plummeted? And now he has some ailment he can't afford to cure so he has to abandon all else to go off in search of a cure. And my Sim hasn't even made it to becoming a Fairy. Sheesh. Back to my regular game. Looking to relax so I open up the household of my nice elderly retired Sim. Of course she's cooking. Of course she catches on fire. Plum. Bad Luck. Out of Balance. Argh. Turned it all off. I am not enchanted.
