No fairies? Here's what (maybe) went wrong...
Just for fun... maybe. So, imagine a meeting taking place at the The Sims 4 Developing Team Center HQ, 25th floor. Let's assume the CEO of this division is named Mr John, and head of the team for the next pack is Hugo (who might need to consider some hearing aid). Mr John: So, let's start our meeting. Hugo, are you ready to present us, the board members, with the progress so far? You got the case during a very busy (vacation) period, so we are now very excited to get an update on your work with this new pack. Hugo: Sure, Mister! The new pack looks... well, interesting, and definitely something most simmers never played with before in the sims. I'm thrilled to tell you guys more. Mr John: Please move forwards. Some of us can stay for only 15 minutes. Hugo: Sure! Let's dive into The Sims 4 - The Ferry! Mr John: Ferry? Hugo: Yes, it will be great! The title can of course be adjusted as we see needed. The core features are what we worked the hardest on, and I have not forgotten what you told me about so many fans requesting a Ferries pack. Mr John: No, wait! I never said anything about ferries! I told you about so many requesting FAIRIES! That's not the same! Have your team spent 6 months on developing ferries for the game? Hugo: Jupp. It was quite difficult as we were told there is no plans to add cars to the game, and, well, you know. A ferry with no cars would need something else... than cars... Mr John: (breathing heavily) Hugo: We created a brilliant ship that sims can walk into. We thought of adding a shuttle bus just to get them safely on board. And the new "I love ferries" trait caused some extra thinking. Randomly blowing a little whistle felt a bit narrow. But we figured it would be better focusing our talent on the features inside the ferry. Mr John: (grunting to himself) Talent? Hugo: The ferry has about 10 different settings. Settings can only be changed before walking on board. One setting is floral decoratives including tons of garden gnomes and butterflies. Another is a dark inferno where the simmer must try to avoid that the ferry will sink - after all we don't know if Grim will refuse to go underwater to collect souls. Another setting is a jolly Winterfest shopping ferry, with plenty of small shops, kiosks and activities, including 4 new collections. Aaand, we have one super exciting setting where it turns out that your sim by mistake joined a ferry booked by a large group of retired seniors, so your challenge will be to find the only Adult sim that is on the ferry that day - will be tricky because all seniors - men and women - have dressed up as Bella Goth... Mr John: Please stop! No theme involving fairies? Hugo: Yes, all of them involve the ferry! That's what this pack is all about! Leaving the harbor, then arriving another harbor and leave the ferry. Perhaps returning back home a few hours later. I just wish we had cars so that everyone could drive their car on and off the ferry, but to please the board we remembered to add a couple cars as dress setting. Mr John: Hugo, this is not what we asked you to develop! You are fired! Hugo: Thank you! Mr John: For what? Hugo: For you saying that I am hired! I appreciate that! Disclaimer: I'm pretty sure that neither the developing team nor the board work like this 😄
Breaking That Fourth Wall
I caught a really cute picture that made me think this would be a fun thread. Please post pictures of your Sim(s) that you caught breaking that proverbial fourth wall. For those who may be unsure of what this theatrical term means, it's when the Sim appears to be looking right at the player. Here is the picture I found so adorable. This is my Rock Star, Erik Cantrell, holding Melodie, identical twin A, as he's ready to place her in her crib for the night. https://i.imgur.com/uN4vO5B.jpg
Townie Fashion Police
Sul sul, Simmers. Townie Fashion Police was one of my favorite threads in the "old forum." It was always good for a few laughs. Z and I think it's time to bring it back, and so does our friend Daniel. When your festival attire is more outlandish than that of the cosplayer you're sitting with, that's a job for the Townie Fashion Police. "What did I do to deserve this?" Daniel asks the camera. At least he has a tasty cheeseburger to enjoy.Funny pics
Do you ever capture pictures from fun or awkward situations in your game? Often my sims will make me smile just because they did position weirdly, making a totally normal situation look funny. - Hello again, Hairdresser, I got a complaint! Your solution turned out to be unpractical. Are you sure I can't have a ponytail, without the horse?
Sim Cuddling Trash Bag
I thought my new Sim was being weird. Turns out she was just .... being weird. She'll produce a small trash bag out of nowhere and cuddle it. It's an animation that Sims perform when they have a trait from eco living, like freegan. When you look into CAS and choose that trait, they will hug their trash.

Patriarchal in Faces, Matriarchal in Nature
Hello everyone. This thread will be used to randomly update the story of the three boys in the thread "What Happened in Your Game Today" but a disclaimer that I'm new to these forums and haven't gotten the gist of how to use it. I'll learn to with time! But first, setting up the background story! These boys are actually Generation 2 of my save file. They're offsprings of my OCs (original characters). I'll also include (side)-stories of their relatives and friends. Rian Avion Nero Avion Saxan Tirall Their bio will be on each individual post after this. So um... yeah, please bear with me and I hope you enjoy their shenanigans!
