Books Written In-Game
I think there's some missed opportunities here with the books Sims are able to write themselves in The Sims 4. Why can't they be purchased by Sims in other Households in the same world? At bare minimum, these should be added to the books available to purchase in the bookcases. In a perfect world, I'd like to see Sims able to sell books in a plopsy situation, similar to buying books from online retailers, or to the e-book service that sounds like Kendall (Jenner)... Maybe as a small business, Sims could stock their own bookstores with books they've written themselves or with books bought from other sims somehow. It would be cute to pick and choose which books you wanted in your store. (Examples include a super-girly romance bookstore and a super-creepy horror bookstore, or a small-on-space bookstore selling your top favorites of each genre.) There would need to be some way to display individual books without full bookshelves though, so customers could better see each item. When I have tried to do this myself, I've struggled to find a way to display individual books. Some retail tables allow a few to stand on top, but so few that this is an impractical way to stock a whole store. The small square box wall shelves work to store individual books as well, but the books are positioned laying down instead of standing up where you could more clearly see the cover. Speaking of covers, it would be nice if sims could further customize the books they create with a selection of covers they could choose from. Perhaps sims with high painting/photography skill could design their own book covers or use art they've painted/photographed from reference. It could be interesting to see sims choose how to advertise their own indie-published book, or choose to publish through a larger publishing house with an advertising plan. Maybe sims could go on book tours to promote their newest release, hold signings in public venues, etc. It would be so fun to see a book do really well and have the option to adapt it into a screenplay that would be made via sims in the acting career, as book-to-movie adaptations are growing increasingly popular in recent years. The demand is high, books are back. One of my favorite hockey teams recently had a theme-night at their arena with a fantasy romance author. The book was about dragons and had nothing to do with hockey, so it was a surreal matchup for me, but not an unwelcome one! Rappers are releasing songs about top romance novels now, too. My last suggestion is keeping an in-game accessible list someplace of all the books my sim has written, because as of right now I've been keeping a list IRL in a notebook beside my computer to record the titles as I choose them, because I like to use the titles of my favorite real life books and once you've written so many it's hard to keep track. Once I sell them, I can only see the titles in the notifications that come each morning about royalities, and as I recall once you write so many it stops showing them all. The in-game notebook will only hold 250 characters (or so) of text, and there's not enough space to type them all there. Thank you so much Sims-4 team for the writing award at the starlight accolades! I've really enjoyed going to the ceremonies (and even sometimes winning!) when my Sim has had a particularly popular release.34Views2likes3CommentsCamera framing keeps resetting
I prefer the default high framing camera when it comes to a skating around San Van and on occasion the game will reset it to the low framing camera causing me to go to the setting and manual set it to high framing again. I have to do this probably once every 20-30 minutes. What’s even more frustrating is when it resets during a challenge and I am unable to access the setting menu unless I abandon the challenge. It seems like a minor issue but please fix this so I can save what little sanity I have left. Thank you!General feedback and why this skate game is worse than all the others
Why did you replace the cameraman with a stupid soulless AI voice. In all the other skate games the "3rd person camera" was supposed to be a cameraman following you recording all the cool stuff you did, the cameraman had voice lines too, and would comment if you slammed hard, now its just some idiotic soulless "AI assistant". WHY GET RID OF COACH FRANK AND REPLACE HIM WITH SOME IDIOT NAMED SLAPPY??? This is one of the changes I'm most angry about, Coach Frank was such a staple of the Skate series by the time this game came out that its so stupid to replace him with some idiot named "sLaPpY"??? The people that took over skate at EA after they executed BlackBox (the people who made the good skate games) have done nothing but destroy the legacy that Skate had. The only thing playing the new skate game does is with they had just rereleased Skate 3 on pc with some new maps. This whole game (if you can even call it that) just **bleep** on everything the first 3 skate games built. shame on everyone involved.Camera angles are terrible in RTG
Why are the camera angles for this game terrible? The camera angles are not great at all for playing CB or defense altogether. EA, you should have just kept the original angles from NCAA25 because at least the wide camera angle actually showed the entire team and lineup on the field. I was able to actually see my player and see the angles I needed in order to make a tackle, int, pass deflection, or stop a touchdown overall. Y’all literally tried to fix something that really wasn’t broken. Do not be like 2K sports and ruin a decent game trying to change gameplay as far as controller and visual dynamics go! The camera angles for defense is a no go and I think y’all should really consider changing back to the original camera angles. If Madden 26 has the same issues in Superstar Mode, I guarantee that players will no longer want to invest their time and money in future projects.Feedback add on
Would be pretty cool if we could save our outfits and skateboards separately I thought it would be cool to if we could spray paint our stickers or whatever… lastly the sticker on the board we need to be able to move them every where and reshape and re size like in forza on the cars that was my thought thanksYes it's free, but timing isn't...
This Deck The Palms login event was not it.. albeit, it was like the very first "log in event" where you just had to log in to claim rewards, which is easy enough! But during the holidays when people are the busiest? And if you don't log in e v e r y d a y, you'll MISS OUT?! So for those whom were traveling, studying or just can't get to their game for whatever reason, you say OH WELL!TOOBADSOSAD!? Not to mention this event wasn't advertised at all! I didn't even know until I logged in 1 day. Shameful.54Views3likes1Comment
