Pets : The Sims 4

So, the Pets expansion pack came out for the Sims 4 and I bought it as a nameday gift for myself in November. Shoulda waited until Christmas when there was a 50% sale... oh well!

Anyways, it's quite fun. It's a shame you can't really "control" the pet or see their needs in the UI like in previous Sims games.

 

My first pet was a cat because naturally cats are easier to take care of. Since I put them in ready-made families I adopted them. This is Sebastian and his cat. This kitty looks pissed all the time and it's very typical for cats.

 

And yeah I let the cat jump on counters, tables etc. In games it doesn't bother me, in real life the cat usually isn't allowed on some tables. Ironically the cat got "stuck" because it jumped on the fridge but couldn't get down because the counter had a coffee machine on it. Had to put the coffee machine on another counter so the cat could get down. So that's a thing.

New families : The Sims 4

I've been lagging with the character development post (I have a draft that is just a headline sitting but I doubt I''ll get to it too soon) so I'll post more about games. This time The Sims 4 since with a new computer, comes new experiences. Mostly the custom hair looks nice and loading times aren't abysmal so I can enjoy get to work and going to festivals.

The twins indulging in creative activities - Veronica plays the piano while Tobias paints. None of them are all that artistically inclined canonically but whatever. Technically Vera would struggle with playing an instrument since she's blind but in Sims 4 land is "anything happens" AU!

Sims 4: New year, new game, new impressions.

So, haven't updated this blog for about half a year. Now it's 2017. Needless to say I drifted off from Granado Espada again and sorta stopped having a reason to write in this blog. I'm mostly playing offline games now or watching play-throughs. Though sometime around the beginning of January I got into sims 4 - the game had a huge sale so I get the digital deluxe version for like 25 euros which was a catch for a 60/70 euro game.

Anyways! Nobody cares about pricing, everyone cares about the sims.

So far I've made three households, first was a random character for trying out. Then I downloaded some mods/custom content and made my OCs.

First family was my newer characters, Mikhail (Misha), Cecilia, Ben and Sebastian.

Misha is childish, mischievous and a slob. He is actually my favorite dude of the bunch because he turned out handsome and also because I love his goofy personality. His hair looks a bit bad in this picture as I can't play on high settings and the custom content waters down on lowers. His hair should be a deep red! 

Other than that, he is in the criminal career and brings the big dosh home. 

Looking for frogs.
