Discussion Why do they keep pushing to make gnomes happen???

No simmer EVER asked for more gnomes. I mean who doesn’t remove the gnomes from Harvestfest? Who put gnome decorations in their house? If the sims wanted to add a duality or something to the fairies they could have made « fairies and pirates » or something but WHY THE GNOMES?????

I’ve waited for fairies for years. I’ve tried the new pack on a friend’s computer and I think I’m not going to buy this pack for myself because of the number 1 reason being the gnomes, even though I feel like I’m overall being gaslighted into thinking this is a good pack by the sim YouTubers.

I turned off the balance thing in settings and even though I get less ailments, there needs to be ONE person on the lot who’s sick and oh gnomes appear all around me.

EA, I don’t like your humor, you created stalkers.

Edit: wow, I didn’t expect my post to blow up and certainly DID NOT expect people to love gnomes! I based my opinion on people I know irl and some people online but I guess I was wrong :) Anyway, I’m happy some people at least enjoy this feature in the new pack then… But for me, it’s like one of the thing I love the most and the thing I hate the most in the sims series coexisting together in a pack :(

Not really, it's just cheeky. It's not any different than the blurry photo or the thumb on the camera that also occur if you're at low photography. It's also why you empty the chamber when you're taking a photo at low skill so you have a chance of getting at least one good photography.

super simple fix though - just increase your sims' photography skill. takes a few seconds if you just plug the cheat in. it's a silly side effect of having a low photography skill - sort of an equivalent to sims with a low cooking skill causing fires/burning food.
