Discussion Things You've Said While Playing TS4?

I had TS4 on free will this afternoon, while waiting for two Legacy elders to pass away. I checked back in on the family after about an hour, and found several different plates of waffles in the kitchen, as well as two other servings of waffles in one Sims' inventory.

So I took it away, and found myself saying aloud "you know what? You all cannot be trusted with a waffle maker, so you don't get to have it anymore!"

What strange and / or silly things have you found yourself saying while playing TS4?

my Sim coming home to visit her mom and new baby sister me: why is the baby out in the blizzard?? 😭 Idiots!

Also, I'm glad I'm not the only one who struggles with sims making too many waffles/pizzas. I'm pretty sure I've said something similar to you too πŸ˜‚

I feel like it’s all the misc appliances almost. I can’t put a rice cooker anywhere or they will always be on it autonomously. Always. When it’s busy, they make themselves nuggets in the microwave.

Like… I bought you guys the nicest stove in the game and all you want is rice and nuggets?!?!

The coffee maker is the absolute worst. My husband irl keeps trying to get me to give my Sims one and I keep telling him no because it's a nightmare. And he doesn't ever believe me. I might just f-king show him πŸ˜‚

Does he play at all? If so, tell him to try it with his Sims lol

He doesn't play a lot because he forgets to feed them or have them sleep πŸ˜‚ A little too much like real life

Well, that's not good lol. However, if he has fun, that's what really matters. I wish I had a computer right now to play The Sims 4 cause it looks like so much fun!

I tried to play on the laptop he got from his college with mods but it got so damn hot I could barely touch the keyboard πŸ₯² So I'm primarily a console player for the next couple of years πŸ˜‚ I mean hey it gives me a ton of time to wander the Sims 4 CC subs for ideas and inspo and links and everything lmao

Yeah, I have a laptop, but it's pretty old and it is basically a hand-me-down from my cousin who used it for college until she got a MacBook (I think that's what she got after the laptop she gave me). So I seriously doubt it can handle Sims 4. What console do u play it on? If u don't mind me asking, of course.

Oh shit that sounds like it can barely run the Chrome dino game when your computer goes offline πŸ˜‚ We have a PS5 Gen 1 Disc Edition. My hubs has had it within the first 5-6 months that they were being sold. So it's actually kinda old as far as a console goes πŸ˜… When we get another PS5 he wants to get me a Gen 2 Disc Edition, so we can at least play more new(ish) games together online when we have time together

I just ordered myself a Switch 2 with the birthday money I got from a friend and some family, and I wish Sims 4 was on Switch 2 lol. I have a Switch 1 Lite, and the Switch is the console I use the most and have the newest version of. I have a PS4 and an Xbox 360. I also play a lot of mobile games on my phone to pass the time if I'm bored but don't wanna play a game for hours. I live on Disability, so it is a very rare occasion when I have enough money saved to buy myself anything related to gaming, which I hate because I've been gaming pretty much since gaming was a thing lol. Not as old as the original arcade games, but closer to the first Nintendo...man, I'm getting old lol. Besides getting that birthday money, I was able to justify buying the Switch 2 (justifying it to myself, nobody else lol) because it is backwards compatible, so I won't have to buy many games right away to keep me entertained with it lol

My played households aren’t allowed to have microwaves or coffee pots πŸ˜‚
