I actually never played a Sims game. D;

Now's the time. Sims 4 is free on every platform you can play it on.

I think I broke my hamster guys.

Just got to wait 3+ years for a scuffed PC port, what's there to be mad about?!

Hopefully we should get a PC version in 2024, however I am worried about a terrible port instead of it having a dedicated PC version being made. Still really frustrating to know I have to wait another 6+ months to play it because I have no want to buy a PS5 for a singular game.

Honestly same here. My country gets shafted hard when it comes to gaming because it's not considered as a worthy market by many companies, and consoles are really expensive here. Only ever had a second-hand PS3 I got from my brother in Australia. Besides... I personally find consoles a massive palaver. I get why console companies go hard on exclusives - especially looking at you Nintendo - and that it's business, but they leave a bad taste in my mouth. Wish the game creators made better ports. I remember buying FFIX on Steam and for some reason it's configured by default to use a controller and needs some diving-in to fix to use KBM (since OFC you can't change that in-game). It made me so mad that I didn't even bother touching it again.

Edit, I completely forgot I used to have a Nintendo 3DS. Think I blocked it out from my memory because it was so darn expensive to buy + get the games for. I bought the cartridges for 4 times the price of a dedicated PC game at the time.

So...Sims 4 is free on all platforms and last night I was in the mood to play it on PC. So I make my Sim...which is just a replica of me. I make my looks and his characteristics are Good, geek, book nerd...stuff like that.

I start to play...and my dude some how pisses of every single woman he talks to. Because of the Good perk he can apologize and I seem to do it several times a conversation every time I somehow make them mad.

10/10. So very true to life! Will play again tonight.

Only reason to play The sims is too create the most screwed up disfunctional family or person possible. Love fact that you made one without even trying that just pisses women off rofl

Now go play Sims 3 and go down that rabbit hole. I own the whole thing (and 90% of the store) and every once in awhile, it pulls me in.

Just had to end a friendship with a friend I've known for at least 5 years now. His anger and rage have been just getting so horrible, and he has burned a lot of bridges due to it. But I finally hit my limit, I can't deal with it anymore. I'm tired of the excuses for not seeing a therapist, of the constant blowups, of just never knowing when I can even talk to him without him going off about something. It hurts like hell, but if my leaving finally sets him straight, then good, let it. He'll just have to deal with the pain of losing a close friend for the rest of his life.

Friend of mine is playing another game and we have absolutely no idea what's going on in the screenshot he posted.
