Si quelqu’un me disait aujourd’hui que je dois retourner au lycée, je pourrais avoir une petite depression, mais l’école dans Les Sims 4 Années de lycée semble en fait être une assez bonne façon de passer quatre ans dans le jeu de life. Game director George Pigula and lead designer Jessica Croft said during a press preview that the team put a lot of time and effort into making the teen and high school experience as authentic as possible. taking inspiration from classic CW and Disney movies. as well as more serious ones like Euphoria in progress. From what we saw during the preview, it seems that they even outdid themselves. From high grades to nasty breakups, high school in The Sims 4 is one place you probably won’t want to leave after you graduate, as long as you don’t get kicked out first.
High School Years promises to be one of the most comprehensive expansions for The Sims 4 to date, with several strong new systems and ways to help your Sim progress. Unsurprisingly, the really diligent (or not) school experience is a big part of the expansion. You go to class, study for tests, hang out in the cafeteria at lunchtime, and try to find clubs that match your Sims’ interests so you can eventually make new friends and fulfill your aspirations.
The High School Years introduces a new set of teen and school-related aspirations like Drama Llama (self-explanatory) and Fast & Free (no rules, no worries). As with childhood aspirations, they should be achieved by your Sim while still a teenager, and can help influence their future growth in life, such as college if you have a college pack.
Also new is a revamped fear system. Maxis will add it to the base game in a free update, and High School Years will also feature a set of high school scares. Your Sims can develop these blocks based on experience, fears such as fear of failure, or if your Sim sees fire at a young age, fear of fire. They can get through it with effort, and it’s worth it. Left alone, fears can end up preventing your Sim from getting the job or relationship of their dreams.
There’s an art club, soccer and cheer team, chess, computer lab and more to help your Sim achieve their goals and learn new skills, while the mischievous can spend their time fighting, competing, joking, sneaking around . he left the house at night and was arrested.
If you dismantle the school and leave a classroom out in the open for detention, since the entire school is set up until the classroom is up and running, it might not be too bad.
Along with the emphasis on customization, Croft and Pigula said that one of the guiding design principles of the high school years was to create a more subtle system of relationships. A whole new set of sexual orientation choices is born from this, but it also means that your actions in general have more serious consequences. Pranking your friends can be a fun way to spend the day, but they will start to lose faith in you and eventually leave if you keep this up.
On the brighter side of the relationship spectrum is the new crush option, which lets your Sim have fun dreaming up the perfect relationship and maybe even pursue it if they play their cards right.
There are other ways to repair broken relationships and create new ones besides spending time in school. Pretty much anywhere on the Copperdale map is a potential hangout, even if you’re just lounging on a couch by the river. The main attraction, however, is Plumbit Pier, the perfect place to spend a Saturday night or Wednesday afternoon if you miss a class, with a variety of activities ranging from trips and a photo booth to a house nice to meet you. Each activity on the pier has new unique woo-hoo and death animations, because who doesn’t want to woo in a photo booth before dying on a Ferris wheel?
At the end of all the secret hobbies, nasty breakups, and unforgettable weekend nights, comes ball and ball. The dance is fully customizable, from the outfit you choose to who you dance with and whether or not you attend. Graduation is the final event, and it may not even happen if you don’t put in the effort and do your homework. It has the desired effect on your academic prospects, but it’s not the end if you fail or get expelled. Instead, your Sim can get a degree online, or if she’s a skill level five or higher, she can still get college offers.
The High School Years expansion is packed with changes big and small that seem to make it the most interesting and challenging expansion yet, and even that’s not all there is to offer. There is a completely separate set of actions and changes for self-expression that allows you to tailor almost any aspect of your Sim’s adolescence.
If you’re looking for more ways to customize your Sims games, there are plenty of The Sims 4 mods out there that will change almost every aspect of the game. You can also tweak its rules to your heart’s content with an incredible variety of cheats, including Easy Ways to Earn Money and Defy Death.
