And here I am again with a new addition to Sims 4 and this time the developers really did their best, because the addition with a similar theme he was looking for fans for a long time. Therefore, many players, including me, jumped for joy.
You can already tell by the name in which direction this expansion is moving. However, I must not forget that, as before any major addition the base game has also received its own improvements. She totally fell in love with The Sims new life stage – baby. And why am I mentioning this? Because it is this stage of life that plays a relatively large role in the new expansion. So, if you are a player who has love to play with generations and creating branching and long family trees, so listen carefully.
In a new area that bears the name San Sequoia, you’ll find plenty of opportunities to experience the lives and adventures of your Sims. It is a seaside town with a fishing history, divided into three blocks with twelve lots.
In the city, you will find several residential buildings with new NPC families, as well as empty lots. Including one new type of land that holiday center. It offers many fun activities for your Sims, including new boards How assemble the puzzle and play the sim version of the erudite. In addition, he is ready to serve as a place for new family gatherings or the celebration of the birth of a child.
Now you can too visit the cinema. However, this is not an active plot. Unfortunately, the building functions only as rabbit sticks and thus you cannot enjoy the experience along with your sims.
In addition to the new social events already mentioned, you can also enjoy the new addition. sleepover or family visits. You can either plan it yourself or other Sims will offer to stay with you for a few days. These Sims will be in your house, but luckily you don’t have to do anything to keep them alive. On the contrary, they can be very useful when for example, they help with childcare or cleaning house.
You will get acquainted with the elements of a family game already in the very creation of the simulator. She has increased new family dynamics feature, which you can set in the same menu as relationships between sims in your household. This choice will affect how Sims behave towards each other in Life Mode, which will also help new sim preference settingswhich pertain to conversational topics or properties.
You can find out if the sims are compatible or not on relationship panel in live mode. This compatibility affects on the speed of building positive and negative relationships between sims, meaning that a sim who doesn’t like lazy sims will get along with them less than others.
Speaking of traits, so are you have undergone a transformation. The number of traits you can select in Create a Sim remains the same, but a Sim can now discover during their lifetime that he either prefers another or would like to get a new one. However, it’s still up to you to decide if this happens, so don’t worry about it ruining your Sim story plans. On the contrary, it can happen to you for example, to help with career or relationship advancement.
However, this can be done during the game. do proper cleaningespecially if you choose a Sim as a friend/partner who will show up as incompatible. In this case could be a problem build relationships in general gotta be careful with that. However, this again adds a bit of reality, because even in our world, not everyone gets along with everyone.
Of course, you can find it in Sim creation. new clothes and hairstyles for all ages, including babies. And there are also available for children four new aspirations connected with the new world and new activities. Finally, baby sims got they can learn to ride a bike, which adult Sims can either help them with or learn to slow down on their own. The problem I noticed while cycling is one of the animations, it looks pretty cool. Apparently this is a bug and I hope it gets fixed because kids need deformed lower limbs.
And now for everyone who does not like dentists – children are now alive teeth fall out (this feature is now temporarily disabled due to errors it caused for some players, editor’s note) and they can have them either squeeze or pull out. Although they really miss this tooth, they can hide it under their pillow and wait. Tooth Fairy He won’t leave a present. Don’t worry, if you don’t like the hole in your teeth, you can send your Sim to get it. it was fixed.
From children, there is another branch leading to younger sims, specifically to toddlers and babies. As I said, babies are a new stage in life and the supplement gives them completely different assessments. Se milestone system accessible to all stages of life with which expansion came, babies become recumbent and defenseless.
If you want them to be at least a bit independentyou have to teach them everything from the absolute top. From holding your head to standing on your feet. Simply put, they made children very realistic and for some even repulsively realistic sims. And just like babies in our world, they require a lot of attention from their parents, so they will not have much time to sleep, especially if you have more of these little things in the household. I really don’t recommend trying the challenge with seven babies. For your own good don’t do this as it will only make your Sim burn out or God forbid Middle age crisis!
Babies and toddlers were also given the opportunity to purchase special quirkswhich work similar to properties, except that each child element gaining gradually revealing the sorrows of life. You don’t have to worry about fad stereotypes because there are so many of them. really big amount. In this way, each infant and toddler will be completely unique in their behavior and expose the adults in your home, as well as you, to an even greater challenge.
Already mentioned milestone system works similarly memories. The principle is similar to The Sims 2, so it’s all the same important, but unfortunately also confusing writes an event to the Simology panel. The Sim can then remember those moments in their life and thus evoke a certain mood. I think it’s a big plus links between other additives. So your Sim can get a college milestone or get a pet.
And although this information is repeated over and over again, I cannot fail to mention that Fr.the content of this add-on should have been applied already in the base game. We got a baby, but with very limited features, so it only seems smaller version of babies. The base game doesn’t even have a changing table, we only got it in the expansion, which surprised a lot of players.
Unfortunately, it is also the rule that new DLC also means new bugs and non-functional mods. While the update that precedes each new expansion also contains many bug fixes from previous expansions, new ones usually arrive almost immediately after installing the add-on. In my case, these were, for example, kbabies in bath with adult sims feet. It didn’t happen to me every time, but when it did, it looked really scary.
I also stumbled repeating animation an infant change that could only be exited by rebooting the sim. These are not bugs that can cause the game to crash or seriously affect the gameplay. Nobody Fortunately, I did not catch a more serious bug and all the errors seemed to me rather comical. But unfortunately for other players with weaker computers caused problems related to game performance.
Although this is a big disappointment for me. no bonus content, which was due to be received by all owners of the expansion by April 27th. This is a mechanic that the developers have applied to the last three major expansions in order to give everyone who bought them the opportunity to release something extra. Unfortunately for us in the Czech Republic a recurring problem with this and many players will not receive bonus content. I was forced to write to support over and over again I didn’t get any results so I don’t have bonus content in the game.
In general, however, I am from the supplement excited. It lived up to my expectations, which can’t be said for some of the recent expansions. much diversify the gameplay and adds realism to both the behavior of Sims and their development, physical or mental. I definitely highlight milestone system, which basically functions as memories of important moments. For younger Sims, this serves as an indicator of what they have already learned and what they can improve. If you play The Sims 4, you should definitely I can recommend the supplement.especially if you like to play with families. And if you don’t play The Sims 4 but would like to give it a try, I can recommend an addon like great choice to diversify your gamewhich I would also choose among the first.
Verdict
In general, the expansion lived up to expectations, which can not be said about some recent additions. This greatly diversifies the gameplay and adds realism. It is necessary to single out a system of milestones, which basically works like memories. For younger Sims, this serves as an indicator of what they already know and what else they can learn. The add-on can be recommended to both existing players and new players.
