    Stella's situation makes me feel sad... it's heavily implied that Morty dragged his family to Riverblossom Hills and she feels isolated and lonely in such a small town. I always let her find love some way. She's usually a lot happier as time goes on.

    So I'm assuming you typically use a mod that gives Plantsims all life stages? Because if not, Daisy will be A LOT older than Tommy :D They would make a cute couple, but since I don't use that mod, I paired her up with Leod and they were perfect together ❤️
    There's this weird "tube" house in RH that has a beach vibe in the back yard and that's the house I would choose for Alexandra :D
    Great video! Really made me think if some intentions the creators could've had :D

    • @PleasantSims
      @PleasantSims  4 роки тому +29

      No, I usually just don't age her up until Tommy is an adult to "simulate" childhood. But I just found out about the mod and think I'll use it instead. I really don't play Plantsims very often.

    Maxis do things half-assed? NOOoooo! :D I haven't played Riverblossom hills in ages but I did try it once. I think the plantsims are interesting but I really feel that Maxis could have fleshed them out a little more. I think going from toddler to adult leaves out a lot of opportunity for them. Skip childhood maybe and go to teen, then, at least, I could send them to college which I think would be fun. Imagine a plantsim that can party all day and all night but still needs to keep hydrated and needs that sunlight. The way they are I just find them kind of boring. The Ottomas are such an interesting family and I've added them to hoods before but have never really played them fully unfortunately. And don't get me started on maxis houses. Ugh. Like homes that look great, at first, until you try having sims actually Live in them! Then you find that you can barely fit a single bed in one of the bedrooms. It just drives me nuts.

    I will never forget the first time I played the Ottomas family. The mother gave birth to a single baby boy, no twins. And her husband wasn't the father... The oldest son was!! I was so shocked when I saw the family tree!! I don't know if anyone else had a similar experience. It was for the disc version, and it never repeated in a second save file.

    Riverblossom Hills is probably my favourite pre-made neighbourhood! I usually pair Sandra Roth with Joshua Ruben from Sim State University, while Jacob doesn't go to university. I also usually pair Betty with Catherine, although I think next time I'll figure out someone else for her. I do mess with the neighbourhood a lot, though--half the Sims get their aspirations changed. Alexandra and the Ramaswamis usually either stay in the bin or go Downtown if I feel like building one.

    I love Riverblossom! I usually let Stella divorce Morty and marry Leod after his first wife passes away(I shorten a little life of Betty, life on farm is not easy ;P). Morty and Alexandra are great work buddies and have chemistry so after few promotions Alexandra is happy to settle down with man who shares her passion for adventure. I think Sandra is too hyped about relationship so Jacob breaks up with her and get back with Jules. Of course Gabe and Patricia get married an have kids. Sometimes out of anger with mods I move out Jules to live alone as runaway teenager. Andrew and Cleo make good couple but later in life, she dreams about Leod for some time. Catherine has a lot romances and use elixir of life frequently(in her bio and household bio is information about wanting to cheat the death an live the longest). Xander Roth is gay and gets with biological Greenmans' son. Greenmans are the hardest for me. They life is pretty easy because of lack of many needs but they can reproduce easily so they do. In Sims 2 grand grandkids and gran grandparents don't recognise eachother as family and plantsim's childhood is very short... They are plants, they can do weird stuff, not very moral stuff to humans/Sims.

    So interesting how you set this up. My one concern for the pairings is Tommy and Rose. Rose goes from toddler to adult (correct?), so she would be way older than Tommy. But, since Rose's family started in Spring and everyone else is in Winter, maybe they miss a rotation or two? That would make it more even. I like to pair up my Sims and make it even too. My method is to add a family to even things out. Right now I'm playing Veronaville (thanks to your inspiration) and I plan to add a family of three women (1 elder, 1 adult, 1 teen) to even things up. I counted the college Sims too (thanks to your suggestion). Keep this up. It's very entertaining and helpful!

      I usually try to adopt in children/teens when needed, but I've never added adults or elders. That's a great idea! Yes, Plant Sims do go from toddler to adult (which I hate), but I just keep her stagnant while she waits for Tommy. Lol.

    Riverblossom Hills is probably the neighborhood I've played the least, not because I didn't like it but because my favorite families are in other neighborhoods, but I'm going to have to play around in it soon and see what's up. I also play on a wants-based system, and definitely see where the locked wants lead the story in this town. I also had no idea that the Ottomas family is supposed to be from there. One of my sims brought home Samantha from work and so I plopped them down in that neighborhood to keep corruption at bay.

    Thanks for the guide, Cindy! I thought I screwed up the neighbourhood storyline by creating my own sim in Riverblossom Hills, grabbing Cleo to live with him and have a kid, but it turns out I didn't (or at least not too much). Maybe now, since they have a kid, maybe it would be a good idea to storm back into Cleo's old house with the whole family, since they have more space. 😅 Hopefully Patricia won't feel claustrophobic.
