    Remember in Sims 2 when we got nightlife that was romance, vampires, nightclubs, cars and restaurants all in one. What a wonderful time that was.

    On the one hand, we sorely need a LOT more romance-focused interactions. On the other hand, I'm not looking forward to digging for them every time the cursed pie menu thinks my sim would rather "Support facial hair" or "Ask if mermaid" on their sexy date 🙄

      TwistedMexi released a mod for searchable interactions if you use mods. Literal game changer.

    • @wickywickyjoka
      @wickywickyjoka 21 день тому +4

      The pie chart just shows related interactions to the last social interaction you used before, when first pulled up. If no interactions were used prior, then it will give a general interaction for random categories to get you started. If you hit 'more' (usually at the top) it will show you a complete list of interactions, sorted by type, then subcategories. So for example, pull up the wheel> More choices> Romance> From there you can choose between flirt, affection, and physical interactions.
      If an interaction isn't listed anywhere, then it isn't available for the sims you are using to converse with each other. For example, you won't find Woohoo options for minors, or romance interactions for aromantic sims, and you won't find fight options for sims you have no bad relations with, unless it's brawl day.

    • @jackiedoesntcare
      @jackiedoesntcare 21 день тому +77

      @wickywickyjoka let me explain it in a nicer way since you're new here. I've seen the interactions a million times. When sims are speaking and building relationships I'm queuing up interactions while the current ones play out. You only have space for a handful in the que and they don't take 10 minutes to play out while you search for the next relevant interaction. Hope that helps!

    with hotels
    where sims can go on a honeymoon
    - around 3 new woohoo locations such as fountain, pool, sea
    - one-sided crushes and other sims flirting up and pursuing my sim cause I'm bored of having to initiate all the time, including stuff like a secret admirer, an annoyingly persistent suitor and receiving gifts and love letters (like in the Sims 2 after successful dates), especially my teen sim when they open their locker
    - an attraction system - would have been great tied together with a High School Years popularity system but that ship has sailed
    - childhood crushes
    - online dating
    - matchmaker career
    - heart bed and heart tub.

    Theyre definitely doing a Parisian world, and then I'm getting Trevi Fountain in Rome from the "fountain of desire" part. And it makes sense because both are locations associated with romance. If so, there's a good chance those packs will focus on the cultural aspects since both of them are very well-known tourist destinations.
    At least, that's kind of what I'm hoping for. If not then I'm tired and will ignore everything this "season"

    Teacher here: Going to correct you on the learned helplessness theory a little bit. You got the gist, where someone does give up when trying something difficult. It's more geared towards the idea that they'll give up because they've learned that is benefits them to do so when someone else steps in. "If I act helpless, eventually someone else will do it for me" is the thought process behind it. I've seen plenty of students with this and it is a beast to overcome.

      Also a teacher and I hate it when I encounter a child who does this. I once had a girl who literally refused to do anything unless I ‘helped’ her, which for her meant doing it for her. I told her I’d only help her once she put in some effort herself and explained to me how far she’d got and what she was stuck on, at which point she’d start screaming that I was so mean and awful because I wasn’t helping her, and wouldn’t stop (screaming and disturbing the others) unless (a) I did her work for her, which I wouldn’t, or (b) she was removed from my class. She didn’t learn a single thing that year and both she and her parents hated me (her parents also expected me to enable her because, well, guess where she’d learned the helplessness from). It was the worst class I’d ever had, purely because of that one child.

    I was just talking about this to a friend of mine last night. I shared some screenshots from Wicked Whims (a smexy mod for those who don't know) and the difference between the mod and the vanilla intimacy (not the smex/woohoo) is like night and day. With WW, sims behave like a normal couple, they hug and cuddle, they embrace and get close to each other when they smooch and just genuinely look like they're deeply in love with their significant other.
    With Vanilla, it is the most sexless with little to no chemistry between couples I have ever seen. The animations were awkward and janky, there's a gap between the couple large enough for the holy spirit. Some vanilla animations are nice, but they're just too safe, too waterred down.
    Given how poorly they handled "dating" in TS3, seriously my sim was like getting "matches" with every NPC in town regardless of marital status, love letters and gifts in the mail with no option to turn down the suitor or to tell them to bugger off. I am very concerned that this "my first woohoo" is on the horizon.

My guess is there's some kind of carnival area with a few different stands and stuff all related to romance somehow with a few rabbit holes spread throughout (you go on a ferris wheel and when it reaches the top a prompt asks if you wanna try kissing your significant other) or something like that.

    I bet the new expansion pack will be much like outdoor retreat. The world will be a destination world, so potentially it might be small. I'd say maybe 5-6 lots? I bet they'll be like those flashy motels from the 70's where each room (or building in the sims case) will be decorated heavily in one style. Think like a lovers room, with a heart shaped tub, shag carpet, that sort of vibe. I could also see a 'jungle' themed room/building with a waterfall pool.
