shanice thing is boring find another sim to play
How to make the sims4 more enjoyable.
Step 1- uninstall
Step 2- delete any associated files
Step 3- take a nap and enjoy ❤
My opinion, it's a fun game but the loading screen takes forever and I can't really get anything done with the personal needs I gave up on Console. I want to play it on PC but I don't know how they use the keyboard controls!
Your laugh makes me so happy 😁
The reason I am playing the game less isnnot cos its boring. But because its stupidly bugged, annoying and immersion breaking.
I like the acting and police career.
I thought until recently that most people had one save file and did the rotational game play… Apparently not. I have a legacy challenge for two Sims families in my save file and it's so long, the family tree is broken for both families 🤣 I'm sometimes bored, but when that happens, I won't play for a few days, and then I'm excited to get back into the game. I only have a few packs/worlds too. I am hesitant to get all the stuff because it's so buggy.
Ppl sleep on the calendar. Delete all the premade holidays and make all new ones. Fill your calendar with stuff for your sims to do. Pumpkin patch day for fall, picnic day for spring etc… it also gets you off your home lot. And if you use mods there’s custom traditions out there!
Waaaait, I didn't know you were a KH fan, too!!! When Missing Link comes out, do you wanna do a Let's Play? Omg maybe the Satchon Community can initiate playing together??
Satch, Cats and Dogs HAS a career, the vet career. Plus there are collectibles your pets can get for you like the feathers. And you can train your dog as well. I'd love it if there was more gameplay, more pets, etc. but i also dont get all the hate that the pack gets xD For a Sims 4 pack that is 7 years old, i think its pretty decent.
I really appreciate vids like this that gives tips on how to enjoy the sims 4, I have mods and all packs but I get bored so easily, thank you Satch ^^
(Also thank you for calling me out multiple times, very cool)
One mod I recommend for builders is the TOOL mod and Better Build Buy by Twisted Mexi. Don't worry I know that they can be intimidating, but there are tutorials on it on YouTube. Plus, I only use the elevate or scale options.
"rotational gameplay" and playing the same save…. you mean, play the game lmao whos dumb ass out there remaking the same boring sim and the same new boring world over and over? at that point just go find something betetr to do with your time the sims4 fresh starting def ain't it
Wait! WE create the same Sim over and over? Hmmm… "Shanice, Shanice are you there?" Ha, ha! Just teasing you, Satch. You actually have some really good ideas!
I hate building so when I work on my savefile I'm just browsing the gallery, yt or google in search of the perfect lots… for hours. Just cus I can't he arsed with building exteriors, I hate it so much lmfao
I know what you mean when you say same face sim. What I like to do is have them be a Purveyor of Potions or Freelance Botanist and then have their aspiration be close to what their career is. That way it is so much simpler to get rewards points.
I dont follow many games comunities, but I think the sims is the only game people say "how to not become bored playing the game". LOL
I think is wild people have to come up with ideas to not get bored. Play a game should just be effortless fun… But I get it, I have nostagia about playing the sims when I was a kid.
I have really enjoyed your save files! I recently completed Newcrest and I am on to Oasis Springs now. I am sure Willow Creek is quite an undertaking, but I hope you do that world as well! The best part of Sims 4 for me is building/designing. Of course it is more fun with mods and custom content!
On the point of not getting a virus, there IS actually a malware going around on the MTS (modthesims) site right now. Not trying to scare anyone off mods, just want people to be aware that this is going on rn and to not download mods from there atm!
Scarlet's modtracker website doesn't link to any mods from there right now as a precaution, and a veteran modder (I think it's twisted mexi) has made a mod that will track for any malware your game.
You should be fine as long as you don't download anything from modthesims. It's regardless good practice to back up your saves, more so because EA patches have a habit of corrupting them lmfao.
Edited for clearer language.
i'd love to have a new sims game without doing mental gymnastics to enjoy it
One thing you didn’t mention that I do is I create a mild story for a new family or sim in my head, and once I have them moved into their first home, I use skill cheats and career cheats to align with my story. I find it’s really boring to have to grind my sims’ skills or careers from scratch every playthrough, so I like to give them a little boost at the beginning so it doesn’t feel the same way to me every time. It also doesn’t make any sense to have a young adult or older to start out with literally zero skills. I’m basically just doing the story feature from CAS manually, lmao, but it’s a great way to have a good storyline for your sims and also not feel daunted by having to start everything from zero.
I will enjoy the game again when they fix the bugs that destroyed my game and made it unplayable so there's that🥲
