Taking Hints from TS2!!
I saw this video that was posted a few days ago, talking about some of the details from the Sims 2 that Sims 3 & 4 didn’t have. Someone in the comments made a great point about EA, how they’ll focus on huge details that don’t matter (like the Murphy bed animation in 4) rather than the little details that make a huge difference.
Some of the details in S2 would work amazingly for Paralives, here are just some that make things interesting if you don’t have time to watch the vid:
• Hair Physics! Alpha hair that actually moves around when Sims do!
• People can ENTER & EXIT a vehicle normally, not magically appearing inside (S3) or teleporting away. (S4) You could also buy and build your own vehicle!• If something like a toy or small object is in the way, people will WALK OVER it instead of complaining and being trapped!
• People who are running will actually RUN up or down the stairs!
• A memory system that affects your sims personality and likes/dislikes.• People with relationships will cuddle while sleeping and will hold each other for a moment when energy is full until they get out of bed.
• Kids will run and hug their parents when coming home from work.
• If your sim witnesses his parents arguing, he’ll run out of the room in tears.• A parent cheating on their spouse will affect the child’s relationship with that parent.
• If your teen has a bad relationship with you, they can run away! Calling the police can get them back sooner.• Babies can be changed at a table or bathed in the sink!
• People can go grocery shopping, and put food away in the fridge.
• An enemy will come by in the middle of the night and steal your newspaper/knock over your trash (or leave a flaming pile of poo on your porch!)These are just some of the little details that I think would make Paralives the ultimate simulator of all time!
