Sims 2/3/4 Asks

itsoceansecret:

I saw a few people creating more and i’d love to make my own version too!

This is perfect! Another simblr questionnaire! ^0^

1.Who is your favorite simblr? /
31.Favorite CC Creator/s?

/ 17.Sims blogs you recommend?

Myself! 😛 I have a lot of favorite simblrs, and simmers, though. Way too many to list.

So many of my fave TS3 CC creators are gone now, and it really sucks, cuz I’m obsessed with fanciful and cultural CC and it’s really hard to find simmers who cater specifically to the themes I’m most interested in. So it’s difficult for me to just throw one or two or three names out, cuz I have to rely on a lot of different CC creators for a lot of stuff.

2.Favorite piece of cc? Why?

This is hard. There’s so many different styles of gameplay I like, so I tend to swap out CC for each theme – fantasy, scifi, historical, etc etc.  That list would be CRAZY long! Pretty much the only CC that usually stays put, no matter what I’m playing, are the standard skintones and hairs and makeup I prefer. So I guess my “favorite“ CC would be Lemonleaf’s Asian skin (I use Ephemera’s Asian skin, too), an awful lot of (edited) hairs from Newsea, Peggy, Stealthic, Kijiko, and makeup by mostly Pralinesims or Taty86/Niobecremisi.

I try to post all my favorite stuff on my Finds blogs, though.  And my Resources page lists a few essentials.

3.Must have mods?

There is no playing this game without ALL of these mods I have installed:

There are other mods I strictly only ever use/swap out for my fantasy/medieval/scifi gameplay, but these are the ones that I use no matter what. In the folders are all my super super important mods, like everything I have from Nraas, Naughty Sims Asylum, Arsil’s stuff from MTS, Mr Hawk’s mods and recats from the Simalogue, etc. 

4.Best world to play in?

For the past two or so years I’ve been moving a lot of my gameplay to really condensed small DIY ‘hoods using the Bigger Builder’s Island at MTS.

I’ll start out my gameplay in a favorite Store/EP world, but usually they get to be so bloated with annoying effing townies and all these useless rabbitholes and jobs I never use, that I often just need something smaller and more controlled – especially when I’m busy testing CC and I need a world that will load/save quickly, so I can get on with my life.

5.Why did you join simblr? I’ve answered this question so many times.

12.Do you like getting involved? /
6.Do you use other sims platforms? Like twitter/Instagram etc.

/ 18.Do you run other sims related blogs?

Of course! I wouldn’t post a thing online otherwise.

Other than TSR, MTS, and The Simscave? No. I’m registered at a lot of different sims sites/forums (under a lot of different names, lol), but Tumblr is where I pretty much “live.“
Bibbidi bobbidi boo!

7.What do you want to do with your blog in the future? /
37.How did your blog/sims change with time?

Keep posting, keep uploading, keep simming, keep meeting new simmers.

I hope my blog and content has improved with time, that’s for sure. I know I reblog more, cuz I’m always happy to see my stuff in other peoples’ games. And I try to keep non-sims reblogs relegated to my personal blog now, since this is supposed to be just a simblr. Other than that, i think I’m just getting stupider crazier, and rambling more. 😛  

8.Current goals with your blog? /
32.What’s your blog theme? Berry? Realistic? Other? Why?

My main themes are Fantasy! Cultural!/Historical! SciFi! My main goal is always to find more games to convert from. I thought I had a good one recently, but the extraction part is proving to be more trouble than it was worth, and the “help” I got was just…forget it; sorry I asked.

9.A simblr crush? /
34.Does any of your characters have a crush on someone else’s sim? Who?

My gameplay/simsverse doesn’t cross with other peoples’, no.

However, personally my biggest sim-crush for the longest time has been “the Pumpkin King” Jacky Splatter, by @lolabourbonsims He’s hawt.

image

10.Five of your favorite sims of other people’s?

I already mentioned Jack, but my other crushes include Jorn by @thepathofnevermore​, pretty much EVERYONE by @kosmokhaos​ but Osiris especially,
Morgan by @soloriya,

and I think a lot of @naginatah’s and @lefent’s sims are hot, too.

11.What is the community missing?

More Male CC, more TS4 to TS3 conversions, more TS3 creators in general.

13.Have you RP-ed already? Joined any RP community with sims? /
15.Do you collab with people? Are you open to ships?

God no, I’m too lazy to ever commit to anything like that. I rarely ever even collab; I tend to forget or get tired (read: aggravated with my game when it refuses to cooperate) or distracted or just drop projects and entire gameplay – I have the attention span of a newt on crack.

14.How many people do you follow? /
38.Do you follow back?

NO.

I follow a lot of blogs, but like half of them have nothing to do with simming – I take inspiration from all over, and I follow video game blogs, a lot of fandom blogs, art and fashion blogs, and all sorts of funny blogs that make me laugh. Which…makes my Dashboard annoying at times, when I’m scrolling and scrolling and not seeing a single Sims post. 😛

I wish there was a way to better filter what blogs appear on your dash at a time, without Unfollowing them or blocking tags. Like, today I only want my dash to show posts from these blogs (simblrs only), or those blogs (all fandoms blogs), and hide all the other blogs’ posts until I say so, or something.

Mostly when I need to catch up with Sims posts I’ll go directly to peoples’ Archives/Tags, cuz sometimes I can’t be bothered scrolling my disaster of a dash. 

16.Your favorite sim/sims of yours? /
33.List 5 facts about your favorite character?

There’s Sakura, my avatar sim, of course. And there’s Nagron – Nasir and Agron from my Spartacus gameplay.

image

I have all sorts of info on them, and I’ve done 5-Facts stuff for them before. There’s more pending in my Drafts, but that’ll be for later.

19.Which EP/SP packs do you own? Your favorite? / 22.Favorite supernatural in The Sims games? /
26. 1 SP/EP you dislike most and why?

I own all of the EPs, I just don’t have all of them installed. 😛

My favorite EPs are SN, WA, and SSNS in the top 3, because they all feature things I just CAN’T sim without: Witches/magic, Asia, and seasons (winter, specifically). I like all the rest, too, but the only one I HATE is LN – the only things keeping me from uninstalling it are the musical instruments and elevators/high-rises.

I only have like 3 TS3 SPs, and I got TL for free, and FL and MVSP on super-sale, cuz I don’t believe in wasting money on SPs that don’t even add new gameplay, when there’s 3rd party CC out there that’s better, and best of all: FREE.

20.Favorite Sims game? /
40.Best sims game? Why?

Makin’ Magic. Supernatural is close, but nothing beats Magic Town. Moonlight Falls paled in comparison. PALED. But the best game at least for TS3 IMO is SSNS. SSNS was just sooooo detailed, and I can’t help being fascinated every time it snows in my game; it’s beautiful. The only complaint I have is that there are no RL holidays included, which is so effing irritating, and that the aliens have nothing to do with the EP whatsoever, and should have been in an EP that made more sense, like AMB, Pets, or just waiting for ITF.

21.The most annoying bug you ever encountered?

It’s not the bugs that annoy me so much as all the limitations everywhere, especially on what we can/can’t do in Build Mode, can/can’t access in Buy Mode, and the Live Mode interactions that can/can’t be initiated based on crap like age states (especially the kids and elders).

23.Favorite word in simlish?

Sul sul!

24.Do you think there will be a Sims 5 anytime soon? What do you expect from it?

image

Just kidding. 😛 No but seriously, I don’t even know what to expect from TS5. I wouldn’t be surprised if there isn’t one, at least not for a long time, cuz EA really needs to sit down and think before they even get started – if another toddlers/pools/ghosts/CASt/open-world/cars/careers/etc/etc disaster happened again, I really think simmers would start rioting in the streets. 😛

25.How would you describe the community? Or your experience so far?

My experience has been great, otherwise I’d’ve bailed STAT. First thing I did when I made my blog was turn Anons off, cuz I lurked Tumblr for like a year before I joined, and Anon hate & trolling seemed to be the quickest way to just get turned off by the whole online experience.

27.Maxis Match CC?

Depends. If it’s cute it’s cute.

28.Favorite home to play in?

The ones I build, seeing as how I’m a Builder.

29.Favorite pet type in any Sims game?Why?

I don’t have Pets installed, so I’ll just have to say the Baby Dragons from the Store! >:D

image

Tbh I barely ever use the Green or Purple one. The Black one is my frikkin frakkin FAVORITE, and the Red one is dope by default, but I pestered EA for a Blue water/ice dragon for the longest time and they never delivered – frikkin figures. >_>

30.Are you WCIF friendly?

Yes, but I try to give CC Credits in my posts as much as I can, cuz I know some simmers get shy and don’t wanna ask.

35.How do you create your sims? Do you use inspiration? Have face claims? /
39.Have you created sims from other games? Who? Why?

Face claims? XD XD XD XD XD XD XD

I’m very often inspired by things, like other video game or fandom characters I’m trying to recreate. I always start with an EA premade, and the first thing I do is put one of Lemonleaf or Ephemera’s skins on them, cuz EA’s skins are WRETCHED. No matter how many sliders you use, EA’s skins will insta-age your sim by a good 10 years, or at least a good 10 drug binges. From there I just mess around with the sliders until my sims look halfway decent, I suppose.

36.Do you dislike any of your sims? Why?

Not really. I mean, I get bored or distracted a lot, so there’s tons of sims/gameplay I have abandoned, but I don’t dislike my sims. I dislike a lot of the lots and CC I’ve uploaded, though. I hate EA’s premades by and large, however.


As usual – just do this and say I tagged you.
