I saw @lyrea’s questions and I’m just sitting here killing time, so….
What’s your favorite sims death? Good ole Fire, cuz it’s a classic, and it’s always hysterical watching the way sims freak out.
Big props to LGR for the Katy Perry House of Pain, lol! XD
Alpha CC or Maxis Match? Whatever looks nice. I’ve seen the good the bad and the ugly on both sides, EA and 3rd party alike.
Do you cheat when your sims gain weight? YES, it’s so annoying. That Stuffed moodlet really gets on my g-d nerves.
Do you use Moveobjects On? MOO!!!! ❤
Favorite mod? NRAAS’ mods (MC and DE and Hybrid and–!), and a ton of essential mods from MTS and Naughty Sims Asylum
First expansion/game/stuff pack you got? TS1: Makin Magic, TS2: Nightlife & Apartment Life, TS3: Ambitions. The only Stuff Packs I’ve ever wasted money on are TS3′s Fast Lane and Movie Stuff Pack, both times cuz I wanted the new vehicles – the motorcycles, specifically. (EA gave away Town Life for free.)
Do you pronounce “live mode” like aLIVE or LIVing? aLIVE
Who’s your favorite sim that you’ve made? Sakura, my avatar sim.
Have you made a simself? Yes, the day I got TS3 I sat down with my whole family and we all made each other; it was a blast.
What sim traits do you give yourself? Artistic, Bookworm, Childish, Computer Whiz, Loner
Which is your favorite EA hair color? Black, White, or Pink
Favorite EA hair? I actually hate most EA hair, tbh. It’s always the same boring styles or cuts, with little variation, even less creativity in the men’s department, and the EPs/SPs have practically zero decent representation for ethnic hair. IMO a lot of EA’s best CAS CC came from the Store, especially the cultural sets like India and Africa.
and fun fanciful themes like Midnight Hollow.
For the ladies I really like these X X. (We need way more braids & dreads, EA.)
For men I like these X X. (Most of EA’s male hair is horrendous by default.)
Favorite life stage? Young Adult, of course. (I’ll always be bitter about kids and elders having such limited interactions.)
Are you a builder or are you in it for the gameplay? I’m a Builder. I love making lots! (Just visit my TSR or Exchange pages and it’s just…yeah. :P) Nothing is more fun to me than creating the space; taking something that’s in my head – or even better: from my favorite shows/games.etc – and reproducing it in The Sims. I always wanted to be an interior decorator, and my friends knew this and introduced me to The Sims 1 when it came out. I’ve been hooked ever since – curse them.
Are you a CC creator? Yes, unfortunately. I only got into converting when I got desperate for particularly niche content (fanciful/cultural/period CC) that just wasn’t. being. made. I was sick of waiting, and sick of all the contemporary stuff. I don’t remember how I got into first learning though. It was a lot of trial and error, and my very first conversions were total garbage (some of them are still up at TSR if y’all want to point and laugh). But I just kept practicing. I’m still practicing. I wish more people would get into making TS3 CC though.
Do you have any simblr friends/a sim squad? I’m open to talking with anybody. I love chatting with simmers and leaving/getting comments and messages. I get particularly excited when I find simmers who share similar interests & fandoms we can gab away over. I’m a total fangirl.
What’s your favorite game? (1, 2, 3, or 4) The Sims 3, full stop. ❤ I miss TS1 and TS2 sometimes, but then I think about CASt and Open Worlds and I get over it. XD TS2 had all the best CC & mods though (I’m still jelly). I haven’t played TS4, and as things stand I don’t think I ever will. Not one of TS4′s EPs thus far have interested me.
Do you have any sims merch? Other than the games themselves, nope. They cost enough; I’m not tryna give EA any more of my effing money if I can help it.
Do you have a YouTube for sims? Ew, no. Starting a Simblr was pushing the social media limit for me. Anything else would be too much of a hassle.
How has your “sim style” changed throughout your years of playing? My lots are more cluttered (I’m a CC addict, DON’T JUDGE ME!). With screenshots I learned more about the in-game camera (my fave mods for camera angles/zooming/fade), and EA’s invisible lights in BuyDebug. I was introduced to Topaz, which I’m still struggling with. My sims still look like pudding though.
Who’s your favorite CC creator? I have favorite sites and sets, but thinking of just one creator is impossible.
How long have you had a simblr? Since 2013
How do you edit your pictures? In Photoshop I almost always adjust the brightness & contrast by 10 – 30, depending on how crap my in-game lighting was. Then I use the default settings for Topaz (Clean & Sharpen), since I have no idea what I’m doing.
What expansion/game/stuff pack do you want next? I hope TS4 makes a fanciful EP. Preferably something with magic, medieval, or steampunk gameplay, in a brand new world we’ve never had before. Or Japan, I’m always cool with Asian content. 😉
What expansion/game/stuff pack is your favorite so far? TS1: Makin Magic, TS2: Nightlife, TS3: Supernatural.
As usual I tag whoever!
