I love this! Every word. I can feel it because I experienced something similar with my first real challenge story in the Sims 4. I felt restricted and struggled to accept the limitations of 4 (especially since 3 was my first real introduction to the Sims). It felt like a step backward. I began to appreciate and realize the full potential when autonomy began to create and generate unique and unexpected experiences in game. And that is the moment I fell in love with the game too.

Thank you very much for your comment ❤

It was really solving this task that taught me to love sims4. I was quite negative in the beginning. I missed the community around Sims3 and had a hard time accepting the pre-stage development in Sims4.
When I started on Tusnelda’s story there had been clear improvements. Not least when the toddlers made a life simulation game more realistic.
I also became aware that my fellow players’ eternal grumbling about the game’s faults and shortcomings did not give me any joy. Therefore it became a choice to take advantage of the game’s possibilities and it was the start of a surprisingly joyful and educational journey.
