I was almost convinced you were going to lose Tasha as well! So glad everything went reasonably okay for the kids. Looking forward to seeing Theo in charge!

I don't think Cricket ever lost the weight either. She just kept getting bigger and bigger. Too much reality there :lol:

I am really liking it. Definitely a change in game play and approach. But it is fun and challenging.

I agree with you. I'm looking forward to seeing how far they will take it with expansions, and so forth.

Oh wow, seems like legacy is life is harder in TS4 than its predecessors!
Spoiler:
Both founders dying accidentally? OUCH. Random townies doing press-ups is random. Does the game time pass faster or are you playing on a short span? These sims seem to age super-fast - although the lack of toddler stage might account for some of that. It's still weird seeing babies age right up to kids.

I play fast, though as far as I can tell the age spans are infants 3 days, children 14 days, teens 14 days. Theo still has 17 days in adult before elder and Rosanna was pregnant 5 times as a young adult, so 15 days of pregnancy plus a day between each, so it looks like both adults stages are 21 days.

Awesome, thanks for the link. I will update my game play accordingly, well except for the simselves portion, as I am going to continue bringing in Boolprop sims for the spouses.

I edited the first post with the rules as I am playing, where they differ or involve an allowed choice.

She was struggling by the end. She would walk over the whatever infant, and shoosh them and then walk off. I finally just started keeping her in bed when she wasn't attending to other needs or working. And Theo really bulked up, he maxed the body something or another as part of his aspiration. I am really hoping Seera has the red hair, although it would be nice to throw back to Cricket's green. I will know shortly as it is her birthday.

Spoiler:
Yes, there is no way the children will complete their childhood aspiration. And I am not sure Theo and Rosanna will, although they have a chance if they don't die in a freak accident around the house. I will be glad when the older kids start moving out. And this is way I generally go with the youngest eligible - so I can clear the house before they become young adults.

I am really impressed at hos buff they get. Theo is built like my nephew - wide on top and narrow through the waist. I had not looked that close until reading the comments on how he had gotten bigger.
I go back to work on Monday, so I only have three more days for major progress. And at some point i have to start working on school again. :shhh: At the minimum, I am hoping to get generation 4 in the house, or at least on the way by the end of the weekend. I doubt I will be able to get generation 5 before Sunday, but I am going to try.

Thanks for reading and commenting. This has been a blast so far. And such a different game play.

WOW! Soo much progress in such a short amount of time! I'm excited to see what they do in the future!
Spoiler:
Can I just say, Theo! I didn't realize how buff sims could get. Seeing a before and after definitely showcases that well.
It's weird seeing teen sims the same size as their parents...it makes them seem older. XD
