So anyone else not so happy about the new lifetime aspiration thing in FT?
simofborg:
If all you want is a pretty gravstone do it with insim.
I have always strifen to reach my sims ultimate goals, you know God as I would have him be, but reading posts on this site has opened my mind has to a whole new gameplay, not so much mr nice guy, Whoops! ms nice person.
I ressurected Bella and got her to chuck out Mortimer, she got the house the car and the kids, and he's living on charity, on account of no 20k handouts, realism in future, no more plat sims for me. Thanks for opening my eyes, what a great way to get even.
Oh dear! the lack of wine and goodies for lent must have brought out my mean side, don't think that's what it's supposed to do....

It was too late last night, so I did not play much after the installation, but at least those sims which had already fulfilled their lifetime want keep their perma-plat status. There might be two ways to achieve it now, either by fulfilling the lifetime want or through the hobbies.
I find the whole aspiration benefit system hugely disappointing though. It's my own fault really, because I should have known, but I was so excited about a secondary aspiration. It was what I wanted to have in my game since I read the idea on the official forum a long time ago. I wanted a true mixture, but it looks like the secondary aspiration means nothing. It does not have an influence on the attraction between two sims, and as far as wants are concerned: my sims always got wants which "belonged" to other aspirations, so what's new there? So ultimately it only gives access to some of the benefits, which I find alltogether not that exciting.
Though I expected it to some extent, the first impression with Freetime is that it simply reprocesses a lot of ideas from previous expansions.

You guys are so silly. If you don't like having tons of perma-plat sims in your hood, stop making them achieve it.
I think I only allowed that privilege to 3 sims ever and not all with the same install. heh...my sims are more like real life, I guess. I do like the new lifetime aspiration meter. I don't like that from the time of toddler-hood you get so many rewards. During playtime yesterday, a toddler grew to a young adult and maxed out the lifetime aspiration bonuses which made him pretty boring.

I don't think I have EVER had a perma-plat sim. I never play them long enough. =p

My silly medieval sims keep wanting electronics and stuff that arent even invented. They also have an urge to go to college almost all of them, even if they should KNOW poor sims dont go to college, thats for the rich people. They dont get to have much fun either, only better off families have books - the others must get fun from woohoo, gardening and puddles. Well, cats and dogs are also fun. They do live interesting lives anyway :P (Ah, and they fight a lot..)
