You know, there is more to the world than just Amurika.
That's all rumors, silly.
Sims is made in the US. They've shown in the past (hello, World Adventures) how very US-centric they are. Therefore, my comment was based on what they'd base it on.
Skadi, start earlier, go faster. Then get waffles.
ShinyBitz:
Yeah, I'm seconding that vampires need a decent method of immorally obtaining blood; maybe their hunger meter should be filled/increased by winning a fight. I'm also going to agree to a "tastes like fridge" moodlet for all fridge-obtained plasma, but that seems too merciful. I'm not in charge for a variety of good reasons, but I'd throw in a statistically significant chance for something really hilarious to happen. As a random stupid suggestion, perhaps a bad batch, one in ten or so, gives you three days to live and can only be cured by drinking the blood of a hunt target (to make that mechanic worthwhile). Something in that vein, maybe less or more brutal depending on the whims of Pescado. Make it a toggle-able option if you want to avoid whining from the weak, but if you do, set it to on by default as a punishment to those who fail to RTFM.

The funny thing is that Pescado has done much worse than that. He as an option in the config file that crashes your game. That is its only pupose. It even tells you that it will crash your game. And yet a few people still asked why their game crashed when they enabled. Good times, good times.
Speaking of making game mechanics worthwhile, you are able to raid the hospital to obtain blood juice boxes. But they go bad in your inventory very quickly AND (due to a bug) once they do so your vampire gets stuck with the "bad food" moodlet until you manually remove it using a cheat. Even though I dislike blood juice boxes from the fridge because they are too easy to obtain, I do like the idea of raiding them from the hospital. But to make it a viable option the blood juice boxes need to stop going bad or at least take no longer to go bad in your inventory.
Claeric:
There also needs to be a benefit to the ones from the hospital. Maybe a separate object with different "stats" altogether. Can't you just go to the fridge, get a juice, cancel the action, and add it to your inventory? It's the same thing. And if you immediately refrigerate the ones from the hospital, you get the same effect as just taking one from the fridge.
Is it supposed to be for emergencies? Are sims ever really that far from home that they wouldn't get home in 24 hours to get a juice from the fridge?

I remember a user here who turned it on (why?!?), then slunk off to another unrelated forum to ask about it because they were too ashamed to ask here.
