Have you seen the effects of Aspiration Failure?

<< < (4/8) > >>

jrd:
Aspirational failure is fun. I keep most of my Sims in a state of permanent unhappiness because I love seeing them go bonkers.

J. M. Pescado:
It'd be nice if they actually went bonkers meaningfully. As it stands, all they do is see the shrink, and waste my time by not obeying orders, so I don't really see much value in it.

RainbowTigress:
As far as I know, the only ones who can have a fear of the Social Bunny are Popularity Sims.  I'm not sure about Romance.  But for Knowledge Sims and the others, they might complain that their social is bottomed out, but they don't lose aspirational points by fearing the Social Bunny.

I've seen them quite often - yes, my Sims are that miserable....

Their aspiration determines what kind of response you get - e.g. Family Sims get the whole floursack baby thing, Popularity Sims talk to a cup on a stick.. I think?  Romance sims woo some mop thing, knowledge Sims talk to a ball, and the fortunes beg in the street. One of the funniest things I saw in the game was Dina Goth harrassing the school bus driver for money one day.....


Haven't seen the flour sack or the mop, but I have seen the others.  Had a fortune sim with a fear of having something stolen.  Burglar came, got that 4500 simoleon painting that my sim wanted so bad, and even though the police came and caught the burglar, poor guy was standing by the mailbox in his pjs, begging.  Pitiful.  He finally stopped and went inside and kept looking at the wall where the painting was and had the "Miss this object" icon.  So I got him another one and he was happy again.

But it was funny watching him beg in his pjs!

I've seen that stupid Social Bunny more times than I want to.  He just gets in the way.  So if I can't get the sim someone to call, I just have them relax on the bed and daydream.  It helps social.
