Poll: How do you feel about accidental deaths in the Sims 2?
skandelouslala:
I got strangely giddy last night seeing a sim that I can't decide rather I want her to live or die catch herself on fire making crepes suzette (I always have a strange vibe when it might be risky to make, and tend to make my sims make in then for some hopeful fire inducing drama) She was a pile of ashes when I decided to wake her lover up and have him plead if he could make it there in time. Sadly he did. I should have let her remain a pile of ashes on the floor.
The only sure fire way I have found of making "accidental" deaths more common is leaving large amounts of tombstones and angry ghosts on lots. It is almost a promised accidental death per generation.
I also turn off the picture in picture that shows special events. Every once in a while I will stumble across an "accident" that happened to late for me to do anything.
I personally wish the way pleading with the reaper works could be changed. It is too predictable. If someone with a high relationship is doing the pleading it is pretty much guaranteed that pleader will win. I wish it was more random.

I like accidental deaths - the game isn't a challenge any more if everyone's rich, happily married, and with lots of children. It adds a bit of interest to their stories.

Lightning is probably the deadliest due to its instant hunger hit, which can kill.
A hunger hit? My sim got hit by lightning yesterday and came running in the house with her bladder and hygiene all the way down, but I didn't notice she was low on hunger. As she was pregnant at the time, I'da likely noticed a big hunger one. (a littller one I wouldn'ta noticed.)

I've had a wife at 100/100 with her husband plead for him, and fail. I then tried to resurrect him with insim, but it borked, so I had to kill him again.

I thought that the highest chance of winning against the reaper was 90%. Of course, the chance is probably sadorandom, like many other things in the game. ::)
