It just comes automatic ↶*ೃ✧˚. 🐇

Before I start a little disclaimer: I don't put too much energy into this. I'll explore as I go along however long that may be. Don't take anything I write too seriously. This is all just meant for fun.

Now that we have that out of the way here's our Sim who'll explore Isla Paradiso for us:

Say hello to Silvie Rogue. She's pretty much a preset face but idc she's cute. Traits: absent-minded, loves outdoors, sailor, clumsy, family-oriented Lifetime wish: Great Explorer

many ramblings + a few more pics form my first evening playing under the cut

i'll probably always prefer the cartoon-y look from ts2 & ts4 but i don't hate ts3's style anymore xD

the very prominent eye shine creeps me out though

i did manage to find some default replacements i actually like!

there's a weird thing in CAS going on with the camera but that's probably on me? or due to the fact that i'm playing in borderless window mode on a 34" monitor

you can't create mermaids from CAS?? that's disappointing

i miss the option to have more than one outfit per category (later i realised that this is possible but only through a dresser? ugh)

after only checking CAS for young adult females lemme tell ya: ts3 doesn't has such an obsession with them as ts4 lol

Isla Paradiso is huge there are so many lots my starter sim could choose from and it's just beautiful

there are two cemeteries. two! it was a kinda happy-sad thing realising that cemeteries used to be a thing with the sims. per default not because of a mod.

already found the option to disable all the store advertising, hooray! i will never get over this whole store thing

her work hours are 8am - 2pm. she's gonna have a job and be able to do other things easily! it feels like ts4 work hours are generally pretty long and i find it hard to get them out and do stuff

there are different ringtones for the phone omg! it's like five or six and it's making me genuinely a little bit excited lol especially that we can set it to sound like a home phone in ts2 *nostalgia intensifies*

the little sound it makes whenever a pie menu opens ;_; <3 i've missed this!!

can't use SRWE because of the way the ui reacts to it (not at all thus making it look very weird) sad

hitting fast speed 2 actually feels so much faster!! getting a bit too excited over this but it is one of the biggest smallest things that bug me about ts4. speed 2 doesn't feel that different and don't get me started on speed 3. but this…!! it's a whole new world

the bed is messy! i repeat: the bed is messy!!

my sim made waffles three times and burnt every one of them

her TV broke and she was so upset about it lmao

despite having the sailor trait Silvie is not immune to getting seasick. can you imagine the same thing in ts4? me neither

it's only Thursday and so far everything that could be dirty or broke was dirty and/or broke, some things even multiple times. i love it.

I SEE SHARKS!!

while repairing the TV she got electrocuted and didn't loose the spiky hair just by going into the ocean hehehe

there are wishes and they matter!! *happy cry*

still think only being able to lock four is not enough but eh. it's better than three meaningless whims. and i like having so much more control than in ts2 with the random rolls after completing one

still miss fears though

stuff in the reward store is expensive and it takes time to get enough points. it actually feels like i have to work for it and it's great

the actual ts3 camera feels a lot different from the ts4 version of it and i don't like it

tab mode is absolut torture WHAT IS THIS?!

so far the game crashed once and another time it didn't close properly and I had to force a restart

the ui isn't all over the place like in ts4 and i find it much less stressing + overwhelming

we only have one shortcut key for inventory?? how did we ever live like this?!! such peasantry
