He just wanted a kiss goodnight xD

And we now have confused Brandi who wants to marry Malcolm but get engaged to this townie

She fell in love with him now too hahahaha.

And now he did. I dont know who she should choose honestly

And it took a while bu they finally did it

Now he wants to get engaged to her too help hahaha

While we were busy with Brandi's love life it is time for Dustin to leave for uni!

Last family meal with all of them together

Malcolm is calling her everyday, and talking about jewellery ... suggestive

And he asked her out again - I think Brandi and Malcolm is gonna be it

We said goodbye to Dustin

And sent Brandi on a date

And Malcolm is still cannot decide if he wants Nina or Brandi

That didn't stop them from doing it in the photo booth ofc

Asked back to my place and Malcolm spent the night

While the townie brought her a perfect gift which is so very useful for them since they need the money.

I guess we're gonna decide who she will get with on Malcolm's round. I might make this guy playable too, we'll see.

How Do You Play?

1:36 beta pleasantview layout

[misslucysims]

💀

As a Sims 2 player one of the most eerie things about playing the original game isn't necessarily the creepy/more liminal aesthetic or the repetitively endless gameplay, but the fact that almost all the pre-made Sims from the original game are inexorably doomed by the narrative.

There's something odd about Pleasantview specifically, where the majority of the returning Sim families live (save for Tara Kat, who seems... relatively fine). Like, the concept of the game is that twenty-five years have passed, and all of the returning characters are pre-baked into character arcs that communicate an unavoidable truth: You, the player, failed.

Bella Goth will disappear. Her brother (though in the original Sims we aren't aware that Michael Bachelor is her brother) will die, possibly murdered. Mortimer will be lost and alone. Cassandra will be stuck in an unloving engagement. The Newbie's daughter will be impoverished, a single mother whose husband died young, with two boys and another on the way. Daniel Pleasant will grow up to be a cheater. Jennifer Pleasant will never be an athlete like she wanted (her brother will). And though poor Johnny Burb never mentions Tucker anymore, you know that old dog died years ago. The Roomies, the Mashugas, the Hicks, the Charmings - all leave town... or worse, die out.

I think about Jeff Pleasant's bio in the first game: "Jeff and his family are new to the neighborhood. Can you help Jeff provide for his family and fulfill his lifelong goal of being the first man to walk on Mars?" And how it contrasts to Daniel's in the second: "Since his father Jeff died without achieving his dream of going to Mars, Daniel has felt an overwhelming guilt."

And sure, you can save the families of Pleasantview. You can choose for Mary-Sue to not go to work that day, or maybe Daniel never pursues Kaylynn Langerak again. You can give Cassandra a happy marriage, tame Don Lothario's womanizer ways. You can financially save Brandi Broke. You can get John Burb another dog. You can get Jennifer the career she always wanted. You can defy the scripted in-game prompts and say "No. I don't want to play like this." You can break the cycle, every time you play.

And yet, at the end of the day, no matter what you do... uninstalling the game and reinstalling it, maybe just deleting that Neighborhood folder, they are reset back to exactly where they were again. They're doomed to repeat it forever.

The game makes it clear that there are some things you aren't meant to change. A genie lamp or a Resurrect-O-Nomitron can bring back sims like Michael Bachelor, but you will pay for it in your neighborhood deteriorating to corruption. And no matter what you do, no force in the universe can bring Bella Goth back. The one in Strangetown isn't even really her, after all. And maybe she isn't. They say they deleted her in development, replaced her with a clone. Maybe that's what Bella Goth in Strangetown is. A clone. Maybe we were wrong, after all. Maybe she was never abducted by aliens. Maybe Don Lothario killed her. Maybe Dina Caliente killed her. Maybe Mortimer did. But you can't bring her back, no matter what you do. Recreate the original Bella, pixel by pixel, extract her data, make your zombie Bella. Build your own monster. Create a sim. But she will never recognize her family. Never see them as her own.

And she was never meant to.

I spent way too long deciding how to edit this basic picture

So obviously I have to post it here, otherwise it's not worth it.

Anyway, I've never actually explored the whole Kaylynn/Don thing, mostly because I tend to play wants based gameplay and he never specifically wanted it nor did ACR have them hookup. But I've been playing @veronavillequiltingbee's Alt PV and trying to do different things, so here we are!

[nursesimblr]

Dina Caliente always liked the good things in life, and from an early age, she learned to appreciate those who could provide her with it. Maybe it was the worrying financial situation of her parents while the young woman was growing up, maybe it was the friends with high purchasing power in the schools she attended, maybe it was the dream of one day not having to rationalize things to buy the minimum, maybe it was everything together, but at the age of 20, the young Dina Caliente married Michael Bachelor, a tourist gentleman who started to visit the small village of Dina with some frequency. The difference of just over 50 years of age between the couple did not discourage the young blonde from putting the ring on her finger and moving with her new husband to Pleasantview. In the new town, Dina and Michael Bechelor lived five years in a small house in the south, when Michael died due to age complications. Widowed, and adopting back her family name, Dina Caliente invites her twin sister to move into her home in Plesantview and surrenders to the charms of the biggest bachelor in town: Don Lothario. Nina Caliente has never really cared about the finer things in life as she has always been too busy managing all of her relationships. It was no use having a heart that big if she couldn't share it with more than one romantic interest. It turns out that not everyone shares the redhead's lifestyle, and keeping their relationships a secret between them was never the best of ideas. Her life was extremely chaotic in her old town when the young woman was exposed by her boyfriends and her younger twin sister's invitation came at exactly the right time. But Nina certainly hasn't learned her lesson, as she keeps her relationship with Don Lothario a secret from her sister. Will Dina be able to find a love where the interest is not just fiscal? How long until Dina and Nina's relationship is on the rocks thanks to Don Lothario?

Fun CC Shopping. Mostly Clothing Today.

OK so Now that I have all the awesome hairs, rooted through them, kept what I liked, I moved on to clothing and DAYUM! There are some awesome pieces out there. I will be spending most of my days getting things looked at, tested and organized. I have somewhat of a system in my folders...It's an organized chaos but it works. I think am going to pace myself with clothing. Take my time and look at it little by little. I want to set my Sims up to buy CC. When I add Blue Water village, I want to use @plumbtales properties. I am not sure if I will play the sims there. I will age them up and stuff, but I think their main roles will be to man the shops there, we'll see how it goes because if I know myself, I will plan to do something and then a better idea comes along HAHA. Since I did all the properties in Pleasantview, I think I will hit up downtown next. I am not sure if I will do anymore Belladonna Cove properties because I really like what Plumbtales did and if I play that town, it will be a combo of both our creations. I will also still be working on Elsewhere too because I want to play my created sims too. I can add them to Pleasantview but I feel like that neighborhood belongs to the premades. I will work on my Pleasantview Let's play starting on Friday after work. I will be playing the Dreamers next of course. We have to find out how they are doing after their wedding. After the Dreamers we will visit the Plesantview Nursing Home where the Oldies, The Goodies, and Bella Bachelor live. In my Pleasantview, Bella was returned by the Aliens, she came back intact except for her memory. She never remembered getting married, having the kids or anything like that. Mortimer and Bella divorced because they just could not make it work so now, she lives on her own in the retirement home. I can't wait to see how her story unfolds. She's an elder just like Mortimer now so I hope the days she has left are awesome for her. Anyway, it's pretty late, and I have work in the morning...eww LOL. Have a good night :)

About a week ago I made these cute little trailer homes for Plesantview. My plan was to make them look a little run down...but once I saw that wallpaper I couldn't bring myself to do that lol.

But I do love how they turned out so thought I would share them! Hope you enjoy it! See you soon!

[plumbobbunni]

I couldn’t get into rotational play with Plesantview for some reason so I decided to do a rotational play with Desiderata Valley.

Some random screenshots. First of John Mole with his daughter Ada that he had with Sharon Bell. Then Natasha Una marrying Cyd Roseland, who I think is a townie. I had to give Natasha a second aspiration of family because I got annoyed with the grilled cheese one.

About the data remaining from lots in The Sims 2 that are not present in the released version of the game - Потерянные участки в игре

A great article that collects and structures information about the lots that were not included in the released version of the game but were planned by the developers to be added. The article presents what was found in the game files. The official Russian version of the game is captured in the game screenshots. The article itself is also in Russian.
