Sims 4 Cc Life Tragedies

[Asia Jordan]

ElectronicArts has made a lot of noise about the power of emotion in The Sims 4 . In fact, Senior Producer Lyndsay Pearson said on Twitter in June that there will be "multiple types of emotion deaths" in the game. But while your Sims might die laughing, they won't be able to die of depression, because Maxis wants to keep the game lighthearted and fun.

It's not likely you know anyone who laughed himself to death, or who got so angry about something that his head literally exploded. But you may well know someone who suffers from depression, or worse, who took his or her own life because of it. Depression is real, and it's not funny, and that's why Maxis won't use it as a gameplay mechanic.

"Something that wasn't appropriate for The Sims 4 would be to do death by depression," Associate Producer Graham Nardone told Polygon . "That's not an area that we're interested in taking the game. As much as it's a life simulation, it's a light-hearted, fun take on life. We try to keep that in mind when we're deciding what features go into the game."

That's also why natural disasters like floods and tornadoes aren't part of the action: Because players may well have experienced those horrors in real life and likely have no desire to relive them in a videogame. Nardone said Maxis is "always going to lean on the side of humor," noting that the death of a Sim is followed by the arrival of the Grim Reaper itself, who may well do something goofy before or after collecting the soul of the departed, like watching television or changing a baby's diaper.

Or maybe these are no tragedies at all? It's actually a scumbag simulator. Imagine your sim as an evil genius with unlimited powers and resources. One of the things you can do is send a hitman after someone. You get a whole spectrum of colourful personalities to choose from. If you'd rather cut the middle-man and do the wet work yourself, you'll have a range of options available, including stabbing with a pen, suffocating with a pillow, or frying with a flamethrower. Is that not enough? I know it's never enough. But there's more.

The next item on the agenda is deadly diseases. You can give them to people, take them to the hospital (if you have the Get to Work expansion), cure the disease and give it again. It's not that it doesn't have any consequences. The sick Sims will cry, get depressed, and their lives will soon be over. And if that's not enough for you, I'll tell you a story:

Since I wrote the first version of this article, I was left with a pathological family of two incredibly conflicted sims. Lei, the substantial lady in the hairdo, was constantly taking it out on a big muscle guy. Of course, when she got a chance to use brand-new bullying techniques, she battered him even further. He laid on the lawn bruised and bloodied for a good while before he even moved. And when he finally did, he hired a female hitman who came, watched the TV for a while, and left. And 5,000 Simoleons for the job went down the sewer.

The brave warrior decides to take care of the matter himself, and strangles his roommate with a diaper. The Reaper arrives, the conversation was was so he stayed for dinner, followed by a beating. Our insane killer hero walked out of the house, handed a poisoned apple to a stranger, and then gave a terminal illness to the elderly lady delivering pizza. As she kneeled, crying, the NPCs rushed away. Out of boredom, he called the assassin professor. As the professor was stabbing a random passerby in the neck, our strongman took the elderly lady away and bid his farewell, burning her on the spot with a thrower, laughing maniacally.

By this stage I was a bit sick of his exploits, so I ordered a car accident for him. The car, hitting him with much momentum, launched him high into the air, and he, having landed underneath a bench, dead, in the company of his good pal Grim Reaper, enjoyed a refreshing nap.

Bullying is dumb and a sign of weakness. If you've ever been bullied, it's of course no laughing matter. Upon noticing any form of violence, you should always stand up and help the people in need. Beyond that, this mod can be good fun, even though it's obviously pretty edgy. Remember, asking for help is no shame.

Deadly Toddlers is a mod similar to Life Tragedies, except it focuses on babies. If you've looked at previous mods, you've probably seen that cursing "toddlers" don't cut it anymore. Now, the sim babies are finally getting their five minutes.

Let's begin with the fact that you can give a knife to the baby as early as in the CAS character creator. They love the knives, too. Also, they're not very keen on stabbing, unless you're willing to rehearse the Red Wedding.
