7.6 - Lapse in Judgement

Image
It's been a long time since I've loaded The Sims 4 (nearly six months!!) and I come back to find this idiot floating around trying to freeze to death. Kiyoshi: 'You forgot about us.' I needed a break, dude. This game can get frightfully dull and everyone knows Legacies are a slog! Kiyoshi: 'Harsh.' Just get inside and get warmed up. This lovely blonde lady is Devin Matteson. Kaito met her in the University neighborhood during his mad dash for a spouse. I've already given her a makeover. Legacy loves are so  romantic... It looks like he's trying to explain to Nanami why Devin looks like a burglar. (spoiler: she's evil !) Kiyoshi still needs wildlife attacks, so I ship the family off to the mountains for some vacation time. Unfortunately, it is decidedly animal-free. I've had ZERO LUCK with 'wildlife attacks.' It's dumb. Nanami and Yosuke got some family bonding by building a Snow Pal. This guy has clearly lost his damn mind!!  No. No. ...

7.5 - Free-Range Parenting

Yosuke, my dude... why are you hanging out in a sauna with teenage girls? Yosuke: 'Because I'm a teenage boy, obviously.' ...you're missing the point here on purpose. Where are your parents?! I don't like what's happening here. Yosuke: 'Prude!' Delinquent! Asherah is clearly too busy being a giant child to bother checking in on her children... Asherah: 'What are you talking about? Nanami is right here.' Yosuke! He's downstairs, in the sauna, with a bunch of girls. Asherah: 'It's fiiine. We're not those  type of parents.' You're so lucky I don't have the mods required to make you regret that sort of thinking. Yosuke gets help from his little brother, Kaito, because he's too busy carousing with girls to keep his grades up. Yosuke: 'That's not true.' Kaito: 'He's just not very smart.' Yosuke: 'Hey! Watch it, squirt.' Pretty sure Yosuke is the mean one, not you, Kaito. Between all the tr...

7.4 - Ain't No Mountain High Enough

We're gonna focus on this guy   for a bit. I'm really keen to finish his aspiration and discover more of what the expansion has to offer. Kiyoshi: 'Sweet! Can I, uh... finish this cake first?' Sigh. And maybe get dressed? Since it's clear you and Asherah misused the sauna. Again . It's time to climb! Honestly, figuring out the whole mountain thing was not  intuitive. You have to do it like a party, which is dumb. Also, building rock climbing as a skill sucks . It takes forever on the machine and going on this long, singular trek just to build up skill is lame. Kiyoshi invited his parents, since they're the only other people with experience he knows. The smelly lines are from his mother. Clearly, they didn't get the preparation memo beforehand. Honestly, it wasn't tough at all. Anyone who played World Adventures  in TS3 will find this child's play. The hardest part is simply having the skill. They make it to the top and immediately build snowpals ...
