Off the Grid Bubs: Ep. 3 - The Children's Home

By
Hello Simmers and watchers of Sims Stories, episode 3 of Off the Grid Bubs is now live.

Mental Health

Episode three of Off the Grid Bubs deals with mental health, specifically teens struggling with an anxiety disorder(s). As the Sims is a game, it will be dealt with in that environment and in a light-hearted way as these episodes are family oriented. Today's episode touches on Stub living with his elder brother Emu, who has a mental illness, but also on Stub's traumatic childhood and PTSI.

Sometimes people look at the surface of behavior then label and box people in. But Stub will show you in this episode that everyone has layers. So as humans, we should always give people the benefit of the doubt or at the very least understand the root cause of behavior and show them compassion.

Video Description

Stub Bub meets James Grey and initially isn't interested in becoming friends, but when Stub discovers that James is a collector and has a Collector's club that travels across Sim Nation to search for treasure, Stub joins the club and travels with them to Sulani to beach comb for treasure. After a day of beach combing Stub recalls his first visit to Sulani and the haunting memories of why Emu and Stub fled to Sulani. Stub recalls his time at the Children's Home, a period of his life he'd like to forget.

Come immerse yourself in Emu and Stub's escapades:

Show Us Your Builds - Willow Creek

 World Map While playing the Sims 4, undoubtedly the world map has changed from the first time you played. That is true for me in many of my builds. I am a hybrid player. I love to build in the game, but I also enjoy playing. So my builds are typically for sims to live in or enjoy as a community lot. #SimTested Updated Willow Creek The map above is Willow Creek in my latest save BlueBoi Family.  I created the BlueBoi Family to play test my builds in my build world save. I just started a series of building homes from this Home Builder book I purchased over a decade ago. When I play tested the residential lots I built, I fell in love with the family and decided to play them. I saved the family to the gallery and then opened my Base Game save file which has my customized lots, families and clubs in it and plopped them into it, and then resaved it as a new save. This will be my new generations save.  Generations My first generations save, the Landgraabs, was lost June 2019 when a bumbleh

New Life Simulation Games on the Horizon and I'm Here for It

I am pretty stoked about the life simulation genre. It is a game genre I enjoy playing but it has been dominated by one developer, EA, for a long time. It seriously lacks diversity and is heavily skewed toward the queer community. Lastly, the Sims 4 is riddled with bugs and the developers ignore them and just churn out more packs because people are willing to pay more money hoping the game will be fixed and work as they envision. It won't, but they continue to live in their delusion. Wanting to get away from the toxicity of the Sims community and play a life sim game that actually works I was very excited when Life by You was announced earlier this year.  However, following the development of the game over the last few months and the promises by Rod Humble, I don't know if Paradox has given the game developer, General Manager Rod Humble , an ex Sims EVP and ex CEO of Second Life , the budget to hire people to really build a high-end life sim game. Life by You (LbY) is b

Sims 4 Infants - Good Idea, Horrible Implementation

The addition of infants in the Sims 4 is a great idea. You can tell tons of planning went into the infants mannerisms, interactions, and level of awareness. Unfortunately, just like the recent implementations of packs in the past three years, the addition of infants in the base game is riddled with bugs. The most annoying is that when you go to manage world and return the game places the infant out in the world far away from the home. Every SINGLE time. And secondly, if you leave the infant on the home lot with another parent the infants needs aren't met. So, clearly two very basic things the Sims team did not ensure was done wasn't. They did not include staging for the infant, so the infant loops the world when you are not actively controlling her/him. And when you leave the infant home the sims team did not ensure the infant's needs were met. I would give the sims team grace if this was the first time they implemented a little life state, but they did the SAME EXACT thi
