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...

Hi everyone, I'm on this #FitLife movement and decided to share a new piece of exercise equipment I am using. This Ab Roller is from Asia. What I like about it is that it is lower to the ground like a traditional plank. It has four wheels instead of the one wheel an ab roller typically has, so I don't have to focus on balancing the wheel, I can focus on strengthening my core.  I'm not a fan of traditional crunches. And since the COVID pandemic, I've preferred to exercise at home or outside and spend less time indoors in crowded spaces. So, that leaves me with finding a solution to exercise my abs, lower back and obliques along with doing Pilates. I like variety, it keeps me engaged and enjoying my fitness routines. After all it is a lifestyle! I'll share more about my #FitLife journey on my Tanya Talks blog and channel. But I wanted to share this piece of equipment since I haven't seen any reviews or videos in the U.S. Most of the Ab Rollers I have seen ha...

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...

Hi Everybody. Welcome to a new feature on my blog. I am jumping into tiny house building in the Sims 4.  I'll be using actual architectural plans to create my builds , that you can download from the Sims 4 Gallery, user id troshalom . Tiny Living Pack I just purchased the Tiny Living stuff pack . I initially didn't plan to purchase the pack as I wasn't into the whole "Tiny House" builds thing, although I enjoy watching on television Tiny House builds. But, I wanted some of the items in the pack & decided to purchase it.  The first thing I did was plop down a lot from the pack, it is a Tier 1 Micro Home, which is a max of 32 tiles, and I was mortified.  Why didn't they use a 20x15 lot for the Tiny house? They put a microhouse on a 30x20 lot. It looks ridiculous. I plopped the house down in Newcrest, which is one of my favorite worlds, leveled the terrain and made some adjustments. The next thing I did was build a large tiny house, that is a Tier 3 Sma...

I am really excited about this game. It is open world and fully customizable. With customizable conversations! That will make creating stories for YouTube a blast! Life by You Announcement Event The announcement event just gave us a bit of a taste. Not too long. Right now the humans look rather crude and their movements are stilted, so I am hoping they will get more polish before the game is fully released, but I am gang ho to do some early testing as I am ready for a new life simulation game and am bored with The Sims 4. Right now the look and feel of the game is giving me Sims 3 vibe and that is not a good thing. I really do like the look and feel of the Sims 4 and am expecting a new life simulation game to wow us with the graphics and look really slick and smooth. Not a throwback to graphics from 2009, when it is 2023. So I am hoping that those graphics are just for playtesting, and that the real great looking graphics will be in the pack release.  I just prefer vibrant lush l...

EA has dropped the latest new life stage INFANTS! Included with this drop are enhanced babies now reclassified as newborns and loads of build/buy items to support the new infants.

There is a new expansion pack in town and low and behold it is, you guessed it, Generations . Well the Sims 4 team is calling it Growing Together , and now it makes you question what the heck is the purpose of the Parenthood game pack now that they have finally released generations.  You gotta hand it to EA though. The grift is real. They took the Generations EP in The Sims 3 and split it into six, yes 6, you heard me, six different packs. As they say, don't hate the player hate the game. Parenthood Game Pack   Kids Stuff Pack Toddler Stuff Pack Backyard Stuff Pack Highschool Years Expansion Pack My Wedding Stories Game Pack Growing Together Expansion Pack In the Sims 3 Generations cost $40. But in the Sims 4 it will cost you $150 since an EP cost $40, GP cost $20 and a SP cost $10. That's a whopping $110 more than you would've spent in the sims 3 - don't hate the player, hate the game, because EA has taken grift to a whole 'nother level. But don't take...

Meet the Families There are eight families that have newborns or toddlers. Each of them ready to expand their generations and grow together as a community. The Roommates June Kay and Missy Roomie have purchased their first house in Willow Creek. A small 2 bedroom 1 bath ranch on a 20x15 lot on a canal in the Foundry Cove neighborhood. This working class neighborhood in southern Willow Creek is perfect for young families and young adults just starting their career.  June and Missy grew up in the same neighborhood in the big city. They moved to Willow Creek for Missy's job at the local lounge. Missy felt she could make a bigger mark for herself in a smaller town as a musician, than competing against all of the talent in the big city. And her gamble may pay off; as the ladies threw an epic holiday party that completely woke up sleepy little Willow Creek. But June got more than she bargained when she discovered Father Winter left more than a gift under the tree. Growing Together Foll...

Hey Y'all. In 2019 I started a sims series called Father Winter's Babies. I recorded the first three episodes in October 2019. I planned the series primarily because I was curious what a sim baby with Father Winter would be like. What traits and abilities would they have as they grew up. Honestly, I still don't know the answer to that question since I stopped playing the save after I noticed that the videos I was making weren't getting any views in 2021. And on top of that the Sims forum was really toxic. People were sabotaging my channel by down voting my videos and reporting them. I guess haters are gonna hate. Why I Stopped Recording Since it takes so long to play, record, and edit videos and I wasn't getting a return on the investment of my time, I stopped playing. However, with the  new Infants update and Growing Together expansion pack coming out, I figured it would be great to play this save since it is a pretty vanilla game and will give me a chance to play...
