sims 4 latest update

Happy August Simmers!



We hope you’re having a nice summer (or winter, depending on your hemisphere…)

Have you had a chance to go on vacation recently? If so, did you take lots of fabulous photos? If not, have you taken some fun selfies with your friends? At the very least I’m sure you’ve photographed your dinner…

Well, your Sims have been busy taking photos (or they will, once you tell them to), and now there are new ways to display photographs in The Sims 4.

It’s easier than ever to create new looks for ordinary walls: place a photo on the wall from your Sim’s inventory, then click on it - you’ll find a new “Change Orientation” option that lets you quickly and easily rotate between landscape and portrait.

Fill your Sim’s surfaces with pictures of family and friends (and anything else you can imagine) by grabbing a photo placed on the wall and dragging it on to a table or a shelf - it will magically turn into a standing photo with a frame.

Personally, I plan to build a tiny home and decorate it with nothing but artistic photographs of grilled cheese sandwiches.



Have fun!

What's the A-Z challenge

It's basically a legacy challenge where you start with a sim with their first name starting with A, and their child will have a first name that starts with B, and so on and so on until you reach a heir whose name starts with Z. There's like different rules you can play by to make your challenge easier/harder and you can usually find them online on sims forums/reddit! It's pretty fun, but I'm using cheats so it's not too difficult haha.

It is! I'm on U going on V right now and I can't believe I'm almost done. I think I'll just continue and restart with A again haha. But yeah you should give it a try! I feel like Sims is just that much more fun if you're playing some kind of challenge.

To be fair, they've only just released an expansion pack. A game pack is a good move for now, and I bet there'll be one or two stuff packs next. Then we might get university? I mean it would have been nice to get it for September but we can't win every battle...

 

[Nimz]

The new game pack looks cool for those who want magic stuff. Not my thing but I'm looking forward to seeing the content on it in reviews.

 

[Yuki]

Magic isnt my stuff
i want university

 

[Vampire]

So new Game Pack coming

Realm of Magic

i wouldn't say magic is my favorite aspect of previous sims games although i do love having vampire sims lmao but i could see this being a lot of fun! hopefully better than how magic worked in the sims 3 anyway. just look at that world too. i bet there's some great build mode items.

 

[ARandomFan]

I’m hyped for magic~
I suppose I’ll just create LurkerCrawl I guess
Also cause I need to spend more money on sims. Clearly.

Coming September 10 for PC/Mac and October 15 for Console!​

KEY FEATURES

DISCOVER THE NEIGHBORHOOD
An unreal world awaits your Sim, and when you stumble upon the secret portal, there are mystical discoveries at every turn. Interact with familiars, cast spells on Sims around you, and concoct potions for friends and enemies.


LEARN THE CRAFT
Study up on classic teachings, get sorcerous experts to train your Sim, and become a Spellcaster by completing a quest. Collect and cast spells to make Sims fight, conjure food, or even turn others into objects. Create drinkable potions to make Sims fall in love, remove unwanted curses, or live forever!


GET REAL FAMILIAR
An ethereal familiar – or protector -- will help your Sim become the Spellcaster they were destined to be. Summon a dragon, fairy, or the familiar that best suits your Sim’s personality as a personal guard and give it a creative name.


DRESS FOR SUPERNATURAL SUCCESS
Get in the spirit of sorcery with outfits that suit your Sim. Over-the-top attire is cauldron-ready, while a subdued ensemble is perfect for casting new spells. Collect wands and brooms to finish the look, then decorate rooms with enchanting objects.

World and neighborhoods

The pack includes a new world named Glimmerbrook, a residential mountainous alpine world. It also features a portal into a separate floating fantasy-like neighborhood, The Magic Realm, where magic NPCs live.

Spellcasters

A new life state - spellcasters, are introduced. They are largely similar to witches from previous games, in that they can learn magic spells and brew potions. Similar to vampires in The Sims 4, spellcasters have a variety of skills and abilities they can unlock as they progress through a rank system. They are also the first occult in The Sims 4 to not have a secondary form.

Familiars

Spellcasters can bind themselves an unlimited number of familiars, such as dragons, phoenixes or with Cats & Dogs, dogs and cats. However only one familar can be summoned at a time.
