The Creepy Lore Of The Sims 3

There was a time when my vampire Sim almost died from being outside for too long. When the Grim Reaper came to turn her into a ghost, my dogs (that my sims had since they were born) attacked the Grim Reaper, causing him to let my Sim live. I couldn’t believe what I was watching lmao

Ok but I genuinely love that the imaginary friend "grows up" with a sim and if that sim is dedicated enough they can turn the imaginary friend real and marry them. I think that's really cute, because that takes a lot of commitment.

me: i hope this youtuber knows what they're talking about izzy: here is a handwritten cheat code note i made as a child me: excellent, we're in safe hands

When I was a kid, my parents didn't want me to get the nightlife expansion with the sims 2 because they felt the idea of a nightlife was "too mature". So instead, I just asked for the Sims 2 deluxe--which they got me, not knowing nightlife was built into it. So happy goth tween me got her vampires after all.

Agnes Crumplebottom's partially finished nursey gets me in the feels every time

Can't wait for her video on the horrors of Sims 4: an hour and 20 minute epic on microtransactions and stingy expansion packs.

about lolita: you forgot to mention that gusmao's wife has an toaster in her inventory, lolita died from electrocution, gusmao is anti electricity and in his house theres no television and etc. so it leads to think that cornelia killed lolita to be with gusmao

"Impressed by the chocolate fountain" has the same vibe as "an extra hour in the ball pit"

Not to be "that guy", but the whole "owning land in Scotland and be a Lord/Lady" through Established Titles is dodgy. Obviously it goes without saying that you don't own the land, you're effectively sponsoring it (like you don't own the dolphin or donkey you sponsor through charities), and you can't style yourself as a Lord or Lady officially, because you're not one. They don't make that clear. It's kinda like how companies tell you you can "name a star". You can't. You're paying for a piece of paper that tells you you have, but it'll never be officially recognised. Obviously it's up to you how much that bothers you, but that should always be made clear by the company, except it never is. Also, the environment sector in Scotland has been very critical of the work Established Titles is doing (or not doing, rather) with the millions of pounds they keep in an offshore account. It's also a very culturally sensitive issue. The idea of people being able to "own" land that should be public upsets a lot of people, and it can be seen as a form of neo-colonialism. Scottish MPs and environmental experts alike have been critical of the schemes. Lots of people have styled it as a scam, because you don't own anything, you're not suddenly made a Lord, and the company isn't really doing anything with the money they're making. It's like buying an NFT, but somehow worse.

One of the creepiest Sims 3 moments for me was this one glitch that happened as part of story progression. I had a family that had a simbot as a part of it, and as they grew up slowly they all moved out to start their own families. One girl and the simbot remained in the original house, and because of story progression they ended up married. Weird since the robot was kinda like a nanny to her, but whatever. And because they were married, story progression had the have children…. Despite the fact that simbots cannot have a children. I think because it was I myself didn’t make them have children, the game did, that him being infertile was overlooked that result in their children. The kids looked like normal human boys, however whenever they moved they used robot animations. The only problem was, robot animations were made for an adult frame, not a child. So they would stretch (like the stretching toddler glitch) every time they moved and immediately go back to normal when they stopped. Unfortunately I stopped playing that file shortly after so I never found out what happened when they grew up, but the memory of those two kids have been haunting me ever since lmao

The only thing that shocked me in sims 3 was that I was playing a family and suddenly a huge shadow was over my sims house, in the end it was a huge meteor that killed almost my whole family and destroyed my house…I still remember the one sim that stood outside and witnessed this tragedy.

i will never forget when i was playing with my sims 3 family on the Wii and i made my child walk to school instead of taking the bus. As she walked to school, i got a game message that she was kidnapped by some weird scientist?? My child was removed from the family and she never cane back. Safe to say I was devastated 😭

Izzy: trying to take the perfect dramatic shot of the graveyard Random jogger sim with a rainbow umbrella: Haha, ripzo! 😀

I'm not from a country where homosexual relationships were openly talked about during my childhood (or ever talked about at all), but Sims 3 became a discovery for me in this regard when my girl sim showed sympathy for another girl. I was so gentle with these relationships, and saw so many opportunities for them to exist in the world. I will never forget how I thought, looking at two girls kissing: I like it, it's beautiful. And then I created myself :D

The craziest thing that's ever happened to me in the Sims 3 was I got that super rare event where in University if you let the science students dabble around long with the Group Science Experiment Object, they can accidentally cause an orbital strike on your neighborhood. My sim was just peacefully going about her day, ya' know just tryin' to earn her college degree when suddenly I got a popup notification in the upper right "Something is uncharacteristically dimming the sun, what could it be?". Next thing I look at my Sims moodlets and one is marked "orbital strike imminent", I was like OH SHIT! I'd heard about this happening before in Sims 2 but never saw it. Suffice it to say I told my Sim to leave class early and run randomly around the foothills on the edge of town. Figured if I didn't just stay in one spot the likelihood of her getting killed would be less. The asteroid came down, right in the middle of the campus, exploding over the science division. It started a bunch of fires all over randomly, space rocks were strewn all about everywhere as well as several of those really big asteroid pieces you can sometimes find in the world while watching via telescope. Everyone ran out of class and half the townies died instantly of a heart attack while charred. The other half farther away from the epicenter burned to death in like 30 sims minutes lol. Only silver lining at the end of all of it, was that many space rocks were worth alot of simoleons lol.

I feel bad for the girl doll dressed creator. Imagine taking time out of your day to make a custom doll for your sims, feel proud, upload it, and then somehow get the internet to think you're a monster who can haunt a sims game.

The scariest part of sims 3 is when I planted way too many trees on my lot and the leaves started falling. My maid was only racking leaves all day every day and my house was a mess. So I lined the perimeter of my lot with bonehildas and woke them up at the same time. It was amazing to see an army of bonehildas racking my leaves. But then my laptop started slowing down and eventually just shut off. It never turned back on 👻

Olive Specter's Unlucky trait makes her unkillable. If an Unlucky sim passess from anything outside of old age, the grim reaper will bring them back. Maybe that's how she ended up falling for Grim

The creepiest thing that I remember from the game was how zombies would randomly pop up in my sim's yard and would stare at them through the windows if they weren't covered. It use to really freak me out.

Wow. As a Simmer who hasn't ever touched the later games (only having played the Sims 4), I can see what people mean when the game is incredibly lacking... This is just so intricate and has so much personality. The Sims 4 really is a shell of its predecessors.
