Can I SAVE The Grunt Family? (Sims 2)

To be honest, I never really saw Buzz Grunt as a horrible dad. Just an overwhelmed one : he just divorced, then his ex (and mom of his kids) dies suddenly and mysteriously. He's now a single parent even more (no one to co parent with him), perhaps still the grief of his divorce and he now has three heartbroken boys. It's easier with Tank as they are so similar and Buck, well, he's still so little, his character is still building up. But Ripp is the one most like his mother, both in appearance and aspiration. In my games, either he has a great relationship with all of his sons or if he isn't that close to Ripp, they are on good terms.

I grew up as an Army Brat so I tended to gravitate towards Military stuff when I was younger. Probably the reason why this was my favorite premade family in Sims 2.

I love Ripp being a player. I’m glad you took a music route with him bc I’ve always liked the idea of him and Johnny in a band

Nervous must be mad at Malcolm for him fighting the vampire during Nervous and Pascal's date lol. He sure made a scene at the restaurant.

Malcolm and Nervous being mad at each other makes so much sense! Malcolm is from one of the shadiest families in the Sims' franchise and Nervous is a very successful lawyer, there's probably a lawsuit that Malcolm doesn't want Nervous to fight! As for the weird vibes of the pool and the weird room... I would say that a lot the neighbourhood was part of some weird Military facility, somehow... the room seems like an interrogation/torture chamber :| Thank you yet again for posted and making my weekend a bit more bearable <3

Marq: why does Ripp want that?? Also Marq: hooks Ripp up with 3 different girls.

Malcolm just getting into fights with everyone in the background is amazing ngl

The Sims Lore has done a great video on this cursed community lot

19:46 it looks like a place where you go to smoke cigarettes when you have a break at work 😂

yessssssssss justice for poor buzz's kids!!!! i always make his kids rebel when i play them :)

While playing TS2 I always considered the possibility of Tank being gay. Then when he goes to the university i think he sees that like a way of personal freedom. He can be who he trully are without worrying about his father.

Malcolm is always out here fighting someone

I am addicted to these videos please I need multiple rounds😂😭

Not Malcom fighting again in the background lol

I always waited the Grunts for too long, my favourite family. And… NO ONE MESSES WITH BUZZ GRUNT!!!

I like Hailey, she was vibing with Ripp 's music

Does Malcom have beef with everyone lol

omg that cry in the beginning was so intense 🥲 Also, Buzz picking up the guitar was pure perfection 😂

Your Grunt house is much more wholesome than what I ended up with hahaha. Ripp's not on good terms with Buzz or Tank but he's very close to Buck. He ran off to college when he aged up to get away from the family. Tank skipped college and is still in the military from when he was a teen but I think I might have him switch careers next round. Buck wanted a puppy so they adopted Benny. And then we get to General Buzz. Or should I say... Private Buzz. I got a chance card day 1 and I picked terribly wrong. Buzz got demoted from level 10 all the way back to level 1. Tank outranks him. I was devastated. But then he met Bella Goth and had a lot of chemistry with her so now I'm thinking about trying to get them together.

At 19:32 when you're talking about how weird the lot is, I totally agree. I get that it's supposed to be strange because it's Strangetown, but I just hate that lot. I even have a makeover for the lot on ModtheSims because I hate it that much lol
