Man, am I glad I never played with the unpatched game! It's hard enough to keep an eye on the little buggers as it is!
Interesting (to me, anyway) side note: as I was setting up the Oldie couple in their new house (yes, I'm
still dinking around with the Maxis familys) I found myself unhappy/annoyed by 2 things:
- Mr. Oldie was pre-set to be a (yet
another) Romance Sim. (This is seriously the most over used Aspiration when it comes to the "pre-set" Sims! ) Of corse his LTW was to WooHoo 20 Sims. (Gee, what a shocker....NOT! )
-Mrs. Oldie was set to be a Family Sim, and for some strange reason had no LTW. (It was etheir a glitch or she was really supposed to be that shallow. She didn't
look blonde......

)
Not being even remotely interested in playing
Horny Old Coot Bangs The Neighborhood While His Clueless Wife Sits Home & Knits, I broke out MATY's Lot Debugger (
love that thing) along with SimSlice's Aspiration Grilled Cheese Sandwich, & got busy.
Long story short, they both ended up being (of all things) Pleasure Sims, with the mutal LTW of having 50 Dream Dates!! As you are allowed to "date" your spouse, this works out great (well, for my game purposes) but I just thought it was pretty funny (strange) that an Aspiration as seemily shallow as Pleasure would contain such a.....well....
romantic kind of LTW, while the Romance LTW's are geared for.....well....
pleasure of a sort.
(My LTW is to see some more Aspirations in gerearal added to this game! That's a subject for a different thread however..... )
Getting back on subject, it's interesting to see that there
is hope for playing a truely
romantic Romance Sim! Makes that Aspiration a lot less creepy! Well, to me anyway.....
