Legacy Challenge & Wonder Child Weekly Let’s Play List – Week of 1/12/2015
Hello everyone and welcome to another Legacy Challenge & Wonder Child Weekly Let’s Play List! Each week we will post a list of new Let’s Plays and chapters in separate posts so that you can check out what others are doing and stay up to date with them. I will be posting the Let’s Play list today and the written story list tomorrow (which means that the Let’s Play list will be posted each Monday and the writers list each Tuesday).
Here are the new Legacy Challenge & Wonder Child Let’s Play episodes for the week of January 12, 2015:
Featured Legacy of the Week – Cass’ Avery Legacy!
Welcome to another Featured Legacy of the Week! Each week we will randomly select someone from the pool of Simmers that sent in their Legacy’s info on our “Share Your Legacies with Us!” post. Those of you that haven’t sent in a Legacy yet are still more than welcome to do so. The more the merrier!
This week’s Featured Legacy of the Week is the Avery Legacy by Cass. As of writing this post, the Avery Legacy is currently up to generation 2. You can read all about the family on Cass’ Tumblr. Cass is even creating her own family tree that you can check out to see how the family is progressing!
Happy Simming!
Legacy Challenge & Wonder Child Stories List – Week of 1/5/2015
Hello everyone! As I mentioned in yesterday’s Legacy Challenge & Wonder Child Let’s Play List, I am posting the Stories list today. This list will contain the most recent chapters of written Legacy and Wonder Child stories written by members of the community.
Just like the Let’s Play list, since this is the first one, I will be including stories that have been updated through the entire month of December up until today. Next week will start the weekly updates list, and each week after that will feature weekly updates.
Here are the new Legacy Challenge and Wonder Child Stories for the week of January 5, 2015:
The Europa Legacy – Chapter 5 – Married Life!
Hello and welcome to Chapter 5 of the Europa Legacy! If you haven’t read the previous chapters, they can be found here.
In the last chapter, Geneva and Graham tied the knot after dating for a couple of days. Now I think it’s high time to start working on getting generation 2 started!
Geneva: So… you wanna?
Graham: Teehee!
Featured Legacy of the Week – The Melodia Legacy by JudeSims!
Welcome to another Featured Legacy of the Week! Each week we will randomly select someone from the pool of Simmers that sent in their Legacy’s info on our “Share Your Legacies with Us!” post. Those of you that haven’t sent in a Legacy yet are still more than welcome to do so. The more the merrier!
This week’s Featured Legacy is the Melodia Legacy by JudeSims. This is a written Legacy and is currently up to chapter four. JudeSims had to recently restart due to a corruption causing them to be unable to play their previous Legacy. Luckily that hasn’t stopped JudeSims from writing!
Happy Simming!
Sims 4 Career Top 3 Charts
With the introduction of two new Sims 4 careers and the rebalancing of the existing ones. I took some time to do some deep analysis of the new career landscape. Many of the nitty gritty details of the careers can be found on the Career guide I wrote for SimsVIP right here.
However, while I was writing up the guide for the trees, I began to notice some things. If you take a step back and look at all the careers, side by side, you start to see patterns. It was from this further analysis that I present to you my guide to the Sims 4 Top 3 Charts! I will give you the top three career/branches for each category. Some of the choices are based purely on hard data, others have some subjective components to them. Without any further ado. Here are the Sims 4 Career Top 3 Charts! Note that all of these rankings are based on reaching the top level in that given career/branch.
Merry Christmas from The Sims Legacy Challenge! We Have a Present For You!
Hello everyone! We hope you all have an amazing holiday season! We just wanted to take a moment and thank you all for the amazing support that you showed Pinstar and I this year. We had a bit of a rough year in real life, but being able to interact with all of you and share our love of Sims with you has been amazing and has helped us get through the tough times.
As a bit of a Christmas present we wanted to let you in on a little (ok, it’s not really that little) secret project that Pinstar has been working on. He is working on bringing the popular Apocalypse Challenge from the Sims 2 over to the Sims 4! We know a lot of you have been clamoring for this challenge since The Sims 4 was released. This challenge is huge in scope, moreso than even the Legacy Challenge, so it takes some time to get written up and playtested, but it SHOULD be up in the next month or two. So keep and eye out, I will try to update you on Pinstar’s progress with it when I can!
In the meantime, if you want to play the Apocalypse Challenge for the Sims 2, check out the rules here.
As an aside, if you don’t already own the Sims 4, it is currently on sale on Amazon for $20 off the regular retail price. So get it while you can!
Legacy Challenge Rules Update (for the November & December patches)
Happy Chrismahanakwaanzaka! Here are some updates and rulings for the Legacy Challenge in response to the changes made in both the November and December patches.
- The 11th death type, death by drowning, is now required to finish the “Collect every death type” point.
- * The Athletic and Business branches are now required for the “Get a sim to the top of each career” as well as the “Have a Sim reach the top of every branch”
- After it was found that ghosts were guzzling potions of youth built up for the Deviance score, you may release their spirits if you don’t want to risk a thirsty ghost finding your potions.
- You may fully utilize the new time off, vacation days, and family leave system introduced.
- Note that job promotion requirements and aspiration requirements have both changed…but the rules and scoring for these has not (Besides the additions of the two new careers mentioned earlier.)
- Added a new heir law to the heir selection page – Democracy. With Democracy you can have others vote on your heir.
We Now Host the Sims 2 Apocalypse Challenge!
Hey everyone! I just wanted to let you know that we are now hosting the rules for the Sims 2 Apocalypse Challenge! They were originally hosted by the Apoca-Borg website, but the owner of the site has recently asked that we take it back over. Currently I have Pinstar’s original Sims 2 Apocalypse Challenge core rules up, and I am working on adding the additional rules for the expansions. It’s a HUGE challenge so it will take some time to get it all up, but if you are interested in checking out the core ruleset for the Sims 2 base game, then head on over to the Sims 2 Apocalypse Challenge rules! I will also be adding a scoresheet in the next couple of days as well.
This is rather appropriate timing too… I won’t say more than that though 😉
