sims survey
Nov. 1st, 2011 11:09 pmI love surveys. This one is about sims.
Q: How long does your game take to load?
A: 10 minutes now? It used to be less but I have more sims now and more downloads. But a super graphics card + 3 whole gigs of ram (shut up it's a lot for me WHEN I STARTED PLAYING I HAD LIKE .5 GIGS) speeds things up. Back when I played with a super full downloads folder it was like a half hour lol I used to like take a nap waiting.
Q: When making a Sim, what do you prefer: adult male, adult female, teen male, teen female?
A: Usually I make young adults so I can play them through Uni first. And I like females better because they're prettier and more fun to dress up and have so many more hairstyles.
Q: How long does your Body Shop take to open?
A: With all my BS custom content, about... 5-10 minutes? But usually I load it with less if I'm making a specific sim. Like I don't need female or child clothes if I'm making male sims, obvs.
Q: Do you make more Sims in CAS or in Body Shop?
A: BS, because I'm trying to make them more interesting. James, Lily, Sirius, and Remus were CAS sims though.
Q: What's your favorite hair color to put on your Sims?
A: When creating, red, for some reason. Maybe because there are more shades? For sims born in game I keep whatever they get.
Q: How many babies have your Sims ever had from one set of parents?
A: I have one set of lesbians who had 10. 5 from each. All gorgeous.
Q: How often do you experience a glitch?
A: Not too much since I started taking the care of my game really seriously.
Q: Do you make your Sims straight/gay/bi/lesbian very often?
A: Usually whatever way they seem to lean... a lot of times you can tell right away. When I have generations who aren't related I usually do whatever's convenient/cute. I love playing loads of different kinds of sims.
Q: Does your neighborhood have a theme?
A: Harry Potter, duh! And they're all very rich people with very nice gardens and loads of bright colors.
Q: How many downloads do you have in your game?
A: About 3 gigs?
Q: Who is your favorite Body Shop CC creator (meaning skins, eyes, hair, makeup, etc.)?
A: Pooklet's textures, Aelia's clothes... anyone who makes really nice meshes, really. And anyone who does at least semi-Maxis-match textures because photoskinning irritates me.
Q: Who is your favorite CC creator for build and buy?
A: Adele, hands down. I have lots of Parsimonious and Buggybooz stuff but I try really hard not to download too many buy-mode objects.
Q: How often do you play?
A: About 4 or 5 times a week.
Q: Do you watch Sims machinima?
A: you mean sims movies on youtube or whatever? I don't.
Q: Do you read stories/comics made with the Sims?
A: I have in the past. I'm open to doing it again.
Q: What expansion packs do you have?
A: Double deluxe has a lot of functionality from other EPs so it's hard to really say. But I'm supposed to have Uni, Nightlife, and Pets, plus M+G which is where I think I get the shiftable pictures from.
Q: What are you views on building and decorating?
A: I suck at building, but I like open floor plans. Decorating... I'm pretty sparing with non-functional clutter unless I REALLY love it or it fits with the sims on whatever particular lot I'm on.
Q: What is some body shop CC that you tend to over use?
A: I have like 5 eyeliners, all my male sims share like 4 hairs, and there's a Bruno eyeshadow I use a lot because it looks good on everyone. I use it a lot for kids and then branch out when they age up. Plus all my sims get a special lip corner-enhancing makeup.
Q: How often do you need to use "Familyfunds"?
A: I don't. That's why I start new families in Uni, so they can collect stuff with their scholarship money.
Q: Do you like doll Sims?
A: Yeah, but I don't really play them. I only have one I plan on marrying into the family at some point.
Q: Have you ever killed your Sim(s) for the fun of it?
A: Only one and I felt so bad I resurrected her. (Frances the zombie!)
Q: How old are you? When did you start playing?
A: 24 (soon). In 2009. I used to play simtown a lot, does that count?
Q: Do you ever base a Sims family after your own home life?
A: Yep. I've played a few different Ivy and Boyfriend sims.
