  1. Now when I think about this... I kind of get to like #Sims4 being so full of painfully American stereotypes I know from reading a lot of novels. Hippies living in campers? Conspiracy theory freaks with weird machines on yards? Teenage werewolves occupying squats in abandoned factories? Cowboys and ranchers?

    Several years ago I was very active in #writting communities in Polish group blogs. Mainly in fantasy settings, but there were many different genres. It had specific thrill - creating stories, not intended to have an end like novel, embedded with universe shared with other authors and their stories. Authors influences stories of others in subtle ways. Interactive living world shaping stories and being shaped by them.
    Currently, after death of group blogging spheres, I couldn't find anything scratching that particular #storytelling itch. Writing short stories for competions - or even for myself - is not exactly the same.

    And I feel #TheSims4 with current features is another partial substitute for me. I love taking some of existing things, shaping them slightly more to my tastes and mixing it with my own original visions. Using existing aesthetics and atmosphere and expanding it. Creating many parallel stories in shared universe.
    I have a lot of official DLCs and even more weird mods. I play with aging disabled globally to have full control on continuous story I want to create here. I try to catch some "vibe" and follow it.

  2. Królewskie dziedzictwo to rozszerzenie raczej mierne. W miarę zjadliwe, ale mimo wszystko rozczarowujące w kontekście tego, czym mogłoby być.

  3. I just signed a petition for Congress to block the EA buyout.

    Saudi Arabia and Jared Kushner’s company are in the process of buying out EA for $55 billion. People are concerned that this might have negative effects on things like the queer-friendliness of The Sims.

    Keep gaming in a publicly traded US company and not privately held in Saudi Arabia!
