Uberhood - Downtown - Julien Cooke
First uberhood pictures taken with Fraps instead of ingame camera. They're 800 x 500 instead of the regular ingame camera 600 x 450. Also first time playing with ACR2!
Julien Cooke was our first experiment (I like that name better when it's spelt Julian D:).
Julien (on the right, made-over) and the welcome wagon.
His house...
Going to work...
...And then, just before he got home from work, this happened. The rain stopped, and the tree remained on fire. I tried sending him to the phone to call the fire department, but Julien saw the fire, panicked in true stupid sim fashion, and ran over. I tried to make him put out the fire himself, but it caught him and... there was nothing I could do.
The end.
So we quit without saving and reloaded. I'm all for random accidents, but no one else lived on the lot and I felt poor Julien needed another chance.
So, starting over. Julien in his kitchen.
Same welcome wagon, plus random passerby Christy Stratton.
Julien's bedroom.
We sent him on an outing downtown. Here he's getting to know Patricia Wan.
Loki Beaker is also out and about.
He and Jan Tellerman apparently agree that people who fail at bowling are hilarious.
Julien meets Marissa Cleveland.
They hit it off. Marissa doesn't seem to mind getting back at her cheating, gay husband.
Is Tiffany offering Marylena... advice? A warning? A lecture? Gossip? We can only guess.
The waiter seems concerned.
Toby Bruening is a jerk and picks fights with everyone.
Success. ACR2 has autonomous first kisses.
I think Toby might be in trouble...
Afterwards they headed to a different community lot...
...where Count Jerry or whatever his name is kept doing this. To at least 4-5 different people. Great guy.
Julien invites Marissa over for a date.
His homemade mac & cheese (Marissa's favourite) doesn't work out so well, though.
She doesn't seem to mind too much.
Not at all.
Julien's bathroom.
Some party pictures. I need to learn to click away the dialog boxes before taking pictures. I am getting better at remembering it.
