Maxis Taste Dare No. 26

Jan 13, 2012 11:30

Is anyone else thinking about participating in Maxis Taste Dare No. 26: Second Chances? The idea of this one appeals to me, though I'm struggling with who to focus on. My recent playing of the entire uberhood has given pretty much everyone a chance, though I guess the point of the exercise would be to find something more to like in a character that ( Read more... )

Trent Traveller? (wasn't he one who you never really enjoyed so much)

For truly abandoned folks, I'd go for University pre-mades (not for LaFT, of course). There are so many of them they all kind of blend together. And you wouldn't have to bother with a house makeover if you did some of them (just slap them in a dorm together).

Hm. I could do Chaz Whippler, I never liked his useless, Benjamin Long-clone face.

This made me laugh. It's how I feel about most premades that are template clones.

Chaz is one sim that seems to have potential, but I'm never really sure of what to do with him and he does sort of bleed into the other romance/waster/lazy ass male college sims. It's a common type floating through the various unis.

Yeah, a lot of the students are already kind of bland, mainly due to there being so MANY of them, I think. When they're a template clone, they don't even have an interesting appearance going for them.

That's an awesome idea. I may even go with that instead of Peterson, like I was thinking. A few of those uni guys look so bleh at first sight, but, you never know, they may surprise us.

Yeah, Trent is a good one, but I have actually played him quite a bit. Or as much as any other household, anyway. I'm still not overly into him, so maybe I could try him for this. Maybe I could take him and his family on a vacation like they're meant to in their setup?

Some of the uni kids get a fair bit of play in general (and not just the LFT crowd) and in my game in particular. And like the rest, I've been making an effort to play them all up to a certain point in time in the uberhood. But yeah, there are still some of them that I don't really know what to make of. It might be fun to work them out as characters.
