The only problem is, once you unpause, your character whinges. Oh god, the whinging.
I had to feed it. I send it to cook, but then it has to pee. Which first? Well, since he's started cooking, he can hold it. No. No he can't, he has to pee and he has to do it now. Well, Mr. Fancy Pants, go and pee. No. He can't do that, he's too dirty. I don't know about you, but I pee before I shower.
Either way, he goes to shower. But then he's so hungry. So he eats, but he can't eat because he has to pee, which he can't do because he has no fun. Out sequence: Always pee before watching a movie. Make snacks before hand. Eventually your character dies, proving that you should never get married, never have children, because it will utterly, 100%, ruin your life. And that's the moral of The Sims.
What's worse is the games haven't changed. It's practically the exact same engine with slightly -- and slightly meaning very, very slightly -- better graphics, some more options and some more houses.
We all know that this game appeals to 10 year old girls who enjoy the part where you (rape) have sex with someone. But it doesn't count, because the game gives you life skills.
