But me on the other hand? I can’t help but get excited for Fall! There are a couple of staples that always get me in the fall spirit: throwback Halloween movies, chai tea, cable-knit sweaters, and of course some cozy blankets! Nothing is more fall than snuggling up in a blanket on the couch and enjoying all the finer things that the seasons have to offer. And there’s no reason why your Sim can’t do that as well....
Unfortunately, I enjoyed none of these when I was growing up. Not when my whole family was battling for every square meter they could get their hands on. It sucked, but people grow up and are forced to abandon their childhood dreams when it no longer seems practical. But that isn’t the case for Sims, or bunk beds. As more people settle into our little green planet, it’s becoming clearer that this generation’s ark is in the form of bunk and loft beds....
Maybe it’s knowing that the items have such a history, or perhaps for some people they’re more pleasing to the eye than new things. There are even shops dedicated to these items, so those that appreciate them can get a wide selection all at once. That’s kind of what this list is: a condensed antique shop for your Sims! Simmers are certainly antique-lovers in some way, since there’s so much out there to choose from....
Nevermind that Halloween and Thanksgiving still need to happen first… Hey, I get it. ‘Tis the season to be festive and all that—even in the Sims. So if you need a headstart on that holiday cheer for your simulated households, I’ve got you covered. Here are some sweet Christmas and general Holiday-themed pose packs for you and your festive (Sims) family. 1. Deck the Halls Posepack by Lost in Parris Check Out This Pose Pack Cozy Christmas for two?...
I can vividly remember watching Mia Thermopolis’s epic transformation on VHS and thinking why Anne Hathaway wasn’t a real-life princess. Rewatching that classic makeover 19 years later, it’s surprising to realize that the “epic transformation” I loved growing up was simply a brow-plucking and hair-straightening session. If fixing brows can produce a princess-worthy look, then doesn’t that make it the most important facial feature? I’ll answer that with a list of all the best eyebrow CCs that would make anyone look for a makeover....
You could say it’s the love of band tees, skinny jeans, and all things retro. Maybe it’s the unique hairstyles or the penchant for distressed looking clothes. The definition is disputable, but the awesome quality of these hipster CC items is most definitely not up for debate, cause it’s all good stuff! Have any hipster Sims in your game? Then all this CC was made especially for them. Geo Stripe Joggers Check Out This CC Eyesore, or work of art?...
For a game where one of the major selling points is to build and customize your own house, there’s a lot of mods and custom content out there geared towards homelessness. And I’ve got to admit: many of them are quite impressive. Much like real life, Sims face struggles when they don’t have the luxury of modern amenities. Can’t just hop in the shower. Having a meal isn’t as easy as grabbing something from the fridge....
So it’s no wonder why The Sims 4’s selection is fairly limited. Only so much can be included, after all. Yet that reasoning goes out the window once we get into custom content. Kitten heels have been a go-to option for fashionable women for generations. It’s only right our Sims can have the same opportunities to be stylish. 1. SLYD’s Kitten Heels Check Out This CC One of the defining characteristics of this heel is, well, the heel....
There’s a very specific aesthetic that goes with it, however, that isn’t fully supported in The Sims. As with so many other things, CC is the best route to get your Sims looking exactly the way you want. You can easily give your Sims the right look from head to toe thanks to all of these brand new meshes and recolors. 1. School Spirit! Cheerleader Outfit Check Out This CC Cheerleaders are basically the forerunners of school spirit....
But in The Sims 4, my sim self has no such limitations. Whether it’s to live out my heavily(ish) pierced dreams or to design cool characters, adding nose piercings to the create-a-sim experience is super worth it. The glaring issue is that, nose rings or otherwise, there aren’t exactly a lot of options for piercings in the base game. So what do you do when you only need a couple pieces of jewelry to complete your sim?...
One of the worst things that can happen is making the mistake of picking accessories, clothes, and decorations that don’t match. Sure, they may look great on their own. But what about when they’re all part of the same wedding service together? In The Sims 4, this problem is compounded by the fact that CC styles can vary wildly. It’s a no-brainer that default dresses aren’t going to cut it....
As of this writing she’s currently the world’s wealthiest female musician, plus the creator of one the most inclusive beauty brands, and was the most listened-to artist in my iPod Nano back when it was still a thing. Album after album, RiRi never misses a hit. Which naturally makes her one of the best-selling music artists of all time (putting her waaaay above Taylor Swift, Eminem, Mariah Carey, and other music greats)....
That said, it’s not the first time something from Japan has made a splash on this side of the pond. Samurai films were the Japanese equivalent of Western flicks, and they made Samurai famous among Westerners since before World War II. I’m the kind of Samurai nerd who plays Skyrim with a Katana despite owning more powerful weapons – but after a while, it’s simply not enough. I wanted to be a Samurai cutting down enemies in the name of my lord, and thanks to modding, I finally can....
Our survey of 4,000 gamers worldwide has found that almost half (47%) say that they suffer from insomnia and have moderate to extreme problems with their sleep. This may well be down to the devices that gamers use – PC, TV, phone, you name it – all things that emit blue light which has been found to suppress the production of melatonin*, a natural hormone that helps people feel ready for sleep....
In March, Netflix announced that it was adding new features to allow people to share their account securely with friends and family members for a higher cost. The announcement came after the company confirmed that the sharing of passwords between households was impacting its ‘ability to invest in great new TV and films’.* It was also reported that in Q1 2022, Netflix had lost 200,000 subscribers** – the first time it had lost any in a decade....
Whether they’re based in magic, ancient arts, or learned through sheer will and training, there seems to be no end to the unique and genuinely uncommon abilities that characters can have. The worlds we can visit in anime (and the things we can experience, powers included) can sometimes be beyond belief. Occasionally, that’s for all the wrong reasons. So here’s our list of the weirdest powers, superpowers, and quirks in all of anime....
And it’s arguably what made possible for manga to become the worldwide phenomenon that it is today. And how did it do that? By having great comedy, action, adventure, and by showing the true meaning of friendships in its pages. Knowing this, which shounen manga are worth your time? Let’s take a look at some of our top recommendations for you to read and enjoy. 20. Noragami: Stray God This tells the story of the quest of a minor god to gather enough money to buy himself a shrine, and amass a great following in the process....
From the legendary engine of destruction that is the Blue-Eyes White Dragon himself, to powerful arcane masters like the Dark Magician, these cards and their beautiful artworks are engraved into the minds of anyone who grew up in the late 90s. Then there’s Ojamas, who can only be described as the 1% of bacteria that disinfectant can’t kill. Ew. Yep, Yu-Gi-Oh has got some seriously ugly cards lurking beneath the surface....
By throwing enough money at something in Final Fantasy X-2 you can come away with some really nice stuff. The Lady Luck Dressphere comes with a command called Bribe, and you can use this to pay Gil to remove an enemy from battle and receive an item from them. Almost every enemy (and some bosses) can be bribed. And you can use this to get hold of multiple copies of really rare items and accessories....
Walking around on foot in Pelican Town takes forever and drives me nutty bonkers. Horses are much better. And you know what’s even better than regular horses, though? Modded horses. Here’s a bunch worth checking out. 1. Pegasus Horse Check Out This Mod Pegasus in Greek mythology was Perseus’ flying steed. But now for the low, low price of no dollars, he can be yours! This winged wonder has a nice pink and white coloration – and he would be super fun on fairycore farms, if that’s your jazz....
