[Graveyard] Blonde, Brunette, or Redhead?
« on: July 27, 2024, 10:23:14 PM »
The first time I created a dynasty attempt for this was back in 2015, never did finish, went on a 8 years hiatus from Sims.  I'm back and wanting to give this dynasty new life, will do my best to complete.   This is mainly a place for some notes and screenshots, silent film / story mode.

Each of your bloodlines are advancing so very quickily!
I do enjoy seeing their actual progress in your calendar spreadsheet images.
Caitlyn is smashing through her Painter career! How is she getting daily promotions?
Is it a combination of the Well's guaranteed promotions and Negotiate a Bonus?

ty @oshizu -- all careers are promoted in one day because of "Atrocious" reputation.  Before starting career I have them all go to town and start fights everywhere until they get Atrocious, then bribe boss for work performance.  Most of them pay $3000 for each level (3 bribes), I bribe until the work performance bar is at excellent, then go work one day for promotion.

Oh wow, I learn something new about The Sims 4 everyday! Thanks so much for sharing your strategy!

Malcolm Landgraab contributed great genes to the Spellcaster Ferrero bloodline!
Ezreal is very good-looking.
Sett and Jayce are also attractive, but Ezreal is my fave this generation.
Watcher, you are moving soooooo fast!

Sett is my fave this generation.  All the easy aspirations are done, now onto the harder ones (and the ones I'm unfamiliar with), going to take longer.  :'(

Your three bloodlines are pretty advancing at the same pace, except that the Gen3 Mansion Baron heir is already a toddler.

As for aspirations, my least favorite one is Friend of the Animals. That always takes me forever!
I read along while glazeyLady's heir did the Championship Rider aspiration (or whatever it's called) in her Jumble Legacy and getting all the gold awards took so long!
I'm very grateful to Glazey for showing us that aspiration but now I will NEVER even try it.

I'm impressed at how quickly your Aline sims ar finding such lovely spouses.
Looking forward to your choice of aspirations for the last six heirs!

Mirror is my best friend.  I use mirror and change all their looks / clothing, all aliens must have red hair!

Ah yes, the Change Sim interaction. Still, you are very good at creating appealing sims.
Can't wait to meet Sett's child!

The Gen4 Alien heir is adorable with her little pointy ears and red hair!

Compared to Taric in his fancy suit and Fabio hair, Elsa Bjergsen is definitely looking very cottagecore. LOL!

You are really racing through this challenge, Watcher!
It's hard to believe that all three bloodlines have already started their fourth generation!
And I'm sure each bloodline's final heir is just around the corner!

That's a shame about seasonal harvests preventing the Alien bloodline's progress!
Couldn't you simply extend the eaves of your Alien's house to provide sheltered growth?

I do have indoor plants, but still waiting for them to grow is just painful.  I'm impatient.  Also figured out I could take clippings of out of season plants and graft it onto in season ones to produce, might get lucky but still have to wait.

I have decided to cheat so my alien heir don't have to suffer through many days or weeks of sleeping just to pass the days while waiting for plants to grow.   :)

Grrrr, waiting for plants to grow is so annoying!  Waiting for anything in the Sims that involves RNG is super painful!
I didn't play Aliens in my RDC so I have no tips to share.  Looking forward to what strategy you devise to ensure your Alien Bloodline can keep up with its rivals!

Your aliens in human disguise remain the most attractive!
Talon is such a great combination of Taric and Elsa's genes, though.

@oshizu - I will be deleting this soon.  I have come up with my own rival dynasty challenge with slightly different ruleset, will be posting at a different board.
