While I have played all three Sims games repeatedly over the years, I rarely play multiple generations as I rather dislike babies (yes, I did say that out loud, feel free to shoot me later). Many months of lurking on these forums have given me the urge to actually try to complete a legacy style challenge and having received a copy of Generations for Christmas I decided that I'd try to get over my issues with the little nooboos.
So, with much trepidation, I decided to try my hand at an Immortal Legacy game. I didn't do too badly at first and felt like I was really getting somewhere...right up until my heir's first day at school. Having not played children often in Sims 3 I'm not certain how much of this is normal and how much was just plain bad luck.
I let my toddler age up naturally rather than having a birthday celebration so the timing wasn't great and this sent him to school with an energy bar that was only half full. I didn't worry, I figured I could let him sleep when he came home, get him back into a normal sleep pattern and catch up on homework before school. That evening, a burglar decided to pay a little visit and the resulting noise made the energy issue worse. Still not panicking I thought that I'd try something I'd never done before and chose the "work on late homework" option whilst in school. Within seconds of clicking this option my poor little sim was given detention (is this a random thing or a guaranteed result?). Oh well, that was a little annoying but undeterred I carried on. Then a meteor hit the school at detention time.
I have a feeling my poor little sim was being persecuted!
