Storytelling Socials v1.5
Storytelling Socials v1.5 is here! Itās currently public.Ā Storytelling Socials is an expansive mod that adds over 60+ interactions with an emphasis on storytelling. This update focused on family interactions, though it is rather small. I wanted more interactions, but life got in the way.
In any event, the new interactions are as follows:
Call a Freeloader: Parents can call their adult children living with them freeloaders if they are unemployed. This always fails with Lazy, Slob, and Irresponsible Sims, though.
Check On: An interaction for Compassionate Sims. If a Sim in a bad mood, Compassionate Sims can check on them, which will leave them feeling cared for and inspired.
Express Compassion: Yet another one for Compassionate Sims. If they dislike someone, they can do this interaction, which increases their relationship and makes the Target consider burying the hatchet
Pressure to Succeed: Parents can now pressure their children to succeed in life. Always fails with Lazy, Slob, and Rebellious (Childhood Phase) Sims. It only ever fully succeeds if a Sim is Adventurous, Ambitious, Neat, or Self-Assured.
Lecture about Life Choices: Ā A catch-all interaction that enables parents to lecture their children about the choices theyāve made in life. Teen+ interaction.
Insult Work Performance: Sims can insult their coworkersā performance. Separate interaction from EAās āInsult Work Ethicā, which is only available in active careers.
Insult Children: Do you really want to get under someoneās skin? Now you can insult their children! Only if they have them, though. Family-Oriented Sims definitely do not take this kindly.
Beg Pathetically to Be Taken Back: I finally got this interaction working! When Sims are sad, they can pathetically beg to be taken back. If it works, the two Sims start dating again. If not, wellā¦ your Sim becomes well aware of how pathetic their begging was.
