Autonomous Casual Romance

[strangetomato]

I just installed ACR.

That is all. ;)







Ophelia: Wanna make out?

Johnny: YES!!!




Random college student: Get a room!

Ripp: *is generally okay with this*




Many, MANY makeouts later... (easily more than 10)

Ripp: *is still generally cool with this*




Not a care in the world...



So, ummm.... jealousy? What jealousy?

(I didn't adjust a thing, by the way.)

Johnny isn't jealous either. He's a 2/4 on the jealousy scale, so he won't kick Ripp's ass unless Phi has a wedding ring on her finger. Phi is 3/4 on the jealousy scale (requires some form of commitment to get jealous, but that wouldn't really apply anyway), and Ripp is... you guessed it... 0/4. He really doesn't give a shit.

Nobody has made any move to woohoo anyone yet and I've played through about a day with them. I wonder when that kicks in?



Anyway, I'm liking this so far. You can adjust things to your liking, so it's pretty easy to control. I've finally jumped on the bandwagon. Go me!

Now, I'm off to play with Pleasantview a little... I'm working it up in the "background" for my story. ACR should be a fun time there.

Not everyone =P I'm still here on the outside looking in & not yet daring. Generation 5 are far too interested in each other's partners for me to dare install ACR. "Oi! Alter is this way. Stop heart farting my cousin & marry me like you supposedly want to."

I love that Ripp really doesn't give a shit. That's just perfect for him isnt it. XD

*puts arm over dragancaor's shoulders and sticks tongue out at everyone else*

It's nice to know I'm not alone. (and your worries are mine, I have so much inappropriate heart farting and random bolts, I'll have to rename Peculiar The Sex Cauldron)

You can make adjustments to prevent that sort of thing. I don't think it would become too much of a problem if you set it up the right way.

Now, I say that, but I need to do more playing around with it to be sure.

I'm pretty sure you can make adjustments to prevent that. You could turn the offending sim's autonomy to 0, or even set them to always reject advances that aren't their spouse. It's pretty flexible.

I agree. Romance sims should generally be less concerned about fidelity. It's so hypocritical. I approve of how this breaks the love-woohoo link from the original programming. That always bothered me a little.
