Who would have expected that The Sims 4 could somehow scare players?
The Sims 4 is known for the fact that of all the parts of the game series, this one is the easiest. While some people love the fact that The Four is heavily facilitated because they can learn the game in peace and explore it from different angles, veterans of The Sims, however, will find it a strong downhill slide and miss the likes of The Sims 2 or 3.
The first parts of The Sims had the highest level of difficulty, and the easiest way to see this is by turning on such The Sims 2 after playing the fourth part of the series for some time. The Sims’ needs fall much faster, they also have higher demands, in addition, money is earned much slower and sometimes it is really difficult to bring any family “out on the straight and narrow”.
The older parts of The Sims are also known for their mysterious storyline, which spans several different universes, as well as the fact that it was much more mature, often even able to disturb with its unexpected plot twists or soundtrack. In The Sims 4, it’s rather difficult to do such things, the game is generally meant to be more friendly and pleasing to the player. However, there’s something that has been bothering players of the latest installment of the Sims a lot lately.
What is the most frightening thing about TS4?
Recently, Simmers have been taking up this topic more and more often. It seems that it’s either some bug in the game that hasn’t been fixed for a long time, or it’s simply some easter egg from the developers. The issue is that the Sims in Four sometimes “come to life” and seem to become aware of their location.
If you pause your game, there is a good chance that your Sim, while pausing, will simply turn its head towards you and look you straight in the eye. Seriously. Many people may not have experienced this yet or simply not paid attention, but more and more players are talking about it.
This time it was a player nicknamed hoitoot who asked if anyone also found it quite creepy. Of course, a whole bunch of other Simmers agreed with this statement, and the post hit the top of the sim subreddit in just a day.
Many players in the comments, of course, wonder if this is a bug related to some update or perhaps a deliberate effort by the developers to poke a little fun at players and scare them. After all, in previous parts of the game, such as The Sims 2, Sims also sometimes looked into the camera, as if they wanted to look straight into the eyes of the person sitting in front of the monitor. This kind of thing makes the Sims seem completely aware that they exist in a simulation and that someone is controlling them, which seems quite frightening.
