The Sims 1 was _genuinely_ designed as commentary on sociology and economics, plus a study on language and architecture. The original manual even came with recommended reading on those subjects

[Schizonibba]

you could've lived by just carving gnomes, the higher your skill the faster you make them, and the higher their value rises

True story. Friend of mine had a cat named 30. We're pretty sure he was Ted Bundy reincarnated.

slagathor is truly living the Average Sports Enjoyer lifestyle for the first part of his life

[chris]

But what if we modded this game to add zombies and make it more of a survival game. I wonder what that would be like.

The richest man on earth isn't the man who has the most. It's the one who needs the least.

[PopeBarley]

To explain the 31: 3 and 1 are hotkeys for the game speed. He must've been trying to control it when the text box popped up.

'Was left with nothing'

31 IS RIGHT THERE

[dannyneumann]

Slagathor is perhaps the most divorced sim I have ever seen, really just off-the-charts divorced energy. Well done.

[Trupen]

I'm sorry, but where are guns?
It supposed to be American edition!

If ambiguousamphibian didn't care about whether he picked one option or the other, would he be ambivalentamphibian?

Reminds me of my college days

[keneor]

This might be a bit vain but I strongly relate to what Slagathor taught us. I was never particularly driven by money personnaly. I live in a small appartment, I have a small but good group of friends to talk to, I have a low paying job and yet... Life is good. I do not crave for anything further. Do I sometimes wonder if it would be better to have more space, or being in a relationship? Absolutely. But they are not a goal per se. If it happens it'll happen, else I can still enjoy my current, uneventful but unbothered life. Thanks AA

Imagine starting out OWNING land and 500$ to start with. DAMN.

"This was not a good job. It was a bad job. But I had to take it anyway or I would starve to death"

Just like me. fr fr

1:27 i love how the crummiest entry-level job you can get in this videogame from the year 2000 pays $20 an hour to be able to even entertain the concept of upward mobility

[casassin]

Something about him having this sisyphean task of juuuust earning enough money to not die, but also still getting his dog his own bed amongst his very first belongings really melted my heart. He really said "Who needs windows, when my dog can cozy up in his own bed" and I respect that so much. :')
