Sims Player: I want more realistic/surprising deaths. *installs mods* Sims Player: NO, not this way. My poor sims are dying.😭 I hate this mod.

"they don't die enough" oh my, this sounds so wrong without context

I remember when I was about 10, playing a totally vanilla game my favorite sim’s son died from a satélite and I got so sad I cried and didn’t save the game (and lost like 15 days of gameplay, I didn’t save often)

2020: Cindy: MORE DEATH, DISEASE AND DRAMA

"Because in the vanilla game, sims never die of the flue" Me: Let's not bring up last week when my pregnant male sim died from the flue with his needs low because I ran off to the bathroom and let the game running.

that little dog has suffered a lot during the filming of this video!

Don Lothario suddenly combusted once in my game, and the rest is history. Note to self: don't woohoo yourself to an early grave in the tub.

I used the miscarriage mod in my Victorian Sims 2 legacy and sometimes it was quite heartbreaking. In generation 2 alone, 3 of my ladies suffered from them. One lost two of her children that way. She and her husband then chose to adopt and fortunately, she brought 3 healthy kids into the world afterward. Aided by LOTSA bedrest :)

Ooh. So excited. I have a tendency to have way too many children after a couple generations.

If the a sims game with no mods called “Vanilla”.is the moded game called “Chocolate.”???

discovered you because of sims 2, stayed because of your great personality and positive vibes

The only time they ever died from mystery disease was if you make them use the biotech station when they were already sick with it

Ah yes, drama, the Sims 4 could never

This is exactly what I need. More drama XD

Oh no, I could never let my Sims die. Once a beloved sim of mine died and I was so devastated I couldn't play the game for weeks even though I didn't save the death! But still an interesting video as always

You had the same shocked expression as I had when I combined Realist Illness and Fast Disease Processing together. 50% of the Pleasantview population was wiped out. I have never seen the Death by Childbirth until now. Usually, I roll a D10 to see if the mother/father to be will die in childbirth. I also roll to see if they have a miscarriage.

Yaaaasssssss, drama, chaos, death. This is why I play The Sims. I want my games to be a trashy reality show 🤣

I'm currently not running any death mods outside of the better electrocution check. I've experienced death by disease a few times even without mods. One time I had Tommy Ottomas use the surgery table for a while and then sped the game up while he was doing. During the speed-up he just suddenly stopped what he was doing and keeled over and I don't even think his motives were that low. Same thing happened with another sim I had I hadn't even played much. One day he just woke up from his bed and proceeded to die from disease. I've actually also had a few satelite deaths in a row (without mods), which made me fearful of fulfilling the "See a shooting star" want that many Science hobby sims tend to get really frequently. Since the death check is only at the beginning of the star gazing, it happened pretty much immediately after I made them stargaze.

Death by Satellite is traumatic. Spent ages making my first sim and her house let her cloud gaze while I figured out what to do with her and she died. She was only 1 ingame hour old

Conspiracy theory: mysterious disease is corona virus The Sims 2 was trying to warn us

That explains why one of your videos is called "Can the Burbs survive the flu"...

I remember I played Strangetown maybe fifteen or so years ago, probably more. Jenny caught a cold. I tried to take care of her, but alas she died of pneumonia. In a vanilla game. Just my luck.😂😂

Grandmas comfort soup sounds good to me right now

I play in a medieval setting and also use the disease mod by simler90 and death by childbirth, because both are easily tuneable. The higher my midwife gets in her career, the less likely it is for my sims to die of childbirth. Once institutions like a bathhouse, an apothecary and a charity hospital are established (I mixed my playstyle with elements of MCC & BaCC), I will lower the chances for dying of sickness. EDIT: I forgot to mention: Simler90 has a mod, that greatly modifies temperature impact. Though sims can't die from cold, they might catch a cold, when their temperature is low, which might worsen and kill them because of disease. The mod also alters the mood of the sim, when they are too hot/cold and if sims are in a bad mood, their sickness worsens quicker. I hope, you understand, what I'm on about. :)

I've always been intrigued by death of flies. I've tried filling my sims' house with trash and dirty dishes but it never works. They actually end up dying of flu because of the roaches

Me, with my main hood being an alien colony plus 70 different Strangetowns: *nodding along* "Ah yes realism"

Your channel is growing subs like mad ! Been here since July 2019 when you started strangetown or something ! :)

Petition for Sid to feature in one of your Let's Plays 😂😂 he is cute *and* dramatic... what more could we want?

The first time I ever got heatstroke in my game Jennifer Burb spontaneously combusted! I guess I was just very unlucky!

I'm traumatized by the satelite's death, one of my best Sims died by watching the stars on Uni (without mods) I think that mod I'll pass LMAOOOO

Don't have the mod but I randomly qued up cloud gazing for Angela and while fixing the house, saving, and going back into the game to get Lilith and Mary-Sue ready for something to do, I noticed someone's icon was missing. I looked in the yard lol 😆 Angela was killed by a satellite, grim came and went and I didn't notice. Luckily I saved just before she did the action lol I was not losing her that way.

One of the most memorable deaths in my game was the guy who spontaneously combusted right after taking a bath 😂 . I was poking about with a group of sims who lived without shelter and who were a bit too keen on the woohoo. It was the middle of summer, he had just had some fun, and decided to take a hot bath on top of that. He climbed out of the bath and immediately burst into flames!

Cindy, I think you have a mod that prevents them from going away while they're cooking, that's why the first try of the fire showcase didn't work! :D

I never used mod on Sims 2 nor Sims 3. I think I felt the necessity with Sims 4 ~ But a few days ago I watched your setup video and started applying a few advices and I'm thrilled!!!! Tyvm !!

Think I must be really unlucky XD I've lost a ton of sims from sims 2 and 3 out of nowhere and from everything from sickness to meteor.

I highly recommend No Instant Firefighter & Cop by Piqiwi on Mod the Sims which adds a random delay between the emergency services showing up on the lot. This means that your sims could have to try control the fire themselves much longer than a couple of seconds when there is a smoke alarm.

I was just looking for this kind of mods yesterday! Thank you so much! I need more death drama

I played the sims 2 after watching this video and 2 of my sims died within 30 minutes of each other. One in a fire and the other died while pregnant 🤦‍♀️. My game clearly wants me to have drama without mods 😂😂😂😂

Thank you so much for doing these mod overviews! I have quite a lot of sims 2 cc/mods, but I always find I'm missing something. Will definitely be picking up a few of these to add to my game!

I love your channel it has kept me laughing through my depression thank you for the awesome content ❤️

Death due to overheating? It happened to me once, a long time ago. When I played a completely vanilla game, no hacks, no mods, I didn't really know them. Back then it was a very hot summer in the game, the sims were basically still in the red temperature, even inside. Once a male sim, the father of a family, went to the greenhouse to take care of the flowers, I didn't pay much attention to him, let him do his thing. Suddenly I heard screams and fire, everyone rushed to the garden to the greenhouse, and I see that the sim is on fire, I was so shocked. I didn't have time to do anything. It went very fast. Only his wife tried to put it out, but he died in the fire. In the family tree, his face was still red. As if he were overheated. Shocking, sad and funny at the same time... But I managed to take at least a screenshot! I apologize for the low quality, it has been more than ten years. Hope the link will work : flic.kr/p/2jFyJBV Anyway, I like the video! All of your videos, your ideas and everything. Thank you for making my days better. Thank you very much Cindy. ~Anna

Spontaneous Combusting is a thing! In my game, Angela Pleasant (an elder) died this way. She got out of bed, her skin was red and she just dropped dead!! It was very dramatic !!

It's amazing how much effort you put on your videos, you deserve waaay more subs! ❤

wow what an interesting video you posted on my birthday!! i have been following your BACC streams and let me say that how i loooove your new hair and general style honestly (i might be missing that sims 2 a lot but i can get used to it) keep your content coming cindy lots and lots love from me to you!!

There is a mod at MTS I believe, that causes fire fighters to arrive later than in vanilla game. Although, if you combine it with the More Dangerous Fire mod, it could be quite a challenge to keep your Sims alive :D

I had samantha ottomas almost die of the flu in my vanilla game, she had just given birth to the twins so she didn't get rest, she was going to die but dora pleaded for her and she survived.

I have had several sims in ts2 die from heat stroke and it was especially sad because they were college students about to graduate. there was no fire involved, it was just summer.

Likely what hapenned with Rosa Lothario in Pleasant family. The last let's play you made was wtf for me, oh my god.

great video as always, cindy! i'll be trying some of these out in my game. :D

RIP Rosa! 🙏🏽 cool mods, I'm going to check them out! Especially the death by satellite.. I have a lot of sims with the nature hobby lol

Me after watching your Sims2 videos for about six hours in a row: "Oh, I really need to get a suitable computer and find all my old CD's..."

Sims in the sims 2 definitely don’t die enough from illness, I need these 😂

Reading your gameplay rules inspired me to make one up for my own gameplay, so now when a sim in a career I consider to be high risk (military, policing, etc) goes to work, I generate a number from 0-100. If I get 11-25, the sim is injured on the job and has to use all their PTO to recover, and if I roll 1-10 they die on the job 👌

I have the death by childbirth mod and Cassandra died when she gave birth to her first child, luckily for her Don cheated death. Otherwise he had to change his ways and be a single parent lol.

I had a sim spontaneously combust! This was a very long time ago. My sim was in the hot tub for a very long time because of a nearby dragonsnap plant. When she got out she burst in to flames! I was so surprised. Though snap dragon plants are great. Back in the day I use to put evil snap dragons around sick sims and I lost a few sims that way.

Thank you for this! The vanilla game has always seemed a little too easy. These should add some challenge into the mix

Your videos are a great pick me up, even the sickness ones 😂 so thanks 💚

Just a short note what i've forget to tell you guys: if you want to download the death by childbirth mod happens this when you click on the link: Uh oh! Maintenance mode! SFS is currently offline while we move to a different server setup!. Update 7th September 17:15 CEST: Database import in progress Thank you for your patience, The SFS Site Staff

Little Hank Burb doesn’t like this video 🥺

I remember that my primary school friend had Romeo die of food poisoning after eating spoiled pizza, in a vanilla game, but I never had this happen to me, although believe me I tried. I also infected Angela pleasant with both food poisoning and pneumonia, but she drowned in the pool (law energy), before my experiment was complete :( . Yes I know I'm evil :D.

Me: Oh yeah I wanna install ALL of these Also me: but I dont want my sims to die :(

Years ago, I had a Sim get out of the hot tub and spontaneously combust! It scarred me so much that as soon as their thermometer turns red I get my Sims out of the hot tub and into the house 😂

Living for your vids, queen.

I have seen sims combust from heat in my game. Although the "sims" were Rebecah's farm animals that are NPCs. They were out in the field in summer and just caught fire. I thought it was a glitch!

In all the 15 yrs ive played ive had 1 sim die of flu, but only because she was pregnant and i couldnt keep her needs up! Also, Jenny Smith died 1 time from eating spoiled food. Again, ive been playing x15 yrs.

In one of my first families, I had a father of the family die of cold - I didn't know I'm supposed to take extra care of him. Oh, did I cry afterwards...

Hi Cindy, Please could you do a tutorial on how to use SimPE? Would love learn more about SimPE. Thank you so much for your amazing videos! Love your channel 🤗

OMG you're so funny lol, love it! please continue sharing TS2 content!

Yes!!!! Been waiting for this!!!

thank u for not starting ur video with "hi guyysssss" like all other youtubers hahaha

My sim once died in vanilla, after work. I guess it was because of sicknes. I didnt save it, and when I came back in this new unsaved gameplay - she didnt die. Though I have saved it while she was already at work. Happends once to me. I used to play really a lot

Heat is also interesting. Once i've had a sim who catched fire from overheating. There is an exercise Bicycle in the game, he used it a long time at once.

I have the realistic diseases but not the more dangerous fire because I know myself too well. (And 9/10 times when there is a lightning storm a tree will catch fire) I also have the childbirth death mod and it happend to me once and completely caught me of guard

Wow I’m already using the realistic sickness mod but I might get the rest of these in the name of DrAmA and ReAlIsM!! Thanks Cindy!

I remember when, as a kid, I had just managed to get my first sim ever impregnated by aliens (it was only base game back then, so no in-game methods of increasing the chances, plus I didn't know about mods) and then I ordered him to cloudgaze for whatever reason, and HE JUST HAD TO BE THE SIM TO EXPERIENCE DEATH BY SATELLITE. I was, first of all, VERY CONFUSED, and also very upset because I hadn't saved after the alien abduction, so after I quit without saving, the sim wasn't pregnant anymore. You bet I never forgot to save right after a major event after that! Also, right after I got the Seasons EP, I had the spontaneous combustion death occur. I had purchased some of the new, pretty interesting looking decor for my sim (it was either the jug of wishes or the wishing doll, either way they gave off a magical aura in my child brain), and when she suddenly went up in flames, I immediately thought the decor object was cursed or something and had caused it! I still get the creeps from those objects, innocent as they may be, and I've never given them to any of my sims ever again. I'm also like 99 % sure a sim can die while at work in the military career, but I never see anyone talk about it. I remember my friend telling me about her sim dying that way, and then I tried my hardest to replicate it and managed to do it as well. It had to do with a chance card about rushing into battle or something, and if the sim failed, the carpool would drop off their urn at the mailbox. Maybe it has been patched out, I just don't know why I've never seen it talked about anywhere despite having searched for info about it, and it's driving me crazy because I'm SURE it happened! But yeah, I guess you could consider me either very lucky or very unlucky, depending on how you look at it!

You're really determined to set my husband on fire lmao

I've been playing.... more than ten years if I had to guess, and I've had a total of one spontaneous combustion death. It's cemented in my memory because it was such an odd thing to have happened. A teenage boy, coming home from school to an apartment block (A young witch, ironically). Zorched into flames, and of course I had no idea it was happening so I couldn't react in time. Ended up having his little sister study the paranormal to earn the bone phone and resurrect him later.

I need all of these mods!😆 The examples of how they work were really helpful so thank you! I do have a question though, I’m not sure how the miscarriage mod would work with the 18 hour pregnancy mod?🤔 Really appreciate this video!!

Interesting! Tempted to try the childbirth death one for the oldish hood. Unrelated but WCIF the border/ fence on Cyd’s porch? Thanks!

hey Cindy! Thank you very much for this video. It will bring so much drama into my gameplay! Quick question: For Increased Die by Satellite mod the site is down and i can't find it online. Do you know where can I find it?

Florence delerosa who is now Florence dreamer in my game (yeah, I didn’t expect it either) has died twice during childbirth with that mod Darren was able to plea for her life both times, thankfully.

Strangely, this made my day...

Hiya Cindy. I downloaded your sims 3 pleasant view town today, with the save file and followed the steps you provided, but when i load the game, the pleasant view save file isn't there? just wondering if you had any ideas. Love your content by the way! been a fan for ages!

I have the fire mod and my sims were not living alone. I had a huge 7 sim family and one of the teens was helping out cooking mac and cheese for everyone and the fire killed everyone in the house, destroyed all of the furniture, and killed several npcs who were walking by as well. I think Marisa Bendett was one of them. I think I tried to keep the sims alive but I couldn't. So it's not just dangerous for sims living alone.

Me, downloading mods that make life more difficult to stay alive: 🤩🤪🥳☺️ Me, when my sims actually die by anything other than old age: 😱☹️😤😫

Why did I immediately get attached to sid! I love him 😳😔

My favourite part about the sims games 🥰🥰

Maybe I should make a "Mod Maker" thing that makes it easier to adjust these constants. I'm already quite familiar with the SimAntics engine.

I'm conflicted about the disease mods. I hate the coughing animations so I don't want diseases to last longer but I'd like a higher chance of dying from the flu. Like "John caught the flu, you better rest now" (and if you haven't in 3h, your Sim COULD die. But I don't want them to be ill for longer. Does one of the two disease mods do that?

hi Cindy, all of these mods are sooooo helpful, I have a question, though, about the Alt Preg Controller Lite. it seems to be conflicting with some pregnancy mod I have (not Inteen), so I wanted to ask, what specific pregnancy mods do you have that are compatible and working with the Alt Preg mod ?

I saw the notification on discord. Now I'm here watching before 20 views. XD

This is my first time seeing the Sims 2 and it actually looks dope though.

I wish there was more variety to deaths in sims 4. Ive only ever died from burning from a stove fire or my vampires burning in the sun or from drowning thats it. The only death that surprised me was the vampire burning from sunlight cuz my game glitched so my sim got stuck outside while time kept moving then day came so he burned to death.

“I really want to try this mod,” cue Pleasantview pandemic. Lol.

Where can I find the house you used? It's so pretty!

Are frequent and fast disease processing compatible? Or do you need to choose one?

Hah, only had a sim die from overheating once. Sims were on a date in the summer and in the hot tub, guy sim got out and boom fire! 😂 I was so confused until I remembered seasons

Weird I thought Sims could die of heat and cold, maybe that's just Sims 3. I might download them.

I had the first version of disease so no wonder why every single sim died X'D

Interesting type of video to post during a pandemic lol
