simsconfessions:

I don’t understand why people get so attached to their sims. They’re just pixels. I’m relieved when a sim passes on from old age.

I am one of those who gets attached to their sims.  

Because when you’re playing a family for as long as you have been, especially when you play the sim from birth (like my legacy heir, Lombardo Tickian) it’s kinda hard NOT to get attached.  I think I will probably cry when Lombardo dies because I have been playing him for a while, and also, most of his younger brothers, being werewolves, will outlive him (hell, his own father might outlive him), which in itself is kinda sad too.

So it seems like it “oh but they’re just pixels”…while that’s true, you have to look at it from the perspective of the “overly attached Simmer”.
