So I have been playing The Sims Freeplay on my phone for a long time now - on and off so I had quite a few update missions to work through, but you know, still played fairly regularly. I have a lot of Sims; All of Super Junior including past, present and sub unit members, all of Shinee, Lee Minho, myself (obviously), as well as my children with Siwon, Lee Minho, Kyuhyun and Donghae respectively. Plus a random old person that I planned to make an old person wife for eventually. That's 27 sims that I am very happy with, all aged to perfection in perfect houses living perfect lives. T
Now, I've just got round to the Life Quests and Legacies update mission. The tasks seemed fairly normal. Until I had to age an adult Sim into a senior. Eunhyuk was the only Sim free, and having read that aging could be reversed, I completed the task. Then I found out that not only could I not make poor Hyukkie back into an adult, but that from now on, all of my beloved Sims are going to age and die and the only way I can stop it is to kill 4 Sims for every Sim I wish to save.
It's like a horrendous version of Sophie's Choice! I don't want my Sims to die. I've spent hours, weeks, months, hell probably even years on these guys. It's hard enough watching real life people age and die, the last thing you want in a game is too much reality.
I think I have to stop playing the game. Give up on everything to save myself from having to grieve loosing my perfect neighbourhood.
Maybe one day I'll have the strength to rebuild, to start again, and this time, not to start the misery quest and death update mission.
