Most of the museums in The Sims is genuinely so pretty outside sometimes but other than that, mfs were made with nothing but depression and black coffee at 5am in the morning.
then there’s the del sol valley one …
TH-cam just asked me how I felt about your comment
@@aellom2749 how did you answer
That’s why I love the Sims 4 gallery.
I think it be really cool if your Sim could showcase their work as an exhibit in the museum. Maybe have it be a contemporary installment or something like that. It could be asa reward for the top tier of an artist career, or something like that.
Oh yes! Temporary art exhibits would be cool too. And other sims can come judge the painting like they do in Cottage Living
think it was in sims 3 when you sold your artwork to the museum it would actually appear in the museum
Agreed! I actually think about this a lot since I was kind of bummed out that they didn't do this. Especially with the arts center that came with city living that has an art gallery
someone mod this QUICK!!!
I love this idea. it gives them a purpose and ties the career to the real world, well I mean like outside world. cause jobs are like completely separate worlds from regular life in this game
We literally have an archaeology gamepack and they didn't even update museums for it or make archaeology a worth while skill outside of the world it came with.
It's really a shame. Although, I suspect the sims didn't want to get involved in the debate of "taking treasure from another country and displaying it in your own". Although sims are essentially grave robbing already, so maybe they didn't really think it through that deeply
@@WaterAce168 What annoys me is it would be cool if it was a feature n the game where you could decide what to do with it. You can decide to send this artifact to OG sim country, keep it for private collection, sell it to private collection or build a museum in whatever town you're from
@@RaroHi yeah that would be great. After all, sims can also be about being a villain. It would be great if everyone from Selvadorada hates you if you take the artefacts. You could do a redemption arc, or work with temporary exhibits. It would be very interesting moral gameplay, that also teaches young simmers about handling cultural heritage. But yeah. Too much for the sims
We don't have an archaeology game pack. We have an antiquarian game pack. Where you go to a hustling bustling foreign country and steal the artefacts from the native population who are the ones telling you about the history of the place anyway. They're there sharing their culture and you swan in, steal their stuff and bugger off back home to put them in your display cabinet. All whilst just on holiday. There's no classes you have to attend to learn to be an archaeologist (IRL you have to attend university like I did), there are no digs you have to pay to attend to get enough experience to even get a job in the first place. There's no excavating before building construction goes ahead. No carefully recording the contexts of the layers which tell you all the important information (an object removed from its context might be pretty, but you can't learn as much from it as you can from observing it where it was in situ). Nothing like that. Its just grave robbing simulator. Its like they just wanted to make a Lara Croft pack honestly. I was actually excited to have archaeology in the game thinking it would be a fun career to play (especially since my disabilities prevented me from actually pursuing it as a career IRL after I finished university). And I was so bitterly disappointed by the pack.
Museum heists!! Good sims could choose to donate collectibles to the museum, and evil sims could choose to steal them!
+ kleptomaniacs
@@alick7825 kleptomaniacs can already just take stuff at the museum, but it'd be so good if new stuff were added eventually
Make it a thing you can do with the criminal career! And/or an optional objective for a sim doing the villainy degree in college go there to gather information on how to perform a heist for a presentation board or something (though idk about it at the same time since the time/etc it takes just to do homework/etc is so long, but hence why optional. Like how you can ask for feedback when working on it, click on the board, go to a museum and you can go around clicking on stuff to gather history/information).
oo wait what if like if you were top tier of the criminal career or whatever you could rob the museum and like you get to actually go with them. like it doesn't have to be an active career, but it'd be fun to do missions fr sometime
@@floram9481 yeah and if like all of your sims had the option to not just view, but like learn about the things and you get a notification. they could look at art and really think about the meaning of it. it would build the mental or logic skills. I mean it could build other skills to ig. if you look at enough things that relate to each other. like enough looking at painting could build ur painting skill
Wouldn’t mind a museum based kit or stuff pack with interactive items. Could build logic, Selvadorian culture, rocket science, and similar skills.
omg with like lore like the van haus estate would be so cool! like it could tell us the story of princess cordelia with a tour guide or those things you can listen to in museums
Or they could just add it to base game and stop charging for things that should be baseline.
it seems we’ve all forgotten about updates
@@NokoFace Yes that is much better 😊
More like for free as an update
It would be cool to have museums/art museums that reach out to you if you have high fame from being a painter or if you are high in the painter career. So you can see your sim's work in an actual museum and there would be an event like there is for Get Famous with the award ceremony.
Or if u have a big collection of fossils or something! And u could get fame and reputation by donating or letting them hold the collection for a while
Or a curator NPC who you can sell art to and it gets added to the walls etc if they like it enough
when jesse makes a powerpoint you know sh*t’s about to get real
Amen! 😆 👍
with all of the collectibles in the game, i wish there were museums based on those. a mysims figurine museum, frog museum, or fossil museum would be so cool!
so true! i one time (literally only once) had a sim collect everything and turn it into a museum but it would be nice for there to be actual info involved with these exhibits similar to when u ask a sim for fishing tips or whatnot
@@jessika5297 that’s so cool that you did that!!
Yes!!
I make museums and fill them with the collectibles using all the like, unlock hidden item cheats! I do a frog room, fish room, fossil room, even one with all the pictures you get from having your sims use the microscope and telescope. Oh! and all the crystals - I love the crystal rooms haha
My most recent one featured a creepy as hell gnome room based on one of lil' Simsie's shells!
Edit: They are functional if you make the lot trait museum too, other sims from around the game will show up if you take your sim there. They could DEFINITELY still use improvements though.
It's still only you clicking "view" for your sims when you go there after all :(
Ooohh! There could be a National History Museum so that there could be a dinosaur exhibit! If they let me recreate the NHM in London (complete with the carved stone animals to stick everywhere for decoration) with a dinosaur exhibit with an animatronic T-Rex.... Oh that would make me so happy.
I would love to see an update for libraries too! Better organization of the books so you can find the skill books you need, and it would be cool to actually be able to borrow books. Story times to help toddlers learn communication skill faster, and programs to help kids learn other skills they need. I love what you said about school assignments, and the same could be said for libraries too. Maybe librarians could even help kids with homework, because I know the librarians where I live do that a lot
Yeah and all the libraries have the same books for no real reason. There is a borrowing books mod iirc
I love to imagine plumbella’s videos being played in the developers board meetings. Sitting there seriously watching her say what do museums do? Fuck all !! Like yes girl tell them what’s up lol
Not gonna lie I did forget we had museums in the sims 4. I think that says a lot.
I really wish there was heirlooms. That would tickle my legacy nerve so much. Kind of like how in Sims 3 statues and nectar could age and become more valuable, but over generations.
Objects could have sim ownership like the bed-sides do, and they get passed on when a Sim dies, or gifted to other Sims in life, and they become slightly more valuable (or less valuable, depending on the object) as time goes on.
Would also be kind of cool if objects had a sort of family tree where it shows which sims it got passed on to. Like you could click on the grandfather clock and see how many Sims owned it, or if any famous Sims used to own it. That would be SO cool. There could be objects owned by famous Sims that you could put in a museum lol You could either learn some really cool lore that way, or create your own cool lore in your own worlds that way.
And with an object ownership/heirloom system, that could make divorces way more interesting too. Sims can take what they own with them, or leave everything, or try and take everything from the other sim lol
Autographs from Get Famous and paintings made by sims (I think, not sure about the paintings) do this in a way, but the jump in price happens once and it happens really fast, like one game day :/ I also want heirlooms
this comment needs more ❤️
Love this idea!
this would be so cool! i mean i always try to include an heirloom whenever i play legacy style, like my current household has a menorah the other parent got from her parents, but i do wish it was more official and had some gameplay
honestly TS4 does try to get you to leave the lot very often, sims calling to invite you to festivals, to hang out, to dates, etc...
the problem is that it's all so boring, and I don't wanna go through a loading screen just to see my sims stand around for hours 😭😭😭
And, ofc, sometimes you get a whim or it's part of their aspirations, but that's it. "Hey, you have to work out at a gym!"
OK, imma do that as fast as possible and then gtfo
The loading screen is the biggest barrier to leaving the lot 😭
I remember in TS3 if your sim didn’t leave the house for some time they would get the moodlet “going insane from staying inside” I remember it because it used to scare me a bit lmaoo but the fact that there’s literally nothing like that in the sims 4 except if you have the outdoors lifestyle from snowy escape is pretty interesting to me 😬
It would be fun to hold a charity gala at the museum
you can host charity benefit parties with get famous if you reach the top of the reputation system! i don’t know if you can have them at museums or not though? maybe you can
They could have a MET Gala! They could have a fashion history exhibit at a museum, and there's a theme every year, and when you get invited it takes you to CAS and gives you the theme and you make your outfit, and then maybe at the event there's a competition, and everybody votes on who has the best outfit, and you get fame and/or money if you win. And to be invited you have to be at least a 1 or 2 star celebrity.
How about when your sim makes a masterpiece, there is an option to give to the museum, and when you go there, you can see the piece with the name of the sim who made it.
I like the idea that a kid will go to the museum and come home with a Princess Cordelia (or other) obsession like the Parenthood bear phase or them asking the caregiver for advice. E.g “This kid will only wear pirate outfits and speak like a pirate for now”
Idk if it's related at all but the Princess Cordelia thing reminds me of Anne of Green Gables. Can you imagine having a cute redheaded sim kid and they're obsessed with princess Cordelia?! So cute! Hold on i gotta go build green gables now
Museums are only there so that my poor Kleptomaniac can steal expensive stuff-
imagine being able to work at a museum if you do archeology, to be able to interact and discover and make the items much more interesting with new lore you uncover
or a paranormal thing going on with it's own misteries that you can uncover, ghosts and maybe more vampire lore related to the werewolves idk man
I WANT MORE FANTASY BASICALLY, ITS GETTING TOO REALISTIC, I'M PLAYING A GAME TO ESCAPE REALITY GOD DAMMIT
they couldve even added in historical scenes from previous sims games. like use a mannequin, dress it like bella goth and kinda build a ufo above it. base game comes with fossils, add those in the museums? fish tanks? someone probably already built this on the gallery but theres ways they couldve done it better
Man they could have added museums to the get to work expansion and made like a museum curator track that could have been super cool
i would love not only a museum, but a revamp of night out (is that even a pack? or is it get together?) that included more options like museums, like spa day included nails
Get Together has clubs but I agree, a revamp for the usefulness of museums and a club to go see them.
I don't even remember the last time I visited a museum. These are some good ideas.
TBH in the Sims 3 museums were also kind of shit, except for the ones in the vacation worlds but that's because they had related quests. The only time I ever went to the ones in 3 were if I was trying to find a quick way to get a lot of objects for my photography skill.
Agreed! There's just never been much to do in sims museums so I'm surprised they decided to add them to the TS4 instead of like, a local pool.
I’ve always wanted something like an entry fee for the musuem, when you’re there you can like learn skills and look at art to gain an “insightful” skill (new trait Insightful)
This would make you better at understanding other sims OR make you better at the creative arts
So maybe Insightful for Sims and insightful for arts 2 traits 2 skills
So it’s worth going to the musuem because there you can learn the insightful skill quicker
We’d had toures as well for like 2 hour sim tour which limits it to 5 to 10 items
I'd rather keep the museum free by default but have a pack that includes an item that charges you to enter any venue that you want (lol similar to Sims 3 I think.) Then they could include a few themed builds for your game's library which come with relevant lot traits already applied and you could easily add the venue item to it if you own that pack (maybe a kit or a Stuff Pack since it's a game play mechanic.) And of course Simmers would build their own but if you don't have the pack that item isn't there.
Insightful trait IDK it sounds promising but might need more hammering out. I prefer keeping it one trait anyway; we have too many lackluster traits as is especially with the current core personality trait limitations. UNLESS it was a trait from your starting Aspiration; then the divergence would make more sense and add more to do so I like that better. :)
You rock and I really do believe that
I like the idea of interactive displays related to the history of The Sims franchise. I also think it would be cool if we could donate collectibles or art work (be nice if they added sculpting too) and then have them added as displays.
I remember the Into the Future expansion for Sims 3 had a movie screen showing Sims 2 I think it was and some objects on pedestals with some history. They could add a theater room with a screen and film projector where Sims could watch movies about past games or historical figures. I'm surprised there isn't a Princess Cordelia museum with all the objects they've put in over the years.
I absolutely adore art and think it would be such a cool feature for the Sims team to get permission from actual artists to include updates to the museums/art galleries where they hold events where real exhibits are featured like Van Goghs recent sunflower exhibit, other modern artists or even held contests where actual summers can have their real art featured in the museums and it provides in-game mood/skill boosts (if this is an actual thing already I’m sorry I haven’t played Sims 4 in ages) I understand some art is controversial and often has dark undertones which may not be suitable for The Sims but it would be cool to have ‘simmed’Versions like Bella Goth in the Birth of Venus or A cow plant version of the panel from the Sistine chapel (Adam,Eve, and the serpent)
The Dali Museum in Tampa FL has a whole outdoors section with cool fixtures that are great photo opportunities that could be similarly implemented in the sims museums that help with the influencer careers, even if it’s just wacky generic landscape with interesting modern fixtures to pose in front of. The buildings themselves could even be an artistic statement with how versatile the building options in the Sims 4 are. Lots of opportunities here.
Thank you, Professor Jesse. I did my MSc dissertation on museums so I appreciate my interests coming together like this.😭
I would LOVE if the collections were integrated with the museum! Similarly I want a graveyard LOT TYPE so I don’t have to make them parks. Just places to personalize FROM live mode?
I love when we get a Nerdbella episode. These deep dives always bring light to my heart.
YESSSS
Jesse speaking truth once more, museums SSSUCK, I just want giant dinosaur skeletons and actual HISTORY things please
When you complete the archaeology aspiration you get the ability to donate some items that you find in selvadorada to a museum. So they could definitely build on that, let you donate more, if you reach the top of any aspiration or creative skill or something. But also importantly to actually *see* that stuff then in a museum because as far as I can tell it just disappeared
I always turn on build mode from cheats in El Selvadorada and carefully repatriate all the relics from my sims’ inventory into displays at the cultural center (and then whenever the family moves they come back into the inventory). It’s a little ridiculous but it feels rude to use an ancient mask I found on vacation to decorate my bathroom
I love museums 🥺 I always take my sims on dates there and before we had wedding venues I usually got married there. I love editing them so they're like a fun little day out with easels set up, I hang up photography and microscope slides, and I like hanging up art the sims autonomously make. Add in a little dining area and it's so cute
That being said i do edit literally all my lots 😅
I don’t know how or why but this might be my favorite video of yours of all time. I’ve NEVER understood the point of the museums but it’s always so nice to hear someone else feel the same 😂
Part of the problem is that the base game museums aren't museums, they are art galleries! I did a bit of a drastic rebuild of the Oasis Springs one to make it in to a science museum (well, a museum of science and industry technically as there wasn't enough objects to make exhibits out of in the base game) and once I have a few expansions I might try to revamp the Willow Creek one in to being more of an art/events space.
A big problem for me with community venues is that I hate having to leave sims in the home lot because of how much the remote control options are. The 'tend to needs' choice does weird stuff, like having them play chess instead of going to sleep!
It'd be cool if they tweaked the autonomy on museum lots too so NPC sims aren't just rushing the painting easels and seemingly not much else? let them do that 'mindful walk' thing from SE around the building or find something to study...
definitely agree with you on the collectibles!! there are lots of different types of museums outside of art galleries and it'd be really nice to see that implemented somehow
Interactive exhibits, special local museum things in each neighborhood that aren't in any other museums, occasional exhibits, there's so many things they could do
I am right now playing the Sims and the art aspiration forced me to go to a Museum and for one side I realized that there has not been a Museum in an expansion since forever but also how much they suck. And then you upload this. Perfection.
I always replace Museums in my worlds. There's so much more I could do with the space.
Every time I go to a museum it's because a sim has a whim to go there and I just get disappointed all over again when I arrive and can't do anything. Even just having an NPC at a desk you have to buy a ticket from would improve it and make it feel more real. I'd be more inclined to make my own museums for that
I work in a historic house, and I love building them in the sims. We could have the opportunity to make our own with their own histories, like the Von Haunt Estate in Windenburg - that would be really cool. In a museum or historic house, perhaps if you were high enough in a skill - be it painting or archaeology or logic, or anything really - you could give talks/tours in museums to other sims. It could work a bit like mentoring… there is soo much potential to expand the heritage/arts world in the sims!!
This is THE feedback the Sims Team needed. 👌🏽 These boring museums are definitely a sad waste of potential. Loved your presentation, just THANK YOU for your videos. 😅
World Adventures for Sims 3 was my absolute favorite Sims thing ever. It fulfilled all my inner Indiana Jones fantasies. And inevitably, after traveling a lot, I would come home and set up a museum lot and put all my collectibles in there. I'd also use debug items and build/buy items to set up little diorama-type rooms to go along with all the displays full of bowls and pots.
I never went there for game play, really, I just enjoyed building it and filling it up with my stuff.
As a follow up video you should get lilsimsies museum off the gallery to show the potential.
With how many collectibles are in the Sims 4 I'm surprised that they didn't do museums like Animal Crossing or Stardew.
tbh i’ve been considering taking all mine out in my save but make one large one for like all of sims history. so i can still have a museum but one that has a lot instead of 4 depression lots.
I always make the garden area into a wedding location. All my Sims get married there.
What about a crime pack that brings back burglars and the museum is one of the targets for a heist
I literally only use the museums to go on dates bc they're mostly empty to my Sims won't be wrapped up in random group conversations while on a date
I want to be noticed by her so bad I’m from boro and it’s so class hearing “nowt” “pictures” “oway then”
Wouldn’t it be cool if you could turn your home into a museum? Like a legacy challenge family gen 10 could make the OG house into a museum and include important objects through the generations? Then as in the Get Together museum thing, put little things up where people can read about your legacy.
Ms Jessica. Can I request that you bring back your series where you make your sim live in a designated time period? Please 🙏🏻 🥺 those were very educational and fun at the same time!
Peter Plays It actually made a video about museums ! He gave ideas of how to improve them such as making a science or light museum. After watching it, I always add an art / music studio, a cafeteria or even a theatre with objects from the Movie hand out stuff pack ! Just to make actual use of the place...
As someone currently getting their MLIS, I think another career option would be archives or something where you can branch off to work in a museum or library
Jessie for President* of EA
*see "I'm actually the president of the company" meme.
I think what the sims team could have done is to give items a certain value that the game would make it recognise them as a museum items when put in a museum lot, and the game would send information about the item through the notifications. Or the ability to shift click items and get options to give them a description or a custom title so you could write your own lore
It would be cool to have like when you sell your own paintings to a collector if they happened to show up in museums. Like the world you're playing in and you sell your masterpieces, then they go to the museum in that world.
I work at a museum and I'd love to have better museums in the Sims! A huge part of museums in general is finding ways to get people to come and stay, so having activities on the lot would be very in-line with actual museums. Also, if there were ever some kind of museums related pack, special exhibits! Give me a rotation of temporary exhibits with unique collectables! Our museums have a tiny budget and we still manage to have cool freebies for every exhibit. The lot requirements really could use an update as well; they lean more into the "art museum" world than the "science," "history," or "natural history" spheres. 10 wall decor? Most of our wall decor is descriptions of the artifacts.
Hey! Your hips clicking MIGHT not be bad. I am a dancer and I have clicking hips and ankles. The reason I have it is because I am able to stretch outside the range my body was built for. So yours most likely is because you are more flexible than your skeleton (hope that makes sense) 😂
If the Sims wanted to design an expansion pack specifically for me, I'd like a kind of city break pack with multiple different subtypes of actually useful museums/attractions. Like not only a history museum, although absolutely yes a better history museum, but also a science museum with interactive experiments that boost your sims thinking/logic skills, an art gallery where your sims masterpieces could be displayed and they could take art classes, and a historical site/open air museum where the sims can walk through houses and interact with objects and talk to historical reenactment people (IMO the latter would suit sims history well. Let my sims 4 sims walk through the newbie's house and talk to Eliza Pancakes dressed as Betty). Little giftshops that the kids (and nerdy adults) desperately want to spend all their allowance at. Ways of incorporating your own invented history into the museums, especially for legacy players.
Other things that that could be good for Museums:
💬 Guest Lectures - Both as calender/inviteable events, and as the lecturer via microphones/podiums.
You could get calls about giving lectures, have a lecture event/party type, or just have the option on objects once you hit requirements.(I think Archaeologists have the last opton). Go listen to/give speech on a subject. Audience learns appropriate skill and can meets a sim who can mentor them in it, lecturer earns Charisma skill, cash and fame.
🏆 Art/Sculpture/Rare find Contests - Similar idea to the Finchwick Fair, but with art/crafts and collectibles like gems and fossils.
Get a prize for the most impressive entry. Must be found/made by submitting sim and can't submit same thing twice. Museum will ask if they can display the winner and it gets placed on the appropriate surface if you agree, earning you an amount of cash proportional to what you would make selling it.
🤩 Fame Provenance - Items owned by famous sims, or that came from long standing but bulldozed lots should have unique provenance from items simply purchased from the catalogue.
When a famous sim dies (after the mourning period) family/friends could be asked for items from that sim as museum donations, allowing you to submit items and add a description. These items could then appear on appropriate surfaces with info about who owned it when clicking and choosing "Read History" etc. (Items could be on loan for a weekly stipend like royalties, or sold outright to museum for a lump sum. Price would depend on fame of previous owner or longevity of previous lot).
With buildings, if they have stood for a set number of generations (say 2-3) you would get a pop up when trying to bulldoze asking if you would like to send any items to the Museum with provenance, prompting a way to pick items and write descriptions. Community lot items would be a donation, but owned lot items could be loaned or sold to the museum, as above.
🔳 Display Cases - More pedestals and display cases that have the option to write a description.
We got one of these with Jungle Adventure, but I'd love a set of basic ones in various styles for base game. They could be half-tile square, tileable/resizable and have adjustable height/width like columns. They could hold any size item, even if it overlaps the edge, and would automatically add extra/get taller to fit the size and shape of the displayed item.
Not sims related but when you said you’re working on social anxiety because you’re not leaving the house alone, I just wanted you to know you’re not alone in that 💕 Here’s to baby steps in ways that feel good.
I'm really hoping for customizable lots in the sims 4... Ppl say Sims are programmed to do certain things on certain lots but it would be cool if we could pick the activities like with get together
Pov : Sims 5 has museums but each exhibit is a micro transaction like kits ❤❤❤❤
In sims 2 your sims can view any object and then they react to it on whether or not they actually like that objects.
I think if TS4 added that element it could help out museums a ton
personally I would also like if museums actually had like. types of museums?? even the one that came with jungle adventure is essentially just an art museum! you HAVE to have artwork as your main exhibit no matter what kind of museum you're building! I would love natural history and science museums that aren't just "sims will look at art and not really touch anything else unless you make clubs"! I want sims to be interested in looking at rocks and fossils they'll otherwise ignore bc they aren't art on a wall or a statue! I want children's museums with little interactive stations child and maybe even toddler sims can use and learn things from!! I WANT DINOSAUR KID REPRESENTATION, LET ME HAVE DISPLAYS SPECIFICALLY FOR FOSSILS AND MAYBE SOME COMPLETE SKELETONS AS STATUES WE CAN PLACE IN THE MUSEUM!!
I would love unique statues or remakes of old sims objects that you can only get in museums or debug, with plaques with the descriptions of those objects and their lore.
3:04 omg a Hamilton reference!? I am screaming💜
*talks about public history for 2 seconds*
Me: "THAT'S WHAT I'M DOING! THAT'S MY SPECIAL INTEREST." For real though, public historians and the effort put into museums curation is amazing. I would love to see it included in the sims
Sims Team x Plumbella collab Museum refresh/overhaul when??
I feel like the only good museum is Van Haute estate in Windenbrug. There's lore tabelts and things to do like chess, piano, easels, garden, maze
You know what would improve the game immensely? The ability to walk while holding hands. You would go to the museum and look at art together, it would be amazing for storytelling and taking pictures and shit.
Paintings/items that can only be seen in the museum. That would be cool
A curator career would be so nice. they could build it similar to dine out/get to work where you get to decorate/design exhibits and manage staff and programs. Libraries and Museums game pack WHEN, basically
Hard agree on museums! When my artist Sims create masterpieces, I build a one tile room with just one wall, and save to my library. That Sim can still sell the painting on plopsy or from the easel (it can be returned to the easel). But now I have a copy in my library, so I can go to a museum lot, and place it on the wall. I have a whole wing of a museum filled with masterpieces painted by various Sims of mine. It really personalizes the space, and makes it more fun to visit. My goal is to collect one of each painting in the game, then start making a "paint from reference" gallery for each of the worlds. Btw, you look fabulous today and I want to steal your shirt! Thanks for your presentation, Jesse.
i need a museum update w a career having to do with museums (like museum guide, curator, etc)
Vlad's mansion would be perfect as a museum, obviously replacing some rooms with more Vampire content, and if you have Werewolves, Paranormal and maybe Realm of Magic DLC, you could add things from them too, and similar content, maybe expanding the building too.
Ok... I'm actually considering doing this now. 😂
I was so ready to accept that they just called Fountains "Ponds" in England 😂
Ok ok true true but let me raise you this - city living art museum. Enjoyable, nice aesthetic, lots of stuff to do. 10/10 experience
After only playing The Sims 2 for years, I FINALLY downloaded The Sims 4 a few days ago, and I was like “this is a museum??”🤨
It's not even like any sim made the art in the museums, they're just junk lots. My ideal would be a shop and museum based around collectable items and sim created art. There still isn't a reason for a creative space lot. So I just turn my museums into arcades so they have some reason to go "view 3 pieces of art at a museum"
I like making my own museum in the game. I call it the Collectables Museum. The first time I had this Idea I had a Sim go around the worlds to try to collect everything to put into the museum.
But then I got frustrated and impatient and just cheated the rest >_>
Anyways, So I have been putting my build in my Willow Creek Neighborhood to replace the not-museum that's there.
Although it does need to be updated right now, but I haven't been playing much of TS4 lately, so I haven't gotten to it. (I'm on a Modded Minecraft Kick right now).
Imagine a museum with a history of sims lore and older items and things that can cause wild events when you interact with them.
here me out. museum that’s a KIDS museum. like a kids activity center with experiments and shit to play with that’s STEM!!!
YES! =D
solid points here, like, the museums are so boring I pretty much just delete them and build something else on the lot. also, SO nervous about sims 5, it feels like it's been 8 years and sims 4 is just now reaching the level of sims 3 basegame as far as gameplay goes
I used to make the museums into wedding venues because they’re so pretty but completely useless
i like the museum in san myshuno because at least there are some activities there
I enjoy this look you got going on ! Love the hair !!
Kind of unrelated side not that I realize is never going to happen, but I think it would be so cool if they could have sims of historical eras (I am also team bring back medieval) like if they could have a "golden age of piracy" pack that incorporated Cordillias story.
I'm praying for the sims team to collab with you on a museum pack
I've replaced most of the Museums in my Sim world with various other (actually useful) community lots, like vet clinics and restaurants. It bums me out, because I don't want to deprive my Sims of culture, but I'd rather the space be taken up by something with purpose
The Sims 4: My First History Lesson Game Pack
i have a masters in museum studies. this video spoke to my soul
Actually, I am art curator on real life. So im Sims I making museum and art galleries that have topics etc. It's a lot o fun :) I thinking about sharing my work on the Internet. You inspirad me to do so :)
I WISH there was a way to somehow have classes at museums or art centers!! Maybe they could be events you can add to the calendar (like festivals?), maybe they could be events sims can plan and somehow market to townies, or maybe they could have them as part of a career? There could be specific activities or goals, maybe skills grow faster when you take them? Or maybe there's specific paintings or items you can make?
IDK I feel like a lot of the community lots lack depth. Where's the shit to do!? Why is this important!? What makes THIS spot unique!?
Alllllsssooo, I know the anxiety comes and goes and I'm sorry it's hard to leave your house atm :( I know it'll get better (these things usually do) but it's rough trying to figure out what will work this time, I hope you have a nice day today!
well, sims 4 museums suck, but I like to pretend they don't...the sims 4 is all aout pretending, isn't it...
recently I renovated Willow Creek museum (I made it science themed and placed there some stuff that my sims won't have at home, like rocket ships, and microscopes, and chemical tables, all of these are too big to keep them in my families' living rooms)
my sim was an archaeologist (self-registered, of course, because we don't have this career in jungle adventure pack) I also created the «co-workers» club, so they would all gather at the museum to work or do research or something
it was fun gameplay, but I'm so tired of having to do all of this myself because instead of enjoying and creating storyline and actually playing the game I have to spend time micromanaging anything and everything
Even a job! It could be the alternate archeologist job strain or something. Go be a museum curator. Needs charisma and painting or something.
We should be able to donate elements to the museum as a nod to **cough** other genres. Also; museums should have exclusive collectables like those coin press machines; reclusive exhibit items like dinosaur skeletons, fossils, Egyptian stuff, alien memorabilia, more stuff from Selvidarada's history, and old vehicles(just to rub salt in the wound); and finally the audio guides could be used to give the player little lore pop-ups if they select it.
i spent as much time in the museum in sims 4 as liz truss spent as pm of the uk
