While The Sims 4 community may be spread across multiple sites, one platform where they remain extremely active are on the official EA forums. But for those of you who don’t peruse it regularly it can be a doozy on where to start, fortunately EA regularly debut Friday Highlights which show off top community content from the last week!
Now, the main headliners are of course the addition of three new kits to The Sims 4, a new patch and a Q&A hosted on the official Discord. But there’s plenty more beyond that to dig into, for example…
- Patriarchal and faces, Matriarchal in Nature is one top story from user @potatomom that gets a shoutout. Focusing on the three brothers Rian, Nero and Saxan and their day-to-day life, as well as the many traits they took from their mother.
- Build of the Week went to a Mermaid House – that’s a house inhabited by mermaids, not one underwater – built entirely on stilts and produced by user @RheaFallout who produced the entire impressive build without the use of cheats or mods!
Aside from offering a great overview of what’s been going on in the forums, these topics also provide plenty of inspiration for new buildings and set-ups for your next Sims community. But the above is only a small sampling! So you’ll want to check in on the forum highlights to find interactive stories and ongoing epic family sagas set in the Sims 4 and 3.
Meanwhile, if you fancy emulating some of said stories, you may want to get started by modding to build out your Sims’ available catalogue of furniture, clothes and more.
