So was reading through some of the Legacy Challenges available around the grid for The Sims 4 so I could play them on stream and I ran into one in particular, the 7 Deadly Sins Challenge from SimVanie (original challenge here), while it is a cute idea to have it be a wholesome style where every generation learns from their mistake/sin, for those that you know me… you know I ain’t about that. So let’s come up with another one where the Sins actually stay, there’s no redemption and they carry through the family’s life.
While I am taking a few things from the original challenge by SimVanie I am highly editing it to work with my playstyle and what I have in mind. For this to work of course the way in which the sins will be presented will be in accordance to the story and the rules, so let’s get into it:
Required
- The Sims 4 Base Game
- The Sims 4: Get Famous Expansion Pack
Optional
- Whicked Whims on streamer mode (Lust)
- SacrificialMods: Extreme Violence (Wrath)
- Wonderful Whims (for pregnancy and birth control)
- LittleMsSam’s “Miscarriage Chance & Abortion” (for last generation)
IMPORTANT: Do not force anything on your sim, the idea behind this challenge is letting the Sim lifepath develop as naturally as possible.
Recomendation: Have a saved copy of the first generation ready to go in case something happens, because this challenge depends a lot on RNGeesus and you should NOT be forcing anything on your sims.
Read them, love ’em.
1. The child that will carry on with the challenge cannot have the angelic trait. 2. 7th gen' child (8th Gen) cannot be modified AT ALL! 3. Some gens have a requiement for how many children they can/will have. Other than those mentioned, you are free to choose how many each will have. 4. You are allowed to play this challenge with the lifespan you prefer (the normal or long lifespan is recommended). 5. Money cheat is only allowed at the beginning of each gen, give your sim the last amount of money their parents had (money should NOT be an issue). 6. Read thoroughly the requirements for each sin, the aspirations and careers need to be completed 100% before your sim passes. 7. If one of your sims dies before completing the aspiration or career the challenge needs to restart. If you give this challenge a try please tag me on Twitter, Instagram, and/or Tumblr (@miwabunny).
