WA Favorite Expansion Pack Ever
I have really enjoyed playing the World Adventures expansion. This is my favorite expansion pack ever (even with the minor bugs I have from the latest patch......knew it was causing problems but couldn't stand it unless I patched my game). I have played Sims 1 & 2 before and bought every expansion back for both of them. I have enjoyed playing adventure and role playing games (Grim Fandango, Siberia 1 & 2, The Longest Journey, Morrowind, Oblivion, KOTOR 1 & 2) for many years. This expansion adds both the adventure and role playing aspects to the Sims 3, which I really am enjoying. And it doesn't scare me like many of the role playing games do. :)
Tom Harper completed all the China adventures and was adventuring in France when I installed the latest patch. France had no custom content so it worked fine but Tom's home base was in Riverview, and he can't go home. So I created a new adventurer named after me with traits that I would like to have, but don't. She's brave (I'm a big coward), athletic (I'm lazy), adventuresome (maybe I am that a very little bit), a genius (I'm not one of those either), and a photographer (I can take some okay pictures but don't get the camera out very often). She does sing very badly though, but not quite as bad as I do.
I was playing the other night and Kathy (aforementioned adventurer) was exploring a tomb. I saved my game and went to the kitchen to get a baked potato buttered up and ready to eat. I brought my baked potato backed to the computer and adventurer Kathy decided she was hungry. Out of everything available to her to eat in her inventory, she chose a potato. :) A few minutes later one of my dogs, Ruby, came into my office and laid down behind me to nap. Adventurer Kathy was excavating a rubble pile and the 2nd thing she found was a ruby. Pretty funny coincidences for me. :lol:
My China vacation house is completed and has been 1st tested by Tom, now being tested by Kathy. Hopefully I'll get it ready to upload to TSR soon.
