Gamers, what motivates you to play a game like "The Sims"?

@scooogy Not really. I'm not going to live in houses like these ever, and they're also not really my style. I just make them because I like the process.

@SW-User Is it something like being responsible for making plans?

@scooogy Nope. I just enjoy building. That's it. It ain't that deep, lol.

@PiecingBabyFaceTogether you mean you let the people in that game live situations which you craved for yourself to have?

@scooogy Yes. Same with Euro truck simulator 2.

@scooogy 🤷‍♀️ I'm really interested in a lot of things, and I have almost an obsession with becoming self sufficent, so I love the idea of learning skills so I don't have to hire/depend on other people (like basic repairs, plumbing, whatever) but I'm also the type that loves to go down the rabit hole and learn everything about a subject. Become an expert. It's not realistic to do that for everything that I really want to.

@boklenholley7 as an engineer, I often try to rely on things already existing.

@scooogy and that's a bit more rational. I just want to it all myself xD

@poisonouscupcake for reasons of bad experiences?

@scooogy just a bad life tbh

@CrustyDDingus I think in "The Sims 2" it was possible to just let the people in there do what they liked, like randomly.
