Wishes/Wants or Whims a.k.a What a Sim really wants

Hello everyone, as the title of the post already tells you this week I want to talk about Wants/Wishes and whims in the Sims.

What are Wants/Wishes?

Let's start with Wants, as on PC Wants where introduced in The Sims 2 on Console. Like in The Sims 4 wants are basically the same as whims. Both of them are mostly defined by a Sims personality, traits, skills and relationships The only difference between wants and whims is that with wants also came fears which had a negative impact on your Sim. In The Sims 2 The Sims 2 pets each Sim had different wants that you could fulfill to help their Sims live a happy life. As a reward for fulfilling a want the Sim earned Aspiration Points. Those Aspiration points worked like a kind of currency. Because some items were only available once your Sim had reached a specific amount of aspiration points. Once the want was fulfilled it got re-rolled by a new one. So basically the same mechanic as in later Sims games. If you fulfilled a fear by accident or on purpose your Sim lost a specific amount of aspiration points.

Here you can see an example of the wants and fears panel from The Sims 2

Let's move on to The Sims 3/ The Sims 3 pets.

In The Sims 3 wants were replaced by wishes. Like I mentioned before the concept of re-rolling a fulfilled want/fear stayed the same. But instead of Aspiration points your Sim gained Lifetime happiness points which allowed you to buy traits like Steelbladder. (This Trait lowers the decay of the Sims bladder motive. So the Sim don't have to use the toilet as much as other Sims.) Instead of Fears the Sim would get negative a moodlet whenever something bad would happen to them. This would cause that the Sim isn't absolutely happy. However if you did not liked a wish he could easily cancel it and let a new re-rolled pop up. In Sims 2 this wasn't possible therefore you could call the Sims psychologist to re-roll all wants and fears.

Here you can see the Wish panel

And lastly The Sims 4

The Sims 4 has Whims instead of Wants and wishes. In The Sims 4 every Sim has 3 Whim Slots. For each fulfilled Whim the Sim gains satisfaction Points which allow you to buy potions and traits from the reward store. Whims are mostly the same as wants and wishes with one exception and this exception is called emotion. As you may or may not know in The Sims 4 we got introduced to the Emotion System. And those emotions have also an impact on your Sims Whims.

Here's an example of the whims panel

To wrap up this weeks post I will give you my personal opinion on what I would like to see in the next Sims Game.

I personally would like to see the Wants and Fears coming back to The Sims. Simply because they don't feel as repetitive as the whims. Also the Wants have a bigger variety So I personally think that Wants and Fears are more fitting than Wishes and Whims.

As always I'll post the link to the sources I've used down below.

I hope you enjoyed the Post. If you did please like it, reblog it or comment on it and let me know your opinion.

Until then I hope you will have a great week and remember to always keep Simming

Sims 3 had so many awesome things; storylines, color wheels, cars. But it also had this horrible blonde hair.
