Castaway
June 20th, 2008

My husband got me Sims Castaway Stories as an early birthday gift. I've had fun with it so far. The game play is a little simplistic (it's almost like they hold your hand the entire game and show you the answers to the puzzles without even letting you try it out yourself first), but I really enjoy some aspects of the game. I like the new job system. Your character can be a hunter, gatherer or crafter, and instead of working for simoleons (§) they are working for resources and food. I like that you can use some CC (custom creations) in the game, such as skins, make-up, hair, and some clothes. Also, your Sim can adopt an orangutan. Very funny!
But, my favorite part of the game? The objects, plants and clothes! OMG, I want them for my main Sims 2 game so badly! I so wish EA would offer a Castaway Stuff Pack or something. I would almost kill to get it. :XO: I think a few of the pieces might have made it into Bon Voyage, but not nearly enough. I want everything! *sigh…* 😥
Is There Anybody Out There?

*pokes site with a stick* Are you still alive? 😯
Yeah, I bet you're thinking the same thing. But, I haven't let the site die. I'm not done telling my stories yet! Real life has just gotten me sidetracked as well as the fact that I have too many other hobbies that take up time that I could be writing.
But, you don't want to hear excuses, right? You probably want to know when the next chapter will be coming out. As to that, you know how I hate to announce concrete deadlines, so I'll just avoid a direct answer and say instead "it'll be out when it's out." *hears collective groans*
No, seriously. It is definitely written, I just have to take pictures for it. I'm also having trouble figuring out what Edmond should wear. Nothing seems to be working for him. (And, no, I won't have him run around naked…although…No! Don't even go there, mind. haha) I'm looking for something suitablely gothy.
Anyway, I do have a little surprise for those of you who love Tahlvin (and don't think my dolls are creepy):
The rest of the photo shoot can be seen here. I'm so excited to have him finally completed!
So, don't give up on me yet, guys! I'll talk to you again soon.
