**Greetings, Sims fans,**
How you doin'? My, you look nice today! Did you lose weight? And your
eyes - I never noticed how beautiful they are! Perhaps we could retire
to some place quiet and talk about it some more...
Spring, the traditional time of year for romance, is quickly drawing to
a close, but we predict that it's going to be the tail end of summer
when things really start to heat up. Specifically, we think that
beginning September 17th, romance will blossom across the globe, when
The Sims 2 fans everywhere tear the shrink-wrap off their new copies of
The Sims 2, and fire up some of the brand new Romance Sims found in The
Sims 2 to see what makes them tick.
And just what is a Romance Sim, exactly? As you hopefully know by now,
Sims in The Sims 2 are driven by their Aspirations, just like people in
real-life. Romance Sims know what they want, and aren't afraid to let
you go after it for them. For a Romance Sim, there is no sweeter thrill
than the adulation of a new love interest. In short, they are
individuals who pursue romantic gratification with an
almost single-minded zeal. Perhaps you've encountered a few real-world
equivalents? If you've ever known someone who was more likely to be
found canoodling with a new "friend" in the coat-room of a party than
hanging out with his buddies, then you've met a Romance Sim.
If you create a Romance Sim in The Sims 2, you'd better be ready
to build Charisma by polishing your pick-up lines in the mirror. And we
hope you've got some money - The Aspirations of Romance Sims
often dictate the kinds of items they want to own, and they ain't
cheap! You'll need a fabulous hot-tub for those long, sensuous soaks,
a suspiciously comfy sofa for, ahem, entertaining...well, you get the
idea.
It's not all roses and candles for these Sims, either. For every Want
there's a Fear, you know...getting turned down for a smooch can knock
a Romance Sim right down, and you should be prepared to spend some time
at the gym: just a little unwanted flab can totally sap the confidence
out of a Romance Sim. Romance Sims are notoriously vain people with
spun-sugar egos.
A tried and true Romance Sim wants to find love as much as possible, and
damn the consequences! Romance Sims played to the peak of perfection
gain a palpable confidence that shows in their strut, knows all the
slick moves, and attracts envious stares from their Sim peers.
If you don't believe me, then you should check out this movie, and see a
real Romance Sim in action:

ZitatAlles anzeigenDie News:
Wie jede Woche trudelte heute wieder eine Mail von Lucy Bradshaw ein.
Heute beschreibt sie eine der fünf Sehnsüchte die die Sims haben werden genauer: Die Romantik.
Für Sims die diese Sehnsucht gepackt hat, gibt es nichts besseres als das umgarnen einer evt. neuen Liebe. Sie zieht hierbei einen Vergleich mit Leuten die sich auf einer Party lieber der neuen Liebe als seinen Kumpels widmen.
Um ein perfekter Romantiker zu werden, gehört aber auch einiges. Als besonders wichtige Eigenschaft hebt sie das Charisma hervor, das kräftig vor dem Spiegel trainiert werden muß. Auch ein bischen Geld wäre für einen Romantiker nicht schlecht.
Zudem beschreibt sie wie sich eine weitere Sehnsucht auf eine/n solche/n Loverboy/Girl auswirken kann: Die Angst z. B. die Abweisung.
Gleich noch dazu mitgeschickt hat Lucy ein passendes Video, welches mit dem neuen Movie Maker Tool aufgezeichnet wurde. Den Download findet ihr hier
