Meaningful Stories has a release date! (Patreon)

Meaningful Stories for The Sims 4 will be available for everyone on Thursday 7th February.

Meaningful Stories is a mod pack that redesigns the moods and emotions system of The Sims 4. This collection of changes big and small aims to allow your sims to feel more human, to make the events in their lives feel more meaningful, and to turn managing their lives into a more interesting challenge.

Your sim might get into a depressive rut for days that takes planning and effort and some help from their friends to overcome. Or your sim's creative nature might be filling them with inspiration when they really ought to be focused instead, so you send them to work on their novel to get the ideas out of their head. But then something special happens, like a new friend, a promotion, or a first kiss, and they feel truly happy for once, in a way they never have before.

From that date, there will be two versions of the mod available - a public version and a preview version. Patrons will continue to play and test upcoming features with the preview version, at a new download link that will outline the differences between the two versions. Features will move from the preview version to the public version when I am happy with them and consider them finished.

There's currently a poll happening for my +3 inspired patrons where they are voting on which of the other upcoming features they find most exciting, which will guide where I put my efforts into next.
