BFFs will have a slower daily relationship decay, and will never fall out of friendship, even if they are furious with each other. Two Sims who are best friends long enough will develop the BFF relationship. The hobby lot can only be visited by Sims who have a membership, though they can bring other Sims with them.īFF is a new friendship level. The instructor for that hobby will give the Sim membership in the hobby club, which will grant them entry to the secret lot. Sims who have gained enough enthusiasm in a hobby will discover a secret hobby lot. Each Sim has a predestined hobby, and Sims will build enthusiasm for that hobby faster than for the others. There are 10 hobbies: Cuisine, Film and Literature, Games, Tinkering, Science, Arts and Crafts, Fitness, Nature, Sports, Music and Dance. Sims who do activities relevant to a particular hobby will gain enthusiasm in that hobby, and will be able to unlock more and more benefits as they become more enthusiastic in that hobby. The new simology includes hobby enthusiasm for each Sim. Sims can choose their secondary aspiration as an aspiration benefit. The secondary aspiration unlocks Sims' possibilities for new wants and fears that are outside their primary aspiration. For example, slower needs decay, making friends faster, smooth talking, higher salary, etc. Sims who spend their aspiration benefit points will be given special personal abilities and advantages. The higher a Sim's lifetime aspiration bar is, the more aspiration benefit points they can spend.


Sims who reach the maximum Lifetime Aspiration will be rewarded with Perma-platinum mood. The longer the daily aspiration bar is kept high, the more points the lifetime aspiration bar is awarded. This bar indicates how happy a Sim has been throughout their life. Sims now have a new bar between the daily aspiration bar and the Influence bar, the Lifetime Aspiration bar.
