They always find some way to discreetly incorporate certain things.
for instance the bubble blower that was obviously a bong! lol
so just let your imagination do that for you. Drugs and teen s3x aren't gonna make the game all that much better.
the game will be addicting and amazing without that negative stuff.

Agreed
Very nice way to put it. (Although, I must say, I never noticed the bubble blower thing...I'll have to check that later.)

Interesting way of seeing it
That is very imaginative. Yes, imagination plays a big role in the Sims series.

That's kind of mean.
And you've not said anything about what this thread is actually about. Hey, I'm not a mod, and it isn't my job, but for the benefits of others, could you please try and post about the topic. Thank you. 
Okay, so anyway. I've said this before, I really very much doubt we're going to be seeing drugs in TS3. What's the need for it? It's not an everyday thing for most people, and besides, it will raise the rating. Anything that will raise the rating is a no-no. Drugs aren't neccessary, and The Sims isn't that sort of game. And they don't want to promote drugs in any way. Even if you think children won't take it in and whether they take drugs in the future is not affected by playing with Sims who take drugs in The Sims, you would be surprised. Young minds absorb lots and lots of things from all sorts of places and things. So no, I wouldn't be impressed if I saw drugs in the game. But that's just what I think.

yeah your kinda off topic..anyhow.
I think the bubble blower will return and that will be as close to what you want as it will get..

I don't think there should be drug addicts. But I think there should be something sims can take to lower inhibitions. There really should be alcohol in the game. To keep the T rating, maybe only young adults and adults could drink it. Even though that's totally unrealistic that teens wouldn't be able to, I'd rather have something than nothing.
Re: drugs - ChalyssaMuch - 06-04-2008 06:21 AM
you gotta remember little kids and preteens play this game though and even if alcohol was in the game for just adults and elders its promoting drinking..
Re: drugs - dejadejavu - 06-04-2008 06:24 AM
Eh, the rating says T. To me it doesn't matter if kids are playing it, they shouldn't be. They shouldn't be playing a game like the sims if they can't make decisions for themselves.
Plus our entire culture promotes drinking, the sims having it would not be bad. The game could also show the more negative aspects of drinking. If a sim drank too much, the next day they could feel miserable. Generally you can wake up a sim no matter what its energy level, but if a sim drank heavily their energy bar would have to be full before they woke up.
