OMG, i cant believe im this upset.. i will never see Vegas or Balone, anymore..

Oh Sweetie, I cried when my first family passed too! It's hard to believe you can get so attached to those little pixels. It does get easier though as you get into the generations. I just wish that Arthur had made it so that our older peeps could live longer and that the new generation could move in and take care of them when they're aged. It would have been a bit more enjoyable with "living" grandparents in the game. Big hugs!

I AGREE !!!

I agree. Lewanda. However, I imagine technical problems would be too much. For instance, where would the grandparent/s sleep? Also, I suspect that there's a good reason for the limitation of "only" six children, apart from the obvious one of the number of available beds. The VF peeps are much more complicated than those in the VV games, and it's likely that the AI can only comfortably handle a total of eight at once.

On my first family, when the husband passed away, I was so sad that I had to go to a new generation. I almost cried (my husband was sitting behind me thinking I was a bit nutty) I think as time goes on, each generation it gets easier to accept when someone passes away. My second family, just yesterday, the wife passed away leaving her husband and 15 year old son in the house. the kid went to college a few years before dad passed away, so he was alone in the house when he died. That was sad to see

nascar, we're with you. I remember thinking about permanently pausing my first game because I didn't want my peeps to pass. As others have said, you do get used to it after a bit, but the first family to lose a loved one really hits you hard.

You might want to look here . It might make you feel better.

I take screenshots of my family members doing silly things and when I miss them I go through the pictures and remember they had a great virtual life. The first one is always really hard though. I definitely cried when it happened to me.

Hi Arnie! Arthur could made it so we could purchase an addition tp accomodate living grandparents. It wouldn't added something nice to the game.

Yes the first family was hard to get over when they passed away and the male peep was alone and I cried. I got over that and when they die in each gen I got use to it as I look forward to the next marriage and the children growing up. on 6th gen now.

I know they're "only pixels", but that sure doesn't keep me from getting attached to my peeps. I think the worst moment for me was when the husband/father died in one of my families, and then shortly afterwards, I saw the three-year-old running around, "looking for daddy". Nearly broke my heart.
