Anyone else get wee bit sad when a villager dies?

Ah, yes, my first Golden Child, a long, long time ago.

Brit, I don't really like the GC, haha. I got tired of the parties!!

I think everybody feels a bit sad when a villager dies.

I got pretty sad when my first villager of VV1 died - even remember his face and clothes and his name - Joaquim.

Aww... I got sad when I had to delete my game... I'm lucky my mom saved backup files!!! We have to get a new computer....

There was this one villager I had who I devoted all my time to. I meant to pause the game but when I came back she was dead. I was so mad.

I think that's pretty obyious that one will feel sad when a highly-skilled villager dies.Or if likes running.
OR IF HE/SHE MASTERED THE 5 SKILLS!!!

Yeah, I got a little sad when my first villager died as well.She was getting a little advanced in years and I was in the process of moving to a new place. I forgot to slow the game down and took more time moving things than I thought. By the time I got back home it was too late. I remember her too. Her name was Gzifa, she had red hair and wore a purple dress. She was only 56 because I hadn't researched all the techs yet. I said out loud (to no one in particular) Poor Gzifa, you worked so hard! Unfortunately her first daughter was lazy and I couldn't wait until she died :P

Sometimes I actually wish they would "slip away"... the really stubborn and slow ones, so I can have room for more helpful villagers.

Yes, I find myself saying to some of the troublesome ones 'aww, you're only 50'? How much longer do I have to put up with your lazy behind? Hehehehe.

I accidently delted my game once. I acutally cried. I was really far into the game.

I always feel like when the first generation of my new game dies its like turning over a new leaf... I also usually do something special for all the villagers who were the first, make the others put flowers on their graves.

I usually only get sad when my favorites die, but the first few are always hard.

I do that, too.

Also, I think that when a villager dies and a new one is born with the same name, that's because the villagers believe in reincarnation and the dead person has come back to life. When someone is born with the same name as someone still living, I stick the morpheme "-aru" after their name which means "named after" or "named in honor of" in my personal language and sounds sufficiently Isolish.

Yes I do...

Since when is 56 elderly!!! Guess I just gave too much away. I have only recently discovered these games after I retired. Am having a great time. VV is my first in this kind of genre. Love it. Somewhere I have packed the first SIMS.

Your villagers probably haven't progressed far enough yet.
