Add this to my list of "thought it was a short idea but turned out to be very long"

I could have gone on about the creative skill and the ways to optimize paintings but tbh, I could go on forever on ways to gain skills faster as a whole so just remember this video is about painting. I was tempted to add sketching to the list but maybe in the future I revisit sketching...or not idk

Anyways, what is your favorite iteration of painting? Mine?

Sims 1 is the foundation as always and it did fall shorter than usual this time imo. I thought there were way more paintings for some reason but it is just the 4. So yeah, not impressed but its not like I expect a lot from Sims 1 with most details

Sims 2 also fell a little short for me but I did like how free time added a little more into it. I didnt touch on the business side of things with this one but its a cool side of any skill if you have open for business

Sims 3 was when it really started feeling more interesting for me, just the fact that sims can paint anything in the world by taking a picture for reference feels more involved than usual. I also love the variety in paintings

Sims 4 is the superior one if we talk about styles of painting alone, they were so many paintings that there was no way I could fit them all for a picture even if I focused on one size. As a skill, it also feels well done cause you dont gain it super fast (unless youre actively trying to) and the burnout feels very real. I think it might be my favorite with Sims 3 going right behind it. I didnt appreciate them not letting children paint though, that is a weird move.

But that is just my opinion, let me know yours and I will see you on the next one. I was thinking on revisiting ghosts but Ill wait for the life and death expansion, so I am considering ghost hunting but we will see
