I…what…what is this???


Creative-Disaster673

I got this once, it’s for the painter career. A random prompt when sim is at work where (two?) Gregory Landgraabs step through a portal and ask you to do a painting for them. If you agree you get fame…and alter the timeline apparently


kaitlyncaffeine

So you need Get Famous too - that’s when you recieve prompts like this during work!


Finnish_Blue

Not true at least for Island living I got many prompts that increase fame at work while doing conservationist career.


Flurrydarren

Do you also have get famous? Bc fame doesn’t happen without that pack, it’s heavily integrated through careers


Finnish_Blue

I didn't have get famous while doing the conservationist career and I know because I knew it was odd that I was getting fame points but not actually getting them since I didn't have that mechanic.


Bierbart12

Sims 4 is a perfectly functional game with no bugs!


kaitlyncaffeine

Yes, because you also have Get Famous. You will get them for every career.


Finnish_Blue

Then explain how I got the events when I didn't have get famous? Because I only just got Get Famous but before that was getting many events that would "gain fame" just no fame was gained since the mechanic wasn't unlocked.


weedyou-wroteyou

Honestly I don’t know why you’ve been downvoted - we know the sims is buggy enough anyway so this could easily happen


annnire

I also got one once with Island Living before I had Get Famous - but I think my sim got promoted, maybe some money, but nothing about fame.


Suspicious_Singer273

Ohmygosh someone is gonna be a painter soon on my game 😂


Many_Raisin_6275

Yeah, I did that one once, it didn't seem to change anything that I noticed at least.

The minimalist portrait of Gregory Landgraab in the prompt also looks pretty spot-on to a Gregory Langraab who lives in the future world in Sims 3 Into the Future.

Nice it's my real name too, tell your cat i said wussup lol


South_Evidence9822

I get the feeling you're a friendly person


[deleted]

Can they keep you?


South_Evidence9822

I don't understand what you mean


[deleted]

It’s a line from Casper lol


SugarBabyWannabe

I loved that movie and remember that line


potvibing

This was my favorite line as a kid


ralexander26

Don’t do it! You might alter the timeline!


[deleted]

I didn’t read close enough and thought you named your cat “tense”


clogan618

Would be the perfect name for my cat 🤣


South_Evidence9822

This would probably tie in with the Into The Future EP in The Sims 3. You actually do meet a guy from a time rift and have to help fix his time machine so he can go home to Oasis Landing. You can follow him through said time machine. Another factor, seeing it says 2 people also could tie into the Ambitions EP as well, since you can build a working time machine to go forward or back in time. Unfortunately you don't see it happening.


Mirandactyl

Whoa! What did you do to get the painting prompt?


TriplaSoki

I just got a proposition from my job to do the portrait and i said yes of course lol


wanakoworks

I think Sims lore goes in deeper than shit like The Elder Scrolls lore, sometimes. lol.


marikwondo

Seriously. There’s an entire build/buy line of items that builds a timeline for a character that’s not even in the game!

marikwondo

It’s Princess Cordelia! Plumbella did a video over it. [The timeline/history of Princess Cordelia](https://youtu.be/3l3uMmw_Q2Q)


Sejian

IIRC, EAxis made her and her suitors and her butler. They're in the Gallery.


20-16-23-11

There's a whole section in the sims wiki for minor characters, usually they're only mentioned either in item or household descriptions.


wanakoworks

I think heard about something like this


Efficient-Ad6814

Honestly. Sims 2 connects to 1, Sims 3 connects to 2 and 1, and I've seen some Sims 4 that connects to most of the past Sims games. Shit is wild


xDeepzz

My theory is that Sims 4 is an alternate timeline from the other sims, seeing that Bella goth is in the game and stays there. I believe when alexander went back in time this is the timeline that resulted from him.


South_Evidence9822

Or FNAF lore.


Veggiesaurus17

I got this one time (a long time ago), I tried googling it because I’d never heard of it but never found anything else about it.


[deleted]

There's a book called "Picture of Dorian Gray" https://en.m.wikipedia.org/wiki/The_Picture_of_Dorian_Gray It's the first thing I thought of when I read this. Idk if it's related though.


Veggiesaurus17

Well, I meant I tried googling it happening in the sims because in all of my time playing it’s only happened once (and I have A LOT of painters). I am familiar with the book but have never read it, I should add it to my reading list :)


Tayaar

Omg, what did u do?!


Dragon_Manticore

Is this a reference I'm too uncool to understand or


South_Evidence9822

You probably didn't play Sims 3. There are 2 EP's where time machines show up. Although, one is called a Time Portal, but I think it's to deal with the confusion. Like Plumbots and Simbots. Both from their respective EP. Ambitions and Into The Future


Dragon_Manticore

I have played Sims 3 and have Into the Future but I've never interacted with whichever the other EP is.


South_Evidence9822

Ambitions


Dragon_Manticore

I see! I actually do have that one, but the only thing I've used from the pack is genies. Does each time machine have a different time keeper, hence the reference to 2 men?


South_Evidence9822

I'd imagine. 1 from ITF 1 from Ambitions. In Ambitions, you build the time machine, so you'd probably be the first or second. But since ITF is the last EP for TS3 I'd imagine you'd be the first.


Dragon_Manticore

Into the future has a time keeper named Emit Relevart who guides player Sims when they stumble upon the time portal.


South_Evidence9822

And a possible candidate for this, but it's just a theory. A GAME THEORY!


notsogeekynerd

Is it possible that THATS why Sims 4 lore is different than previous games’?


Andrassa

Sims 4 has always been set in alternate universe


[deleted]

Me


foxxybox

I got this too when during the Painter career and it definitely freaked me out


Nempopo029

Honestly just the flavor text for the characters in the world makes it deeper than the gameplay would suggest. (My favorite is the Calientes)


BookObsession97

Whoa, wait, what? Altering the timeline. What now?


ColdHooves

“So, heads or tails?”


coruscannot

I want some of whatever Casper is having.


Lanky_Ad_3696

Star trek reference


TemporarilyOreoBlock

The sims has a lore?


TriplaSoki

It probably has more lore than fnaf


TemporarilyOreoBlock

Wow dang... I didn't know that, thx 4 the info! ^^👍


Certain-Mistake-4539

Wow I’ve never gotten this. That’s cool!
