    As a rimworld player I fear sims players. Rimworld has a certain degree of violence inherent to it, it’s part of the game. The Sims though? Particularly unmodified Sims? It inspires creativity. Horrifying, horrifing, creativity.

      Part of rimworld is about the horrible shit you are forced to do. The sims players do all of this BY CHOICE

        Forced is a bit of a cop out. Nobody is forced to take a masochist pawn, cut off their arms and legs, and rig them up with a joywire and psychic harmonizer. And nobody ever made hundreds of human skin hats out of necessity.

        Though I have on one occasion initiated a nuclear meltdown due to a particularly nasty infestation that caused a full evacuation. The full cataphract armored kill team I sent to reclaim the base got trashed but one managed to limp to the reactor and shut off the cooling.

        Oh and the one time I stored an antigrain warhead next to something electrical and a zzt blew the whole base to hell but that wasn’t on purpose.
