Summary

ASims 4player has discovered a strange glitch in the game, which causes a recently-deceased Sim to offer condolences to their own living family members.The Sims 4takes players through the entire life cycle of a Sim, from birth until death, but it seems this one character was not ready to say goodbye.

WithThe Sims 4now approaching 10 years old, players have found a ton of interesting glitches in the game over the years. At this point, none of the glitches are particularly game-breaking, which makes it much easier to see the funny side of these bugs. OneSims 4bug even accused a Sim of being too poor to think, which is one of the more bizarre issues found in the game. Although Maxis continues to updateThe Sims 4with frequent new content to this day, it’s unlikely the developer will ever be able to patch out every issue with the game.

Redditor IrisCore15 shared the bizarre bug with theSims 4community online, showing their recently departed Sim texting the living family members to offer condolences. One user in the thread joked about the issue, calling the Sim “the ultimate people pleaser.” According to IrisCore15, the texts didn’t stop there, with the Sim also continuing to text to ask their grieving mother for dating advice. It’s not clear if these are base game ghosts or if they’re affected by an expansion or aSims 4mod, which could impact how ghosts behave in the game.

Sending Condolences From Beyond the Grave in The Sims 4

Ghosts inThe Sims 4have been a staple for a long time now, giving players a way to continue to interact with their favorite characters after they pass away. There are several intended interactions in this regard, reminding players of their previous Sims in a long-term save file. However, it’s extremely likely that a dead Sim continuing to text living relatives is in no way an intended feature from Maxis.

With the age ofThe Sims 4, it’s only natural that some players are looking to the future of the franchise. EA and Maxis have been relatively quiet about the possibility ofThe Sims 5, and it’s believed that the upcomingProject Renecould be the title that gamers have been waiting for. Recently,The Sims 5’s map leaked, although in cases like this, it’s important to remember that these things are subject to change. It remains to be seen when Maxis will revealThe Sims 5, although it’s safe to say that the general sentiment among the community is that it’s long overdue.
