The other big addition in The Sims 4 is a new set of game controls, which empowers a player to choose which life changes their nearby Sims may or may not have. Neighborhood stories can be configured in the following ways:

  • Independent Configurations: Players can choose to enable or disable all kinds of life changes and even disable all Neighborhood Stories in specific families.
  • Default: Neighborhood Stories can be enabled for Other Families and disabled for My Families.
  • Specific Configurations for Each Family: Each family can have its own configuration, allowing Simmers to customize the life changes that make sense for that family’s storyline.
  • Global Enable or Disable Settings: Neighborhood Stories can also be completely disabled in Game Options.

To keep track of all changes, players can check any recent Neighborhood Stories interaction through any inbox. Finally, the Sim can visit nearby Sims to see their life changes in action. For more information on The Sims 4, we refer you to the official site.
