Late Again :/

Hey everyone, unfortunately Sea of Moons, Guardian's Key, Cronus I is going to be late. Not next week late, just not today late. The update is written and the pictures are taken, finally, I just have to put the two together. So, within the next couple of days late.

But I will leave you with this taste of the next part in Adrostos' quest to find the Casque.

Pose Box Update

I've just added a number of poses to sit, stand, lay, couple, and kneel catalogs.

Main Catalog Page

Thank you S.B. and Gayl, very much appreciated. :D

I don't usually do reviews, but...

As a rule, I prefer Lachesis Presents to allow TS3 to speak for itself, but the further into the game I've gotten over the past five days, the more I've realized this is not your typical Sims game. In fact, with very few changes, The Adventure Company could package it up and sell it.

Saying that EA has misrepresented this game might be a bit harsh, but I don't think they've made it clear that it's not a vacation spot for your Sims. At least it hasn't been anything like I expected when I bought it. Granted, my reading at the site had been cursory at best, but I don't like to learn a lot ahead of time. I want to play the game and figure it out. Granted, I hadn't expected Bon Voyage, but I most certainly hadn't been expecting a Broken Sword game either.

Anyway, check out my review here: World Adventures - Bon Voyage it Ain't if you're in the least interested in this expansion pack.

I'm now returning to Egypt, I left Galen in the middle of the Great Pyramid...

Take care,
Lachesis

MIA

On vacation, so to speak.

If I don't get back, everyone in the US have a good Thanksgiving!

Take care,

Sims 3 Update - Finally

Well no surprise, I rushed out last night and bought World Adventures. It took me forever to get it installed because I didn't update the base game figuring the updates would be in with the DVD - nope, so if you haven't, update your base game before you install, it'll help save time. Also, I uninstalled Delphy's install hack - the only hack I have - and pulled out the folder with the small handful of non-EA cc. I had no problems, but I played without putting the stuff back, so Yuri, Leta and Aiden have EA skin and not my default replacement skin. *shudder*

Anyway, I've put Yuri's Journal up at Lachesis' Presents. Just a quick walk through of one of the tombs to give you an idea. It is a bit of a spoiler for the tomb located behind the base camp, so if you're not interested in a spoiler post, you might want to avoid it. :)

My game playing life started with Myst and Tomb Raider. From there, I've played a ton of Adventure Company games, all but two of the Tomb Raiders, Prince of Persia and every Myst game released. So, this EP is pretty much up my alley, even if it is very simple compared to the above. I did enjoy walking Yuri through the tomb. Unless there's a lot of randomness to this, however, I can see it getting to be the same old same old quickly. Frankly, I found Bon Voyage to have much more enjoyable vacation spots, but in all fairness, I did only go to Egypt for three days. I'll see as I get farther along.

Take care,
Lachesis
