Some players love it, while others try their best to make the game go super realistic.
I think maintaining the Maxis/Sim “culture” is charming and nostalgic, since goes back several games. Like llamas, Freezer Bunnies, gnomes, and the language of Simlish itself.
While the spoken words are fairly hard to make sense of, the written text actually can be deciphered – and it’s easy to translate words from English.
The look of Simlish blends into the game perfectly, as you’d expect.
And the way this creator applied Simlish to the t-shirt logos is really cool.
They’re still recognizable too, like MTV and NASA – just with that added bit of fun.
As a huge fan of Custom Content, I’ve always considered Simlish stuff as Maxis Match, while anything with an actual real-world language felt more Alpha and hyper-realistic.
EA’s game developers went and threw my whole philosophy out the window by releasing tees with English text.
The message is so important I can understand why they wanted to keep it so players actually know what it says.
But most people probably know the story behind the patch that brought these shirts, and that it was connected to the It Gets Better Project, a nonprofit that supports LGBTQ youths.
That support can continue in TS4 without sacrificing your aesthetic.
Because these shirts offer exactly the same stuff, and the message remains – only Menaceman44 replaced the English lettering with Simlish.
Creators get inspiration from the most amazing places.
For example, this shirt is separated from a uniform from the Athletic career path, and has been recolored with all sorts of new swatches.
I’ve played the same two careers since I got this game. So it’s basically brand new to me, and probably to you as well unless you’re really into athletic Sims.
This slightly oversized tee is perfect for big graphics. And these designs are very “Sims” in a way that’s hard to describe.
Why does a pile of trash wearing sunglasses remind me so much of good times in The Sims 4?
No idea, but it’ll probably have the same effect on you!
Same with the alien baby, and the gravestone with the Simoleon sign on it.
6. Men’s Simlish Graphic Tees: Travel Edition (Discover University Required)
Sure, the logistics can be super chaotic and stressful – both in The Sims and in real life.
But once you’ve got work and school commitments figured out, your luggage is taken care of, and all flights or cabs have been on time, what’s not to love?
Going on trips has been such a fun bit of gameplay in The Sims for a long time.
From Bon Voyage to World Adventures, then Outdoor Retreat, and finally the patch that made it possible for players to send their Sims to vacations in any world…
And what’s the best part of any vacation?
The souvenir t -shirt, of course!
These 10 custom swatches include scenic images for several of the available worlds, including the one that started it all, Granite Falls.
But every world can be a destination for Sims that don’t live there. So even Oasis Springs and Windenburg are here.
You’ve heard of eggs over easy, now get ready for eggs over boobs!
Yeah, I just had to say it.
This CC set includes a tee with egg graphics that’ll be in just the right spot on any Sim’s chest to be hilarious. Some of the best shirts are the novelty ones that’ll always make your Sim (and anyone that sees them) smile.
If that doesn’t already have you eager to download, then I’ll mention that the other 9 swatches are pretty awesome too.
They also come in English and Simlish versions.
Note: these are just for the ladies and they come with a feminine cut that’ll naturally accentuate your Sim’s shape.
Interests that used to be “nerdy” like science, superheroes, and Star Wars, are now very mainstream and widely beloved. So I guess the majority of the world’s just geeks now.
Well these custom shirts have great geek-y patterns and logos for all of the above (and more).
The sleeves are stylishly rolled up a bit, for a slight change of pace from most tees that are available to Sims.
They’re tuckable as well, so you can create some really cute outfits with skinny jeans or skirts!
It’s always been really frustrating to me that it seems to be completely random which shirts in the game can be tucked, and which can’t.
You don’t have the freedom like with real tops.
Full or halfway tucking can make any outfit a little neater and more put together. Half-tucking has become especially popular in recent years, as sort of a halfway point between super casual and lowkey formal.
Well nobody’s gonna mistake any of these for formalwear. But it’s a nice option!
These Simlish tees for female Sims come with lots of cool graphic icons.
They’re recolors of another creator’s tees, so you’ll have to grab the mesh for the originals (located in the description).
Then you’ll be all set with several great new tops with tucked and loose options for each one.
