Sims with the Pleasure Aspiration love wild nights out, cozy nights in, and what most Sims would consider "the good life". They'll want to use objects that provide them with fun and comfort, while avoiding activities that cause stress or equate to work of any kind. Kick their aspiration meters into platinum by pursuing their whims of the moment, as these Sims can change their tastes on a dime as they travel on their path to the ultimate life of luxury.

Pleasure

Pleasure is an Aspiration introduced in The Sims 2: Nightlife. Pleasure Sims typically want to do simple things for some fun. This Aspiration is a common combination of Romance and Popularity Aspirations, while still holding some significance of its own. Pleasure Sims like to gather and hang out with their friends, but they don't primarily want to be their best friends. They also like to go on dates and do some romance, but they don't have commitment issues like Romance Sims. Most activities they love are involved with Downtown. They are not hard to please, and enjoy just living life and having fun along the way.

Trivia[]

  • Pleasure Sims, similar to Romance Aspiration Sims, do not want to get married because they prefer to go on lots of dates. Unlike Romance Sims, however, marriage generally doesn't show up as a fear, and Pleasure Sims don't take an aspiration hit from it as Romance Sims typically do. In fact, some Pleasure Sims do roll Wants to get engaged and/or married, though this is rare.
  • Pleasure Sim who are employed will occasionally roll wants to miss work or even quit their jobs.
  • When using SimPE to change a Sim's aspiration, the Pleasure aspiration will be labeled as Fun.
  • Pleasure Sims sometimes roll wants to buy things like Fortune Sims except that they usually want to purchase things relating with entertainment.
  • Pleasure Sims, similar to Romance Sims, don't tend to get on well with Knowledge Sims, though it isn't always the case.
  • The lifetime want "Have 50 1st Dates" is likely a reference to the movie "50 First Dates" released in 2004.
  • The Sims 2: Nightlife prima guide page 13 mistakenly states that Pleasure Sims make good matches for Fortune Sims which is untrue.
