Among the many many unearned stereotypes about millennials, the one unanimous fact is that we’re horrified by sudden telephone calls. And getting repeated sudden calls? Effectively I could select to chuck my telephone out a window. Maxis has harnessed that primal worry and introduced it to life within the guise of The Sims 4’s infamous “Ring Ring Woman”, now an official Sim you may obtain from the gallery and harbinger of a primary menu recreation replace.
The much reviled Ring Ring Woman has been on The Sims 4’s begin menu for some time, torturing gamers along with her adoring gaze each time they boot up. She could seem overbearing, obsessive even, however she was truthfully simply delivering real recommendation which you can verify your Sim’s telephone to get them a job or name their buddies.
Maxis rolled out a small recreation replace yesterday to overtake the sport’s begin menu and with it, unleashed Ring Ring Woman.
She’s in every single place. She’s calling you. Why aren’t you answering? Will not you simply take a look at your Sim’s telephone?
Clearly everybody observed Ring Ring Woman’s rise to prominence. Clearly they have been all horrified. Clearly they expressed their terror on Twitter and on Reddit.
Maxis doubled down on the Ring Ring Woman takeover and determined to supply her up as a downloadable Sim on the general public gallery. Her identify is Callia Maebey and he or she is erratic, self-absorbed, excessive upkeep, and aspires to be a pal to the world. Sure, she is a reference to a 2012 meme. She actually is the sunshine and darkish of millennial Simmers.
I briefly feared that gamers would give in to their worst instincts and begin tossing Ring Ring Woman into swimming pools with out ladders, nevertheless it seems Callia does not have to worry retribution. Choosing creation reasonably than destruction, Simmers have determined to provide her a makeover, deploying favourite hairstyles, fashions, and no scarcity of Sims 4 CC to make her vibe rather less, ah, intense.
