Sims 4 Needs and Motives: How To Keep Your Sims Happy And Alive
Just as you do in real life, the digital people who occupy the worlds of The Sims 4 have needs that have to be fulfilled, or else they won't be happy and something bad will probably happen. Potentially something really bad, like dying. Fortunately, meeting your sims' needs is not the most complex affair--our digital people aren't quite so complicated as real people are. Still, a little knowledge goes a long way, and you'll find more than a little knowledge below as we break down how needs work and how you can best address them, whether it be through activities your sim partakes in, or permanent lifetime rewards that allow you to ignore them entirely. Let's dive in.
Even sims gotta eat. Most of them, anyway.Table of Contents [hide]- The Sims 4 Needs listThe Sims 4 Needs listHunger
- Solution: eat food
- Related perks: Hardly Hungry and Forever Full
If your sim doesn't eat food, they'll get hungry. If they continue not eating food until their hunger gauge depletes entirely, they'll soon die from starvation or, if they're a child, be taken away by Child Protective Services and adopted by a different family. Because the stakes are pretty high with this one, hunger is the only need your sim has that absolutely has to be dealt with every time, because it's the only baseline need that is guaranteed to kill a sim if it's not addressed. So don't forget to make your sim eat.
There are two reward perks that will make dealing with hunger much, much easier. Hardly Hungry (4,000 reward points) will dramatically decrease the rate your hunger gauge depletes, and Forever Full (10,000 reward points) will make it so your hunger gauge will no longer deplete naturally.

Combat is one way to get your answers, but it’s often a better choice to charm, bribe, or interrogate your subjects. There’s no one way to navigate its challenges, making it excellent for multiple playthroughs.

Everything about Fortnite battle royale is different in the game's first-ever Star Wars season--just look at the new loot pool, which is entirely made up of energy weapons that don't use ammo, something Fortnite has never done before. Another fun quirk is that the story quests for Star Wars season don't hold your hand quite as much as the story quests usually do. In fact, the game doesn't even tell you what the quests are--it just mentions that there are quests, and puts a lot of circles on the updated map to indicate the general area where you can find them. Like this:
Completing this season's story quests requires a little more effort than usual.Since the quests are hidden, it can be tough to tell how many there even are or whether you've done everything that's currently available. If you're trying to be efficient with your leveling, trying to do these quests might be a little bit irritating. But don't worry, we've got all the details you need for this first round of seasonal storytelling.
Right now we have five story quests, none of which is very difficult or requires much time, and you can do them in any order you want, but you'll have to find them first. So let's go through them.

Another Fast & Furious movie is speeding into theaters next year, but this year you can take a trip down memory lane with the Lego 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline GT-R R34. Based on the supercar driven by Brian O’Conner (Paul Walker) in the 2003 film, it’s shaping up to be a must-have for Lego collectors and fans of the high-octane movies. Preorders are now open ahead of its release on June 1.
Lego 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 (1,410 pieces) $140 | Releases June 1This highly detailed model includes a 6-cylinder engine with moving pistons, three hidden NOS bottles, and a unique drift function that’s the first ever incorporated in a Lego Technic set. This will raise the car up from the ground, allowing you to recreate your favorite scenes from the movie.
The completed model is 16 inches long--so if you plan to use it as a display piece, be sure to clear plenty of space on your table or entertainment center. At 1,410 pieces, it should keep you busy for quite some time.
Preorder at Lego Lego 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline GT-R (R34)GalleryThe Lego Technic 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 is actually the second Lego set based on vehicle. There's also the smaller Lego Speed Champions version of the vehicle that's only 319 pieces. While it's a more compact and less detailed model compared to the upcoming Technic version, it's worth considering if you want a more casual build--especially while it's discounted to just $20 (normally $25) at Amazon.
The new 2 Fast 2 Furious Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 also isn’t the only 2 Fast 2 Furious Lego set arriving on June 1. If you want a companion for the new Nissan Skyline GT-R R34 set, check out the Lego Speed Champions Honda S2000 driven by Suki (Devon Aoki) in the movie. Just like its on-screen counterpart, the car sports a vibrant pink coat of paint and intricate interior details, and the set includes a minifigure of Suki. Preorders are available for $27.

Microsoft has announced the next big update for Halo Infinite, and it introduces one of the more absurd and over-the-top weapons we've ever seen in Halo's history.
Say hello to the Mutilator, a new brute force weapon featuring a double-barrel shotgun with a Gravity Hammer attached to the end of it. The gun shoots one shell at a time or players can leverage the alt-fire option to shoot two rounds at once. As for the Gravity Hammer element of the gun, Microsoft said, "If there's anything left to devastate, the hammer should finish the job." You can see the new weapon in action in this Halo Infinite video, beginning at 46:50. It looks pretty devastating.
The MutilatorMicrosoft created a dedicated mode to highlight the Mutilator, and it's called Mutilator Madness. It's a variant of the Juggernaut mode where a team of players square off against one super-powerful player.
