Translating some legacies which are published on the Dutch SNW, exploring Spore, starting with The Sims 2 Apartment Life and nightshift at my work… it’s a very busy schedule.
But I have to update you all. At this moment the Hippie Legacy is translated for almost 80%. There are some parts of the original text, that require some knowledge of the game play in English. I normally play it in Dutch, like most of the Dutch Sims 2 gamers.
I already examined some of the other legacies to translate them very soon.
Spore … I am addicted already. My eldest son and I play it on one account, so in no-time we created all kinds of strange-looking carnivores, omnivores or herbivores.
When I first heard about Spore, I reacted a little timid. I wasn’t ready for an another Wright invention. I hardly could manage to play Simscity or The Sims, my favourite genre (Fantasy Role Playing Games) was put in a very far away corner. But … after the first pictures and the Demo Creature Creator, I fell in love with this new Maxis/EA product.
Apartment Life … Yes, I bought this one too. I finally had the time to install it, and some days ago I build my first apartments. It’s certainly an improvement, but my town River’s Hill is getting to small for my little Sims. So, last week the mayor of my Sims City decided that it was allowed to build in the new Sunny Valley. 
Finally, work. One of my co-workers had to go to the hospital, so we had to rearrange the rosters. So now I’m in my second row of nightshifts. For me it’s not a problem, but considering all the things I wanted to do this month, it’s a busy time …. But, no sweat, tomorrow starts October ….. a new month, why complaining …. 
Some days ago, after reading Rosana’s preview, I decided to buy the latest expansion, Apartment Life. Shame on me, I still haven’t got the time to install it. But, with six days off, I think I can manage to do this very soon.
The nicest thing I read, was the returning of magic in my Sims neighborhoods. Years ago, with The Sims, I created witches and magicians with Abracadabra. So now …. OMG … they are back!!!!
Not even played the new expansion, but my mind is going crazy. This will be just a perfect start for a new Legacy on SNW Int (and on the Dutch SNW too).
At this moment I am translating the Hippie Legacy, which is a hit on the Dutch SNW. During the pauses in translating, I am thinking about a new Legacy, called Bewitched.
The last one is about the new magical part of The Sims 2. And, it will be available on both forums. That means I am thinking and creating this legacy in my mother-language Dutch, as in English as well.
The main part is almost ready, but I have to install Apartment Life first to get the specifics. And there are more legacies on the Dutch SNW I would like to translate or publish on the International SNW. So be patient, they are coming…
More info SOON!
