Playing on Wood R4 1.14.2, I get this result:
-Entertainment bar never goes up. Using anything makes it go down 3X, even if what your sim is doing is dancing or watching TV.
-Needs go down abnormally fast.
-Sleep need goes up abnormally slow.
I've only played 1 1/2 in-game days, and already my sim has peed herself and went to the hospital for hunger deprivation twice. After about 2 in-game hours, she was already complaining about her entertainment bar, which doesn't go up even if you use a TV or radio. All of her needs are abnormally low even when I've spent more than 5 in-game hours trying to raise them.
If I go to make my sim sleep, she ends up in the hospital for hunger deprivation. If I make my sim eat, her sleep deprivation is up to 100%. If I make her do anything, I end up being screwed over on all the other needs. Her mood bar is all the way gone after only one 24 hour period, as well.
This must be a radical form of anti-piracy. I've heard of a suxxors crack/patch, so I'm going to attempt to find that and try it, but somehow I'm finding myself doubting this is anything but the normal gameplay.
Also, my sim only has partial free will. Checked the settings, and free will was set to on.
