The Sims 4introduced players to a wide variety of emotions. Beforehand, it was only possible to see how a Sim felt by examining the color of the Plumbob over their head. With the latest entry inThe Simsseries, the Plumbob is still helpful to see how a Sim’s needs are doing, but they have actual emotions beyond their needs.
InThe Sims 4, there are many moods that are associated with certain activities and skills, as they provide helpful boosts, meaning that tasks will be completed more efficiently or that skills will increase faster. This guide will focus on the Energized emotion, and it’ll teach fans how they can get their Sims to feel this way and show them its advantages.
Energized Boosts
There are various reasons why players might want their Sim to feel Energized. There are two tasks in particular that go hand-in-hand with the Energized emotion inThe Sims 4:cleaning and exercising.
Whenever Sims are feeling Energized, they’ll clean with vigor, which makes them finish these tedious tasks faster. So, if a household has dirty counters and surfaces, too many dust bunnies lying around, or there is a lot to mop up, it’s time to get one of the residents energized so that they can quickly clean up the mess.
Additionally, theEnergized emotionboosts Fitness Skill-related activities, which means Sims will improve this skill much faster than they would normally. Players should make sure that their Sims take advantage of this emotion and go for an Energized Jog or Swim Energized Laps in the pool.
How to Get Energized
Sims can become Energized inThe Sims 4by accumulating several Energized moodlets. As they complete more energetic actions, they’ll start gaining these moodlets, and if there are more of them compared to other Emotion moodlets, the Sim will start feeling Energized.Players can boost a Sim’s Energized mood by making them drink coffee and having them take a brisk shower.
Sims with the Active trait are much more likely to get Energized randomly. Sims with the Kleptomaniac trait can also easily get Energized by stealing.
Since these tasks only give the Sim Energized moodlets, there’s no guarantee that the Sim will get the Energized emotion afterward, as they might have other intense moodlets active at the time.In order to immediately get a Sim Energized without fail, players can purchase the Energized Potion in theRewards Storefor 200 Satisfaction Points. It lasts three hours and turns Energized into a Sim’s main emotion.
The Sims 4is available now for PC, PS4, PS5, and Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S.
