To start, head over to the business section of your sim’s phone to secure a job. Choose preferred working hours, either an early morning shift from 5:30 to 7:30 or a night slot between 9:00 and 11:00.
Upon joining the career, sims are prompted to select a SimTuber avatar. This avatar serves as the face of your streaming persona, visible during all stream-related interactions. The High School Years pack includes streaming computers, though it’s noted that any computer in the game can facilitate the livestreaming of games like Crypt Creeper, enhancing both the video gaming and entrepreneurial skills of the sim.
As sims progress through their streaming career, they unlock new games to stream, such as the exclusive “Sims Infinite” and “Farming with Friends,” which allows for collaborations. Each promotion within this career not only increases the sim’s hourly wage but also unlocks new perks, such as the Golden Ultra Wide Pro computer.
An interesting feature of this career is the ability to “Raid Sims Chat,” similar to what you can do irl on Twitch.
Moreover, the entrepreneur skill plays a pivotal role in this career, opening up avenues for advertising streams and securing funding from angel investors, adding a layer of strategy to the gameplay. This skill development is not just for career advancement but also influences social interactions within the game.
For those without the expansion pack, the base game offers an alternative through the Tech Guru career, specifically the Esports Gamer branch, enabling sims to live stream and build a fanbase.
